Anyone can write a press release. It does not make it true.
For example, this “survey” that is trying to get picked up in this week’s news cycle provides no solid details like sample size, methodology, field dates, or weighting. It offers clickbait media ready quotes, but the release includes no polling data. It also does not help that it was published by a “news creation” company.
Again, anyone can write a press release.
Do not rely on any one person or company for your news. And remember that some “polls” are not polls at all.

Zillow decided climate risk data was bad for business, not for homes. After agents griped about lost sales, the scores vanished, replaced by a tiny link. The data provider warns the risk 'just moves from a pre-purchase decision into a post-purchase liability.'
Should tech platforms 'optimize' away crucial data for sales?
