"This practice [the embargo system] also ensures that the public gets a 'voilà' view of science. They will see the approved final product, not the trial-and-error experimenting, debating, and groping that make up the scientific process. In their concern to protect people from inaccuracies, scientists mislead them much more seriously bout the science of the scientific process. Also, by stripping science of its natural human interest, they leave it for reporters to add artificial drama. In short, scientists contribute to the very sensationalism and 'discovery' orientation of the press that they criticize."
