One thing I find annoying about most scientific journals is how expensive they are to view for most people ($20 for an article? Who's going to pay that?). Most people are forced to rely on what the news tells them... but they can easily fabricate research and make it sound convincing, as who's going to check the references? And even if they wanted to, who would pay a ridiculous amount of money just to see whether what they read is legit? It would really be a good thing if more papers were open access like these are.
