I say follow the money. If springer and Povich were not profitable, they
would not be on the air.
Then again, that's capitalism in a free market.


So Platt, how is povich and springer products differ from those Wall-Mart
dolls out every day?
Both substandard wouldn't  you say?
Both driven by the Mercantile attitude?
