I hate radio "fast-talk"

The only thing I don't like about the fast-talk legal disclaimers at the end is, a lot of times, they say it all so quickly that you can't actually understand what they're saying. It's not the same as a commercial on TV because you can read the print (though they usually tend to put it in small letters easily lost in the background). So if someone does something wrong because they couldn't understand the whole disclaimer because it was read too fast, the people who put out the advertisement can still say "Hey, we put the disclaimer out there, we're not liable for [insert problem here]."

I would have thought that by now in a civil suit that disclaimer would be proven not to disclaim anything because of the speed and tone it is delivered in. Just as fine print is attacked for being too fine.
