The Personal Experiences with Liberal Bias Trilogy:
1. Grant rejected when it proposed to study liberal bias in psych.

We performed a study showing libs were more biased than cons. Could not get that published. Left in all the results but did not mention that libs were more biased than cons.
That got published.
