The network news programs get 90% of their revenue from Big Pharma advertising.
That’s why they don’t tell the truth about Big Pharma.
90%?
Well, I am not so sure it is 90%, but, certainly the media, even conservative talk radio, is saturated with ads for meds. If that gets cut back, there is going to be some serious howling.
I do make the concession that many of these ads seem to be 1/2 or more about potential harmful side effects. In almost every case I can think of, even when there might be some benefit to me, at the end of the ad, I am left thinking the “cure” is worse than the problem it supposedly addresses.
