Part of the problem is that the article she is basing this on is, I think, somewhat misleading in how it presents the story, something not uncommon in media reports regarding evolution, and thus not entirely O’Leary’s fault.

Sorry, but if you spend a fair bit of your time commenting on evolutionary biology, as O’Leary does, and you don’t know how to interpret a phylogenetic tree, and she doesn’t, that is entirely your fault. I agree that the article was poorly written though.
