In general this article departs from NPOV - it only lists the most negative aspects about Richetti from the perspective of Biden's political opponents, and these in voluminous detail, listing a dozen companies his firm represented and the salary he received from that firm..

Also need to clarify that Sagan is talking about the practice of science, not reliance on scientists as authorities in their fields.
