That is not enough punishment for that kind of reporting. All of the rest need to face the music for what they’ve done too. It has to happen.

I was hoping for at least an order of magnitude larger settlement. In any case ABC remains as an absolute antonym for “credibility.”

I remember watching this report and thinking at the time that the fools had no idea what meat processing always looks like...

Amazing, I fully remember the hysteria on FR over this report and the wide acceptance of it as fact, I wonder how the it will play now.

The REAL story is the PINK SLIME. They use it in Prison a lot.
