Well not every myth about scientific consensus is right either. It also depends how you define scientific consensus. I don’t think I could define it before scientific method (pragmatic) was born in 1877. And while the consensus is usually wrong in some way, improvements can be be made by investigating those areas and filling in the gaps. For example I don’t consider Einsteins relativity model to be a revolution of Newtonian physics, because Newtonian physics is still used in most areas.

Regarding the CRU leaked emails, I don’t actually see myself what is there so incriminating about them? Of course I clearly see that scientist did not check every email against the PR and Law departments, but this seems like normal communication, and I have no doubt that my own outbox (as a software developer) is even more incriminating.
