Pulitzer Prizer Winner Discusses Big Business

PITTSBURGH (NewsRadio 1020 KDKA) -- KDKA Radio's Chris Moore talked to David Cay Johnston, author of the book, "How Big Companies Use 'Plain English' to Rob You Blind."

Johnston believes the trusting customer is being squeezed for every last cent in their pocket, asked to risk their retirement funds and even endanger their lives. And the powerful companies can do it all legally. But, how?

"It's all in the fine print," he says.

Johnston has set out to show the public how corporations can hide stipulations in just about every contract, often with government permission.

Johnston also wrote, "Per­fectly Legal" and "Free Lunch."

Listen as they discuss the power that big companies have over the citizens.

Listen to Chris Moore live every Sunday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m.
