During the consecutive holidays, I kept myself in my house, so I often watched TV during the day.

And I was surprised at the low quality of daytime news programs compared to nighttime news programs.

First, the newscaster's ignorance and no study. -- Maybe I want to believe that they are acting "incompetently".

In addition, in the program,

- (Including items for which no results have been obtained), blaming the government policy, and guiding everything to the responsibility of the Prime Minister and the Minister

- A desperate misunderstanding of statistics(in particular, no understanding of "hypothesis test" regarding RPC test numbers)

- Fawning behavior comment by the person who is said to be an "expert"

Also, I remember the name of the person who is said to be an "expert" and search on the Web. However some people are completely anonymous, and some do not even write a paper in worst case (of course, some people do not).

When I evaluate a person's performance, I'm not interested in that person's educational background, but I try to read the content of the person's papers, columns, anything else, except SNS. --- It's kind of troublesome, though.

Somehow, I feel that they are borrowing a person named "Professor" at a cheap price, and pulling him/her out to the news program.

So, I didn't watch TV in the daytime and only watched NHK news at 19:00.

Even for the NHK news programs, I sometimes feed the line.

The phrase "security is broken by "hackers"" is a level that can't be fixed anymore,

The same goes for the phrase "○○ was realized by"AI"" (I no longer have the power to complain).

So this time

The phrase "the gene" RAN "..." came out.

"May I call "RNA" a gene? It's not DNA"

I looked it up.

"There are many viruses that have RNA as a gene," and I found an explanation about the microRNA gene.

I realized, "I'm not good at things that aren't my specialty."
