SCIENTISTS rarely make exaggerated claims when reporting their results in the scientific literature because it is poor etiquette and likely to provoke the scorn of their peers. But news releases are a different matter. When speaking to the public, some scientists, in conjunction with their institution's press office, are willing to make much bolder claims for their work.

A Chinese journalist who was tried in secret and sentenced in November to six years in prison is being punished for reporting a sensitive but open secret about who rules China, court documents show. The 50-year-old journalist, Gao Yu, was arrested on Oct. 2, 1993, as she prepared to leave China for an academic year at Columbia University. She had written a series of articles earlier that year reporting that President Jiang Zemin, General Secretary of the Communist Party and Commander in Chief of China's armed forces, does not have ultimate power as long as other "senior comrades" like Deng Xiaoping are alive and that China's Parliament remains a rubber stamp for decisions made by the Communist Party's governing Central Committee.
