    When one says a publication is grossly misleading, it certainly implies the entire publication

      Often the author doesn’t write he headline. Not sure it matters but most a bit of info.

      Why have we accepted the standard of misleading headlines? “Oh well you didn’t read the article, I guess you and 90% of eyeballs get to be fundamentally misinformed” is an unhinged take.

        I never said a misleading headline was acceptable. I said the publication is not misleading and that it covers the criticisms dude up above was leveling.

      “article” vs “publication”

      Two different things.

      The link takes you to an article. Publications are in actual scientific journals, not intended for popular consumption.
