- CBS' 60 Minutes will air a segment this Sunday featuring Ohio governor-elect Mike DeWine (formerly the AG) criticizing certain drug companies and distributors over their role in the opioid crisis. According to reporter Bill Whitaker, Mr. DeWine says the evidence, obtained from the confidential reporting system drug distributors share with the DEA, could result in a massive verdict against the companies if it were to go to trial.
- The investigative reporting show aired a related piece a year ago.
