We live in a litigious society. Perhaps my favorite manifestation of this litigation and liability-aversion is the bold type font announcement on my jar of peanut butter – immediately below an ingredient list that obviously starts with peanuts. That announcement?
Contains Peanuts. Apparently a person in this day-and-age couldn’t reasonably be expected to know that peanut butter would contain peanuts.
Keeping this litigiousness in mind, over the past 11 months of the pandemic I have consumed slightly more regular television programming than I otherwise would. Normally, my television consumption, outside of live sporting events, involves little or no viewing of commercials. Either I watch video on demand or channels without commercials, or I record shows and fast-forward past the commercials.
