Suit seeks to stop Kellogg from targeting kids
A consumer group wants to keep Tony the Tiger from promoting sugary cereals on the SpongeBob SquarePants cartoon show, or anywhere else kids are watching.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest on Wednesday announced legal action to try to stop the Kellogg Co., maker of cereals like Frosted Flakes, and Nickelodeon cable network Viacom Inc., from marketing junk food to children.
The food nazis never sleep. I found this curious:
The planned lawsuit in Massachusetts is the latest attempt to use the courts to try to battle the growing obesity crisis in the United States.
Obesity crisis? I can't decide whether this hyperbole is just to garner attention to the article, or whether it is leftist cover language for forcing more nanny-state intervention in people's lives.
