Right yeah. NPR great. NPR science reporting. Terrible. It's a shame. Sadly it's a strong pattern not a one off, hence the NPR search link on that site so you can satisfy yourself that "as heard on NPR" is anything but a strong signal of quality research. And if we keep repeating that they'll likely fix it. It's absolutely fixable. NPR are not a total write off.
