Attack of the Theocrats!
There's an excellent website run by a professional physicist I find very useful for keeping up with the latest from the frontiers of physics. There's also lots of careful explanations regarding firmly established theories and concepts.
I recomend it to those who worry that something gets lost in translation between the physicist and the news outlet desrcribing the findings and their implications. It's particulary good for getting the inside stories from the LHC.
There's an article about this story in which the author urges caution about the validity of the results and explains why it may not be much of an upheaval in any case.
