Science, Truth, and Politics 0
I found yesterday’s Fresh Air radio show to be very interesting.
First, Terry Gross interviewed Chris Mooney about his book: The Republican War on Science, which contends (according the description on the WHYY website) that “that the Bush administration has distorted research and misinformed the public on issues ranging from stem-cell research to global warming. The motivation, Mooney argues, is political power.”
She followed that with an interview of Robert Walker, identified as “a retired congressman from Pennsylvania who served as chairman of the Science Committee, (who) responds to (Mooney’s) allegations.”
Listen to it here.
