Robert Crease is now collecting another set of info from all of us - books, movies, and media that has science mistakes. This shouldn't be too difficult to find. I have highlighted a few on here myself - here, here, and here.
Now, to be fair, the 2nd one is from a student newspaper, so one doesn't expect a high quality control. The last one, the link no longer seems to work (or at least, it isn't connect for me today). So maybe someone told them the nonsense that was contained in that article.
Science and the media - it is a necessary connection, but often results in hilarious and frustrating bloopers.
Zz.
