Is the Alliance for Science’s lead researcher on misinformation a pathological liar?
by Jonathan Matthews, April 18, 2023
Mark Lynas yet again fabricates his past and smears friends and former associates.
Amid rising concerns about fake news and misinformation, the Gates-funded Alliance for Science has taken to promoting their long-time comms strategist Mark Lynas as an expert debunker of science-related conspiracy theories and disinformation campaigns. More recently, he has also been billed as their "research lead" into false claims about GMOs, COVID-19, vaccines and other controversies.
This has led to Lynas being cited as an expert and quoted by journalists in fact-checking articles. The irony here is not just that he lacks any scientific expertise – his only qualification being an undergraduate degree in history and politics, but that Lynas himself has been repeatedly called out for making inaccurate and misleading claims.
And his dubious record on factual accuracy has been thrown into the spotlight once again by new instances of flagrantly false claims – this time of environmentalists trashing research laboratories and engaging in Maoist-style denunciations.
