They might not be up to skullduggery (love that word!) but the mfg. of
the merchandise might be. It's not really QVC's problem if a product
doesn't perform as advertised. (Not saying the Ninja is defective.)
They're just the go-between.

I'm thinking of the infomercials for the green pan or Orgreenic or
whatever it is called. Someone in marketing departments across America
suddenly decided everyone should latch onto the word "green". That will
surely make consumers feel they're doing something better for the
planet, right? Yeah, sure! <G>
