I wish everyone in the Western world was able to see through this kind of stuff. Sadly, most people lack either the critical thinking skills or the *facts*. I'm really disappointed in CNN.

(edit: ) I just sent CNN a nastygram.

Shame on you, CNN, for giving the inaptly named "Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine" any commentary space in one of your health stories. PCRM's mandate is to convince people to spare the lives of animals, not to learn the truth about nutritional health. They are funded by PETA and has been censured by the AMA for its "unethical tactics" ( http://www.consumerfreedom.com/acti...fm?DONOR_ID=106 ). 95% of their membership are *not* MDs, and Neil Barnard is a non-practicing psychiatrist. Surely you could have found a more trustworthy source of commentary on this study.
