A form of fallacious argument, in which
one will present a large list of anecdotes and
small-scale studies individually selected in order to make a point, while ignoring anecdotes and
small-scale studies indicating the opposite ("cherry picking"), and more importantly, ignoring the fact that large-scale, properly executed studies invariably demonstrate the viewpoint opposed to the cherry-basketer.
A form of "quantity over quality" argument and a staple of conspiracy theorists.
