Thanks Lynne, for calling attention to this. It would be nice if BBCE gave the link to the real study. I am getting tired of media not bothering to do this. Just as I am getting tired of blogs commenting on press releases as if they were real research reports. (BTW, BBC just reprinted our 26Jan 06) Pew Strength of Internet Ties press release and added a para. of local color, and treated it as their news report.)
