DeLauro Calls for USDA Investigation into Tainted Beef

Since 2005 we have not only called for investigations into tainted beef but also provided this congresswomen and Georgia congressman Tom Price and Senator Saxby Chambliss documents and affidavits showing the USDA and the State of Florida covered up contaminated facilities in the State of Florida. These representatives may call for investigations but the calls are in a faint whisper and have fallen on deaf ears from all agencies.

Trail of E. Coli Shows Flaws in Inspection of Ground Beef

You must read this front page article -http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/04/health/04meat.html

What is more sickening then the E: COLI contamination is the use of selective journalism to protect those who should be held accountable, that being governmental organizations and officials. The Times many times has covered up their own investigative reporting and information received from public consumer oversight organizations. Where was the Times when it knew of food contamination and the distribution of contaminated meats in 2005 .What has moved this problem to the front pages now? Again members of congress will write letters and ask for USDA reform to protect the consumer. The USDA will take its sweet time in answering the letters, time will again pass, so very slowly, and more and more consumers will be sickened and those responsible will get a reprieve as the media moves on to the next item to get the attention of the public.
