University of South Florida Media errors in Covering Medical Research Paper The purpose of this assignment is to encourage students to become educated consumers of medical information provided in the media. For this assignment, you will be required to find media errors or distortions in covering medical research. You can find such errors by consulting one of the online news sites, such as CBS’s Health section or the comparable section of many news sites. It is not even necessary to use the Internet; television, newspapers, and magazines carry health-related stories. The focus of the media is to grab attention and present a concise summary of an interesting research finding. The result is often to sensationalize and simplify research findings. You will be required to search for the original report of the misrepresented findings and contrast the technical report with the popular coverage, making exhibits of the contrasting material.Your submission should be 2-3 pages total in length (double-spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font, one-inch margins) and should include links to the media coverage as well as the original medical report (e.g., article, technical report).
