Ep. 102: Eric Eyre Explains How the Drug Companies Created the Opioid Crisis in Appalachia and Beyond

The Truth Report with Chauncey DeVega

Eric Eyre is a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist and author of the book “Death in Mud Lick: A Coal Country Fight against the Drug Companies That Delivered the Opioid Epidemic”.

He explains how big pharma flooded vulnerable rural communities in Appalachia and elsewhere with tens of millions of opioid pain pills.

Eyre also shares the human story behind his Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporting on the opioid crisis and what is a true David and Goliath story of resistance against corporate malfeasance and the exploitation of literal human pain and suffering.
