Sounds like a two-sided story.

The facts about rbST

Welcome to rbST Facts, an online resource of factual information about recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST), also known as recombinant bovine growth hormone. rbST Facts.org provides access to hundreds of documents focusing on the manufacture, use and impact of this dairy-production technology. These documents include reports, studies and findings from scientific and academic institutions and government and regulatory agencies, as well as news media reports and commentary from qualified scientific and professional authorities.

rbSTFacts.org neither endorses nor opposes the use of rbST. Its only goal is to provide a clearinghouse of scientifically-validated information about rbST.
Why rbSTFacts.org is needed

The development and use of rbST has been controversial. Certain issue-oriented advocacy groups – including those drawn from the animal rights and environmental movements, as well as "pure food" advocates and those opposed to the use of biotechnologies in the production of food – have been vocal in their criticism of rbST. Unfortunately, the arguments these opponents have put forward in their attempts to persuade others to their point of view have not always been based in scientific fact, or have constituted misunderstandings or distortions of scientific fact. Those asserting the safety and efficacy of rbST – including scientific institutions, government authorities and the dairy and pharmaceutical industries – have seen their reassurances dismissed and their credibility attacked. The debate between these two sides has played out largely in a news media that thrives on conflict and takes little responsibility for ascertaining and reporting the facts.
