I feel this gets overlooked too easily. Also, there was a recent article reporting that the study that proofed talc was responsible for the asbestos exposure, was fundamentally flawed and ignored major historic exposure to asbestos in its participants.
Shit on J&J all you want, they deserve a fair bit of criticism, but the talc ruling is just plain ignorance by the jury.
Looking at the layoffs at the AAA publishers I wouldn’t bet on it.
Let’s see them actually release something before getting excited, now it’s just cheap publicity
