Actually never mind I hadn't read the article, which is well written and has the quality I would expect from a conversation article.

Well I wouldn't say it's as good as the best Conversation articles, which I find are the ones written by a team of academics about a new piece of research they've published. But I thought it was quite typical for one of their "lighter" pieces. Certainly I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with it or that it's part of some media conspiracy.
