Dear All

Published today (Dec 15th) on *Independent Science News*:
*Seeds of Truth: Vandana Shiva and the New Yorker*
by Dr Vandana Shiva

http://www.independentsciencenews.org/un-sustainable-farming/seeds-of-truth-vandana-shiva-new-yorker/

*Synopsis:* Earlier this year *The New Yorker* published an article by
Michael Specter titled "Seeds of Doubt". We are reprinting the reply of Dr
Vandana Shiva who was the centrepiece of that article. As well as detailing
its "fraudulent assertions and deliberate attempts to skew reality", Dr
Shiva calls important attention to the ongoing efforts of Monsanto and the
biotechnology industry to manipulate reporting of GMO issues in the
media-including the publishers of *The New Yorker*. She also gives her
assessment of the still misunderstood Indian experience with GMO Bt cotton
that was the background to *The New Yorker* article.

yours sincerely

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits
and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic
society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society
constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of
our country.”—Edward Bernays, Propaganda
