In reply to the discussion: Chemical Glyphosate (GMO handmaiden) found in California Wines [View all]No, truth-out has shown itself to be very bad when it comes to science.
This is more of the same anti-science hyperbole that runs rampant on the Internet. Somehow the vilification of a single herbicide is always done in a vacuum, as well. These pieces never acknowledge the greater toxicity of the herbicides the product replaced. Organic propaganda never mentions the reality about organic herbicides, nevermind their toxicity. Why is that?

These claims have never been backed up by good science. Ignoring the reality about the actual toxicity of glyphosate and promoting the usual fear mongering links is not helpful.
