The paraplegic woman was treated with stem cells from umbilical cord blood according to Stem cell 'miracle' fleeting.

Stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood may be an alternative to embryonic ones after all

The network needs to have somebody in charge who can restore a higher level of honesty. You know, like Dan Rather.

LOL!

It is important to remember always that the mission of the dying, dinosaur "mainstream" liberal newsrooms (CBS, New York Times, etc.) is to promote the Democrat Party. Since the Democrat Party has hung its hat on abortion, the "mainstream" liberal newsrooms have coolly decided to carefully meld "abortion" with "stem cell miracle cures" in the public's mind. Their hope is that the great big inattentive chattering class will subliminally conclude that "abortions" equals "stem cells" equals "stem cell miracle cures". Add to that the liberal newsrooms' already successful strategy of melding in the public's mind the lie that "overturning Roe" = "making abortion illegal".

The general lie that the liberal newsrooms are trying to promote is: "Republicans want to overturn Roe v. Wade, thereby making abortion illegal and causing people to die needlessly because they are deprived of the miracle cures promised by stem cell research. On the other hand, Democrats want to preserve Roe, keep abortion legal, and fund stem cell research so that everybody can live to be 110."

What would truly be surprising to me would be to see one of these dying, dinosaur "mainstream" Democrat newsrooms make the distinction between adult and embryonic stem cells in one of their stories. It won't happen, of course, because that would contradict the whole scheme described above.

But anyway, it is easy to understand exactly WHY the scumbag liberal newsrooms will never tell the truth about adult vs. embryonic stem cell research. It's all about promoting their party.

It amazes me still, the power the media has to frame a debate by virtue of what it does or does not tell.

There should be a stem-cell debate, but it's being prevented.

Like most of the media, it remains obsessed with promoting a will o’
the wisp science while ignoring an alternative that’s been saving lives
for decades and also avoids ethical concerns.

It's simple. There are a lot of left-leaning types in academic science
(yeah, not as many as in the liberal arts).
They want a technique/problem that will guarantee funding forever,
now that AIDs has leveled out as a "crisis".
Entrepreneurs generally aren't funding embryonic research (AFAIK),
so the next source of cash is the guvmint/taxpayers.

Hence, workable alternatives must be ignored.

(Embryonics may yet be a "magic bullet", but for now, their supporters
really need to keep adult stem-cells out of the public eye as much as possible.)

CBS either knew or should have known about all of these developments, yet it mentioned none. The BM (big media) has something significant in common with Islamism: both believe it is fine to lie broadly when promoting their agenda, serving their religion (with the BM the religion is secular humanism).

Interesting article. Wonder why I didn't see it until today.
