Why does this article not share a link to the actual study?
- cinntaile 5y agoNewspapers almost never do this. It's probably a way to remain relevant, otherwise you can just skip the middle man.
- thallada 5y agoExcept the middle man can actually serve a purpose here. I would actually like someone to distill highly academic articles full of technical jargon into layman's terms that I can skim in a few minutes. The fact they don't link the original paper is just bad journalism. It's also bad journalism when newspapers frequently misunderstand the original source completely or sensationalize one piece of the source completely out of context for extra clicks. But, there's not much we can do about that. I hope we get more alternative media sources like Two Minute Papers (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbfYPyITQ-7l4upoX8nvctg https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbfYPyITQ-7l4upoX8nvctg), who actually understand the subject matter, summarizing the latest research in various fields.
