How many?

Which ones?

All of them or some or most of them?

So maybe a big name isn't interested.

There are tons of companies who make generics who would probably welcome the opportunity to market a concoction like this or at least entertain the idea.

You seem very ready to assume that the author didn't do his homework, while seeming equally willing to assume that there are some companies who would be game.

Given their track record, any "advocacy" type article that appears in the news media should be considered written by someone who didn't do his or her homework until proven otherwise.

That's certainly possible, but then I still prefer something tangible in response, "Here is the homework you failed to do." You know?

It's too easy just to imply that someone didn't do it, and then sneak a claim in on the side.
