After Losing a Court Ruling, The Sugar Industry Keeps Spreading Misinformation
2013-10-18 10:43:55| Sugar Industry News
WASHINGTON, Oct. 17, 2013 -- /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A federal court in California recently ruled that a lawsuit seeking to hold The Sugar Association responsible for perpetuating myths and confusion about high fructose corn syrup will proceed. The suit, a counterclaim filed by member companies of the Corn Refiners Association, who were originally sued by The Sugar Association and its members in 2011, alleges that the sugar industry's trade group engaged in a campaign to denigrate HFCS and confuse consumers by spreading misinformation that is not backed by credible science. On September 16, a federal judge ruled that the counterclaim and a related "unclean hands" defense would go forward, denying sugar industry's motions to strike and dismiss.

Dish wins court ruling against ABC over ad-free TV box
2013-09-19 09:09:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) US pay-TV provider Dish Network has won a court ruling against broadcaster ABC, allowing it to continue to offer the PrimeTime Anytime and AutoHop features on its Hopper box. ABC had asked the court the block the use of the Hopper box, claiming it limited the company's ability to generate advertising revenue, threatening its business. The Hopper allows users to access content from the four major networks in the US for up to eight days after broadcast, as well as skip ads when viewing the recorded material. The ruling was issued by Judge Laura Swain of the Southern District of New York, US District Court. This is the third federal court decision that has sided with Dish on the right for TV viewers to skip commercials, Dish said.
