You would think that, of all companies, these three would have known better than to take money from illegal internet gambling operations. The bulk of the money paid in fines will go to public service announcements.
The companies were accused of receiving money from online gambling businesses to advertise illegal betting from 1997 through 2007. As part of the settlement, the companies will pay cash to the U.S. government and provide millions of dollars worth of public service advertisements informing young adults and teenagers that Internet gambling is illegal.
