Against Mr. Wigand are backed by scant or contradictory evidence.
All of us did. There was this whole line of people,
All right, Lowell. Page one. Editorial's interested. Let's talk.
All right?
All right? By the way, that was a hell of a good show tonight
All right? When I get a chance, I'll give it a look.
Americans believe that you... As an Islamic fundamentalist...
And Brown &Williamson...
And disclosing that which I said I wouldn't.
And he has five strokes on us.
And I hope you don't withdraw
And I wanna go on the record... Right now.
And lefts. Ups and downs and middles.
And play the pause after the word felt on the B side.
And the current head of the Food and Drug Administration have been saying.
And therefore affect the brain and central nervous system.
And you got something important to say. I can tell.
And you sent the document forward to Sandefur?
And you wish you hadn't come forward?
Are they doing it to make me feel paranoid?
Are you guys planning to do a piece on a former top executive in Big Tobacco?
As far as a tag or an advertisement.
Better already, aren't you?
Big Tobacco is a big story,
Byline to Sue in Hwang and Milo Geyelin.
Can you imagine me coming home from some job..
CBS Corporate leaned on CBS News, which yanked an interview we did...
Cigarettes and nicotine clearly do not meet the classic definitions of addiction.
Corporate malfeasance case in U.S. History.
Do you know, I enjoy your work so much.
Doesn't CBS have confidentiality agreements, Mr
Don, what the hell else do you need?
Don.
For major cigarette manufacturers...
Get me, uh... Get me to New Orleans this afternoon
Get out some paper, and draw me a picture
Give me a hand with this, will you?
Have a camera crew standing by in Helena, Montana on Tuesday,
He's on line three.
Head of Research and Development for Brown &Williamson
Hold on a second
How did a radical journalist from Ramparts magazine end up at CBS?
I am trying to protect you, man.
I am very pleased to receive you as my guest, Mr. Wallace.
I believe Mr. Sandefur perjured himself...
I don't believe that you can maintain corporate integrity...
I don't burn people.
I don't think it's unconstitutional yet to own a gun. I'm a target shooter.
I gotta know everything about why you were fired.
I have no intention of violating my confidentiality agreement...
I know what you're facing, Jeff.
I told them I disagreed with you, Mike and Kluster...
I too believe that nicotine..
I want to start as fast as possible.
I wanted it out immediately. I was told...
If we could take a look, Mr. Wigand.
In it is the whole sordid story...
It broadly defines and expands in more detail...
It makes you feel good, putting what you know to use?
It's so fucking useless, all of it.
Jeff Wigand, Michael Moore.
Jeffrey says exactly what's on his mind
Kentucky state law about...
Laundering narco dollars out of their Mexico City branch.
Liane, this is a preliminary...
Lowell, got him on the phone
Maybe it won't change a fuckin' thing,
Mike,
More time for us. Okay? It's just...
My little girl has a cute asthma.
My name is Jeff Wigand.
No medical, even on co pay, that's like... Tuition...
Now, any of these guys been offered jobs in corporate security after they retire?
Now, are you gonna go and do this thing or not?
Now, I know you understood the nature of the confidentiality portion...
Now, the work we did here is confidential, not for public scrutiny...
Odd choice, huh?
Oh, Bill. Main Justice is investigating a major New York bank...
Oh, I think he did.
Okay. Hold on a second.
On former Brown &Williamson research head, Jeffrey Wigand,
Or 60 Minutes with this cheap skepticism
Part of the reason I'm here is that I felt...
Pooh's dusty, sweetheart. He's dusty, and you breathed him in.
Push the deadline, Charlie.
Ride with me while I take the girls to school
Right here, right now.
Run that Sandefur piece on nicotine's not addictive.
Sealeddoesn'thurtScruggs'litigation,
Slow down.
So how can they restrain his speech or retaliate? It's out in the world.
So is everything okay?
So you know our reputation for integrity and objectivity
Somebody may be following me. I I don't know. They came on the property.
Still interest you?
Take your blindfold off.
Thanks for talking. I'm sorry I woke you up
Thanks for this.
That could screw up the sale, could it not?
That has been getting some new attention recently.
That is one of the possible consequences of your testifying here today.
That it would effect sales, so I should mind my own business.
That would give the same taste and had been unsuccessful
That you have to discuss with CBS Business Affairs.
That's not the fucking point, whether you told the truth or not!
The most recent trouble for Wigand occurred here...
The severance agreement includes cash payoffs over time...
The third party can be sued for damages for interfering.
They got the story that we pulled this interview, and they talked to Mike and I.
They'll know they're not, uh, going to see everything on Sunday night.
They're nocturnal. You know what that means?
They're trying to close down the story
This industry, in my opinion, is an industry...
This is the Wigands'.
To a lot of people, Jeffrey.
To keep a lid on information that might be damaging
Told your lungs, Don't breathe any more of that dust in.
Tony.
Tortious interference.
Try Mr. Wallace.
Um, what are those boxes?
Wandering in the wilderness of National Public Radio.
We got a guy who wants to talk, but he's constrained.
We need cops on the streets. We don't need them on horses.
We'd like you to sign it
We're on.
Week in, week out.
What about now?
What are you gonna get us?
What Dr. Wigand told us was that his former..
What future? No.
What is confidential
What school can you afford?
What's the difference?
When you're talkin' to somebody, I always feel like I'm right there.
Where the hell's the rest?
Who are these people?
Who told you your incompetent little fingers have the requisite skills to edit me?
Whole line of C.E.O.'s up there all swearing.
Whole line of C.E.O.'s up there swearing.
Why did you take your stuff from the office?
Would I do it again, do I think it's worth it?
Yeah, and he's gonna need legal representation.
Yeah, but what venue? And where does he get..
Yeah, I got it. Five hundred pages of it.
Yeah.
Yes, I get extremely emotional when assholes put bullets in my mailbox.
You all right?
You are... important...
You can call me Jeff
You go to tobacco. Tobacco is a sales culture...
You had multiple sclerosis. You had a small child to raise
You must move back your chair.
You never told me you were married before.
You screwed me. You sold me out.
You stay down here.
You wish you hadn't blown the whistle?
You'll find incredible sale prices through out Smith's Broyhill show case gallery,
You're asking yourself,
You've been served.
1.4 million.
Are you eating with us? Yeah
Besides, you'll never get what he's got
Coffee? Yeah, thank you.
How grave? Well, at the end of the day,
I'm Sandra Sutherland. How do you do?
If you'd like to leave a message or send a fax, start now.
Is still in force? Yes, it is.
Is that okay? Okay.
Is there any more rice? Yes, it's on the stove.
It went great in Mississippi, Mike. Good.
Okay. Boundaries of their constraint,
P.J.'s. I'll be there.
Really? Hi, June. Oh, hi, baby.
Someone put a bullet in my mailbox. Jeff, call the F.B.I.
Thank you, Bill. Yeah
There is... There is no family. What do you mean, there is no family?
Well, thank you for having us. Think I got a problem with the gennie.
What's the deadline? Soon.
You okay? Sure.
