Comments:
To Whomever concerned, I would like Telemarketers and half hour long informercials banded. I was glad when the do not call registry came out. There are people who use the telemarketing industry to scame old people out of their money. 1983 I worked one week at an telemarketer asking for donations for the "FOP" and the person standing over us told us not to take no for an answer. I was not paid for my time. I would like NO calls from telemarketers automated or live. Please keep the do not call list in tact. Also the informercials should be restricted to home shopping networks. I don't have cable nor a satalite reciever, therefore, I'm forced to watch informercials on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Sometimes the same informercial will be running on three channels at the same time. I'm sick of the guy with the licra shorts ant the ponytail selling the "Gezzel", and the phony cheif selling knives and food processers. Thank You Paul Whitson
