    This is like, journalistic malpractice level of burying the lead, that’s absurd.

    As a scientist, if I wrote a paper where the point I was making was this far off from what the data actually said not only would it not get published, I’d get fucking fired. This was written by one of CNBCs most experienced “journalists.”

      Yeah, the article headline completely misrepresents what’s actually happening.
