And the New York Times, of all places. PZ Myers simplifies it greatly:
Please, New York Times, we don’t need yoqr help if all you can do is shuffle credulous journalists with no understanding of the issues through the story. If you aren’t going to put someone on the case who understands biology (like Carl Zimmer, for instance), don’t bother. All you’re accomplishing is to give frauds and charlatans and bible-bleating pseudoscientists respect they do not deserve.
If only we could not bother with them. Alas, their credibility has ghostly inertia: most of the readers seeing the articles will never hear from the people criticizing them for being written by fools.
