So with that sort of science background available on the web for anyone to see in a few seconds of searching, one wonders how CBS News was duped into running a story like this without even bothering to check into the author.

Great post, 1rude. Thanks.

You know, I don’t CBS was duped in the traditional sense of the word. I just think they don’t care about the “source” and run the story as long as it fits their agenda. Most of the time they don’t get called on it regardless of the validity. When they do, they bob and weave & it goes away quickly.

It says he’s a doctor, so what he says must be true. What more fact-checking could you possibly need?
