Monsanto papers : manufacturing doubt Tristan Waleckx Director 38M This investigation starts with an exclusive interview with Dewayne Johnson, a 46-year old former groundskeeper, who won a historic verdict against Monsanto. He was the first person to take the agrochemical corporation to trial over allegations that the chemical sold under the brand Roundup causes cancer. Dewayne Johnson won this judicial fight thanks to the disclosure of thousands of confidential papers, the ‘Monsanto papers’. They are a treasure trove of internal documents released since 2017 as part of the US lawsuit by cancer victims against Monsanto. They reveal a lot about how the company subverts science and the way it abuses regulators to push for its interests.
