Study Shows Previous Study Full of Crap


“As I stood in line,” writes Post blogger Keith Hemstreet, “rummaging through my bag in an effort to scrounge up enough change to buy a cup of coffee, a story in the newspaper caught my eye. The headline read, ‘Study: One in five in PitCo barely making ends meet’. My immediate reaction was to think that the study was flawed. Only one in five? It seemed like a sampling of the very coffee shop I occupied would produce a statistic closer to nine in ten. However, without having read the article – I was still trying to piece together $1.25 for a coffee – I thought that the headline could, in fact, be true, given a slight modification.”
