Brittanica objects to study claiming equal accuracy with Wikipedia
Next newsThe BBC reports this morning on a study published by the journal Nature last December, which compared the scientific accuracy of articles posted to the online resource Wikipedia versus entries in the Encyclopedia Britannica. Officials from Britannica are calling the study "flawed," and is calling for Nature to retract its study.
