What does a tree octopus eat?
Tree crabs?

It's not really a shocker that kids are gullible.

Or the whole thing with, you know, educators lying to their students for the sake of a study. But yeah, let's just call them stupid.

If you think about it, they sort of had a point with sites like Wikipedia but they went about their point all wrong.
It's only ever so misleading if the one who is actually teaching you is misleading you.
Things we find on the internet ourselves we leave to us to decide whether it's real or not.

This study doesn't prove anything about the .
I could just as easily have printed a fake page on the Tree Octopus, add it to a Biology textbook in a library, direct kids who take part in the study to the faked material, then publish a paper claiming that reading books has an adverse effect on childrens' learning by making them more gullible.
Television, newspapers, pretty much any kind of media can be blamed in this way.
