In an investigative reporting collaboration with international media partners, The New Lede reveals the inner workings of a vast international campaign orchestrated by pesticide industry proponents to downplay pesticide dangers, neutralize pesticide critics, and promote policies that benefit makers of pesticides and genetically engineered crops. Some of the work, including the creation of critical profiles of individuals the pesticide industry sees as opponents, was financed in part by US taxpayer dollars, according to documents unearthed in the investigation. The New Lede is making many of these documents accessible here. See the story here and here.
