Hell, look at the insane, wholly unscientific public crucification of James Watson for commenting, totally reasonably, on this very subject. Stripped of a Nobel prize for suggesting that two and two may equal four. Find me one credible media outlet which even questioned such treatment!
Edit: sorry, I misread a headline about him losing the prize, it read stripped of "honors". Point still stands.
