Note to Reader: The following information is taken directly from the Wikipedia article on Gary Null.
"Gary Michael Null (born 1945) is an American talk radio host and author.[1] He advocates alternative medicine and naturopathy. On his radio show, and in books and self-produced movies, Null criticizes the medical community, promotes a range of alternative cancer treatments, denies that HIV causes AIDS,[2] and promotes dietary supplements which he produces. Starting in 1979 and continuing through the 1980s, Null helped produce two series of articles for Penthouse, entitled "The Politics of Cancer" and "Medical Genocide".[1]
Other information in the article and other sources say that Gary Null & Associates runs a health food store in New York City. The news sources say that Null once became seriously ill and had to go to the hospital after eating food sold in his store. He then in 2010 sued Triarco Industries which manufactured "Gary Null's Ultimate power Meal." Currently Null is involved in a documentary with an current advertising campaign tie in with "Buck Marshall" a Chipolte produced comedy series on Hulu that lampoons the processed food industry.
His documentary voices several concerns that I am aware of and know to be true, so I started researching on the internet to find out who was behind the documentary. I was disappointed to find out that Null seems to be a crackpot who is more concerned about attacking his competition than he is with the truth. news sources report that he used to do documentaries for PBS until PBS cut it's association with him due to concerns over the dubiously sensational claims he made in them.
This is the slightly edited (for better factual accuracy) text of my email to Null at his site:
"I watched your humorous character, Buck (Marshall), who is promoting your documentary and was instantly intrigued because I am well aware of the stranglehold the food conglomerates like Monsanto and privately held Cargill (which would rank #9 on the Fortune 500 List, according to the Wikipedia article, if it were a public company) have over our politics and governments worldwide and the may unfair and potentially unhealthy practices and policies that has spawned.
So I try to look up "Seeds of Death" (if hyperbole was a young Victorian lass, she would blush & faint) in the Wikipedia, which is a source of information that, while not always completely correct (who is, you? lol) seems to be overall fair, balanced and not shy about pointing out the merit of media campaigns such as yours that do have merit as yours does, which is unfortunately demolished by your sensationalism, unproven claims and ludicrous position that not only Monsanto is waging a ware on health for profit's sake, but so also is the entire legitimate scientific community who somehow I guess in your feeble mind is sharing in Monsanto's wealth with them even though real journalists--not you--investigate conspiracies by tracking the flow of the dollar.
But I didn't find anything until I found your name and then looked that up. Then what I found is that you yourself, while decrying the conflict of interest of others, have plenty yourself and have even hypocritically ,reported the processors of your own food supplements for poisoning you while not admitting your own conflict of interest. Everyone who watches legitimate news and investigative reporting on these subject also knows that the lack of regulation, potential health risks, underlabelling and underregulation that you decry about the big conglomerates, the "natural" food industry also hides behind, the only difference being that they don't have expensive labs to turn out genetic mutations to use to sue small farmers off their lands, a fact which your "documentary" blithely overlooks.
Then I was both dismayed and relieved to find out that your shows have appeared on PBS, luckily that somebody at PBS realized that you're a wolf pup who wants in on Monsanto's action. I notice that your documentaries and advertisements rightfully pillory Monsanto but leave out the rest of the huge food and chemical conglomerates, mainly Cargill.
All in all, my sense is that your notoriety and advocacy of your own unproven diets and medical alternatives is doing more harm than good because according to the Wikipedia, you are attacking legitimate body of science that is against the practices and procedures of Monsanto to promote your own dubious claims, thereby poisoning the efficacy of legitimate science in the fields. You sir, are the Joseph McCarthy of the 2nd Millennium."
