Oprah v. Beef Part 1: The Rise of "Veggie Libel"

Maintenance Phase

CHAPTER

The Catalman's Association and Beef Ranchers

The Catalman's Association or like beef ranchers or something came after Oprah and filed suit against her. It was a big lawsuit but I don't know why. My understanding was that it was around something relating to talking about mad cow disease. There was a pesticide called alar that farmers sprayed on apple trees to keep the apples from falling down and getting bruised. The segment opens with a graphic of a red delicious apple like morphing into a skull and cross bone. This is basically just an excuse to talk about a bunch of other shit and put Oprah in the title of the show so that you download it.
