Man, that has the ring of totalitarianism in it.
No kidding.....
.....They manipulate what studies are done, what conclusions are made, what gets funding and what does not, which reports are written.....
.....And then say the “Federal scientists may speak to the media and the public about scientific and technological matters based on their official work,” but then adds a caveat: “with appropriate coordination with their immediate supervisor and their public affairs office.”
Talk about manipulated science under the guise of scientific freedom from manipulation...
