| Several Western
countries have also put restrictions on cigarette advertising.
In the United States, all television advertising of tobacco
products has been prohibited since 1971.
In Australia, the Tobacco Advertising Prohibition Act 1992
prohibits tobacco advertising in any form, with a very small
number of exceptions (some international sporting events were
accepted, but these exceptions were revoked in 2006). Other
countries have legislated particularly against advertising that
appears to target minors.
