Friday, November 04, 2005So where did this 'cure' talk come from? Don't blame Herceptin maker Genentech, which issued an appropriately milquetoast press release. This disinformation was your tax dollars at work. It originated with Dr. Jo Anne Zujewski head of breast-cancer therapeutics at the government's National Cancer Institute. 'In 1991, I didn't know that we would cure breast cancer,' she exclaimed of the studies, 'and in 2005, I'm convinced we have.' The Associated Press shot that line 'round the world and ('investigative reporter' having become essentially oxymoronic) it was repeated endlessly. Why read a study when you can just quote somebody? posted by Sydney on 11/04/2005 08:29:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
