First, we lead off with a panel discussion on the state of the food safety system in America. Our experts focus on: the growing-in-popularity idea of creating a unified food safety agency, the current problems of food safety oversight that stem from having multiple agencies in charge, and different pieces of proposed legislation that address this issue.
Our guests include Steve Clapp of Food Chemical News, and Tony Corbo of Food & Water Watch. Then, we sit down with the International Association of Whistleblowers James Murtagh to discuss the problems with peer review systems at hospitals.
This segment was filmed during the annual National Whistleblower Assembly, held in Washington D.C. in March 2009. This episode was filmed in early March 2009.
