But it obviously is, this is the whole point of advertising, and why advertising messages don't focus on information but on emotions. This is why many things are not allowed to advertise in many countries (not only topics like cigarette or alcohol but also form of advertisings), and why advertising is regulated. Political advertising on the other hand should be much MUCH more regulated because they can cause major market disruptions. A brand advertising can maybe change one very specific market for some time, but political advertising can change the WHOLE market for a very long period. To be honest I don't even understand how it is even a debate given how the US democracy is completely failing to tackle that particular issue.
