A federal judge rejected a government bid to force firms to buy ad space to warn of a dangerous household trouble light. The order enjoins 37 companies from manufacturing or selling the light and requires repurchase of returned units. The judge credited national news coverage with warnings and limited extra reports to 10 weekly return tallies. 186000 units were sold. A Florida fatality is linked to the light’s design.
