Fines 'R' Us

The Federal Communications Commission may fine toy retailer Toys 'R' Us $248,000 for "willfully and repeatedly" violating a requirement that they place a label on analog-only TV sets warning consumers that they will not be able to receive signals on them from February. The FCC said that it had issued eight warnings to the toy chain warning that labels in large type must be prominently displayed next to all analog-only sets. The commission also proposed a fine of $216,000 against another retailer, Value City, which had previously received two warning notices.
