aside from the fact that gambling advertisement might be banned for certain countries across the world its also probably due to the fact that advertising on TV will not give the gambling sites themselves targeted audience.
I think TV are mostly just some people try to enjoy shows not betting, quite opposite if we are talking sports, its quite effective thats why in football matches the gambling ads are everywhere because its targeted audiences I think because surely in every match some people want to gamble.
On the contrary I think TV advertisement is the biggest for gambling companies. TV has wider converage and easier to access. Most gambling companies would like to throw up their adverts on the screen, some adverts just go pass the screen while program is on while some pay for full time for their adverts to be showcased from time to time, daily or weekly.
So if a gambling company is ban from running adverts on TV then it is a big disadvantage from my observation
It is true that TV ads will give them a wider coverage, but at the same time the costs of TV ads are very high and this can have a substantial effect on the finances of a company, take a look at what happened with tobacco, during the 80’s there was a strong campaign to ban ads all over the world, and while tobacco companies thought this will be the end of them, in fact their revenue increased as now they did not had to spend a fortune on those ads, so it is possible such a ban could be a silver lining instead.
With having the current technology on what we do have today on which when it comes to accesibility or on how fast information could really be passed on then TV are somewhat already that gradually going into that irrelevant side. Why? We do have mobile phone nowadays and as long you do have the internet connection then you are really that connect to online world on which it wont really be shocking nor surprising that they would really be making themselves getting aware with those potential ads and other things that they could be able to see online.
This is why as a parent it is really that a huge challenge on trying out to scope up on everything on what your children is doing. This is why it would really be always best that
you should really be telling them about the cons and negative effects when dealing up with gambling. Its normal that there would be ads on TV
on which we know that exposure and ads is really just that normal or typical on business to have.
