Probably.

I watch Fox News remember?
(Dr)Peter Van Onsolen, (Dr)Greg O'Mahoney, Paul Murray, Paul Murphy, Joe Hildebrand and commentators of this quality who are backed up by research assistants and other resources regularly spout off about doubts in the science surrounding this dodgy sham. I'm with them without having to read a single boring science report. Woo Hoo!

Heard her on Hack the other day on Triple J and she didn't hold back.

Anything to get extra research funding?
