The spending of any large industry on political influence concerns me.

But the link doesn't say much. Very similar arguments are used to discredit climate science ('big climate science') vaccinations ('big pharma') and things that do need discrediting ('big tobacco'). An argument like that has little signal, but it does allow people who are already convinced to post-hoc rationalise their position.
