[QUOTE="FireDragon76, post: 77521726, member: 330042"] The sponsorship is often subtle. They fund controversial sounding but flawed medical studies then pay journalists like Nina Teicholz to promote the story as some new disruptive bit of information that changes everything (like Galileo), when in fact it's just a bad study comparing something like butter with coconut oil or hydrogenated vegetable oil. Then Teicholz proclaims how the whole medical establishment is rotten because butter is the new misunderstood superfood, and you get dozens of quack doctors suddenly advocating putting butter in coffee. Wash, rinse, and repeat. The discussion is about Veganism, not junk food. Just because a group accepts money also doesn't imply a conflict of interest. Especially when the interest in question has little or nothing to do with the subject being discussed. McDonald's has no financial interest in promoting a Vegan diet, in fact very little of their menu here in the US is Vegan. [/QUOTE]
