A few years ago I wrote about a brilliant and scary real world satire done by Burkhard Morgenstern:
Scary and funny: fake researcher Peter Uhnemann on OMICS group Editorial Board #JournalSPAM | The Tree of Life
Well he has done it again. This time he has gotten a Hoss Cartwright, a fictional character from Bonanza onto the editorial board of many journals.
Here he is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Agricultural and Life Sciences
There he is listed as
Dr. Hoss Cartwright, Senior Research Fellow, Ponderosa Institute for Bovine Research, Nevada, United States.
A little Googling found this blog post with more detail
So funny and painful at the same time.
