Please note that they don't say _whose_ scientific misconduct was exposed.
At first glance, it sounds like they're saying the Meteoritical Society was
at fault, but with careful reading (especially being aware of BCC's track
record) it's more like they're admitting professional problems at BCC and
hoping no one will notice.
