You see this alot in science reporting.

I'm very interested in astronomy and keep tabs on some of the developments there. But the news about it is always hot garbage. They'll take some scientific report like "Scientists have found evidence of a possible planet between 2-3 earth masses located near a star with assumed temperatures of 3000 degrees at surface" and the headline will read "New Earth Discovered! Is there life!"

Which of course the article will then say something like "3000 degrees might make your summer picnics on this planet unpleasant"

No shit.

I should start charging them for wasting my time.
