Follow the ScienceWhen you voice your opinion cite the source.
Peer Reviewed Science Journals show their sources. A hypothesis is stated followed by data and an analysis of that data.
A theory is proposed. The experiment must be repeatable by the peers in the field of study when possible.
All sources must be cited. All instruments used to collect data are listed.
Another important issue is whether a statement concerning conflict of interest is stated. Who paid for the research?
Was the data cherry picked or was all data used because a sponsor might consider some data irrelevant when it is indeed relevant.
Did the author own stock or have a financial interest in the collection of his data.
Science is constantly evolving and moving forward. A theory today might change in 4 years.
Peer Reviewed Science Journals are not perfect, but it is much better than reading something a journalist wrote that did not cite his source
other than "from a reliable source'"
This is my two cents on Follow the Science.
