Tuller, Trial By Error: Our Latest Tango with BMJ Open…

[Cheshire]

On March 27th, Professor Racaniello and I sent an e-mail to Dr. Trish Groves, editor-in-chief at BMJ Open, declining her request that we send in an e-letter for publication to ensure “maximum transparency.” Two days letter, we received yet another appeal from Dr. Groves. In this e-mail, she promised for the first time that BMJ Open would seek a “point by point” response from the authors as well as a comment from the University of Bristol.

Here is Dr. Groves’ e-mail

Things might just be looking up!

Excellent reply, not letting them off the hook at all.

A $10 donation to David Tuller says they won't learn anything from his words but will in fact see him as being a headache

That was a drop the mic response to Groves. He should have signed off with, 'ya done now!'.

Pretty damn good!

I always get nervous with these sorts of things, as I just don't know how the politics will play out. On just the facts, it seems like this should be a simple case... but the facts often don't seem to matter as much as they should. Thanks once again to Tuller and Racaniello.

I like that this latest response to Groves takes the pressure up a notch further. Groves can sort this out, or she can take it to the HRA for them to sort out, or (implication) this evidence will be taken to the HRA for her (I hope). The HRA are on the table.
Nice!
