One of the first things that George W. Bush did when he took office was to pack every possible federal agency with industry hacks.

Those industry insiders were more concerned with helping their former employers by approving deadly drugs than they were with protecting the public’s safety. Mike Papantonio discusses the latest in a long line of dangerous drugs that have been approved by our still-industry-friendly FDA with attorneys Ned McWilliams and Roger Denton.
