Central to the GM food debate is a company called Monsanto. Monsanto is a multinational agricultural biotechnology corporation responsible for the development and marketing of genetically 'engineered' seeds and bovine growth hormone. Often the center of controversy, Monsanto has been the plaintiff in over 150 patent infringement lawsuits with US farmers in recent years.
In 1997, Fox News caved to pressure from Monsanto to 'suppress' a report on the health hazards associated with Monsanto's bovine growth hormone product Posilac. This video shares the details of that event.

The USDA runs the organic foods, can they be trusted?
