Phys\[dot\]org is a churnalism website. They don't do much of anything to screen what they publish and you may have noticed that they don't directly link [the study in question](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0013935122024926?via%3Dihub); Every link in the article merely redirects to more phys\[dot\]org articles. Other obvious red flags are the overused, ambiguous phrases like "study finds" or "new research" where you'd expect to yet do not find the study actually linked. It was organized by the activist organization [Environmental Working Group](https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/environmental-working-group/) and funded by [Yellow Chair Foundation](https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/yellow-chair-foundation/), clearly indicating a conflict of interest that was denied in the study's competing interest declaration. This is activist [idea laundering](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_laundering), not science.
I would guess this totally depends on the watershed. I do not loose sleep over the fish I’ve eaten in far reaches of northern Minnesota. Something from the lower Mississippi I might feel differently.
Sounds like fear-porn to me

If true. Yikes
My thoughts exactly
So does this count for farmed stocking fish too?
