Food and chemical industry spends millions on PR to attack organic, defend GMOs
A new report from Amigos de la Tierra — Spinning Food: How Food Industry Front Groups and Covert Communications are Shaping the Story of Food — documents unprecedented levels of spending from front groups, trade associations and anti-GMO labeling campaigns, with vast corporate marketing budgets aimed at defusing public concern about the risks of chemical-intensive industrial agriculture and undermining the reputation of organic food.
The communications strategies appear to be a response to skyrocketing annual growth in organic food sales and growing demand for GMO-free products. Comida giratoria investigates how Big Food and agrochemical corporations are deliberately misleading the public — and reporters — on facts about industrial agriculture and organic and sustainable food production.
