We have Stewart Brand to thank for those images of the whole earth... It's too bad Tyson is more scientistic in his thinking than actually scientific. Like most television personalities, he sacrifices the rigors of skepticism (which are at the heart of the scientific method) for more popular notions of what sells books (and, now, tickets) which help to promote his "brand."

I... think I see what you're saying? But the man has made a conscious decision to raise awareness of science via whatever means possible. His "brand" is to inspire people to take interest in the STEM fields. What is it you disagree with?
