This is an artical taken from the Guardian about junk food advertising and the possibility of it being banned on childrens T.V. Its quite reliable as its relatively recent article written in 2007 by a women called Helen Pidd. She has been a reporter for the Guardian for 4 years and was previously a commissioning editor on G2. She had written the article after attending a Conference on Marketing on children so has some first hand information on this topic.

This is also another article taken from another paper called the Independent. It talks about the government cracking down on television and internet advertising and their new " moves to protect youngsters from the "comercialisation" and sexualisation of childhood. Again it is reasonably reliable as its relatively recent article from 2007, written by a man called Brian Brady.

This was found on a website called Media Awareness Network. It talks about how marketers target kids. It goes through many strategies companies use and depend on to sell their product. Seeing as it's a Media website we would hope that its reliability is reasonable good as they should know what they are talking about it. They have also written many other pages about advertising and is a very recent website.
