Big Beef: The War on Your Wallet | A Bloody Business | 1

In 1996, a handful of cattle ranchers make a bold decision: to sue IBP, the biggest beef processor in the world. They accuse IBP of price-fixing, putting cattle producers out of business while raising prices for consumers. But the ranchers will soon learn that their fight with Big Beef has actually been raging for decades, involving antitrust crusaders in the 1920s and New York mobsters in the 1970s. And the meatpackers do not intend to lose now.
