the network you are trusting was likely wrong about a big discovery that NASA claimed to have made
I have no idea exactly what network Kenny trusts how much, but just about everything I read about NASA’s alleged discovery was really skeptical about it and said “yeah, this would be amazingly cool if it were true, but don’t hold your breath until it’s been confirmed by more careful investigation”. And, lo, it was not confirmed by more careful investigation, and now everyone thinks it was probably bullshit.
Much the same story for superluminal neutrinos (more so than the arsenic-using life) and CMB polarization due to inflation (less so than the arsenic-using life).

In the case of the neutrinos the announcement there was much more skepticism on the part of the people who made the discovery.
In the case of superluminal neutrinos, pretty much nobody including the people who made the announcement believed it; and the real announcement was more along the lines of “we’ve got some problematic data here; and we can’t find our mistake. Does anyone see what we’ve done wrong?”

Yup, but I don’t think that’s relevant to how reliable the people Kenny trusts to tell him about scientific research are.
