Seth X, autor do blogue Our Dinner Table (cujo nome se inspirou no dito atribuído a Ronald Reagan que "All great change begins at the dinner table") escreve:
Um título alternativo a este post poderia ser "não se deixe emprenhar pelos ouvidos"!«Call something a ‘study’ carried out by ‘experts’ and it gains instant credibility with many people. News anchors seem to love how that rolls of their tongues. A new study out today in the Journal of such-and-such says that this causes an X% greater chance of that.
Tell people to be skeptical of studies and do some due diligence before drawing a conclusion and they look at you like you must be thick. It’s a study. It was carried out by experts. It’s peer reviewed. All good stuff, but none of it means it’s right. Believing it’s right without looking into is faith.»
