Dr. Oz: EEG Brain Scans Reveal Fake News Threatens Your Health

Observer ^ | 2/23/17 | Dr. Mehmet Oz

Our show will spotlight a first-of-its-kind social experiment to identify the dangerous and disruptive effect of fake news on our brains. We had high profile fake news creator Jestin Coler craft two fictional stories: one designed to prey on liberals and another on conservatives.
Women read the articles, not knowing they were fake, as neuropsychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen gathered quantitative EEG assessments.

The findings supported results of a functional MRI study recently published in Nature Scientific Reports, which showed how challenging a person’s political beliefs could activate the parts of the brain associated with emotion and self-identity.

A self-described liberal woman in our social experiment reported feeling sad after reading a fictional article on illegal immigrants, but revealed stronger irritation and anger when processing a fake story about a jailed climate change researcher. Simultaneous changes in her brain activity were also much greater when processing the climate change story and correlated with a strong emotional response of angst and fear.

A conservative woman demonstrated opposite reactions. For her, the article on illegal immigration elicited changes in brain activity changes that you would see during a physical threat.

The women were not told that the articles were fake until they were seated on stage. What happened next was startling. First, the women understandably, but awkwardly, tried to defend why they believed the false stories, rather than expressing frustration that they had been duped. This natural human tendency was highlighted by one woman’s comment that while the news was fake, it reinforced a truth she felt about our country—so the piece was tolerable.

No one in my circle wants any violence in the world, we’ve experienced it first hand, yet still prepare and train daily to counter it as it presents itself if at all possible be we together or alone ..... we can never stop it. We can only mitigate the damage. Efforts to see it coming are a 24/7 task. Awareness of threats at all levels be they immediate and local or worldwide and imminent is a life skill that is elementary to survival.

That said Homeland Security, without a boogie man, does not earn they’re budget, titles, authority and toys.

Some threats are embellished, fabricated and fantasy . We have to separate the wheat from the chaff per se and keep such panic factories on leash. Our responsibility. Not some pandering polidiot or professional liars I call presstitutes .

People, ordinary everyday citizens be they left or right of the political center must wise up and not be used by handlers with agendas as social experiments.

Decide for yourselves, your family, your community and our country.

ALL information in contaminated in some form or fashion when we receive it from others. Remember as children they sat 12 or more of us down in a long line and whispered something into the first persons ear and told em to pass it on ? It was never accurate or complete.

Stay Safe !
