Until very recently, Monsanto was used to operating without impunity. But things are changing. In the last couple of years, multiple lawsuits against the chemical giant have cropped up. And, while Monsanto has, for the most part, “escaped scrutiny and criticism in the mainstream media in recent years, more and more information is coming to light in the general public about the serious dangers of its products, including its best-selling weedkiller Roundup.” 1

Even on the daytime television show, The Doctors. (Check out a clip from the show below.)

The wide-ranging episode covered everything from the millions of pages of confidential documents on Roundup toxicity to the heartbreaking personal story of one still-grieving widow who says she ‘watched her husband deteriorate’ after long-term exposure to glyphosate.”2

The above episode of the show also saw Brent Wisner, an attorney representing scores of (alleged) victims of poisoning from glyphosate and Roundup, who told the true story of Roundup.

RELATED STORY:

Created in 1964, it was originally patented not as an herbicide but as a substance used to de-scale industrial boilers, something Wisner found out when he gained access to millions of classified documents from Monsanto (they forgot to file a motion to keep the documents confidential).

Thankfully, his firm posted the documents on their website and even sent them along to regulators in Europe, California and the EPA, among others. The evidence found within those documents (including info that glyphosate was first classified as a likely carcinogen) will be used to defend many (alleged) victims.

We will keep you updated, as always, on all the lawsuits against Monsanto. Keep spreading the word. Monsanto’s ivory tower is crumbling.
