Watch Stossel on 'Science Wars' Tonight at 8 p.m. ET, Featuring Matt Welch!

|

In its newish time slot of 8 p.m. ET, Fox Business Network's great program Stossel is dedicated tonight to the mutually destructive political war on/about science. There'll be discussion about genetically modified food, fracking, veganism, water fluoridation, nuclear energy, vaccines, you name it.

I kick off the show with a rapid-fire conversation about how muuch politicians, parties, and activists screw up science, and how much that hurts the rest of us, which was the subject of John Stossel's Reason.com column this week: "The Left's Bad Ideas About Science Are More Harmful Than the Right's."
