Cultural Dwarfs and Junk Journalism is ’s fourth book charting

the development of the corporate science lobby that has grown rapidly since

New Labour came to power in 1997. One of the most recent exponents of the

Lobby is Dr Ben Goldacre who has regurgitated a bad ‘Science’ column in the

Guardian newspaper since 2003.

Like other quackbusters Goldacre claims to write factually based and

scientifically accurate articles about health, medicine and science either

supporting scientists and doctors or criticising individuals involved in

alternative or nutritional health care. Goldacre’s writing, however,

actually reflects the ideology of powerful industrial, technological and

political vested interests.

Goldacre who it is claimed is a Junior doctor working in a London NHS

hospital is actually a clinical researcher working at the centre of New

Labour’s Orwellian spin operation that puts a sympathetic gloss on anything

shown to create adverse reactions from MMR to Wi-Fi, while at the same

time undermining cost-effective and long tried alternative therapies such

as acupuncture and homoeopathy. Goldacre is involved with public health

researchers well known for trying to prove that those who claim to be

adversely affected by pollutants in our modern high-technology society,

suffer from ‘false illness beliefs’.

Cultural Dwarfs and Junk Journalism, investigates Goldacre’s role in

industry lobby groups and puts another point of view in defense of some of

the people whom he has attacked, belittled, satirized, castigated,

vilified, maligned and opined against in his junk journalism.
