[tylerdee]

If you surf around the Internet as much as I do, you've surely seen some of these "offers" described in this article. I was surprised to find out that it's basically 3 major networks that are responsible for most of these scams. Glad to see the Senate jumping in and taking the reigns on this thing.

1. What deception?

...reading this constitutes agreement to the membership of our safe reader plan. The reader thereby agrees to the $50 a year subscription price, which is the first month for $50, 11 months for free. If any time during the year the subscriber wishes to cancel, he may do so paying the full price for any partial months used.

2. You mean like a propaganda channel using "Fair and Balanced"?

That's about as deceptive as you get!
