They don't give the name of the journals. What is funny sis these papers are peer reviewed. How that is funny.

    I don't trust anything from Fox. But I followed the link to Nautre. Holy Cow!! IEEE published over 100 fake articles! I can't get my mind around it.

    It said 100 of them came from IEEE journals. There are countless IEEE journals, and there are a small handful I read monthly and bimonthly. I would love to see the fake papers.

    IEEE is the electronics engineers professional society. I'm an officer in our local IEEE section. I had not heard about this. It's really shocking. When it comes to electronics research, IEEE journals are where it's published. I'm amazed that they would allow gibberish articles to be posted.

    I wonder if other articles cite them. I wonder if I ever came upon one and thought I wasn't smart enough in their area of expertise to understand.
