Young Woman Featured in Gardasil Media Attention Passes Away.

http://www.ageofautism.com/2009/03/mainstream-medi.html

We've learned today that Jenny Tetlock passed away on Sunday. Her neurologists cited an unusual form of childhood ALS. Others point to Gardasil. Our sincere condolences to her family whose blog is HERE. Below is a post we ran last July.

By Kim Stagliano

This article on the paralysis of Miss Jenny Tetlock, perhaps from her Gardasil vaccination, is from US News and World Report, a bastion of mainstream, conservative reporting.

Note that her father is a professor at a top university. We wish the Tetlock family, especially young Jenny, well. We wrote about her tragic situation HERE. Did blogs help move this story along? We hope so.

Complaint Against Brian Deer Filed by Dr. Andrew Wakefield

Brian Deer, journalism at it's worse!!
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article676040.ece

A formal complaint against journalist Brian Deer was delivered to the Press Complaints Commission (PCC) today, March 16, 2009, on behalf of Dr. Andrew Wakefield, the physician whose autism research has been the subject of several articles in the Sunday Times.

Deer is accused in the PCC document of publishing incorrect information and also of having a conflict of interest caused by his involvement in the General Medical Committee's(GMC) investigation of Wakefield.


"Journalists clearly have a right and responsibility to report on matters of public interest", Wakefield said. "But they also have an obligation to make certain their information is accurate--especially when someone's livelihood and professional reputation are at stake. Mr. Deer has failed miserably as a reporter and has done great harm to me and many others conducting autism research".

Horray for Dr. Wakefield!!! One of the last good doctors!! Read the complaint.

April is Autism Awareness Month
