Not for a second do I believe Monsanto's response page to the movie "Food, Inc.," even though I scored a perfect 7-for-7 on its facts quiz it deploys to help carry its attack against the film.

The first question tells a lot about Monsanto's debunking approach: "Monsanto did NOT decline to participate in the film." Respondents who successfully wade through the double-negative will still have been misdirected from the point, which is that Monsanto did not agree to participate, either. And why would they — the film was made to expose industry practices that Monsanto would rather have remain under our radar.

Anyway, click on over and see if you're persuaded.
