June 21st, 1990. Geraldo Rivera on his namesake talk show explores the big business of pharmaceutical drugs. We hear from Dr. Edwin Webb, of the American Pharmaceutical Association.
“I feel very comfortable…given the basic tenet that drug therapy cannot be risk free, that our system by and large addresses most concerns.”
The conversation moves into what consumers can do to protect themselves, and how to navigate the complicated world of profit and health mixed together. A balanced perspective on the American pop-a-pill culture.
This day, Geraldo’s show history.
