Love the sentiment about a free and independent press!

I really hope you aren't referencing the New York Times with your post.

Well, you read the random summary and not the actual book so you're the expert here.

Any eye catching news headlines you would like to share?

No thanks to the nanny warning. I've reading plenty of books on alternative medicine and without exception they all have a warning along these lines:

This information does not create any patient-physician relationship, and should not be used as a substitute for professional diagnosis and treatment. Please consult your health care provider before making any health care decisions or for guidance about a specific medical condition."

An additional sign is not necessary IMO. We're grown adults.

Why'd this get downvoted? It is pretty much dead on accurate
