Unfortunately, social media or whatever has changed science communication. A scientist can do amazing science, have total evidence based reasoning and then be completely ignored because some quack tells a good story on Rogan.

That speaks more to society than science. We should not expect scientists to fix this problem. It's outside their domain.
