Natural News
Natural News (formerly NewsTarget, which is now a separate sister
site) is a far-right, anti-vaccination conspiracy theory and fake news website known for promoting alternative medicine, pseudoscience, and far-right extremism.
The site's founder, Michael Allen "Mike" Adams, gained attention after posting a blog entry implying a call for violence against proponents
of GMO foods, and then allegedly creating another website with a list
of names of alleged supporters. He has been accused of using
"pseudoscience to sell his lies". Adams has described vaccines as
"medical child abuse".
The website sells various dietary supplements, promotes alternative
medicine and climate change denial, makes tendentious nutrition and
health claims, disseminates fake news, and espouses various
conspiracy theories and pro-Donald Trump propaganda. These conspiracy theories include chemophobic claims about the purported dangers of "chemtrails", fluoridated drinking water, anti-perspirants, laundry detergent, monosodium glutamate, aspartame, and vaccines. It has also spread conspiracy theories about the Zika virus allegedly being spread
by genetically modified mosquitoes and purported adverse effects of genetically modified crops, as well as the farming practices
associated with and foods derived from them.
As of 2014, Natural News had approximately 7 million unique visitors
per month.
In May 2020, Facebook banned Natural News content from its platform
after discovering that the site was boosting its popularity using
content farms in North Macedonia and the Philippines, a form of
spamming. Natural News bypassed the ban by republishing its content
on a large number of topic-specific domain names, including
trump.news, extinction.news, mind.control.news, and veggie.news. The Institute for Strategic Dialogue found 496 domain names associated
with Natural News as of June 2020.
Founder
Michael Allen "Mike" Adams (born 1967 in Lawrence, Kansas) is the
founder and owner of Natural News; the domain name was registered in
2005 and began publishing articles in 2008. According to Adams' own
website, he became interested in alternative nutrition when he
developed type II diabetes at the age of 30 and one of his websites
asserts "he cured himself of diabetes in a matter of months and
transformed himself into the picture of perfect health in mind, body
and spirit" himself using natural remedies. However, The Daily Beast
found that his recommendation for Amazon Herb Company products in at
least eight articles, including a supposed "third-party review...from
a truly independent perspective" turn out to be misleading; he has a financial interest in the company, according to non-profit business
records in Arizona. He is a raw foods enthusiast and holistic
nutritionist. He claims to eat no processed foods, dairy, sugar, meat
from mammals or food products containing additives such as monosodium glutamate (MSG). He also says he avoids use of prescription drugs and
visits to Western medical doctors.
Adams has endorsed conspiracy theories surrounding the Deepwater
Horizon oil spill, and those involving Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.
He has endorsed Burzynski: Cancer Is Serious Business, a movie about Stanislaw Burzynski. Steven Novella characterizes Adams as "a
dangerous conspiracy-mongering crank". Adams has also endorsed the
books of conspiracy theorist Jim Marrs.
Adams has made music videos expressing similar viewpoints as the
articles posted on his website, such as opposition to the swine flu
vaccine.
Criticism and controversies
Writing in the journal Vaccine, Anna Kata identified Natural News as
one of numerous websites spreading "irresponsible health information". According to John Banks, Adams uses "pseudoscience to sell his lies"
and is "seen as generally a quack and a shill by science bloggers."
One such blogger, David Gorski of ScienceBlogs, called Natural News
"one of the most wretched hives of scum and quackery on the Internet,"
and the most "blatant purveyor of the worst kind of quackery and
paranoid anti-physician and anti-medicine conspiracy theories anywhere
on the Internet", and a one-stop-shop for "virtually every quackery
known to humankind, all slathered with a heaping, helping of
unrelenting hostility to science-based medicine and science in
general." Peter Bowditch of the website Ratbags commented about the
site. Steven Novella of NeuroLogica Blog called NaturalNews "a crank
alt med site that promotes every sort of medical nonsense imaginable." Novella continued: "If it is unscientific, antiscientific, conspiracy-mongering, or downright silly, Mike Adams appears to be all
for it—whatever sells the "natural" products he hawks on his site."
Individuals who commented about Adams' website include astronomer and
blogger Phil Plait, PZ Myers, and Mark Hoofnagle. In 2011 and 2015
Brian Dunning listed NaturalNews.com as #1 on his "Top 10 Worst
Anti-Science Websites" lists. Adams is listed as a "promoter of
questionable methods" by Quackwatch. Robert T. Carroll at The
Skeptic's Dictionary said, "Natural News is not a very good source for information. If you don't trust me on this, go to Respectful Insolence
or any of the other bloggers on ScienceBlogs and do a search for
"Natural News" or "Mike Adams" (who is Natural News). Hundreds of
entries will be found and not one of them will have a good word to say
about Mike Adams as a source."
According to The Atlantic, Natural News is one of the most prominent anti-vaccination websites on Facebook. An article in the journal
Vaccine said the site "tend(s) to not only spread irresponsible health information in general (e.g. discouraging chemotherapy or radiation
for cancer treatment, antiretrovirals for HIV, and insulin for
diabetes), but also have large sections with dubious information on vaccines."
After Patrick Swayze died in 2009, Adams posted an article in which he remarked that Swayze, in dying, "joins many other celebrities who have
been recently killed by pharmaceuticals or chemotherapy." Commentators
of Adams' article on Patrick Swayze included bloggers such as David
Gorski and Phil Plait, the latter of whom called Adams' commentary
"obnoxious and loathsome." When Angelina Jolie underwent a double
mastectomy in May 2013 because she had a mutation in the BRCA1 gene,
Adams stated that "Countless millions of women carry the BRCA1 gene
and never express breast cancer because they lead healthy, anti-cancer lifestyles based on smart nutrition, exercise, sensible sunlight
exposure and avoidance of cancer-causing chemicals." Gorski called the article "vile" and noted that Adams had written similarly themed
articles about the death of Michael Jackson, Tony Snow, and Tim Russert.
In February 2014, Brian Palmer, writing in the Daily Herald of
Arlington Heights, Illinois, criticized the site's promotion of
alternative medicine treatments, such as bathing in Himalayan salt and
eating Hijiki seaweed, and referred to the claims Natural News made
about their efficacy as "preposterous." In August 2014, Nathanael
Johnson, writing for Grist, dismissed Natural News as "simply not
credible" and as "nothing but a conspiracy-theory site."
On August 11, 2014, Natural News published a blog post promoting a homeopathic treatment for Ebola, which was met with harsh criticism
from several commentators, and was taken down later that day. In a
statement on the article, NaturalNews said that the blogger who posted
the article, Ken Oftedal, was "under review" and that they did not
condone anyone interacting with Ebola. However, as of August 20, 2014,
the site was still featuring an article written by Adams promoting the
use of herbal medicines to treat Ebola. In an article about "fake
Ebola cures", Adams was criticized for arguing that herbs could prove effective as an Ebola treatment.
On December 8, 2016, Michael V. LeVine, writing in Business Insider, criticized the site as part of a scientific fake news epidemic:
"Snake-oil salesmen have pushed false cures since the dawn of
medicine, and now websites like Natural News flood social media with dangerous anti-pharmaceutical, anti-vaccination and anti-GMO
pseudoscience that puts millions at risk of contracting preventable illnesses."
On February 22, 2017, Google delisted about 140,000 pages on Natural
News, removing it from search results. It was returned soon after. The following year, on March 3, 2018, YouTube removed Natural News' video
channel for terms of service violations, effectively removing its
library of videos from the site. The channel was subsequently
reinstated and the videos returned. In June 2019, Facebook removed
Natural News from its website for violating its policies against spam.
Adams wrote on InfoWars that his site was "permanently banned" from
Facebook, and on The Gateway Pundit that the ban was part of a
conspiracy against his website.
Notable claims
In 2011, Adams posted a report on Natural News which stated that many blueberry food products did not contain real blueberries.
In 2013, Adams posted an article describing what he saw when he
examined Chicken McNuggets under a microscope. He said in the article
that the patterns he saw included "dark black hair-like structures"
and a round algae-like object.
In July 2014 Adams compared media outlets that wrote positively about
GMOs with Nazi Germany's propagandists, calling them, "Monsanto
collaborators who have signed on to accelerate heinous crimes being
committed against humanity under the false promise of 'feeding the
world' with toxic GMOs." He continued with a statement that he set in boldface: "that it is the moral right—and even the obligation—of human beings everywhere to actively plan and carry out the killing of those
engaged in heinous crimes against humanity." A day after the post a
website called "Monsanto Collaborator" appeared online which listed
the names of scientists and journalists who allegedly collaborate with
the bio industry; Adams denied creating the website claiming that
Monsanto set up the website in order to frame him.
In 2019, Natural News falsely claimed that wind turbines contribute
more to climate change than fossil fuels.

It's a de-facto religion at this point - you're not going
to talk them out of it. More likely they'll just dig in their
heels even deeper.
And hmmmm ... maybe the reason it's being seen in the vaxxed
is because they're the only ones to live long enough to make
it to clinic ?

Choose carefully who you trust and worship at the church of Fauci.
