I have noticed the increasing use of what I consider to be incorrect comparison within the english media and would value another opinion regarding this. An example taken from the BBC today follows:
"the UCI said the concentration found by the laboratory was estimated at 50 picograms - 400 times less than anti-doping laboratories"
Could someone please tell me what this statement means and also what the writer may think that it means.
This seems to be used very often and I am not sure if it is deemed to be correct and I am out of date or if it is just poor use of the language.
