Well tut, tut, New York Times

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Wants to Ban Drug Ads on TV. It Wouldn’t Be Easy.

If Mr. Kennedy wins Senate confirmation to become health secretary and pushes to ban drug ads, he could find allies among doctors.…He could also find common cause with Americans who love to complain about pharma ads on their screens.

That would be me. I love to complain about pharma ads on my screens. I love to complain a lot. 

And as you, New York Times, should know, there are already plenty of laws that apply to advertising practices. How easy was that?

I disagree with Bobby Jr. on a whole lot of things, but not on this.
