Pollock Theater, UC Santa Barbara
Inspired by the acclaimed book by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway, this film takes audiences on a satirically comical, illuminating ride into the world of pundits-for-hire who present themselves in the media as scientific authorities – yet have the contrary aim of spreading maximum confusion about public threats ranging from toxic chemicals to climate change.
Panel Discussion to follow with:
Jennifer Ouellette, science blogger for Scientific American
& Erik M. Conway, co-author of the book Merchants of Doubt
Free Admission
