Eliot Spitzer wins again

The New York Times > Business > Maker of Paxil to Release All Trial Results
In a settlement that the New York State attorney general said would transform the drug industry, GlaxoSmithKline agreed today to post on its Web site the results of all clinical trials involving its drugs.

'This settlement is transformational in that it will provide doctors and patients access to the clinical testing data necessary to make informed judgments,' the attorney general, Eliot Spitzer, said.

Spitzer has reformed an industry out of control, and righted a wrong that the medical establishment accepted far, far, too long.

Imagine.

John Ashcroft -> Eliot Spitzer.
