European investigators last week confirmed that a pioneering oral cancer researcher in Norway had fabricated much of his work. The news left experts in his field with a pressing question: What should they believe now? Suppose his findings, which precisely identified people at high risk of the deadly disease, were accurate even though data were faked?

Supposing pigs could fly?

I'd say modern scientists are payed for their results. Their employers know their normative stand on a given research issue and use it to predict the outcome of the 'research'. This makes them more like hired guns than actual scientists.
