DATA-FIDDLERS AND LIARS

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a wing of the World Health Organization, removed numerous sections from a draft of its review on glyphosate that concluded glyphosate was not a carcinogen.
That’s according to an investigation by Reuters, published last month.
The IARC concluded in March 2015 that glyphosate probably caused cancer in humans. The organization cited “sufficient evidence,” that it caused cancer in animals and “limited evidence” that it caused cancer in humans.
The edits identified by Reuters were the removal of multiple scientists’ conclusions that studies they had conducted found no link between glyphosate and cancer.
