You are giving people too much credit. How many people do you think actually read the whole study. You know, all 5 pages of it.4 if you don't count the references
I didn't read the study. I'm really not that invested in this type of thing. It's just sad to see how journalists, media deal with studies.
"New cancer test works at 90% effectiveness!!!!!"
"White Americans believe they experience more racism than Black Americans!!!!"
They just butcher studies to get views. And it worked, they caught me hook line and sinker with this article. They do every time. It's just so frustrating to see it happen. Particularly with cancer treatments and tests - it's false hope (90% effectiveness is really not that good for those reading and not getting the first example).
