    A cell biologist has suggested all non-avian dinosaurs were aquatic. Once again, the beeb and most other journalistic institutions have picked up on the story, and are supporting it as new-thinking.

    Everyone else knows the truth.

    Pretty much all newspapers etc gave this credibility.. it shows what's wrong with the world these days... The BBC4 radio show especially, heralding the guy to be a 'heroic pursuer of the truth' when really he can't see simple evidence
