Brian Bowen Smith/E! Entertainment(NEW YORK) — Are the Kardashians illegally bombarding you with advertising? One group says yes, and wants something done about it.
The consumer watchdog group Truth in Advertising says the Keeping Up with the Kardashians clan is illegally advertising stuff on social media. It’s documented over 100 Instagram posts that it says should have been marked sponsored or paid for.
It claims Kylie Jenner had the “most problem posts” among the family members.
It’s given the family a week to take those posts down, or else it’ll ask the Federal Trade Commission to open an investigation.
Since the Truth in Advertising letter to the family was posted, some of the offending Instagram pictures have been altered to make clear they are ads.
