Its quite easy to recognize, just see who funded the study and you see a trend of results supporting the funder.
Almost nobody takes the time to investigate a study. You are assuming the person knows the study is flawed to begin with.
How do you know the critique of a study is accurate? The critique deserves as much scrutiny as the original until it can be verified. Otherwise it would be cherry picking data to simply stop when we find an answer that fits our beliefs without doing the same investigation of its statements and sources.
