The White House drug policy office must be identified as a sponsor of public service announcements aired free on TV under FCC rulings. The policy creates a swap: for each dollar of purchased anti-drug time, networks provide equal free time for other topics, benefiting over 50 nonprofits including the Alliance for Youth and Girl Scouts. The Ad Council reviews proposed ads, with the campaign costing nearly $1 billion over five years.
