Deadline Anthropologist

A newspaper or magazine writer who creates inane articles about alleged dramatic changes in culture or society, even though the evidence is often flimsy generalties and select anecdotes.

anthrocentric

advective defining the state of believing that humans are the central aspect of reality, and that everything that is not human exists for humans.

It seems that almost everyone I know believes that humans are the reason for the universe, which I interpret to be anthrocentric.
