Another Fake Blog Shuts Down


Following on the heels of the Wal-Mart fake blog scandal, another Fake Blog ("or Flog"), this time run by a Sony PR contractor called Zapatoni, has shut down. The deceptive blog resided at the domain alliwantforxmasisapsp.com

What the hell are these people thinking? It's definitely time for the Federal Trade Commission to start busting practitioners of this kind of deceptive advertising.
