Investigative Journalism: What Accountability Looks Like

Swine Flu: The 1977 Investigation Mike Wallace Didn't Back Down From
Transparency is key to public health trust. This powerful 14-minute 60 Minutes segment by Mike Wallace is an essential look back at the 1976 Swine Flu program controversy. This is a remarkable example of investigative journalism where the mainstream media held public health officials accountable for their decisions and the resulting serious adverse health outcomes. The segment tragically details the human cost that highlights the critical importance of informed consent. This is the level of scrutiny and accountability we should always expect from the media and public health officials.
