MODERATORS
You are totally right. Median and average alone mean shit without each other and without deviation, and such article like this is considered by me a manipulation without further correctness check. The same shit is with journalists confuckulating percentages with percentage points.
In over 10 years I was made aware by my university professor of these practices I haven’t found a single article which got that right.
