A NY judge enjoined DirecTV Mon from using in any Time Warner Cable market certain linear and online ads alleging its HD picture quality beats TWC’s. The judge sided with TWC, which had asserted false advertising, deceptive business practices and breach of contract claims against the satcaster, on specific ads featuring Jessica Simpson and William Shatner; it will still allow DirecTV ads purporting better overall picture quality.
