“The Wellness and Health Freedom Empire” | An extended excerpt from my forthcoming book with @peterhotez, #ScienceUnderSiege in the new (September/October) issue of #skepticalinquirer

Busting myths? You might be doing it wrong.

#Prebunking and #Debunking can backfire—unless you follow evidence-informed strategies.

New article / preprint (soon in Skeptical Inquirer):

Where's the evidence to support this claim? What is the mainstream media doing with this claim? Has it been researched by people knowledgeable in this area? #SkepticalInquirer @stephenhupp.bsky.social

@dreed I remember well the warm feeling mixed with pride when my #SkepticalInquirer article came out. Enjoy the front page! (And knowing that I'm kind of jealous of you. 😉)

Hey everyone,

I received my pre-release contributor's copies of the upcoming January issue of the Skeptical Inquirer today! I am thrilled that my investigation and subsequent article on "The Case of the Devil's Baby of Ravenswood" is the cover story for the issue! I am honored beyond measure, humbled, and amazed. I would never have believed it possible that I would have a cover story on a national publication. It is a dream come true.

I appreciate everyone who put the time and effort into me that are the people who made this possible, especially Benjamin Radford and the late Kendrick Frazier. You can read Ken's final note to the readers in this issue.

If it isn't an imposition, I would appreciate any boosts that you would be willing to give this post to help me celebrate. Thank you all so very much.
