eevBLAB #30 - Popular Science FAIL! (WaterSeer Debunk)

7 years ago
8

A magazine like Popular Science should be held to a higher standard than today's "Fake news" marketing re-hashing websites, which is why it's very disappointing to see them print an article on the thoroughly busted Indiegogo WaterSeer without any kind of basic fact checking or questioning of it's practicality.
P.S. The article author was contacted for comment but did not reply.

UPDATE: Popular Science ran another article not quite retracting their previous article, but acknowledging the issues.
