A meth test for the press

Posted by Billbar from Slate

After Newsweek demonized the drug and its users last summer with a cover package that hyperbolized in a fashion that would have made the producers of Reefer Madness blush, most of the press has followed its example. The press tends to rubber-stamp studies that perpetuate the myth of the meth epidemic without pausing to analyze the data or the underlying arguments. Don't tell the kids, but there's a dirty little secret about crack: as with most other drugs, a lot of people use it without getting addicted. In their zeal to shield young people from the plague of drugs, the media and many drug educators have hyped the very real dangers of crack into a myth of instant and total addiction.
