Doren,
College admins or deans do not pressure researchers to lie. If they did the rest of the faculty would rise up and get the admins fired.
On the contrary, the rest of the faculty often STFU when the political cards are stacked against them.

Look at what happened to the president of Stanford, for example:

Formerly About Advanced Micro Devices Message Board - Msg: 34357071 (siliconinvestor.com)
Formerly About Advanced Micro Devices Message Board - Msg: 34358162 (siliconinvestor.com)

No one in the faculty got the president fired for falsifying research data. Instead, it took the work of an 18-year-old freshman working for the school newspaper to get him fired.
Excepting of course CORPORATE "researchers" who are generally incompetent and so are hired by corporations to "prove" things and are paid corporate shills.
In the case of "research for PR," you are correct.

However, when the results of corporate research directly affect the viability of projects, and when billions of dollars of investment money depends on said research being dead-on-balls accurate, then you'll find that corporate-sponsored researchers are the MOST stringent adherents to quality, accurate, and the scientific process.

You don't get that from the climate change agenda, where upholding the narrative is more profitable than accuracy.
