Quote:I wonder how this revelation affects Mr.Jacobovici's standing with his peers?
That's a very good question. First you would have to decide who are his peers. He considers himself a journalist and film producer. Scholars and archaeologists consider him a charlatan.
Unfortunately, outfits like History Channel and Discovery and even Nat Geo are concerned with filling blocks of programming and pseudo-scientific religious bullshit, like what Jacobovici produces, will always find advertisers because there are so many stupid theists out there who watch this shit.
When Exodus Decoded first ran there was a panel discussion in the aftermath in which xtian scholar, Jonathan Reed, coined the term "archaeoporn" in relation to Jacobovici's garbage.
He actually gained a few points in my book for that one.
