Excerpt
Before: Edwards, Chief Judge, Ginsburg and Tatel, Circuit Judges. Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge Tatel. Tatel, Circuit Judge: Petitioner, a consumer reporting agency, sells lists of names and addresses to target marketers-- companies and organizations that contact consumers with offers of products and services. The Federal Trade Commission determined that these lists were consumer reports under the Fair Credit Reporting Act and thus could no longer be sold for target marketing purposes. Challenging this determination, petitioner argues that the Commission's decision is unsupported by substantial evidence and that the Act itself is unconstitutional. Because we find both arguments without merit, we deny the petition for review.
