The Generosity Of Scientific Publishing

All talk and writing of genes 'being selfish'
is surely empty rhetoric, given the generosity
required by the media and the publishing industry
to get the message of such 'genetic selfishness'
out to a public who see the generosity in the message.
If the public had to reason that genes were that mean,
they would expect the genes to be
secretive about it towards the scientists.
