Retired psychiatrist and author of Quackwatch, a mission to slam holistic medicine and call it all “quack” medicine, has been officially declared by the US Court System to be “Biased, and unworthy of credibility.”

In a lawsuit in Canada Barrett admitted to the following: (1)

“The sole purpose of the activities of Barrett & Baratz are to discredit and cause damage and harm to health care practitioners, businesses that make alternative health therapies or products available, and advocates of non-allopathic therapies and health freedom.”

Barrett is an “advisor” and “fellow” at propaganda organizations ACSH and CSI, two major fronts for the biotech industry and their toxic GMO

ACSH, American Council on Science and Health, was founded with funding from the junk food and tobacco industries

Before launching ACSH, Elizabeth Whelan wrote books promoting chemicals and additives in food, and the book jacket cover to “Panic in the Pantry” said, “Eat your additives, they’re good for you.” By the early 1980s, ACSH’s donors included Dow, Monsanto, Mobil Foundation, Chevron and Bethlehem Steel. In 1984, ACSH helped Georgia-Pacific, a leading formaldehyde maker, get a court ruling overturned that would have banned formaldehyde insulation. Much like the AMA, the American Medical Association, ACSH hires known criminals to “run the show.” The current executive director and acting president of ACSH, Dr. Gilbert Ross, had his license to practice medicine revoked in 1995 for personal misconduct and was sentenced to three-plus years in prison and was ordered to pay restitution for scheming and defrauding New York’s Medicaid program. This is where Barrett serves as an “advisor” currently, where the “junk science” council reigns on, and where the original founder, Elizabeth Whelan, the “Junk Food Queen,” is an infamous legend–for her defense of companies that make products with low or no nutritional value at all, and that contain known carcinogens.

ACSH takes the position that calling conventionally processed foods “junk science” promotes unnecessary fear among the population that too many ingredients in foods are implicated as cancer-causing agents, although one in every three Americans will get cancer in their lifetime

Still, Barrett and his cohorts at ACSH try to discredit any concerns about the food industry and food products that have been proven toxic by the very science they claim to be protecting from health enthusiasts. Another known hack and repeat offender writes for ACSH, a man by the name of Jon Entine, who’s been fired from Forbes.com because his reputation as a shill precedes him.

CSI is even worse. The Committee for Skeptical Inquiry has one mission, and that is, through multi-media, to convince all Americans that there is no danger whatsoever in consuming GMOs, genetically modified organisms in food, which means people should never be worried about eating synthetic, chemical pesticides and toxic herbicides, whether they are contained in the plants genes. This is where Barrett serves as a fellow. He’s also a peer review panelist for a couple medical journals.
