Wine is bad? That must be fake news

NEW research suggests that running is more successful at slowing down the ageing process t han l i ft i ng weights. Great news. I’ve always thought that fiddling around with dumbbells was a boring waste of time. And I believe every word of t his report since running is the only exercise I take and therefore it completely endorses my behaviour.

How different to my response on reading, for the umpteenth time, that a single glass of wine every day will have the opposite effect and most likely condemn me to memory loss, obesity and cardiovascular damage.

That unwelcome information, I instantly decided, was a perfect example of fake news.
