There is a CLEAR VIOLATION of those policies by a group called "Specialized Fitness and Nutrition" which has a program (made in 2012 at Harlem Week Festival) which is a blatant "informercial" for a commercial service.
Given the many rumors about staff being "paid off" "under the table" that surfaced this week at the producers meeting, I wonder if there is some sort of payment involved in the presentation of this program. I have seen it transmitted several times. Why hasn't the staff outlawed this obvious violation of MNN content rules??
