All I can add is that peer-review is better than not peer-reviewed. There is no other system in place that better assures objective reporting. Full disclosure of the funding source is also part of that process, allowing the reader to take that into consideration when assessing the likely reliability and potential bias of the paper.
I am NOT saying that anyone thinks peer-review is perfect, but it is taken seriously in the academic world.
