NYU professors David Abrams and Ray Niaura question other taxpayer-funded research by University of California, San Francisco professor Stanton Glantz.
One of the country's best-known tobacco researchers is under fire this week after one of his federally funded vaping studies was retracted and other academics are calling for federal review of some of his other influential anti-vaping research.
In January, the Food and Drug Administration banned flavors other than menthol and tobacco in the smaller vape pens popular with teens and restricted the sale of other youth-friendly flavors to vape shops and smoking bars restricted to adults. "Given these issues, the editors are concerned that the study conclusion is unreliable," JAHA said Tuesday when it retracted the study.
"This is his typical modus operandi, blaming everyone but himself, doubling down on supporting the paper, and smearing his critics as ‘e-cig interests,'" Abrams said. "I would say professor Glantz has not taken the retraction with good grace." "No matter how you feel about vaping, correcting the scientific record is critical you can’t trust anything you read," Oransky said."There is this presumption if it isn’t industry funded, it's somehow more legitimate."

New Study Finds Reading Comprehension Down Amongst Dumb Fucks Perusing This HeadlineYOUR LOCATION—Discovering a complete failure to understand simple English prose that was nothing short of unbelievable, a new study published Friday found reading comprehension is down significantly amongst the dumb fucks reading this right now. “Our data found that exactly zero of the knuckle-dragging dimwits currently reading this article are capable of processing words and deriving meaning from them,” said the study’s lead researcher, Caroline Yates, who described an alarming, across-the-board decline in the ability to comprehend nuance and discern subtext among the drooling rabble of perplexed simpletons casting their empty, glazed-over eyes on this page. “In fact, we found that you probably just had to reread that last sentence because you fucking morons didn’t know that ‘perplexed’ is a synonym for ‘confused.’ So let us spell this out for you: You no read good. You bad at word knowing.” Yates added that the inability of our shit-for-brains readers to mentally grasp these very words would not stop the numbskulls from smashing their keyboards like fucking Neanderthals to post the most asinine, meaningless babble possible in the comments.
