Today is Bizzaro News Day -- Multivariate statistics gets its own petition. Only in California


By Mike Adams, The Health Ranger & Anthony Gucciardi:
"The fatally flawed Stanford study claiming that organic food is the same as conventional was conducted by Ingram Olkin, a known statistical 'liar' for Big Tobacco companies. It failed to examine key food issues such as the use of GMOs, high-fructose corn syrup, mercury in the food supply, and countless other factors.
Stanford University has also been found to have deep financial ties to Cargill, a powerful proponent of genetically engineered foods and an enemy of GMO labeling Proposition 37.
The study was authored by the very many who invented a method of 'lying with statistics'. Olkin worked with Stanford University to develop a "multivariate" statistical algorithm, which is essentially a way to lie with statistics..."
Hmmm. A petition to stop use of the evil mathematical algorithm? Their defense is to ban logic and evidence altogether. WTF.

  1. Mike Adams is a particularly poor example of a human being.

    He is a conspiracy theory nut, even made a lot of mileage out of the Aura shootings with all sorts of insulting claims. Mike can be safely ignored on just about any topic.
