Judy Piatt

KILLING HORSES

A PERSONAL CHRONICLE ABOUT AN ENVIRONMENTAL DISASTER

If were not for Judy Piatt pushing local authorities into investigating what was killing her horses and sickening her children, the EPA probably would never have taken action in the first place. Piatt famously followed waste hauler Russel Bliss to Monsanto, a source of pollution the EPA would later ignore.

 

Piatt died of cancer soon after the publication of Killing Horses.
Her book is Killing Horses

Peter Phillips & Project Censored

CENSORED 1999

THE YEARS TOP 25 CENSORED STORIES

Project Censored, a not for profit media watchdog concerned with media censorship releases an annual book.

 

Its release in 1999 included a story by Dr. Brian Tokar of the University of Vermont, "Monsanto: A Checkered History" which was originally included in an issue of the Ecologist, which was infamously shredded by its printer prior to distribution allegedly due to threat of lawsuit by Monsanto.

 

In the article, Tokar quotes Steve Taylor of TBAG about the central role of Monsanto in the Times Beach environmental disaster, involvement denied by the EPA.

​

In the article, Dr. Tokar writes, "The cover-up at Times Beach reached the highest levels in the Reagan Administration in Washington."
