Judge Rules for Cav. Daily in ABC Suit

A federal judge yesterday ruled in favor of the Cavalier Daily in the matter of accepting alcohol advertising, the AP reports. Both UVa and Virginia Tech’s Collegiate Times had been barred from accepting any advertising promoting alcohol under state law. The Virginia American Civil Liberties Union argued on their behalf, demonstrating that not only is the restriction unconstitutional, but that there was simply no evidence that it has any impact on alcohol consumption. Advertising revenue at the papers should climb accordingly.

    I wonder if they can advertise cigarettes, another legal product? I doubt they would for fear of all of the future class action lawsuits.
