In general, all news media does a poor job of reporting on science issues. We need journalism students to spend more time in science courses, so that they are exposed to different applications of the scientific method in different disciplines. An interdisciplinary major program in colleges and universities would go a long way toward this. Even coupling a dedicated course on the scientific method, taught by actual scientists and not philosophers of science, would be good.
