However, when researchers announce even greater success using adult stem cells, the media reportage is generally about as intense and excited as a stifled yawn.

You mean to tell me that the media is lying by omission? AGAIN. LOL

The Stem Cell Cover-Up
Posted May 24, 2004
By Michael Fumento

While the overwhelming majority of favorable media coverage of stem cells concerns those pulled from human embryos, called embryonic stem cells (ESCs), not a single treatment listed above has used that kind of cell. In fact, while activists such as spinally injured actor Christopher Reeve rage that but for Bush administration and congressional restrictions on ESC funding he might be walking in a few years, there are no approved treatments - and have been no human trials - involving embryonic stem cells. Each of the above therapies and experiments has involved cells that require no use of embryos.
