Well, I hope so:

There was a mediocre Twilight Zone episode sort-of about this starring Jason Alexander.

As much as I love The Corporation...

I've been suspicious of this one for a while now. I've heard that this was a myth from a few different sources, but I sort of didn't want to believe it.

I'm pro-GMO. The arguments from the anti-GMO folks don't convince me.

But I'm not a big fan of big corporations.

So reading stuff like this pulls me in two different directions:

1. I WANT TO HATE THE BIG CORPORATE MONSTER: When big corporations screw up, I'm happy because it confirms my biases. When I hear that the anti-corporation people have fabricated stuff, however, it frustrates me. I want to hate the corporations, but you don't have to lie about it.
2. I WANT SCIENCE TO GAIN THE RESPECT IT DESERVES: Numerous peer-reviewed studies have shown that GMOs don't cause problems. If we want to feed the world, we need GMOs to help us. So I'm happy that science gets confirmed again.

So articles like this suck because they don't confirm both my biases.
