Why are scientific research stories often such crap? Because of pr departments in Universities are crap and exaggerate for attention vs accuracy and journalists are too lazy to fact check their pr releases & just copy & paste with a slight rewrite.

@junaidsmerchant I'm concerned that sciencese could diminish clarity for other scientists. I don't think this is a problem for #scicomm because imo most is premature (eg journalism on single studies), and what is done badly is primarily how we write our ow

Key tweet from this excellent thread. Anecdotally I would say the exaggeration often starts in the authors' own abstracts. As reviewer, I often ask for hype to be removed, but as a reader you see many have still crept through. https://t.co/nbo1nFK113
