A Reader Makes an Interesting Point About the Media and Cloning

This note from a reader seems right to me: “I have noticed in stories about Hwang’s research, the media almost always gets SCNT right. But when it comes to an initiative or funding in the U.S. they always get it wrong and overtly refuse to get it right. It is really curious. Maybe it is because Hwang clearly claimed to have cloned embryos and his papers say exactly that, or maybe it is because when possible votes from Average Joe American are involved, obfuscation is the name of the game.”
