National Geographic is now the propaganda arm of Monsanto, Big Pharma

It’s
said to be one of the largest non-profit scientific and educational
organizations in the world. But the National Geographic Society, which
publishes the popular National Geographic magazine, sure takes in
a lot of money from the drug and biotechnology industries, as evidenced
by the multi-page advertising spreads littering its print periodical.
After blowing the lid recently on National Geographic‘s shameless endorsements for genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and vaccines, we decided to pick up the latest issue of National Geographic
to see who’s funding the magazine these days. Perhaps not surprisingly,
nearly every ad was for pharmaceutical drugs, alcohol, GMOs or crop
chemicals.
