Its mandate is to “hold national advertising across all media types to high standards of truth and accuracy by reviewing truth-in-advertising challenges from business, trade associations, consumers, or on its own initiative.” In 2023, the NAD closed 26% more false advertising cases than the year before. In the second of two episodes digging into false advertising claims, host Shahin Rothermel and her guest, Venable partner Claudia Lewis, discuss how marketers can reduce the risk of a competitor challenge, and what to do if you believe your competitors’ advertising is violating the law.
