12. And don't forget what corporate media did to squelch reports on rBGH
Remember Steve Wilson and Jane Akre? They were the investigative reporters from a Florida TV station who were all set to broadcast a report linking rBGH in milk to a possible rise in cancer cases. But FOX News owned that station, and Monsanto (creators of rBGH) had its lawyers send a fax to FOX News warning that the story must not air. So Wilson and Akre got screwed around by the station manager at the FOX affiliate until they got fired for refusing to knuckle under.
