Just another example (of many) that statistics are context dependent, used to bolster a story, and can be employed for political gain. I wish a healthy amount of skepticism from my students, always. #MTH205

this could apply to a LOT of academic papers - scary that policy decisions/ treatment decisions/ legal decisions (#forensic) can be based upon such flawed data and no attention to corrections.
