So you agree the article is sensationalist? Why link me a study that is irrelevant for no reason?
The article is not sensationalist. Please quote me a part of the article that you feel is and I can address the statements that make you feel that way.

You’ve got to be trolling at this point.
What part of this article is inaccurate?
