FTC Files Brief - First Amendment Protection Is not Available for POM’s Allegedly Misleading Claims
"As, according to the FTC, POM’s ads were misleading, POM’s First Amendment argument fails; false and misleading claims are not protected. The FTC acknowledges that First Amendment protection is available to potentially misleading claims that could be presented in a non-misleading manner by adding an effective disclaimer. However, this case does not concern future potentially misleading claims but past claims that, according to the FTC, were actually misleading, despite disclaimers or disclosures. "

Makes me wonder how any of this might be related to the Cato Institute brief filed on behalf of Kevin Trudeau

Re: FTC Files Brief - First Amendment Protection Is not Available for POM’s Allegedly Misleading Claims
One wonders if the the Trudeau and POM cases were the "straw that broke the camels' back" so to speak and lead to the launching of "Operation Failed Resolution"
IM(very)HO, there definitely needs to be a line drawn in the sand before peoples' health takes a back seat in all of these legal arguments.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing
