Yeah, I'm early. Busy day tomorrow, so let's get this party started.

What are the most annoying narratives in the news today?

Journalists have to "protect the narrative;" establish a point-of-view based on snippets of data or evidence and ride that fucker home until it's dead and buried. It establishes them as a voice among the crowd, one way or another. Think Dan Bernstein "HOW DOES THIS GET YOU CLOSER TO A CHAMPIONSHIP", but on steroids.

"A new study may indicate that (such and such) is good for you"

"Coming up, why (the same such and such) may be bad for you."
