In this context, "widely acknowledged" means "posted on a bunch of crackpot websites" and/or "published by a crackpot author", with no scientific backing.

Other examples of this include:

The folks who believe that jet trails are actually chemicals being sprayed on us by "a secret government conspiracy": http://www.carnicom.com/contrails.htm.

The folks who believe that 9/11 was a secret government conspiracy to establish a New World Order: http://www.patriotsaints.com/News/911/Conspiracy/

The folks who believe that UFO's are "real".

The folks who believe that fluoride in our water supplies are "poisoning us", etc., etc.
