before they put it
on the marketplace.

:19:03
The longest test they
did for human toxicity

:19:06
was 90 days on thirty rats.
:19:08
And then either Monsanto
misreported the results

:19:12
to the FDA
:19:13
or the FDA didn’t bother
to look in depth

:19:15
at Monsanto’s own studies.
:19:18
The scientists within Health
Canada looked very carefully

:19:21
at bovine growth hormone
:19:22
and came to very
different conclusions

:19:24
than the Food and Drug
Administration in the U. S. Did

:19:27
Monsanto's engineered
growth hormone did not comply

:19:30
with safety requirements.
:19:31
it could be absorbed
by the body

:19:33
and therefore did have
implications for human health.

:19:36
Mysteriously that
conclusion was deleted

:19:39
from the final published
version of their report...

:19:42
I personally
was very concerned

:19:44
that there’s a very serious
problem of secrecy

:19:48
conspiracy and things
of that nature.

:19:50
We have been pressured
and coerced

:19:53
to pass drugs of
questionable safety

:19:56
including RB ST.
:19:57
We wrote the story.
:19:59
We had it ready a
week beforehand.

:20:01
They bought ads
:20:02
...farmers in the milk
industry say it's safe

:20:04
but studies suggest
a link to cancer.

:20:07
Don’t miss this special report
from The Investigators...

:20:09
That Friday night before the
Monday the series was to begin

:20:12
the fax machine
spit out a letter

:20:14
from this very high priced
lawyer in New York

:20:18
that Monsanto had hired.
:20:20
It contained a lot of
things that were just

:20:22
off-the-wall false
:20:23
Just demonstrably false
:20:25
but if you didn’t
know the story

:20:27
and you didn’t know how
wed gone about producing

:20:29
it would have scared
you as a broadcaster

:20:31
or as a manager.
:20:33
And they decided that they
would pull the story

:20:35
and they would just check
it one more time.

:20:38
But the bottom line was that
there was no factual errors

:20:41
in that story.
:20:41
Both sides had been
heard from

:20:43
both sides had had an
opportunity to speak.

:20:46
One week later
:20:47
Monsanto sent
the second letter

:20:49
and this was even
more strongly worded.

:20:51
And it said there will be dire
consequences for Fox News

:20:55
if the story airs
in Florida.

:20:58
And this time
they freaked.
