Here's an example of bunk science in a mainstream newspaper.
http://thestar.com.my/health/story.asp?fil...3910&sec=health
No evidence, lots of scientific jargon to fool the foolish and using the example of a questionable scientist.
The final few paragraphs are a paragon of bunk
This is the rubbish The Star publishes. I think the arguments for these scalar energy and energised water and Dr Emoto has been thoroughly debunked. But if you would like to give you take, please do. Anyone with actual knowledge on this topic please contribute. This article was published today in the Health section of The Star
A little info on wikipedia on Emoto:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masaru_Emoto
And on Ionised water:

PS : Also the disclaimer at the bottom of the article is funny. Why bother inviting an 'expert' to write about something? They might as well copy and paste the thousands of rubbish articles on the net. It seems to me the health section of the Star is more about the advertisement for health products that have no scientific evidence on their effectiveness. The articles are biased and written solely for the purpose of selling the product related to it.
Dr Masaru Emoto have not gone to claim the one million dollar that james randi offer him to prove it claim in a double blind test.Here's an example of bunk science in a mainstream newspaper.

a lot of time news paper just publish them BS holistic treatment article without getting the view of qualified medical professional, and people will believe that it is real, and those people selling these holistic treatment product put then newspaper article in their sales pitch to made their product appear legit.
if the editor have just type the name Dr Masaru Emoto in google he will find countless article exposing him as an fraud and he also admitted that he is no scientist.

can the proponent of Homeopathy first prove that their treatment have any medical value with double blind test first before putting this in the university?
