To be fair, they do control for income and education. That said, I agree that it is very likely that there are third factors that could explain this relationship. It doesn't look like they include fixed effects for locations, which to me would drive most of the variation.pic.twitter.com/vlZoBzjqpA

Ok so the headline itself is indefensible, but with a cooler head let's try to think about what it would take to solve this. There's clearly a prisoner's dilemma in writing about scientific topics for the popular press. If you don't overclaim in your headline nobody clicks.
