BBC NEWS | Health | Men 'drink far more than women': The depressive picture used here doesn't really fit the data they're presenting:
Among men in households with a gross weekly income of over £1,000, 83% had had a drink in the previous week, and 51% had drunk more than four units on at least one day.
But among men in households with an income of £200 or less, only 61% had had a drink and only 32% had drunk more than four units on any one day.
Now, I know it is presumptive for me to say that the rich people aren't as depressive as the poor, because that's not necessarily the case. But this article doesn't even cover alcoholism, depression, or anything that the picture alludes to. When you have a 500 word article, you can't have 1000 words (a picture) telling you a conflicting message.
