ALERTER'S COMMENTS
I may shock you with this, but RT.com is a wannabe Infowars/PrisonPlanet type of site. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Russia_Today#Conspiracy_theories
Also, Guardian Express (GuardianLV.com) publishes junk science: http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2013/06/22/cystic-fibrosis-is-all-your-fault/comment-page-1/
Sorry, neither source has much credibility on science, and they even tread close to violating DU ToS "Democratic Underground is not intended to be a platform for kooks and crackpots peddling paranoid fantasies with little or no basis in fact."
This ain't "real scientific information" - it's conspiracy hogwash.

Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Your alert is hogwash. If you don't want to encounter differing views, maybe you should sit in front of a mirror and issue opinions to yourself. Most inane alert I think I've seen yet. LEAVE IT. Skip Intro.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: There are some awfully busy beavers alerting on every remotely unenthusiastic GMO post as this is my 3rd or 4th GMO jury in the last few days. Hmm.
