Re: [PSCI-COM] Sci com's Billington I’d have thought that Geoff Watts (BBC) would be a good candidate for this.

At the last meeting of the editorial committee of "People & Science", we tried to think of someone who has the same relationship to science communication as Malcolm Billington (Guardian theatre critic) has to the theatre.  Any ideas?  I'd discount Ben Goldacre as being too much a one-drum critic.  We were trying to think of someone who knows the scene, doesn't actually do it, but engages with it and criticises and praises as s/he thinks fit.
 
Someone at the table suggested that, until a field can name that sort of person, it hasn't really come of age.
