Wow, just what we need, a show where a trial lawyer is the hero! A bit late for John Edwards, tho. I thought there was a writer's strike going on.

ABC has an interesting take on “family programming”. On some show I passed through on the remote control I caught a bit from one of theirs showing a five-year old kid pointing to a computer and calling it “Daddy’s naked women machine”. Full laugh track chuckles and guffaws. This was at 8pm.

Critics of childhood immunization have argued that thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative formerly used in vaccines, is a primary cause of an autism in young children.

FWIW, thimerosal has not been used in vaccines for a number of years now. Autism rates have continued to increase at the same rate as when it was being used.

You gotta love the networks: always a day late and a dollar short. That particular “debate” is now over.

Even if it were still going on, you have to wonder at a special interest group claiming that a TV show is so utterly powerful that their clients will be instantly taken in by a plot line.

That says a lot for how pediatricians view parents.

How about a show on a brave attorney who took on the cell phone manufacturers for causing cancer? Or one who sues the maker of Teflon, or aluminum cookware, for causing alzheimers? Or about breast implants causing cancer?
