Politics driven by hatred and rage is antithetical to the scientific method, AND conveying science to the masses

Upvoted. But the problem is that the company owning Scientific American is a WOKE leftist company; and so the chances are good that they are not yet finished gut-stomping that once venerable and formerly credible publication into the ideological leftist muck.

Probably more of a journalist than a scientist.

That certainly seems true.

But even the editor-in-chief of a science magazine is - or should be - dealing with scientific content.

Like anything else corrupted by moonbat politics, the Scientific American has lost all credibility. Years ago, it was an interesting read. Now, it just needs to go away.
