I think the history/social studies disinformation is rather different from
the science errors in that it is a systematic ideological distortion that
serves certain social interests.... whereas the science errors are more like
"errors."  The corresponding issues in science would be more along the lines
of dismissing evolution as a major organizing concept in biology-- or
perhaps in the presentation of history/philosophy of science.
