Comments on: CPSIA, kids’ resale and the Times, cont’d https://www.overlawyered.com/2009/07/cpsia-kids-resale-and-the-times-contd/ Chronicling the high cost of our legal system Mon, 13 Jul 2009 16:17:08 +0000 hourly 1 By: Quentin Compson https://www.overlawyered.com/2009/07/cpsia-kids-resale-and-the-times-contd/comment-page-1/#comment-54075 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 04:12:44 +0000 http://overlawyered.com/?p=12210#comment-54075 The CPSIA story gained traction in the conservative media. That’s two strikes right there. Coverage of the story would make the Democratic Congress look bad. Strike three. Ergo, it’s not news.

Or do they just not know any better?”

Most likely it’s just the influence from DC politicians and or lobbyists, but there could also be some direction from the NSA, CIA, Pentagon, and whatever other agencies have their thumbs in that paper…not to mention whatever Big Toy corporations advertise in it.

(heavy sarcasm here for readers) Is that even newsworthy during our recession? (thick sarcasm now) Apparently not to New York Times. But the fact people don’t want to buy $200 toys from expensive boutiques is. Just wait until there are no more specialty boutiques and only mass produced toys from China being imported in the big box stores ….then CPSIA will be newsworthy.

And for them, CPSIA is probably old news, a done deal.
