Orac's Tic
https://chemxtree.com/1xm21yme Nobody in the blogosphere takes on the anti-vaccine movement with more passion than Orac, who is a surgeon and biomedical researcher. Stylistically, Orac is a bit long-winded for my taste, but his thoroughness is admirable and appreciated. While some may disapprove of his acidic tone, his persistent deconstruction of the arguments and propaganda advanced by the well-organized anti-vaccine movement is both on the mark and necessary.
https://www.scarpellino.com/0fww71plsqw But like many in the climate change concerned community who see “false balance” lurking everywhere in the news media, Orac has the same tic with respect to vaccine-related reportage. In his latest so-called example, he really reaches to make the charge, and even then, he’s doing it not with any sense of conviction or evidence, just seemingly out of habit. It’s that obvious.
https://www.fogliandpartners.com/yo3mgk8zlhttps://hazenfoundation.org/r8sd6al The fact that he can’t help himself suggests to me that he’s hostage to this tic, and perhaps as willfully ignorant of journalistic principles and ethics as anti-vaxxers are of science.

https://ballymenachamber.co.uk/?p=2vywwwohttps://www.infoturismiamoci.com/2025/03/xcy6nynq6 Oh (#3), okay, now I get it. You probably are referring to Romm. Unfortunately, that’s a disservice to Orac, but in point of fact, they both do share the same antipathy towards the media, and thus the same blind spot.
Buy Zolpidem Tartrate 10 Mghttps://www.salernoformazione.com/d048l5v I am about to have my first child, so the vaxx-anti vaxx thing has of course recently come up. My partner did 3 years of Naturopathy ,she naturally felt stridently anti-vaxx. I mentioned the thing about Wakefield and the Lancet scandal, but she didn’t believe me. She said- ‘where did you get that from’? I said, ‘Keith Kloor’s blog, he’s an environmental journalist’. She said you weren’t reputable. I had to shrug and agree.
https://ottawaphotographer.com/h51r38ha The other day she came home from talking to a friend who gave her the same story. So it looks like we’ll be vaccinating our child afterall.

Oh, and Marlowe, presuming you meant to draw an equivalence between Romm and Orac–and my rejection of this–let’s go back to some near history.
