Neil deGrasse Tyson Embarrasses Himself as Bill Maher Exposes Disgraceful Scientific American Article

“Well, I'm gonna file you under part of the problem.”

The article claimed that the “inequity” between male and female athletes isn’t because of natural biological differences but because of how they’re treated differently in sports.

Neil failed to see what the big deal was.

MAHER: “But engage with the idea here. What I'm asking is, Scientific American is saying basically that the reason why an NBA WNBA team can't beat the Lakers is because of societal bias.”

TYSON: “What you're saying is not Scientific American says that. An editor for Scientific American says that, who no longer has the job. So don't indict a 170-year-old magazine because somebody—”

MAHER: “Okay, this is called Scientific American, and they're printing something. Why can't you just talk about science? Why can't you just say this is not scientific and Scientific American should do better?”

TYSON: “Well, does she still have her job?”

MAHER: “No, not because of this. I said the scandal is not her tweet. I think a year ago [when this was printed], women still couldn't beat men in basketball or any other sport. And it wasn't because of society. You don't see a problem?... Well, I'm gonna file you under part of the problem.”
