From Steve:
"Health magazines are owned by supplement makers. Drug companies sponsor TV news programs. People retire from the FDA to take up lucrative positions in the pharmaceutical industry, sometimes after owning stock in the companies whose drugs they were responsible for approving. I’m not suggesting every agenda is negative or evil… just that accuracy isn’t always the #1 concern."
I agree, accuracy isn't the # 1 concern. But please provide evidence that "People retire from the FDA to take up lucrative positions in the pharmaceutical industry, sometimes after owning stock in the companies whose drugs they were responsible for approving." If that's true, OK, but if you're going to make accusations, I want proof. Name your sources.
