Michio kaku, brilliant or just a media whore

Don't get me wrong I have learned a lot from him. But as of late I have been kinda questioning his credibility towards human prosperty.

I used to like his books a lot before I got a degree in physics. Now my opinion is that he heavily skews the current state of physics toward his brand of science. String theory is not the leading theory in physics like he wants everyone to believe. He is extremely full of himself. An interviewer asked him why he tells his students they are stupid regularly. He replied "Because they are." And you can just tell by his interviews that he will say things like "And then my contribution to string theory is one of the leading contributions..." etc. He is not one that I would like to represent science and especially physics. For string theorists, Brian Greene is much better.

Any one who casts aspersions on the credibiity of any one else is, by definition, a media troll, which is just another type of media whore. Some one who cannot spell the word "prosperity" correctly in question that does not make much sense except in it's intent to insult and defame has no credibility. Those who defame others destroy their own credibility. Arrogance is transferred, projected, and denied by internet trolls who are insufferably full of themselves.

"...Media Troll 8 thumbs up
A subset of the Troll species, similar to the Internet Troll but different in their approach.

A Media Troll is an Internet Blogger or Reporter that covers and intentionally misreports the statements and/or opinions of a famous celebrity or politician in order to cause stigmatization and create controversy.

A sometimes unintended result of the Media Troll's work is the Social Pariah. ..."
