2016's Worst Junk Science

In 2016, the year of "Post-Truth," it's no surprise that there was a fair amount of junk science being tossed around. Like we do every year, we strived to debunk as much of it as we could. We also called out its most prominent purveyors. Now, we count down the worst of the worst. So here it is: our annual list of the biggest junk science of 2016. Click the red arrows to the right of Jean Luc Picard (pictured above) to begin. And gird yourself, this will get ugly.

Afterwards, we encourage you to peruse our past lists from 2013, 2014, and 2015 (if you haven't knocked yourself out from excessive facepalming, that is).
