FDA Spying on Its Own Scientists

"Scores of internal agency documents made available to The New York Times show that agency managers sought to approve an application by General Electric to allow the use of CT scans for colon cancer screenings over the repeated objections of agency scientists, who wanted the application rejected.

Since then, according to an eye-popping Times story earlier this month, the FDA has done the following things: (1) approved GE's application over the objection of those scientists; (2) launched an extraordinary surveillance campaign to monitor the computer activity of the scientists and their attempts to blow the whistle; and (3) fired several of them, who have in turn filed suit claiming they were axed in retaliation for whistle-blowing."

The FDA loves us and wants to keep us safe.... everything they do is in the best interests of public health.... not. What else have you found on this? I haven't really been following any of it. I've caught what they're doing to whistle blowers though.... they're treated like lepers.
