"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.
Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.

News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

This is a bummer. We moved from Centennial to CP two years ago and had shifted from Marco’s to Rosso Pomodoro.
It is a staple at Eataly locations in the U.S., but you can no longer get it in Colorado.

Cognitive function tends to get worse as we age. Scientists have developed “brain workouts” to fight that decline.
Want to keep your brain from aging? Try a cognitive workout : Short Wave
Scientists have found the first compelling evidence that cognitive training can boost levels of a brain chemical that typically declines as people age. The results of this 10-week study back earlier animal research showing that environments that stimulate the brain can increase levels of certain neurotransmitters. And other studies of people have suggested that cognitive training can improve thinking and memory. So how does it all work? And by how much does it all work? Here to break everything down and help you understand how to keep your brain sharp is NPR science correspondent Jon Hamilton.Interested in more brain science?

They can’t addict kids to nicotine so they are going to leave the country!?!?!? 😂 This is like listening to Trump. It’s all just made up foolishness.
The flavor ban affects some 575 retailers that sell the products in Denver.
Denver’s flavor ban begins in January. These businesses say they may leave
Denver voters strongly approved of the city's new ban on flavored vaporizers, menthol cigarettes and other flavored nicotine products.

I find this surprising. The sports editor position pays $80,000 to $85,000 and only requires a high school diploma. I would think that the editor position would pay more and require more.
