EA Stops Casino Advertising

Officials from Electronic Arts have confirmed that the company will no longer run advertisements for online casinos on its websites. The decision follows similar recent announcements from companies such as Google, Yahoo, Discovery Networks and Clear Channel Communications. These moves follow a federal investigation into the activities of American companies that do business with offshore Internet casinos. The US Justice Department has argued that such companies might be aiding and abetting the casinos, which are considered illegal operations under federal law. Source: The New York Times
