Cassie B – Natural News Oct 8. 2020
If you’ve ever wondered why there isn’t more outrage over the dangers of pesticides and herbicides, even as environmental consciousness seems to be rising, the answer is simple: Manufacturers like Monsanto have entire departments devoted to discrediting journalists who expose their corrupt ways and paying off Google to censor search results.
A report from The Guardian exposed how Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, operated what was known as a “fusion center” to gather intelligence on journalists who dared to speak the truth about their products. One of their biggest targets was Reuters journalist Carey Gillam, who has done some excellent reporting on the links between Monsanto/Bayer weedkiller Roundup over the years. She now works as a research director for U.S. Right to Know, another target of Monsanto investigations.
The firm reportedly paid Google to promote search results criticizing her work when people searched terms such as “Monsanto glyphosate Carey Gillam.” The company also strategized to put pressure on Reuters, saying they needed to “continue to push back on [Gillam’s] editors very strongly every chance we get.”
They also launched a concerted attack against a book Gillam wrote prior to its release, Whitewash: The Story of a Weed Killer, Cancer, and the Corruption of Science, drafting talking points that third parties could use to criticize her work and instructing farmers and other industry customers on how they can post negative reviews about the book.
“I’ve always known that Monsanto didn’t like my work … and worked to pressure editors and silence me, but I never imagined a multi-billion-dollar company would actually spend so much time and energy and personnel on me. It’s astonishing.” Gillam told The Guardian. She said that her book received a slew of negative reviews on Amazon just after it was officially published and many of them repeated identical talking points.
Monsanto kept a file with the names of around 200 journalists and lawmakers whose influence they hoped to win over. They also launched an investigation into singer Neil Young and wrote a memo about his anti-Monsanto social media activities and music. They were so worried about his influence on the public that they had their legal team keeping tabs on him.
Although some companies do have intelligence centers that look out for legitimate criminal threats like cyberattacks, “it becomes troubling when you see corporations leveraging their money to investigate people who are engaging in their first amendment rights,” Electronic Frontier Foundation Senior Investigative Researcher Dave Maass pointed out.
Court cases are exposing Monsanto/Bayer’s corruption
These acts by Monsanto were revealed by documents that were disclosed in the court battles over the company’s deadly Roundup weedkiller. They have already been found liable in three of these cancer-related cases; more than 11,000 more Roundup lawsuits from landscapers, home gardeners and farmers are currently pending.
Glyphosate, which is listed as a carcinogen by the state of California and considered a probable carcinogen by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, is used on at least 70 food crops in the U.S., including vegetables, nuts and fruits, in addition to being sprayed on conventional crops like oats, wheat and barley prior to harvest. Its reach is tremendous, and residues of the chemical can be found in much of the food being sold and eaten in the U.S.
Monsanto also paid off researchers, ghostwriting studies to be published in their names that cast their products in a favorable light. The have also interfered with regulatory agencies and refused to conduct long-term safety studies on their products. Perhaps if they had devoted less time and energy to attacking their critics and more time to making their products safer, they would not be in this position right now.

I am sure that when Goolag decided to make some extra shekels on the side feeding Big Pharma and Big Chemical data they took down those hallways signs that said “Don’t be EVIL” – anagrams to D EVIL.
Don’t be evil — Wikipedia
“Don’t be evil” is a phrase used in Google’s corporate code of conduct, which it also formerly preceded as a motto. Following Google’s corporate restructuring under the conglomerate Alphabet Inc. in October 2015, Alphabet took “Do the right thing” as its motto, also forming the opening of its corporate code of conduct. The original motto was retained in Google’s code of conduct, now a subsidiary of Alphabet. In April 2018, the motto was removed from the code of conduct’s preface and retained in its last sentence.
Corporations, by their nature, do evil.
The also lobby the politicians to get the laws the want – the privilege they want in the market place. What is the best damn thing for big business? WAR.
War is good for business, it is good to have wartime presidents who keep the grease of commerce flowing with wars. Endless wars. 9-11-2001. A war without end on anyone we say is a terrorist based on intelligence we make up. A war were Boeing, Lockheed, Northrup, General Dynamics, and all the subcontractors get a steady stream of never ending contracts.
The company who makes the bombs and missiles has a chat with the company who makes the airframe, who invites them to a Penatcon Roundable chaired by Satanyahu, on how to get the next war started by the next false flag. All nod in agreement, pat each other on the back, business is good, Israel keeps the money flowing into our coffers.
It is quite believable that Monsatano wants to stop bad press about Roundup – which is hitting them in their bottom line with expensive lawsuits by going to an information company like Goolag and getting the goods on those pesky journalistic non-flag waving naysayers.
Mysatano might be forced to stop selling roundup on the streets in Amerika, but no problem, they can make some other chemical and put it in a bomb and drop it on the enemy. Napalm, Agent Orange, White Phophorus.
I have a new motto for Goolag. We deliver the world to you, one gigabite at a time.
The Jewish Overlords who own Monsanto/Bayer, intentionally poison & pollute the planet/environment with their pesticides/chemicals, because they themselves are genetically polluted with simian-negroid-mongoloid DNA.
Why would antinatural mongrels care about nature or the quality of life in society or on the planet?
Beginning 70ts i had farmers sons as friends and they warned me of Round Up. Now farmers increase their crops by spraying it with Round Up just before harvesting. Seed production increases and ripens more quickly when the plant dies.
This Shame of Monsanto clearly Belongs on the Doorstep of the US Government, and the answer is they clearly do not have any shame, And That is Why they Are Clearly Hated By more than 70 Per Cent of the Planet, because many of them had Problems with Monsanto And Nothing Was Done About It, Only The Lame Brits have not tried to do anything about it Because they are still Part of the US Circus Pony Show,
Stopped at ”according to the Guardian” Obviously Complete and utter far left BS……………….ps I hope you are not the Cassie B on ‘only tease’ who had thos horendous bolt ons put on if so you intellect is as false as your tits
I do not know anyone these days DUMB enough to use google as a search engine.
Google lards your system up with trackers. Use DuckDuckGo for searches. DuckDuckGo does not track you, and you can use it to block trackers.
Google purchased Duck Duck Go in January 2020.
