Sometimes popular science is itself the misinformation. The authors stretch the findings to land in prestigious journals. The news stretches the findings further to sell clicks (c.f. Gell-Mann Amnesia effect). The people on the internet selectively quote articles and selectively ignore others. The algorithm tries to only show you content that you like. The truth doesn't have a chance. |
