Sounds a lot like male FReepers.

Humans are not perfect.
This news flash brought to you courtesy of a hefty government grant.

As most of these “studies” it is a complete fraud. The “study” was not about court cases. No one was in a courtroom during a real trial.
Pictures were shown to men outside of a courtroom. Telling them that it was about a trial does not make it about a trial.
As with all these “studies” idiots will apply the false results to real life with stupid consequences.

I’m 100% certain that someone who would apply for a grant to determine whether men are sexist is going to find that the data shows that men are sexist.
This is what comes of results oriented studies in the humanities.
Has there ever been a hypothesis in the humanities that has not been supported by the grant funded research? I don’t think so.
Why even do the research (assuming that they actually do). Just write up your assumptions and publish it as fact.

Probably conducted by a whole herd of big ole guilty women.

I believe the point he made was that the stuff on the canvas had ceased to be very important -- it was all about the critics. A critic could "see" things other people did not see. A critic could find "meaning" where there was none. If a critic said you were a mere dauber, then it was over for you. If a critic said you were the next big thing, then you were.
The painting didn't matter -- the reviews were where the action was.
The research doesn't matter -- the published "findings" are what's important.

Casey Anthony wasn’t one ounce overweight, I did not attend the trial, but I would gladly drop a pellet on her.

Like the world's most expensive modern photo?

But when the male pretend peers pronounced judgment on the fake female defendants ...I couldn't get the past the "pretend peers" and "fake females" in this article. "Science," indeed.
