The problem with his letter (and those against Monsanto) is that it is a huge corp with a long history. It (as far as 'it' can be applied, Ship of Theseus territory here.) has done terrible things that anyone can cherry pick to make it the most evil company in the world; but it does great things that people can cherry pick to make it seem great! So people arguing about The Climate Corporation joining Monsanto will never agree because they each have their picked samples and there is no "Evil formulae" for determining the overall evilness of a company. Having said that, the fact that he is being offered $1 Billion before knowing about the company does make one wonder how much research he did into the dark sides of Monsanto of if he avoided / rationalized it to support his bias, even if subconciously. He comes out overall positive it is easy for people to accuse him of not researching the bad things.
