"Tobacco companies that marketed “light” cigarettes may be sued for fraud, the Supreme Court ruled on Monday in a 5-to-4 decision that will bolster dozens of lawsuits claiming billions of dollars in damages."If you failed on a diet, then, because of their big lies, diet programs, diet gurus (there are many), Big Sick Care, Big Media, Oprah, etc., should be next, IMHO.
"They sought compensation for economic rather than medical harm. They claimed, in other words, that they had overpaid for cigarettes based on deceptive advertisements suggesting that “light” cigarettes were safer than regular ones; they did not seek money for injuries caused by smoking itself."Clearly, failed dieters have suffered economic harm and were the victims of deceptive advertising.
The harm likely includes, among other things, the costs of books, programs, foods, drugs and surgeries after failure to lose weight.
Read this complaint to the FTC re: the deceptive advertising practices in which Oprah and Bob Greene engage, IMHO.
If you believe that you were a victim of their Big Lie Diet (or any other diet), then act by, at the very least, sending a complaint to the FTC. It can be done over the internet.
Stop being a victim.
