Scott,

As a general rule, anything coming over the Business Wire must be very skeptically received as being promotional rather than factual.

I don't doubt the words at the bottom of the message that the serve 50 TV news organizations. What would that mean though? For instance would my little podunk town TV station paying a couple bucks per report be a "news organization"?

I'm wondering if I'm seeing puffery where there is something else. Or is SurveyUSA something we need to remain vigilant about and consider to be a less than bona fide source of information.

We all know that TV is the main propaganda tool of the corporados and the Bushistas. Why does SurveyUSA not list any print media as clients? Isn't this a huge red flag?
