Fake Science: Where did it come from? Well as they say, follow the money:
Also contributing to the emergence of Fake Science is the use of science as a cudgel in policy wars, a primary tactic of what is known as Post-Normal Science. Think of it as sociology on steroids, identifying as science.
And there will be no more questions because the science is settled.
Ooh ooh ooh! Do Fake News next MOTUS!

Well if everybody producing a report has the same OPINION of what they wanted the outcome to be, then we have to rely on INTEGRITY to make sure the reports are accurate.
Yeah, I know.
Which is why there is focus on Data Integrity - 21cfr 210, 211, 820, ICH Q7, etc - in the medicinal products arena.
I just did a quick google of 21cfr etc. as I had no idea what they were :)
Data Integrity is everything.
I wouldnt worry about it. Any drug company funding research to get pre-determined results instead of useful drugs will be out of business soon enough.
I propose, that any scientific study or research, that is funded with my money(!) be held accountable to the applicable GxPs - Good Laboratory Practices, Good Documentation Practices.
There are plenty of auditors, guidance documents, contract providers, software- everything needed- to spin up AND enforce such a standard.
