"We paid $3 billion for these television stations. We will decide what the news is. The news is what we tell you it is."
......said by station manager, David Boylan, at Fox News.
Sounds like an interesting way to present the news, eh? Well, this post is about the Monsanto-Fox news scandal that you have probably heard me speak of. In summary, this is what happened:
At Fox news, a few reporters uncovered some facts about cows that have been injected with Bovine growth hormones. These hormones cause them to produce an unnatural amount of milk. Studies showed that this milk could be carcinogenic (cancer causing). When the reporters wanted to air the story, Fox news stopped them. The rest of the story contains bribes, lies, and court hearings. Please read some of the info on these links for the fuller story. Oh, and yes, they still sell this milk in the U.S.

Oh, and don’t worry about our milk. Health Canada has never approved Bovine to be used in our cows, although many are pressuring them to do so.
