New Scientist is not a scientific magazine. It cannot be relied upon to write unbiased fact based articles on scientific topics. The journalists don’t appear to have the enquiring, analytical style that I expect from a science article. They are very forthcoming with their own opinions but not with scientific evidence, analysis and references. I get my scientific news from a variety of main stream online newspapers following the Health and Science writers and they’re much better at writing a balanced, fact based piece than a supposedly scientific magazine! I have asked for a refund of my subscription for this reason. Let’s see what happens.
