Pfizer Goes to Court to Stop The Whistleblower Confessions of a Healthcare...



8211; Dr. Peter Rost , author of 's8220;The Whistleblower 's8212; Confessions of a Healthcare Hitman,'s8221; today revealed that Pfizer has asked the US District Court, NY, to advise on relief and for sanctions against Dr. Rost for writing 's8220;The Whistleblower,'s8221; per recently released court records, case no. 05-CV-10384. (Court transcript attached.)







In a separate legal communiqué, Pfizer's8217;s lawyer writes, 's8220;Be advised that we are in the process of evaluating the extent to which this book likewise violates the Protective Order.'s8221; Pfizer has also requested 's8220;Confidential's8221; designation of virtually all documents used to write 's8220;The Whistleblower.'s8221;



's8220;Pfizer's8217;s attempt to stop 's8216;The Whistleblower's8217; and deny the public the right to view associated documents may not be surprising considering the explosive content and Pfizer's8217;s infamous history as the only drug company forced by the government to sign not just one, but two separate Corporate Integrity Agreements,'s8221; said Dr. Rost.



The New York Post wrote the following review, 's8220;A drug company executive is about to blow the lid off the pharmaceutical industry . . . revealing everything from sex in the corner office to private investigators spying on employees, company phone surveillance, FBI investigations and financial shenanigans resulting in million-dollar payouts.'s8221;



And L Magazine stated, 's8220;In this Enron-esque exposé of the healthcare industry, an . . . executive reveals everything you should already be assuming about most multinational corporations. You know, greed, spying, million-dollar payouts, and sex in the corner office.'s8221;



Medical Marketing & Media, a drug industry publication, concluded that 's8220;The Whistleblower's8221; is 's8220;a scathing account of the allegedly 'sinsidious's practices of the industry that once paid (Dr. Rost's8217;s) salary and of the US healthcare system. The media is sure to lap it up.'s8221;



Soft Skull Press sold the entire first printing during the first day of sale, September 10, 2006.
