The end justifies the means.....

You see it all the time when news organizations run polls and reports their results as "news"...

I'll let them as "intellectuals" figure out the logical fallacy behind the whole study.

The link you provided is typical news reporting. Did you have something in mind other than objecting to causality vs correlation? It would be interesting to see if the actual paper makes some stabs and showing why the correlation might actually be causative.

A week or two ago, the US News back page editorial (usually VERY pro rightwing) totally astonished me, in that it was a pretty strong condemnation of the current administration as being anti-science. Maybe some on the right are waking up. Good for them!
