That’s from an ABCNews.com story on payday lending.  It’s a lengthy piece and relatively fair and balanced compared to most stories.   The Payday Pundit’s favorite passage:

“If bounced check fees were $10 [instead of $35], this industry wouldn’t exist,” he {Industry spokesman Steven Schlein} said. “If banks and credit unions made small loans, this industry wouldn’t exist. For many people, this is absolutely the only way to get a $300 loan.”
