This is such a good example of "turn every page" journalism - nothing less fun/glam than clicking through every footnote.
And it's roughly 10,000x more newsy than the thumbsucker RFK profiles reported with big travel budgets.

No reputable Dr or Scientist, researcher or thesis writer would have a future with such irresponsible writing .
Does the GOP not understand their families and friends are going to be hurt by this, too?
MAHA, my butt!

Can the researchers whose names & work were wrongly included & that they made false claims about sue?????????
They all lied to Congress about what they would do; and now it's clear they can't handle any job that requires analysis.
When you look at the details like this everything falls apart. Great job on this work.
Example the % teens with a Major Depressive Episode was shown as ~10% of boys and ~30% of girls in 2022. The underlying government study showed -10% on average!

I just hope news outlets are about ready to let go of describing RFK Jr as a skeptic
It carries positive connotations of diligence that he definitely doesn't deserve
They call him a "conspiracy theorist". I don't like that term: I always say: "conspiracy paranoid".
There is a term "pseudoskeptic":
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudoskepticism
"conspiracy theory" -> conspiracy tale (hoax)
"conspiracy theorist" -> conspiracy paranoid (nut)
"pseudoskeptic" -> A person who claims to be an impartial skeptic, while expending all his ammo on the white dog and ignoring the black dog.
and diligence
reasonable and rational are part of it
I would say judgment is important
but RFK Jr doesn’t clear any bar at all
