> misleading and inauthentic speech to make money

Isn't that just "marketing"?

Marketing cannot be misleading, otherwise it is definitionally false advertising, which is illegal.

Marketing is always misleading. It just can't be overly misleading.

I really don’t think that’s true. When I get a 50% off coupon in the mail, I am expecting it to work as stated and it pretty much always does.

Yeah but whey you order food it never looks quite as good as the picture in the menu.
