Newspaper preferentially cover science w/poor methodology-Good to know 😰 here some reasons for it @tom_siegfried #WCSJ2017 #StatsJournalism

Ask the researcher “how could you be wrong?” It’s a red flag if they are prickly. @cragcrest #statsjournalism #WCSJ2017
.@cragcrest calls small decisions made in setting up a statistical analysis the "researcher degrees of freedom" #WCSJ2017 #StatsJournalism
