TV ads for cigarettes are not legal in the US at least. And alcohol ads have a bunch of weird regulations like they can’t show people in the act of drinking (holding the booze is fine).

that's what illegal means.
I think you mean regulated. At best you could say ads showing people drinking alcohol are banned, but alcohol ads in general are regulated.
