Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Why even let massive corporations get away with false advertising? If they show the pumpkin have a face on the cover, they better have a face on the actual thing. You're just decenticized to being fucked around by corporations that you're defending them for lying to you.

Based on the number of downvotes I'm getting, I'm apparently supposed to empathize with a woman with the time and financial resources to finance a frivolous candy lawsuit instead of reporting it to the FTC .
Here's a little preview of how badly she will have her ass handed to her in court, and this case arguably does involve harm to consumers: https://edition.cnn.com/2023/10/04/business/wendys-mcdonalds-false-advertising-lawsuit/index.html
