Misleading Programming

If the Reno tourny airs on Versus, the viewer will be led to believe they are watching the biggest money tournament in pool history. They will even get to see $500K in cash presented to Efren at the end. All sponsored by Natural Cures.

Little will they know that the players didn't get paid, and ultimately had to settle for 1/3 of the money in installments (if they ever get paid at all.)

This deception is typical of KT's programming, and an embarrassment to those of us who love the game.
 
Talk about misleading... after the announcement of the the Chicago "postponement" I went to the website.... I did a screen shot. You tell me, what do you see FIRST, and how hard do you have to look to see the "meat" of the info? Can you say "Where's the beef"?

KT was banned from infomercials. This is a way for him to cash in on another form of deceptive programming.

I just can't believe he can get away with this.

But, he probably will.

I keep hearing this, but I keep seeing him in the middle of the night shilling for Natural Cures.

Is there a regional thing with this "ban"? Because he is alive and well and on TV in Indiana.

He was banned from selling products, particularly health related, on television. Except for books or information products, which are covered under the 1st Amendment (freedom of speech, don't ya know). He was not banned from infomercials.

Well, here in Florida, his Natural Cures infomercial run all the time on many cable channels, but he doesn't SELL his two books. He gives the books away Free, but you have to pay the Shipping & Handling by credit card. And then your problems begin...

Everytime someone says they are going to give me something for free, my first question is, "How much will it cost?".
