Scientific Journals’ Bias, Rants, And Partisanship Are Giving Real Science A Drubbing
by Post Editorial Board Nov 12, 2024
Scientific American chief editor Laura Helmuth apologized Friday for her utterly classless Election Night rants against Donald Trump and his voters. It’s a start, but a lot of self-examination needs to follow. [emphasis, links added]
And not just by her.
Her expletive-filled posts were plain embarrassing, e.g., “Solidarity to everybody whose meanest, dumbest, most bigoted high-school classmates are celebrating early results because f–k them to the moon and back.”
She’s in her 50s and she’s still obsessed with high school?
Helmuth vented at least three times on Bluesky (one of those X alternatives for libs who can’t bear disagreement), blaring her unprofessional lack of scientific detachment.
