I thought this was going to be about another sex scandal.

I was wondering what the inspiration for the Scrappleface article was. This must be it.

Fortunately, this guy will be abble to find a teaching/research position at the same American university that employs Ward Churchill. In fact, it sounds like he would raise the level of integrity at that school.

He may have lied and faked his way on invented data, but hey, at least he wasnt a Creationist. Are you sure about that? He misidentified modern humans as Neandertals. That's classic creationist.

This seems to be real. I've found a couple of other news stories about it. There's an earlier thread on this (by a couple of minutes), but it's already wucked up, and it has an odd title, so let's stick with this one.

Here's another article with more info. The guy seems to be a total nutcase:
German scholar is exposed as fraud.
The creationoids will have a ball with this. They can add it to their tiny list of fraudulent finds, like Piltdown Man. But it should be noted that the frauds were exposed by scientists, not creationists (who deny the validity of the means used to test the fossils).

well, one of the scientific method's true strengths is its innate tendency towards self-correction through constant re-evaluation.
but, yes, the uber-creationists will have a field day over this.
oh, well: even a stopped clock...

yes, the uber-creationists will have a field day over this. At any moment now they'll be here, screaming that this "proves" the reality of Noah's Ark, the 6,000 year age of the universe, the collapse of everything we know about biology, etc.

Indeed. Science is self-correcting, and this man will be marginalized and discredited. If only other fields of endeavor had the same standards...
There have been one or two other high profile cases in recent years. There was a young physicist who was on the road to superstardom and got caught pretty quickly (he was German I think, working at Bell Labs), and a veteran Danish ecologist who worked on swallows (I'm not sure how his case turned out in the end). I heard also that that guy Lomborg, the author of that book The Skeptical Environmentalist, was having one or two problems in this area in his native Denmark.
