Cattle industry went against Oprah, Dr. Oz advocates GMO

 

 

The famous talk show host Oprah Winfrey once had to run to the courts as a lawsuit was filed against her back in the mid 90s. In 1996, Oprah hosted a show where the guest opined that there was always a possibility of an outbreak of mad cow disease as cattle all over the U.S. was fed with livestock who had died suddenly and without any apparent reason. However, this show created much controversy across the country as beef prices plummeted and cattle farmers were left with huge losses. They filed a lawsuit against the guest of the show, Howard Lyman, who was held responsible for their losses. However, Oprah being the host, was not spared.

 

Though cattle farmers said that beef was absolutely safe, there had already been an outbreak of mad cow disease in England prior to the telecast of the show. Moreover, the UK government had also accepted the fact that there was always a possibility of people getting infected with the disease due to uncontrolled consumption of beef. But all these things are of no importance to the cattle owners and the GMO companies whose sole purpose is to earn huge profits even at the cost of human lives.

Natural News reports that reputed cardiologist Dr. Oz has opined in favor of genetically modified foods and has humiliated those who use organic foods in order to serve the interest of food giants. This alarming opinion from Dr. Oz is seen by many as  part of a malicious campaign organized by a well known P.R firm that was also associated with the “No on 37” campaign in order to stop the awareness against GMOs. Though it is uncertain which P.R. firm was behind this, one thing is clear, the food giants are trying their best to propagate GMOs and diseases.
