I experienced this first hand once when I was interviewed by the Washington Post on quantified self. The reporter ignored a lot of information I provided to make the article about whether quantified self was worth a damn. In my statistics undergrad, we were told to find a science article, find the study the article was about, and reinterpret the results to see how well the article did. The article always overgeneralized study conclusions. Every time. I have no great hatred for the press, and I don’t call anything I dislike Fake News, but I do wish I felt like I could trust reporting more than I do.
