to be expected from such a rag, but nevertheless disappointing in this day and age.

The use of ethnic background, nationality and gender should be strongly discouraged in scientific discussions

Two world-class scientists and astronmers were treated in a disgusting sexist and racist manner by some unknown Daily Mail lackey. No surprise there, then.

The Daily Mail are a disgrace. Just when I thought they couldn't sink any lower...

It is appalling that such an attitude still exists in the mainstream media in this day and age, belittling the work of two such highly regarded scientists - and of the many non-white and female scientists involved in the BICEP2 research group. This should never have made it past the editor's desk, let alone into print

They should apologise immediately and in full for their disgusting behaviour

looking at the Daily Mail's coverage of climate change one is tempted to add that commenting on science with no proper qualifications may be the preserve of white mail newspaper editors

These two brilliant scientists do not need an endorsement from a racist and sexist rag.?
