In the famously science-respecting WSJ opinion pages?

  In this case the piece is by Lawrence Krauss, a genuine physicist. It's not the WSJ's own science-denying imbeciles. Still ... Krauss is himself a bit of a bomb thrower, and when he went shopping for a place to hit at scientists, the WSJ was happy to have him.

    Who specifically are the WSJ "science-denying imbeciles"? Can you point to specific articles or opinion pieces?

      "The Earth Is Warming, but Is CO2 the Cause?" (https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-earth-is-warming-but-is-co2-the-cause-f44d2e6a https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-earth-is-warming-but-is-co2...). Lots of other examples. Separately, it is disappointing this thread was flagged. Krauss is a theoretical physicist (formerly at ASU) and I thought the article was a good one notwithstanding its appearance in the WSJ opinion section. Its relevance to science and society is appropriate for HN. (Edited for factual error.)

      The Editorial Board. If you don't believe me, ask the journalists who work there, who pled with then to stop trading off their hard won reputation for accuracy with their lies: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/07/24/wall-street-journal-letter/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/07/24/wall-street...

    Krauss was an Epstein associate and got himself forced out of Arizona State for being a sex pest.
