USA Today: Wegman is Being Investigated
According to USA Today, “Officials at George Mason University confirmed Thursday that they are investigating plagiarism and misconduct charges made against a noted climate science critic.”
In my previous blog post, Wegman-gate: Alert Congress & the Media, I asked readers to alert the media and their elected officials about the Wegman Report. As detailed in John Mashey on Strange Scholarship in the Wegman Report, the Wegman report was “a facade for a PR campaign well-honed by Washington, DC ‘think tanks’ and allies, underway for years.”
I hope you will join me in writing to media and government contacts to ask them:
“USA Today is covering this story. Maybe you should look into this also?”
