What statements are you specifically referring to? Science is the practice of skepticism and doubt, especially of oneself. But the very measured and precise language of analysis is not friendly to presentation, hence journalism often translating it into something less measured and precise. Acknowledge that science journalism and science have very different goals and are not perfect translations. Consider whether your perceived issue is with the journalistic representation or the science itself. Click all the way through past the journalism into the research itself before presuming much about the claims or phrasing of the science based solely on the journalistic representation of it.
