I felt like I was reading educational material from a high school textbook illustrating the way in which journalists usually fail to understand anything involving numbers. It's not so much cherry picking, more like just randomly grabbing a few data points in the vicinity of a cherry tree which might include fruit, squirrels, wingnuts, and ball bearings and then instead of doing any meaningful analysis just throwing them into an AI-powered blender. And then to top it off, it ends with:

This content has been developed and paid for by Preszler Injury Lawyers without involvement from The Coast’s editorial department.

So what you’re saying is don’t read this and avoid the coast in the future.

Cool thanks.
