I find that to be a HUGE problem today with people who publish articles.
1. Clickbait titles, where people don't read the article and still spread the info. The one I like the most. Cell phones are making kids grow horns out of the back of their neck from looking down so much. It was like one kid who happened to have a bone spur and a credited doctor said that's impossible in the article. But no one read it, spread the info, and other places published similar articles without even reading what the doctor said or checking with any
2. Information given completely out of context or purposefully leaving out important information. The best example I've heard, "eating this food caused a 66% increase in cancer." When when you looked at the actual study, it was a 66% relative increase. So it was something like 0.04% chance of getting cancer to 0.06%
3. Not even fact checking before putting out information. I like to refer to the plastic straw outrage. All the news outlets reported one number on how many straws per year were causing pollution, that number ended up coming from a middle school kid's class presentation who just made it up.

But these days people attention time is worth so much money, it pays to get the info out first before fact checking, making clickbait titles, and creating a heated debates that ends up in social divide

Regardless of any misdirection in the headline, it speaks volumes about the British hierarchy's estimation of the "manliness" (or lack thereof) of its current crop of young men that they would seek to lure them to a profession whose mission is to kill people and break shit with their pledging to be kinder to the environment (and in the doing thwart a fictitious environmental crisis they've all been brainwashed with since birth).
Targeting recruits whose favorite hobbies are flower gardening and writing anti-carbon dioxide haikus will lead to a predictable outcome.
