Regulation Of Misleading Commercial Speech
The State of Missouri passes a law prohibiting commercial establishments from using misleading advertisements. If this law is challenged in court, it will most likely be:
AUpheld, because the government has a compelling interest in regulating advertisements.
BUpheld, provided that the law is limited to false and misleading advertisements.
CUpheld, because commercial speech is not protected by the First Amendment.
DStruck down, because advertisements are a form of speech and laws regulating speech violate the First Amendment.
