Back then, the corporate theme was "the science isn't settled - we need more study." Now, they just resort to character assassination.

We've gone from "the science isn't settled" to "the science can't be trusted." The United States once prospered from it's science and technology. Is it a coincidence that we're having this paradigm shift as the US declines into third world debtor nation status? I don't think so.
