NPR Piece on Monsanto

I did not listen to the broadcast but know that NPR does listen to response
and frequently will air program segments that have valid opposing
information. I don't believe individual comments to NPR would be very
effective against Monsanto's PR savvy, but a letter noting Chuck Benbrook's
RR soybean yield statistics, references to the European movement refusing
gmo soybeans, and substantial additional scientific data from credible
authorities, organized in a timely way and signed by nationally visible
organizations may lead to equal air time. NPR needs only to be convinced
(which would not be difficult to do) that there is as much unavailable
information about the negative impact of Monsanto's promotion of its gmo
products as there is of the perceived benefits. Anyone care to jump in on
this ? Chuck?
