PUCO Drops Complaints Against Utilities Ads
The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio dismissed two complaints about Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric and Cleveland Electric Illuminating advertising. The suit, filed in 1976 by Ohioans for Utility Reform and state Sen. Michael Schwarzwalder, argued bans on political and promotional ads and challenged taxpayer-funded advertising. The PUCO noted corporate political advertising rights, per Supreme Court precedent, and said prohibitions require showing harm to public welfare.
