The Standard Model and USA Today

FredGray writes: "USA Today recently posted a short story titled "1+1 does not equal muon g-2" which explains that the discrepancy between the theoretical and experimental values for the muon's anomalous magnetic moment has mostly evaporated. Unfortunately, the article completely mislays the blame for the initial discrepancy; it implies that there was a mistake in the experiment, but the problem was entirely with one small component of the theoretical calculation known as the hadronic light-by-light scattering term. As a proud member of the experimental group, I would like to ask slashdot to remind the world that we still stand by our result. We are currently analyzing a much larger data set, and we hope to publish a more precise number in the months to come."
