Are Subliminal Messages Illegal?

There is a lot of controversy surrounding subliminal messages right now. In the last couple of years they have been big news..

McDonalds were high profile a couple of years ago when they were caught flashing an advert for a split second during a cooking program on the Food Network. Shortly after George Bush was accused of using subliminal techniques during his election campaign and speeches.

These instances caused a public outcry at the time, but unfortunately little was done.

George Bush just ignored the allegations and eventually they went away, and McDonalds and the Food Network claimed it was just a programming error rather than a deliberate subliminal message. No further investigation ever followed either Bush or McDonalds - sadly.

It is clear that more should be done to monitor and control the use of subliminal messages and how they are used, but going back to the original question of whether they are actually illegal or not then:

No subliminal messaging isn't illegal.

They are not allowed to be used within tv, radio, or any kind of advert in the way that you can't use purely subliminal sounds, or flashing subliminal images or text.

But things get a little more complicated when considering a "subliminal suggestion".. A subliminal suggestion is usually an image which with just a passing glance you wouldn't notice anything, but on further investigation there is a subliminal link - usually linking a product to sex within the mind of the consumer. Typical examples of this can include somehow blending the word "sex" within the background of the advert, or something as simple as having a beautiful girl holding the product - Pepsi often use this female imagery for example, even down to the very fact that their bottles are shaped to model the body of a beautiful woman.
