![]() I find the DRF presentation of this information interesting. Especially compared to what other press is writing about it.
The DRF headline is: "Study challenges injury claims". That makes the reader think something measured and valid was found in the study, and was presented today, right? And the opening paragraph says: Quote:
Um, but wait. That isn't exactly true. Not in the scientific sense. As written in the second paragraph, which has the researcher herself deliberately trying to negate that exact premature rush to assumption: Quote:
The DRF writer saw this, too, as he then immediately makes the editorial comment: Quote:
But the headline and first paragraph sure don't imply that more reserved and accurate assessment of the facts to date, do they? ![]()
