Yeah, I thought the Tongue Map was true as well. I found a short article talking about it at Scientific American. Are they reputable?

Scientific American? Yes. It's been a standard pop-sci magazine for decades, although in the last twenty years or so it has become much less rigorous. The reporting should be accurate, though.
