FTC moves to curb advertising claims by Litton microwave ads

The FTC alleges Litton Industries deceived buyers with a survey claiming independent service technicians favored Litton ovens. Litton says an outside firm conducted the study with eligible technicians, while the agency asserts Litton employees designed and analyzed it. The ads from 1976 and 1977 compared Litton with Amana GE Magic Chef and Sharp. The commission seeks substantiation rules for future ads. Also noted is the 1968 Supreme Court ruling striking down the Lindbergh kidnapping death penalty provision.
