Unfortunately, following the recent exposés of Dan Ariely, Francesca Gino, and so many others, I have to agree.
The "science" that makes news articles is particularly likely to be snake oil for funding and clicks. Not all of it, of course, but we are in no position to choose the honest ones.
_Science Fictions_ by Stuart Ritchie is a very readable and informative book on the state of bad scientific research.
