[P1] truth in advertising

[Tom R. no spam]

I was going to write something here, but the comments at the
bottom of the url (for the story BJM started this post by
referring to) seem to cover all possible interpretations,
so why not just read those and chose the ones we like?  I
myself like the "Sure is a lot of overinterpretation going
on here" variations.

The quote below sounds to me like just some writer's idea of
how to fill some lines, get some feedback energy which can then
be used to convince his/her boss he/she's popular; none of the
facts cited support his/her overinterpretaion.  IMHO, of course.
