80s Toy commercial laws

Someone needs to explain this to me WTF did Regan change ?

At first i was thinking that toys can not be based on cartoons. however then I remembered there being Star Wars toys and smurf toys.

WTF did Regan change them ? What was it then ? What made Transformers and He-man possible ?

How would Reagan have handled the Ukrainian crisis?

Basically he deregulated laws for advertising to children.. networks before would have to limit how much advertising they gave kids through commercials. This happened because a Hot Wheels cartoon in ‘69 upset both a rival toy company that bought air time and the FCC, so the network had to count the shows airtime as advertising time. Naturally this ate up a lot of ad revenue, so while the show was successful, it kept other toy companies from making toy cartoons. Then Reagan did away with it, giving us the 30 minute toy com

Interesting however it answers nothing.

Explain the logic to me:
>Star Wars movie is made
>Gets toys
>This is Ok

Same for smurfs etc.

VS
> ????
> This is illegal !

I do not get it. The article talks about advertising to children (something every adult knows is bad). HOWEVER explain to me what was so illegal or what Reagan made possible. All these people imply that shows who are basically toy commercials like Transformers where made possible by him or something ?

The 80s transformers is literally nonsense that actively runs on anti-logic so it is a toy commercial pretending to be a show. So is 80s He-Man etc....

What did Reagan change ? The article says he removed the regulation about the length of toy commercials however these shows where not toy commercials or what ?

Star Wars got toys after the fact and wasn’t licensed out by a toy company, also besides the holiday special didn’t get a childrens tv show until after the law was changed.

Interesting, interesting. I understand now.
However how did this make transformers etc cartoons possible ?

>so the network had to count the shows airtime as advertising time.
How was this even established ? I mean they did have batman in 1966 so Live action batman cartoon OK and not a commercial (toys sold for batman in stores) however this other thing bad ?

What is the logic here ?

Or is it classical nonsense laws.
>Microsoft monopoly REEEE, government says this
>However chrome not monopoly. Government says this

Is there any logic behind this ?

My bad. What about the 1966 batman or the Super friends ?

>ct and wasn’t licensed out by a toy company
So is it this technicality ?
Oh no I own a toy company and can not license a toy brand for TV. However my brother owns a animation studio and he made this new cartoon, that we simply decided to start production of toys when he was making the cartoon and he consulted me on the character designs etc so that we can manufacture the toys easily.

100% legal !

Was this scenario legal ?

I'm trying to understand the laws here.

>I'm trying to understand the laws here.
There's your mistake. If you think laws have objective applicability, that the legal system is founded on justice and objective arbitration, or that there's any kind of guarantee of anything, you fucked up.
It's all just a masquerade hiding the truth no one wants to accept: the powerful will manipulate the laws and you will accept it because you have no power. Your vote is worthless the moment your masters can't use it to their own ends.

See:

Was there any logic behind it ? Or did all these commentators suck Reagans dick for nothing ?

if you dare to stick to these toy ads, I have a great nostalgia with them

The laws were that the toy company couldn't be the owner of both the show and the toys. You could license toys after the fact but you couldn't make a show as an advertisement vehicle for your toys

>What about the 1966 batman or the Super friends ?
Those aren't toys.

Probably used drug money from the contra to pay for the Ukrainian resistance.

Are you just pretending to be retarded?

It meant you could make the entire programming schedule nothing but blatant, cheap ads.

Based Reagan.
Like, 10 years ago my country's lefty government made it illegal to target commercials at children. It basically killed cartoon blocks and kids were forced to stick to the internet for fun.

>WTF did Regan change
Regan changed nothing. You're thinking of Reagan, his boss.
