Interesting language there.

Headline: Ads Blamed - pretty damned definitive, it's obviously all the ads' fault.

Article: Advertising may be contributing - much more realistic, that ads may be a part of the problem.

The ads are targetted at the kids so they tell mom and dad to get it for them. It's been that way since the advent of commercial tv.
It's up to the parents to put the brakes on. If your kid is overweight and you keep feeding him junk, the kid is going to get keep getting fat.
The advertisers aren't going to stop. The responsibility lies with the parents.
