Many scientists that come out publicly against woo are being targeted.
David Gorski:

---> Mike Adams (natural news) has hinted at pedophilia, sexually abusing his patients and even targeted the cancer center he works at.
Kevin Folta :

Harassed by The food Babe and other quacks to point that he had to step away from publicly posting anything (he is back now). It was relentless and they were able to get a FOIP request approved and get all his emails and made them public.
Steven Novella/Jay Novella/Science Based Medicine :

---> They called out a quack and he responded with a libel lawsuit that cost hundred of thousands of dollars, even-though they won.
Seems like there is a concerted effort out there from Quacks to try and shut down any criticism.
