Eric Boehlert’s Final Press Run

Filosofa's Word

When I received this newsletter by Eric Boehlert, founder of Press Run on Monday, I set it aside, knowing I wanted to use it in a blog post, but I hadn’t gotten around to it yet.  Yesterday I learned that on Monday, the same day this article was published, Eric Boehlert was hit and killed by a train while riding his bicycle.  That news took my breath.  Eric Boehlert has done a fine job of holding the media accountable, holding their feet to the fire, and he will be sorely missed by those of us who read and appreciated his perspective.


Why is the press rooting against Biden?

Burying great news

Eric Boehlert, 4 April 2022

Like clockwork, the first Friday of the month brought another blockbuster jobs report. The U.S. economy under President Joe Biden added another 400,000-plus new jobs in March, it was announced last week.

Biden is…

The next morning there was an envelope under our door.

“Eviction?” I mouthed

“Embassy,” He stated as he ripped open the envelope. ‘As a citizen of the …. You are being strongly urged us to leave Ukraine.’ It says: ‘If you choose to stay, your embassy cannot assure your safety Please be advised the last flight, leaves tomorrow at 10am.’

“Hmmm.”

“Should we call someone?”

“We were told.” I mouthed to tell no one.

“Let’s call granny and tell her we have decided to stay.” My husband said in an intentionally loud voice.

Anything else we might need? I wrote on our notepad.

“Yes, courage.” He wanted to shout.

We called granny.

“Hi mom. Yes, we are doing great. We are staying to do more writing. Oh, it’s completely safe. When you talk to your grandchildren tell them we are staying in a nice old hotel. You are so…

Doctors Don’t Take Dr. Oz Seriously, Neither Should Pennsylvania’s Voters

Dr. Oz’s Advice

The single most damning study of Dr. Oz and his TV money-maker The Dr. Oz Show was published in the prestigious British Medical Journal in 2014. A group of scientists at Canada’s University of Alberta medical school studied what medical recommendations were made on Dr. Oz’s show and whether there was any scientific evidence to support them.

Dr. Oz most commonly dispenses general medical advice, dietary advice, and weight loss tips. He recommended consulting a healthcare professional only 9 percent of the time – in contrast to another TV advice-dispensing show called The Doctors where the show recommends consulting a healthcare professional 33 percent of the time. Dr. Oz seems to think he knows best.

Most importantly the researchers found that there was either no scientific evidence supporting the advice dispensed on The Dr. Oz Show or the evidence showed that the advice given was contradicted by science a colossal 67.6 percent of the time.

‘Dangerous Rogue’

If it isn’t bad enough that the advice Dr. Oz gives you is wrong, perhaps it should give you pause that this candidate for US Senate dispenses advice without acknowledging the nonsense he is dispensing or his TV show guests’ financial conflicts of interest.

Fox News Doctors Clips of Joe Biden and Barack Obama – Rolling Stone

The only problem is that both clips were taken out of context. Biden does look a little confused in the first clip, but it’s only because he’s looking for someone, perhaps Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, whom he brings up onstage to applause shortly after the conservative media cut ends. The second clip ends right before Biden gets Obama’s attention and introduces him to someone. Twitter user @acyn helpfully attached the full clips to the end of the Fox News segments lambasting the edited versions.
