According to recent scientific analysis, eating bacon causes cancer. Tragically as a newscaster I am unable to understand the difference between the questions, does an effect exist? And how strong is the effect? Therefore, I have categorized all things into causes cancer and does not cause cancer. Anything increasing the risk of cancer, no matter how minor the effect, will be treated as scary and important. For instance, the fact that I am bald means the people around me get a slightly higher dose of radiation from my body than they would if I wore a toupee. I, Steve Jennings, newscaster... Cause cancer!

Pretty much what you get from folks who were Journalism majors because it didn’t require them to actually know anything about anything.

Journalism majors know about facts and their importance. Though these days it is hard for such people to report what they find when their Reich ‘Wing editors tell them what they can and can’t report on. Oh and lots of fake news sites on the Internet doesn’t help either.
