No Easy Day, Ambien Pharmaceutical PR

The book "No Easy Day" by former Navy SEAL Matt Bissonette contains references to the use of Ambien by special forces during the mission to kill Osama bin Laden. Media coverage on CNN, featuring Erin Burnett, has been characterized as an embedded commercial for the sleep aid, discussing specific dosages and timing for travelers. Critics argue the segment serves as pharmaceutical PR disguised as military reporting.
