From my experience the issues with this study have been well known for a long time.
A first year Psychology paper I took over 10 years ago was at pains to point out the flaws in the study - not that this was unusual, a good lecturer will critically analyse any scientific study they present.
Perhaps it has more to do with the increasing popular appeal of the study?
