Big Pharma Readies Effort To Counter Moore's 'Sicko'

Submitted by John Mack, Jun 20, 2007 08:08

Many of these think tank pundits are knee-jerk critics of Michael Moore and have not even seen the film, unless thay have illegally downloaded a pirated version from the Internet (I'd love to see them admit that!).

I am the first pharma industry blogger to actually have seen the movie before offering my views on it. Meanwhile, critics like Drug Wonks -- funded in part by the pharma industry, stoop to name calling -- eg. Moore is fat and his supporters are ignorant; when confronted over these tactics, they pull their posts and hide. Thank you for this opportunity to present another side of the story.
