NBC CHASTISED FOR INVOLVEMENT IN WSWA SURVEY

The latest twist in the WSWA’s controversial study has been a backlash directed at the NBC nightly news team. The Specialty Wine Retailers Association (SWRA) sent a letter yesterday to Brian Williams and the NBC crew calling the segment’s case study in underage internet ordering a “sham.”

“It was a criminal sham and those who authorized it should be prosecuted,” wrote the SWRA.
