Line 1:
{{trope}}
If a commercial requires a disclaimer, usually for legal reasons, the people creating the ad will put it at the bottom of the screen in tiny, low-contrast text using a hard-to-read [[Useful Notes/Fonts|font]], and then [[Unreadably Fast Text|leave it up for only a split second]].
In theory this is so that the viewers won't be distracted from their desire to buy the product by any nagging doubts the content of the disclaimer might raise.
Line 8:
For the radio equivalent, where disclaimers are read inhumanly fast, see [[Rattling Off Legal]].
See also [[Read the Fine Print]], [[Unreadably Fast Text]].
