DESCRIPTION:San Francisco Green Film Festival presents a special screening of Merchants 
 of Doubt.\n\nA month into the new White House administration, in a world 
 where post-truth rules the airwaves, Robert Kenner’s film Merchants of 
 Doubt will be more relevant than ever.\n\nClimate-deniers have their own 
 spin tactics and they’re using them to take over our government offices. 
 They tested their tricks in the tobacco industry, and now they’re aiming 
 them at the environmental movement.\n\nMerchants of Doubt lifts the curtain 
 on a secretive group of highly charismatic, silver- tongued 
 pundits-for-hire. They present themselves in the media as scientific 
 authorities – yet have the contrary aim of spreading maximum confusion 
 about well-studied public threats ranging from toxic chemicals to 
 pharmaceuticals to climate change.\n\nInspired by the acclaimed book by 
 Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, Merchants of Doubt takes audiences on a 
 satirically comedic, yet illuminating ride into the heart of conjuring 
 American spin.\n\nAt this special screening and discussion we’ll learn 
 their spin tactics, so we can all stand up to them.\n\nWebsite:
