There’s Fiona Fox’s outrageous claim that the way the BBC could really improve its science coverage is to have fewer sceptics. She says: “To have a sceptic or contrarian in every interview is really misleading the public.” Luckily, she enthuses, the BBC is doing a fine job of correcting this grotesque imbalance. “With Climate Science there’s been a real change with people like Richard Black and Roger Harrabin fighting internally … Continue reading
Spot what’s missing from this report about Nicolas Anelka making what is reported to be a re-invention of the Nazi salute: Nicolas Anelka: West Brom striker ‘surprised by celebration criticism’ Anelka converted to Islam in 2004.
