This sophomoric oversimplification of the work in question is typical of today's
youth, unwilling to listen for more than half a minute, unable to read and
extract content, and even less capable of writing anything that effectively
communicates a well-congealed thought. If the actual work had been digested no
person with three grey-cells would have drawn such a conclusion.

Some of Shannon's better known known theorems include
the Sampling Theorem, which indicates that a bandwidth-limited
signal can be reconstructed only if sampled at least at twice
the frequency of the highest-frequency spectral content.
Take a 1 Vpp@40Hz Sinewave, highest-frequency spectral content is 40Hz,
sample it at twice this frequency, 80Hz, sample at 0 and 180 degrees (0Vpp
Amplitude), the reconstructed sinewave will be 0Vpp at 0 Hz. Oh well, guess
Shannon's theorem is incorrect...
