View Full Version : Investigating Timmy
Rochen 11-24-2002, 02:37 PM In the UK we have a TV program called Watchdog (http://www.bbc.co.uk/lifestyle/watchdog/). It’s basically a consumer program that goes about investigating scams – whether it be individuals, charities, multi nationals or small businesses.
I am just wondering if there is a similar program in the US that we could possibly report Timmy to and have them on his back for a month or so.
Just an idea however it would be cheaper than a lawsuit, he can be any age to be investigated, it would sure warn people and it may well make his parents listen.

Local news channels, as someone else mentioned would love this. Try investigative news shows, too. (20/20, Primetime, Dateline, etc.)

The Laughing Cow 11-24-2002, 07:35 PM Heh I just missed out on being on Watchdog a couple of years ago. I complained about BTinternet when they were the first free 24/7 fixed fee ISP, something about not being able to connect IIR. They emailed me and said to call them, so I gave the researcher a call when I got back from school (a few years back now) and she said I just missed it and they got someone else on it :(
