Sharp TVs Break Electromagnetic Emission Rules

Sharp has announced that television sets bearing its name broke US rules on Electromagnetic Emissions

As well as accusing the Hisense-made TV sets of breaking emission guidelines, Sharp said the devices also broke Federal Trade Commission rules on pictures sizes and did not meet wider industry standards covering device safety.

Sharp's legal papers said its brand was at risk of being "destroyed" by the "shoddily manufactured" TV sets by the time the five-year deal [with Hisense] ended.
