COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
'When officials use
the phrase "alternative facts" without embarrassment, we know there’s
a problem,'
An absolutely ridiculous article.
Apart from a deliberate attempt to malign and having no
content worth calling journalism, you are confusing apples with oranges.
There is no evidence whatsoever that Trump doesn't accept
science, genuine science.
Of course, one of the problems is that some scientists have
themselves been claiming more than the evidence warrants in certain cases.
Surely, the writer well knows the tiresomely repeated
"alternative facts" business had to do with political matters, not
science.
Gee, to understand what alternative facts are, all you have
to do is read almost any of the major British papers on subjects like Trump,
Corbyn, Brexit, Syria, etc.
