obert Kennedy is a long time environmental activist who has been outspoken on a number of topics for most of his life.

Speaking with former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura on an episode of "Off The Grid", Kennedy revealed that 70% of ad revenue for major news networks comes from big pharma.

"I ate breakfast last week with the president of a network news division and he told me that during non-election years, 70% of the advertising revenues for his news division come from pharmaceutical ads. And if you go on TV any night and watch the network news, you'll see they become just a vehicle for selling pharmaceuticals. He also told me that he would fire a host who brought onto his station a guest who lost him a pharmaceutical account," Kennedy said.

Robert F Kennedy Jr. testified before the Vermont House Health Care Committee on May 5, 2015, discussing big pharma's influence in the CDC. A video of his testimony can be viewed below:
