The new blog from the
American Council on Science and Health, called
Facts & Fears, is up and running. Add it to the list of sites doing a good job clarifying health news, dispelling misconceptions, and calling the media to task. The
snopes.com medical section is too sparse, and
junkscience.com is too broad. Hopefully Facts & Fears will be just right.
Their writers have even
weighed in on the obesity crisis that made the blog rounds last month, including a
new take on the movie, Super Size Me. Check it out.
