Publishers Clearing House (PCH) was a competitor to American Family Publishers that ran similar sweepstakes. The two companies were often mistaken for each other. Many believe, incorrectly, that Ed McMahon was the spokesperson for PCH. Star Search host Ed McMahon worked for only American Family Publishers according to a 1992 interview [7].
