    Whoh

    In September 2012, BPI filed a defamation lawsuit against ABC for false claims about the product. By 2017, BPI was seeking $1.9 billion in damages. On June 28, 2017, ABC announced that it had settled the suit. Terms of the settlement were at least $177 million (US). Counsel for BPI stated that this was at that time the largest amount ever paid in a media defamation case in the United States.

    What’s that all about? Cut & dry case, clear abuse of the law, or somewhere in between? (The CNN link was dead, in my defense)

    In December 2018, lean finely textured beef was reclassified as “ground beef” by the Food Safety and Inspection Service of the United States Department of Agriculture.
