Surprising comment from Ben Goldacre on The World Tonight last night. Bemoaning the one-sided press coverage of Andrew Wakefield’s allegations about the MMR jab (from around 37:30), he said:
… what I would ask is that journalists describe the evidence clearly, and describe the strengths and weaknesses, and also give a balanced picture of the weight of medical opinion.
Evidence? Described clearly? Balanced picture? Has he EVER READ a British newspaper?
