The whole "power poser" fiasco is a huge warning sign that science is well on the way to total failure. The problem is that scientists don't learn on their own, they are taught by other scientists what is acceptable or not. When the teachers are corrupted all the students follow and nobody knows anymore what is science. The really worrying thing is that Cuddy and Fiske believe that they are doing science. They are amoral, not immoral.
