Found Poetry: the new scientific journalism?

Universities and colleges serve as brokers for the pharmaceutical industries.  Check out the opening line to this article about genetically modified mosquitos capable and designed to deliver vaccines to people.  Like fluoride, the American citizen will be offered consent.  It reads, 

A new study from the University of Washington in Seattle used 200 mosquitoes to deliver live malaria-causing Plasmodium parasites into the arms of human test subjects in a new vaccine trial. 

The point of highlighting that opening line is that it is used to garner some weight, gravitas, credibility in the reader's mind.  Forget for a minute that universities are bought and paid for.  Forget that they're bastions of woke ideologies that have surrendered common sense and common decency.

The introduction continues, 

The Plasmodium parasites were genetically modified via CRISPR technology to not make people get sick. It was reported that the body still makes antibodies against the weakened parasites so it will be prepared to fight real malaria. The lead scientist is reportedly not planning to use mosquitoes to vaccinate millions of people, but what is to stop others from doing so? 

Did you read that line, "The lead scientist is reportedly not planning to use mosquitoes to vaccinate millions of people, but what is to stop others from doing so?"  So do you see what the writer, and his editor, are doing?  

The University of Washington in Seattle.  By the way, anything coming out of Washington University, it means Bill Gates.  Flat out.  That might help explain why you have such ghoulish statements from their scientists who say things like, "  

The lead scientists.  

These writers are using found poetry to create legitimacy and credibility to their article.  They don't use the usual means of rhetoric.  Watch how they cite the journal, 

A new study published last month in Science Translational Medicine used 200 mosquitoes to deliver live malaria-causing Plasmodium parasites that had been genetically modified to inject malaria into the arms of human test subjects in a new vaccine trial. 

"A new study" builds excitement.  

"The lead scientists" builds authority. 

"The University of Washington in Seattle" is its origins story, presumed to be an institution of great learning.

Then the article introduces the test subject, Carolina Reid, trying to connect her to the charm of Seattle and the Pacific Northwest with this introduction, "One Seattle morning . . . ."
