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

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

Posted on 2/23/2017, 9:55:44 AM by Mozilla

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.

This is just more of the same.

Get these claims out there as many times as possible on the MSNBCs and CNNs of the world and eventually people will think they are true and factual.

Without any evidence to back-up the claims or substantiate their statements.

This used to be called rumor-mongering or gossip-spreading or plain old storytelling, as in lying.

Look it up in the current political dictionary. It's called FAKE NEWS.

Isn’t this the guy that the GOPe worked to put in the Senate so as to keep Christine O’Donnel out? Reason being COD would have thrown a wrench in the 0bamacare works.

If memory serves...

Excerpts from the WT version of the story: Sen. Coons: FBI may have transcripts showing ‘collusion’ between Trump campaign, Russia ---

1) The senator later took to Twitter to tamp down the liberal excitement over a possible smoking gun. He emphasized that such transcripts “could” show collusion. He does not know.

Oh, I see, so they "could" show it .... Or not. Conceivably these same transcripts could show where Jimmy Hoffa's body is buried, or where Coronado's Treasure is hidden, or the map to the Seven Cities of Cibola, or Atlantis. Mind you I'm not saying they do or they don't. I'm just saying they "could". So consider that enough reason to print a 100-point font headline based on my startling new revelation, ok?

2) Note Coons is - ironically! - on the Senate Intelligence Committee. Meanwhile, over on the House side of this joint investigation: "House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, California Republican, has said at two press conferences that he has seen no evidence of Trump-Russia contacts or collusion during the campaign."

BOTTOM LINE: The House half of the investigation has not seen the slightest bit of evidence. But a Democrat on the Senate side trumpets to the world that "there *could* be" evidence, and then backs away from it to say that he's not seen it, but he can't rule out that it does NOT exist.

3) Some great comments at the WT link above. Here's one: "While I have no proof, I believe Chris [Sen Coons, D-DE] has a dead hooker in his closet. We must investigate further." Heh heh!
