Peter Rost, the Frankenstein's Monster of PfizerBy BrandweekNRX
"I care about things from a marketing and brand image point of view, of course. I'm happy to cover good news and bad coming out of Pfizer.
But in terms of the company's image, it just makes me think that about November 2005, when Pfizer had the opportunity to pay Rost to shut up and go away. Instead, he was fired. Wouldn't it have been a lot easier to settle with him?"
Riding in Peter Rost's WakeBy Pharma Blogosphere
Contrary to John's thought in this post that I link to other blogs to "reward" them - I don't. I link because I think QA readers may be interested in their opinion, including John's opinion. I simply write about stuff I enjoy reading and link to things I find interesting.

Whistleblowing While You Don’t WorkBy impactiviti on News
"The latest revelation - possible misdeeds in India, linked to the Pfizer/Parke-Davis transaction. You have to have some time on your hands, and, in fact, a willingness to wash your hands afterward, but to read more, go over to the Question Authority blog . . . Peter has thus become a “rock star” among some of the pharma bloggers that love dishing dirt, or at least, reporting headline-worthy news. So be forewarned - Question Authority is not a blog where you will find industry cheerleading!"

The drug business is unbelievably profitable. How much of a higher yield do they get by being dishonest?
I honestly don't believe they set out to BE dishonest. I think it happens without maliciousness, more like a general type of corporate slippage. I also believe that there are powerful incentives WITHIN big profit companies for actions that move you vertically rather than benefit the bottom line. Thanks for responding.
John Mack - hopeless...
Peter Rost - priceless...
