#Oops: The seminal (strongly influencing later developments) paper that has been used for 25 years to justify that the use of #Glyphosate is safe has been retracted.
"Concerns were raised regarding the authorship of this paper, validity of the research findings in the context of misrepresentation of the contributions by the authors and the study sponsor and potential conflicts of interest of the authors. "

@jwildeboer
Any mention of Monsanto requires me to quote @pluralistic
"You'll recall that Bayer merged with Monsanto in 2018, paying $66b in an all-cash deal and erasing the Monsanto name (apparently, they judged Bayer's association with Auschwitz to be preferable to Monsanto's association with Roundup)."
You gotta read the whole retraction, not just @jwildeboer's excerpt. It's brutal.
@jwildeboer I tried to find when this was retracted. I assume it was a recent event, but 25 years?
