Comment What about subscription journals? (Score 2) 114
This paper has already been extensively critiqued. To me the biggest problem is that he didn't include any subscription journals.
Many intentionally flawed or nonsense papers have been submitted -- and published! -- to reputable journals in the past.
This latest demonstration by Bohannan just shows that the peer review system needs improvement. It does not show whether Open Access journals are better or worse than subscription journals in terms of quality and reliability of content.
