I never have either.

My news says that drinking alcohol lets me live 20 years longer. I'll stick with my news.

Unfortunately, very many things are carcinogens - eventually. There's the crux of the matter, that word "eventually"
Bodies go wrong, dividing cells lose vital DNA links, skin loses its depth and elasticity and so on. In the end, we die; some sooner than others.
Technically, in nature, once we are about 15 years beyond the age of being reliably capable of producing healthy children, we are garbage. Of course, I strongly object to that, as do all (probably) humans.
Wine is an interesting study in conflicts. A small amount of red wine can reduce the risk of heart disease - a greater "killer" than cancer. But a large amount is destructive. (Marihuana and its effect on nervous tissue is another "conflict" study. Large amounts definitely affect brain cells deleteriously, yet small amounts stimulate. Caffeine?)
The media do tend to "hype" things - it's good for circulation - so I would query that above headline's wording "Major"? Major compared to what? Alcohol is a major risk factor in drowning. More drunk people drown by falling into canals than sober ones.

Mediterranean Diet, beloved of nutritiionists & the AMA, recommends Aglass of red wine once or twice a day

Sometimes the relief from pain now is worth the potential later risk.
