Bad studies are easy to find, easy to discard, easy to ignore. Most studies I've read on acupuncture, for example, are just awful Can't conclude anything from bad research!
But by only publishing positive studies, and only promoting the very best ones, industries can manipulate the narrative by using basic statistical fact: Do enough studies and some of them will be VERY positive
Some of them will be very negative too, but since you can control what gets published, people only see the good and never even hear about the bad
All of this to say: the industry can produce hundreds of amazingly well-done studies and STILL do things in a dodgy way, which is why you should support @senseaboutsci and pre-registration efforts everywhere!
