關於這部電影

講述了一群有影響力的科學決策者，如何干擾公眾了解科學事實，以便推進某種政治和經濟議程。在公眾健康和環境科學研究方面，美國科學界長期居於世界領導地位。科學家對於煙草煙霧、酸雨和全球暖化等危險，進行了具有里程碑意義的探索。 但與此同時，該領域內一個看似渺小、實則強大的附屬組織，卻以公司的形式進行商業經營，一直極力否認這些危險，試圖通過質疑來達到干擾公共服務和政府職能的目的。

評分和評論

If you want your worst fears about the decline of rational American dialogue confirmed, this film should do the trick. While we all know that PR firms are paid to lie and deceive, to see Marc Morano brag about his ability to portray himself as an expert in a field about which he knows nothing and then go on to freely admit harassing his enemies with suggestions of physical violence via email is actually unnerving. What does it say about our situation when a man brags about his bad character. The film clearly shows how charlatans who peddled cigarettes are sometimes the very same charlatans who deny climate science. I'm going to try to have a public showing in our town.

Great movie. Best film based introduction I've ever seen to the dark art of industry sponsored science denial from scientists, historians, reporters and even a brave ex-politician. The film is both entertaining and informative. This film can get you started on a journey of learning that will help you separate out the junk science and the phony pseudo-scientists from real thing. After you see this movie, read the book.

Hi, This movie is above average. Trump is a merchant of doubt. Thanks. God bless. Aaron
