I saw an article the other day that claimed that "Life existed on Mars." I then proceeded to read the article and find the places where it was exaggerating or sometimes misinterpreting the actual report. This video is an edited down version to generally talk about how this is an exaggerated claim and to also point out some problems with the actual news agency that wrote it when it comes to honest journalism.

I'm not a journalist, and I'm not trying to become one, I just want to give the perspective of someone who spends a lot of time dealing with science and specifically space science.
