9 August 2009 (Corrupt pharmaceutical industry practices)

Pharma company Wyeth corrupted medical research literature by getting respected physicians to put their names on articles written by PR companies. These articles presented a biased picture of the effects of hormone replacement therapy, which was later found to be dangerous. Drug companies have also run fake medical journals and corrupted doctors through gifts. This is what they do with the money they collect from imposing patents in poor coutries.
