         flood social media with dangerous anti-pharmaceutical,   
         anti-vaccination and anti-GMO pseudoscience that puts millions at   
         risk of contracting preventable illnesses."[17]   
       

       

On February 22, 2017, Google        delisted about 140,000 pages on Natural News, removing it from        search results.[53]        It was returned soon after.[54]        The following year, on March 3, 2018, YouTube        removed Natural News' video channel for terms of service        violations, effectively removing its library of videos from the        site.[55]        The channel was subsequently reinstated and the videos returned.        In June 2019, Facebook removed Natural News from its        website for violating its policies against spam. Adams wrote on InfoWars        that his site was "permanently banned" from Facebook, and on The Gateway Pundit that the        ban was part of a conspiracy against his website.[56]       

       

A 2020 study by researchers from Northeastern, Harvard, Northwestern and Rutgers universities found that        Natural News was among the top 5 most shared fake news domains in tweets        related to COVID-19, the others being The Gateway        Pundit, InfoWars, WorldNetDaily and Judicial Watch.[12]

In 2011, Adams posted a report on Natural News which stated that        many blueberry food products did not contain        real blueberries.[57][58]       

       

In 2013, Adams posted an article describing what he saw when he        examined Chicken McNuggets        under a microscope. He said in the article that the patterns he        saw included "dark black hair-like structures" and a round algae-like        object.[59][60]       

       

In July 2014, Adams compared media outlets that wrote positively        about GMOs with Nazi Germany's        propagandists, calling them, "Monsanto collaborators who have        signed on to accelerate heinous crimes being committed against        humanity under the false promise of 'feeding the world' with toxic        GMOs." He continued with a statement that he set in boldface: "that it is        the moral right—and even the obligation—of human beings everywhere        to actively plan and carry out the killing of those engaged in        heinous crimes against humanity."[61][62]        A day after the post a website called "Monsanto Collaborator"        appeared online which listed the names of scientists and        journalists who allegedly collaborate with the bio industry; Adams        denied creating the website claiming that Monsanto set up the        website in order to frame him.[63]       

       

In 2019, Natural News falsely claimed that wind turbines contribute more to climate change        than fossil fuels.[64]
