Just realized AP News and that viral 'new study' account are not the same thing, and I feel dumb
I used to share stuff from a 'science news' page on Instagram without checking, and a reader pointed me to the actual study behind one of their posts, which had 34 participants and no control group. Take two minutes to click the original source before sharing, because the headline and the paper almost never match. How do you all spot a sketchy source fast when a story is already blowing up?
