Reuters: Scientists Question Decision on Waste Site
Of course, if you read the article, you find that it is about two scientists who are questioning the decision. But apparently Reuters was unable to find even one scientist who was not questioning the decision–only politicians are cited in favor of the decision. Now, the Department of Energy has spent over $7 billion (yes, billion) studying Yucca Mountain before approving it as a nuclear waste disposal site. More than two scientists were involved in that process. Yet none of them are cited by Reuters. Well, if I can just find one other American to support me on this, then maybe I could use the headline “Americans Think Reuters Reporters Are Stupid.”
