“Interestingly my latest Discover Magazine had an article that actually showed the other side of the global warming issue. I was stunned.”
I had to cancel Scientific American because it had become too biased. They have gone after Lomborg viciously (in between their relentless hyping of stem cells, bashing of creationists, and occasional flaking out, like when they did a puff piece on Rep Waxman).
Now, I’ve noticed that National Geographic is mired in bias as well, with a recent propaganda piece about greenland ice melting that was so hyperbolic I had to explain to the kids how that wan’t really scientifically accurate fear. Some time ago they did one on running out of oil (no we’re not, but fearmongering sells).
If Discover avoids the bias that the other mags have, they are the one to buy.
They still have a bias, I like Science News better, nice short articles too. I remember we got NG for years and years (even as a kid and then when I grew up I got it) until I realized they had such a liberal slant, that I just stopped. It’s a shame because all of those mags have some good stuff in them too.
Now...why doesn’t National Review do a science magazine??
