The media and science.

Should people with no knowledge of science be allowed to be writing all of these articles about it? Most "science" related articles you read online are not written by scientists. The scientists will not actually write or communicate with the public very often they simply talk to each other because the public is not capable of understanding their research usually.

These articles by the mass media outlets often contain completely incorrect "science" written by college students who don't understand what they are talking about at all.

Look at the way this real article talks about the big bang theory, "an explosion," and "13.8 billion years ago," (that's off by millions of years), "that it produced conditions for certain elements to develop," what? That's so vague because the author has no idea what they are talking about. "On the verge of being dramatically overturned." No it's not at all, the big bang only gets more and more evidence that it was real each passing day. Who's idea was it to let stupid people write the media articles that cause the public to become more stupid by reading it, thus infecting more people?

>"A scientist who claims the ***event*** never happened"
>"According to a ***study***"

All of these media people act, so similar...

They all use the same bullshit wording and completely content-less articles.

Of course I do believe in the freedom of the press but that means the freedom of the press to actually be smart sometimes as well, it looks like this pseudo-science is the only science allowed in the media these days which is not freedom of the press.
