Maker of many infomercials.
Since I don't watch TeeVee, I was certainly not aware of that. But having been told, I will be sure to avoid products from those companies in the future.

You gotta wonder what kind of person would sit through a bleach infomercial. I mean, you could get an acceptable bike ride in the time wasted on Clorox TeeVee.
