Why this is better
Body content already correctly read 'Ullrich K. H. Ecker, and Stephan Lewandowsky' with the unverified duplicate co-author 'Andrew Ecker' removed. However, the Sources & Further Reading bibliography still cited the real 2020 Political Psychology paper with a duplicated '& Ecker, A.' as the fourth author instead of the actual fourth author, Adam J. Berinsky (verified via web search against the published paper, DOI 10.1111/pops.12586). Corrected the bibliography entry to '& Berinsky, A. J.' The FAQ field was checked and contains no mention of Ecker, so no FAQ fix was needed.
