“Science in the media is often framed as a form of entertainment, not as necessarily critical information. In Selling Science (1987), Dorothy Nelkin reminds us that scientists fill a role in press coverage: they appear as “wizards,” superior in knowledge and intelligence to the rest of us. The media portrayal of scientists creates a serious misconception of how science works. And, it places scientists on a pedestal of authority. Nelkin also says that press coverage of scientific findings is framed to appeal to the public’s desire for an easy solution to problem issues. By not presenting the entire process of scientific inquiry or discovery and by de-emphasizing important points of dispute or possible error, journalists leave readers with little to judge the reasonableness or truth of such findings, or even if they are scientific at all.”
