Telemarketer Kevin Trudeau taking on FTC after being banned from health product infomercials

Banned by the Federal Trade Commission from producing health product infomercials, Kevin Trudeau has now sued the agency over a press release it issued about the ban. Among other things, Trudeau and his lawyer say, the press release insinuates that he is barred him from all infomercials, when, in fact, he will be legally promoting a new book -- titled "Natural Cures 'They' Don't Want You to Know About" -- on television in the coming days.

Kevin Trudeau deserves tremendous credit for standing his ground and marketing lifesaving health information, despite attempts by the FTC (and the powers that be) to censor his work. The FDA, no doubt, would love nothing better than to have Trudeau off the air. Why? Because he's teaching people how to get well and reverse diseases. And that means drug companies lose paying customers. To Big Pharma, there's no profit in wellness.
