Accredited scientist - Definition


The phrase "accredited scientist" is a somewhat derogatory term for a character (real or fictional) that is dressed as an authoritative figure and uses an extensive vocabulary to try to convince consumers to buy a product on an infomercial or commercial. Such characters usually have some kind of degree, assumed to be from a low-quality school or correspondence course. They operate under the Stuart Mendelssohn Principle.
