> if science is conducted properly, it lays out in public the available objective evidence for its truths and invite anyone to come and investigate, and falsify the claims if they have sufficient evidence to the contrary
This is true statement, but it doesn't mean any given piece of knowledge produced by science is actually battle-tested. See the replication crisis.
Yet as soon as a published paper gets an idea from their abstract into The News (TM), that interpretation (potentially misunderstood or embellished by the journo) is "facts" and "science."
