It only affects BROADCAST advertising. Not internet or print ads or announcements of any other kind.

And the above, is exactly how freedoms are lost. We "only" look at concretes, rather than the philosophical premise, which is clearly in error. Point is: doesn't matter what aspects are being targeted, government is BARRED FROM REGULATING SPEECH, and advertising, issue advertising, internet, print, broadcast, etc. etc. are all forms of speech.
