Wow impaul99, thanks for posting that. I thought you had it wrong and that quackbusters was a different entity from quackwatch but I found this on the link to the quackbusters page
PART THREE of the plan, was a propaganda gambit. It was in two parts (a) create a so-called "information base." Websites appeared, sounding authoritative, like Stephen Barrett's sleazy "quackwatch.com," and others. The questionable organization, the National Council Against Health Fraud (NCAHF), was to provide so-called "expert witnesses" for testimony. The FSMB was to act as a clearinghouse, both for names of people suggested for prosecution (persecution), and for where to find "information" and "expert witnesses."
It seems the site was set up to demonize proponents of alternative medicines, in order to keep the money flowing to big pharmaceutical companies. Eye opener
