Big Pharma worried about next Michael Moore movie

The Los Angeles Times reports that at least six big drug companies have sent internal notices to employees preparing them for "potential ambushes" from Michael Moore, whose next film will be on health care and the pharmaceutical industry.

The Times quotes a big pharma spokesman: "We have an image problem -- not only with Michael Moore, but with the general public."

Moore told the paper, "Being screwed by your HMO and ill-served by pharmaceutical companies is the shared American experience. The system, inferior to that of much poorer nations, benefits the few at the expense of the many."

The movie, tentatively entitled "Sicko," is just entering production, yet Moore says "already people are freaky-deaky."

Psychiatric poison given to people with misplaced trust in their doctors as so called "medication" wihtout any proper health warning has utterly ruined lives.

I am part of a group of hundreds of people with ongoing/permanent sexual dysfunction caused by SSRI`s like paxil and prozac thats persisted AFTER discontinuing the drug -
