The Trial of Big Pharma
A framing note on power, trust, and modern medicine

The Last Wire

The pharmaceutical industry has saved millions of lives and generated billions in controversy.

This series puts Big Pharma on trial.

Not a hit piece. Not a defense brief.

A trial.

The evidence for the prosecution. The evidence for the defense. Then a verdict.

— Gonzo

The Trial of Big Pharma begins now, at The Last Wire

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
