There's Still Time To Punch Martin Shkreli In The Face

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

He's despised after raising the price of a life-saving drug by more than 5,000 percent. When his publicist died, Shkreli proposed to raise money for his family with the punch gimmick. He's accepted a $50,000 proposal from a Florida woman who backed out. So he's asking who else is ready with a checkbook and a fist. It's MORNING EDITION Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
