There's no study to rebut. We're talking about something published by a student in an undergraduate newspaper. The information I've looked at is clearly wrong, as I've highlighted elsewhere in these comments. I used "suppress" because you wrote "suppress true research results" - given your qualifiers, I assumed you thought suppression was appropriate for other contexts. For example, isn't retracting a paper a way suppress the propagation of egregiously wrong research results?
