Sue with Us, Lawyers say with Marketing Push about Rent-Way
Associated Press Wires. November 8, 2000

_________________________________________________________________________

Excerpt: "The click of a computer mouse is now enough to join a multimillion dollar lawsuit.

Lawyers put marketing into overdrive following an announcement late last month that Rent-Way Inc., an Erie based chain that is the nation's second largest renter of appliances and furniture, found fake entries in its books.

The first bid for clients for class action securities lawsuits hit the Internet Wire, a clearinghouse for business news, just 99 minutes after Rent-Way admitted on Oct. 30 that falsehoods its employees uncovered might reduce this year's earnings by $25 million."
