Since I only had the time to briefly mention about the problem of "lying with statistics" in the field of medicine, here is a 4.5 minute video of "what doctors don't know about the drugs they prescribe" because of biased sampling (i.e. logic error) in the field of evidence-based-medicine: 

If you would like to watch the full 13.5 minute video, feel free to check out the link below:

Warm regards,
Victor
