Flood of Fake Science Forces Multiple Journal Closures
Wall Street Journal ^ | 14/5/24

Posted on 06/01/2024 11:30:02 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Fake studies have flooded the publishers of top scientific journals, leading to thousands of retractions and millions of dollars in lost revenue. The biggest hit has come to Wiley, a 217-year-old publisher based in Hoboken, N.J., which Tuesday will announce that it is closing 19 journals, some of which were infected by large-scale research fraud.

Paywall.

Don’t forget that all white people are racists. It’s caused by melanin deficiency and being ice people.

More accurately, “There has been a flood of political money from idealistic bureaucrats poured on those “scientists” who will produce “articles and papers” defining, defending, and determining what will become whatever those bureaucrats want.”

Fauci’s POWER was determining WHO will get national research money first for AIDS, then for lab money, then for new labs, then for COVID “research”.

Global Warming has funded ALL “Climate Research” since the late 1980s.

Homosexual then Transgender interests has funded ALL psychology and sociology research since Obama was in power.

Clovin and racist (BLM) communists have controlled race relations since Clinton’s administration.

The article seems to focus on “paper mills” where very flawed papers get published. It doesn’t mention the many papers that are written by “worthy scientists” where the results are subtly tweaked to match the prevailing beliefs so as to get funding. Climate “science” would fit into this category.

With all the junk out there, what can the researchers and scientists do to determine “when the rot set in” their fields of study? How do they move forward from that?

Maybe they’ll merge with L. Ron Hubbard’s church.

See #10 for an example of the “scientific” method as it now stands.

I bet I could get funding if I submitted a paper titled “How climate change affects the pubic hair on marmots’ testicles.”

No way. It's already been published.

One of the biggest scams was the B$ re our so called dangerous fat/lipid levels.

Just go on the med diet and focus on the local fresh fruits and veggies..Walk when you can and forget the negative B$ers and a$$holes in your life.

I just got back my worthless lipid panel, as required annually for someone over 50 in my health provider group. I’m in my mid 80’s.

FASTING LIPID PANEL
Collected on July 26, 2024 7:19 AM, showed normal results for young guys, let alone an old goat.

It ain’t just Covid which is a bad deal for patients.
