My rep is only -21? WTF is wrong with you people

Let me post an 'article' from Casper's favorite internets for idiots:  http://rt.com/news/stem-cell-study-retraction-070/

 

 

Now let me post a link about the same issue from the 'lamestream' media:  http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/11/business/one-author-of-a-stem-cell-study-calls-for-its-retraction.html?hpw&rref=business&_r=0

 

Many of you may immediately dismiss the nytimes article but if you actually read both of them, one has actual detail, does'nt try to cloud the reproduction of the research, and one just includes all the 'OMG' with minimal explanation of how this actually works within the scientific community..  You see, it is easy to report in such a way as to totally disregard the scientific method when ones readership doesn't want to be bothered with the pesky details and the 'messiness' of actual science.  When we drop links without researching the issue because we want to believe, we are doing a disservice to each other.

 

Now come on and get my negative rep up over 40, otherwise I will just have to think that you are all part of the 47%!

If you keep flappin your e-jibs and spewing counter contributory bullshit like a poo flingin monkey whilst swingin' on Caspers nadbag......we'll be glad to neg rep you into a state of infamy never before seen here.  So stick with what you're good at, if not just for our sheer entertainment value alone

I agree, rep whoring is rep whoring no matter what direction you want to go in.

 

Edit: Decided to give him pos rep.
