6:23Now PlayingThe Dairy industry is a lot more insidious than you think. Cenk Uygur, Kim Horcher, Ben Mankiewicz, and Michael Brooks, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Major United States dairy producers will pay $52 million to settle an antitrust class-action lawsuit accusing them of slaughtering more than 500,000 cows to reduce milk supply and inflate prices.
“This cow-killing program exploited both the animals and the consumers, and resulted in the early deaths of half a million cows,” attorney Cheryl Leahy told The Huffington Post in an email. Leahy is general counsel for Compassion Over Killing, an animal protection group that spearheaded the suit.
The settlement means that anyone who purchased dairy products in one of several states between 2003 and 2011 could be entitled to a cash payout. (Details are here.)
Class action firm Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP filed the suit in 2011 on behalf of dairy consumers, against dairy lobbying group National Milk Producers Federation and industry cooperatives Dairy Farmers of America, Land O’ Lakes, DairyLea Cooperative and Agrimark.”
