11. This is a totally misleading and inaccurate headline

Read the article, it is NOT saying they didn't find antibiotics in the cows milk. They DID find antibiotics in the milk. They found a lot of antibiotics. They just did NOT find contamination levels or excess levels of antibiotics. They seemed to have focused on farmers who had previously violated the amount of antibiotics allowed in cow's milk.

As a farmer I can guarantee you that there are plenty of antibiotics in grocer store cow's milk. They are just not at a level considered excessive by the FDA.

Give a tool to a farmer that increases production and they are going to use it.
