Newspaper aritcle with factual error

Featured Replies

Hi all. Does anyone know where I can find a newspaper article in Microbiology or Immunology that have factual errors or an unforgivable exaggeration of the disease or its danger?? I have read some newspaper articles that have many mistakes in them about microbiology diseases such as west nile, bird flu etc. I can't seem to find any online. Does anyone know any good newspaper articles with factual errors?

Strange request!

 

Here's a link to a website with a lot of posts on the media getting science wrong. A 5 or 10 minute browse will probably come up with something.
