NYC Skeptics is hosting a live screening of the new film "Science Friction" presented by producer Brian Dunning.

Finally, a documentary about scientists who get misrepresented by the media.

Those TV documentaries you see, and the science experts they feature? Did you know that producers often edit them out of context, and twist their words, to make it seem like they promoted some pop sensationalism instead of the real facts?

Science Friction exposes this practice and gives the scientists a chance to clear the record. The film was financed by private grants and donations. Sign up below for email updates on the release.
