A couple of years ago, radio talk show host Glenn Beck announced he was going blind. Alex Jones and his Infowars staff wrote several articles showing that aspartame is linked to macular dsytropy, and GB drank it all day long. GB and his staff ridiculed AJ and his staff on air, and the whole controversy was picked up by the mainstream media. Here's a link to the Infowars article with links to various supporting documents listing the side-effects of aspartame:

If that wasn't bad enough, a study on humans came out earlier this week linking aspartame to leukemia and lymphoma:
