Headlines

The headline reads: "Study finds no link between brain tumors, cell phones," but that's not what the story says, exactly. Reading a little further, the story appears to be saying "Study finds no link between a particular type of brain tumor and cell phone use." The story goes even further then to say that this particular type of tumor may take decades to develop, and there aren't many people who have used cell phones for decades. So, in the end, what the headline REALLY should say is "Study finds nothing conclusive."

Here's a link, in case you're interested.
