there is a reason that scientists aren't reporting the news. for the most part scientists say things that are relatively common sense and not terribly exciting. the media words things to generate hype fear and Hysteria. so who do we listen to? well the media of course. listening to science you would end up with hard numbers and you hear things that tell you the reality of what's actually going on. when you listen to the media you get vagaries and wild exaggerations. which sounds like more fun to you? would you rather watch news pictures with people calmly walking around going about their daily business? or a bunch of guys wandering around in hazmat suits? there you have it.
