like that has not been a problem for ages, but I don't see the news crews being shown through to show off their investigative reporting.... Considering that the level of salmonella in undercooked eggs would require either a lot of eggs or a bad immune system to get infected from what I have heard.

The news crews are not permitted to enter the facility's. If the farmers let them in they lose their contracts and get shut down..many of the company's that own the operations also work for the Food and Drug Admin... and this in turn upsets the Health issues and inspection operations.

It is what it is...

This is what happens in any Industry without effective oversight and regulations to insure public and workers health! Profit before all else! If you think this is something new, read Upton Sinclair's book "The Jungle", only don't plan on eating meat for a couple of weeks after! The book is about the stuff going on in the meat packing industry at the turn of the last century! Both what the consumers got, and how they treated their workers will turn your stomach!

And how was this a "deregulated" farm?

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Next to no oversight by government health and safety standards.

You may have noticed the same philosophy at work in the BP oil spill.

Regulations are seen as anti-business and are therefore gotten rid of or ignored. Oddly something bad for business often occurs as a result.

Also odd that you don't seem to know anything about this point of view.
