Well how about that, two Journalism articles in the same day: with all the news about the unfortunate Terri Schiavo case, it seems that the journalists covering it are not really doing their homework.
There is a lot of coverage of this quack who claims to have received a nomination for the Nobel Prize in Medicine, but with 15 minutes of searching, Kasia was able to find that it's all completely bogus.
The central matter in this case is very sad and painful, and one cannot help but have tremendous sympathy for the family. There are honorable positions on both sides, but when the news media includes such bogus quackery, it makes it much more difficult to reach a valid conclusion.
Good work, Kasia.
