Foxy Peter Ridd was sacked because his exposure of the little game of research grant promoting with false claims about the reef. It had nothing to do with bad behavior, unless you think exposing fraud at academic level is bad behavior.

You obviously continue to refuse to look at the simple evidence shown by Jennifer Marohasy. It appears you would rather live in ignorance than have your ideology challenged by having some of your heroes proven to be lying frauds.

I did you the courtesy of following your references, & was not surprised to find they offered nothing but assertions, with not a single piece of evidence offered. This of course is because all the evidence is in agreement with Ridd's case, because his statements are all true.

I don't know if you have ever seen just what your esteemed "scientists" actually do in Townsville. I say in Townsville, because they spend stuff all time anywhere near the reef. The closest most of them ever get to coral, or fish is the ones they play with in very large fish tanks ashore in Townsville. That is other than the odd holiday at Lizard Island, or on trips to the actual reef such as I took them on. Of course some of them believe flying over it is research.

Let us know when you have examined the actual evidence I refereed you to, your response will be interesting. It will burst a few bubbles, which may be painful for you, but truth is better than propaganda any day.

These circles within Public Institutions do not tolerate people who remind them of lack of integrity.
Peter Ridd did it & see what happened ?

Hasbeen,

The man has been totally discredited and
the only people supporting him are those
whose views are equally as blinkered and flawed
as his are. My links clearly demonstrate Ridd to be a
fraudulent academic who cherry picks and massages the
evidence to fit his extremist views. He gets his funding from
fossil fuel and cane grower money and right wing climate
change denialist groups like the IPA, the Cato Inst. the AEF,
and the Galileo movement - they all give credence to his views.

The Murdoch media, right wing shock jocks (Alan Jones, Andrew
Bolt), support him. I'm surprised that you do. The man is a
fraud.

Foxy, sticking your neck out ?
Consider you might have fallen into that old trap of disbelieving
someone because of where their funds come from.
Take care.

Yes Bazz. Apparently swindling money out of the tax payer by falsifying results to gain research grants is fine. Taking money from productive business folk, or by donation from private interested parties is wrong.

Hasbeen,
According to the Left, anything to do with just the slightest degree of integrity is wrong !
