"This one thing may derail your shot at healthy aging, scientists say"

Even the LA Times engages in clickbaity headlines.

The scientist only found a correlation, not causation. The article even states:

"The study didn’t show that excess TV time **caused** any of the nurses to miss out on healthy aging, only that there was a significant inverse **correlation** between the two. Still, there’s good reason to suspect that their favorite sedentary behavior bore at least some of the responsibility."

(Emphasis added.)

The last sentence is just a feeble attempt at justifying their headline.

Shame on the LA Times (@latimes). Is it any mystery that every time a newspaper says "trust us!," I go 🙄.

Doing this one thing may improve your odds of healthy aging

Exercise is good for you. So is a full night's sleep. But the easiest way to boost your chances of reaching your senior years in good physical, mental and cognitive health is to turn off your TV, new research suggests.

"Mattr: First dating app for people with autism and ADHD launched in London"

Hmm....  Hiki was there before this app, but they don't even mention it.

I call this shitty journalism.

Evening Standard

I give up.

I saw an article on the discovery of a new species of antarctic feather stars. Really cool looking sea creature!

But it was all "oh don't worry! It looks like something from "Alien" but it's harmless" Oh FFS.

Another said it was "barf". Seriously??

Another called it "large" but I don't think 8" is a LARGE SEA CREATURE.

One said it was found in the Indian Ocean, others say Southern Ocean.

Anyway, go find your own article.

BBC News using the "I lied and got a diagnosis" techniques they refined attacking trans healthcare to attack healthcare for the neuro-diverse. Wankers. #adhd #bbcnews #shittyjournalism
