The 'bullshit' was mostly not spread by scientists, but by media. When the findings of scientific studies are twisted and manipulated, and when a study that shows X is treated as if it proved X, and Y, and Z, there's no better word for that than 'bullshit science'. The studies were far too low quality to prove anything, or even show us what's directionally correct. What better term is there? It wasn't pseudoscience, because the studies were real, and addressed scientific topics. It wasn't scientific fraud, because again the studies were real. But the implications 'derived' from them by motivated media were completely made up. My dictionary calls that 'bullshit'.
