Now, in medical news, some doctors do important research. For instance, it was announced that "premenopausal women with early-stage hormone-sensitive breast cancer derived a significant survival benefit when zoledronic acid (Zometa) was added to the adjuvant therapeutic mix," improving survival by 36%, which sounds pretty good from where I'm sitting. Shouldn't that be on the front page of all newspapers and a leading story on FOXNews?
Oh, yeah, that's right -- it's "good news." It's relegated to ... well, this blog in non-professional writings -- I didn't do a vast Google search, just the first search page, and all the hits seem to be medical journals and sources like that. I wouldn't think that only doctors are interested in this kind of thing.
I guess stuff like this doesn't sell newspapers or TV ads or even internet news site ads.
Posted by Bill at June 11, 2008 07:40 AMI hate that stuff like this isn't reported because it doesn't sell newspapers... really annoys the crap out of me. What happened to real media coverage?

Smooches. This is still the best blog going. But heck... too many posts about golf this year. ;) I think you've had like... three or more already. I don't know. Way too many.
