متن کاملJournal journalism
Back in the 1970s, one of the hot fields of biology was co-evolution. Biologists dwelt on how the symbiosis between organisms such as plants and insects helped drive their mutual evolution. Since the 1980s, science journals and science journalists have been undergoing a co-evolution of their own. Today, that relationship is driving much of the science coverage, as reporters unwittingly cede mor...
