I'm talking about those who continually commit FCC broadcast law violations.

(Like lying about consumer products for personal profit and dispensing false
medical "information" , thus making people sick or even die!)

Since you're so cock-sure this stuff is against the law, please give an exact
citation of the laws you think these people are breaking.


It's not the FCC, but the Federal Trade Commission, which has jurisdiction. 15 USC
Sec. 52. http://www.ftc.gov/temp/chapter_2.htm#Sec.%2052

The entire section is http://www.ftc.gov/temp/chapter_2.htm, as you might expect.

Nonetheless, if claims made in radio advertising are deceptive or false, they are
illegal, so to that that degree the writer is correct..

There must always be the appearance of lawfulness....especially when the law's being
broken.
