Coyne - ‘We don’t share data.’ Why Peter White’s Wall Street Journal letter can be ignored

A fun, cheeky post. I especially like the Russell quotes.

I'm not sure if the White letter to the WSJ did really change much. The PACE researchers already said:

We have supplied requested, anonymised data to independent scientists, as part of normal research collaboration. Among others, these include a Cochrane review group who have independently validated the trial findings on the primary outcomes, and who are now undertaking an individual patient data meta-analysis using these data.

Also, I'm not sure about the wisdom of making fun of Lewandowsky's picture. Even though it was a ridiculous shot. And I have already made fun of it quite a lot in private. But 'shhhh...' we're meant to be playing it respectable!
