Re: McCarron, new Associated Press -- lousy reporting

[Guest guest]

I know Glenmullen's work and this is the worst reporting I've seen in a

long time and it's no doubt deliberate. I'd be willing to bet that

Glenmullen's statements were expurgated, taken out of context and

twisted in this article. First off, Glenmullen's a " him " . Secondly, the

only reaason that the defense would have contacted Glenmullen is

because they must be trying to convince the court that the

antidepressants were part of what triggered McCarron's behavior. That's

what Glenmullen does.

The problem for the pharma friendly press is how they're going to

suppress what Glenmullen actually says about the medications in

McCarron's case. Pharma won't like it, so it won't be accurately

reported and the case may drop off the radar as more on the medications

is disclosed. I'm assuming that the prosecution will attempt to invoke

the Daubert ruling to get Glenmullen's testimony thrown out.

ph Glenmullen is a major national psychiatric reform activist who's

written books, articles and studies on the dangers of psychiatric

drugs, including the danger of suicidality and violence:
