There are 2 main factors that lead to the false persecution of Roundup.
1-in the early 80s the rumor began floating around the Roundup was Agent Orange, just with a new name.
2-early in the 90s Monsanto began to get an unjust bad name which has snowballed in the years to follow.
BTW there has never been a direct connection between Agent Orange and cancer either. Yes the government caved to the law suits. It was just cheaper to settle than fight it. And the California verdict in this thread somewhat proves their thinking.
