Thieves In Suits

Mike Wallace: I'm not talking celebrity, vanity, CBS. I'm talking about when you're nearer the end of your life than the beginning. Now, what do you think you think about then? The future? In the future I'm going to do this? Become that? What future? No. What you think is "How will I be regarded in the end?" After I'm gone. Now, along the way I suppose I made some minor impact. I did Iran-Gate and the Ayatollah, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Saddam, Sadat, et cetera, et cetera. I showed them thieves in suits. I've spent a lifetime building all that. But history only remembers most what you did last. And should that be fronting a segment that allowed a tobacco giant to crash this network? Does it give someone at my time of life pause? (The Insider)  Christopher Plumber as Mike Wallace- The top cops within the DEA couldn't go after McKesson effectively because their lawyers were afraid to lose and were intimidated by their Ivy League brass- Just a small pittance of a fine that in aggregate only proves how meek and ineffectual they all are. At least the DEA guy gave it his best shot- Today we still have criminal cartels that are supplying our streets with pills that come directly from McKesson and this crisis isn't going away any time soon
