Original Note:
The UW study on Glyphosate linked to cancer was not "buried by the mainstream media" nor was it "this week". The study was from 2019, and was widely publicized. Examples: https://www.washington.edu/news/2019/02/13/uw-study-exposure-to-chemical-in-roundup-increases-risk-for-cancer/ https://www.washington.edu/news/2019/02/13/uw-study-exposure-to-chemical-in-roundup-increases-risk-for-cancer/ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jul/09/weedkiller-glyphosate-cdc-study-urine-samples Additionally, many studies have shown no cancer link at incidental exposure levels. https://www.cancercenter.com/community/blog/2021/07/does-glyphosate-cause-cancer
