Media Goes in Tank For Vilsack

As I suspected, the media is just swallowing the tripe served up by Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack about new medical treatments from nuclear transfer requiring a change in the Iowa law. THERE HAVE BEEN NO NEW TREATMENTS. THERE HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS TAKEN FROM CLONED EMBRYOS!

You'd think the media would ask the governor to explain. But that would require real journalism instead of merely reporting off of press releases. Example: Des Moines Register. Ditto the Associated Press.

I have also emailed my comments to Governor Vilsack to the Des Moines Register and the Iowa City Press Citizen.

We'll see!

And notice in the AP story that the scientists say that cloning is the way to go. Hwang? Who's he? No studies proving efficacy yet in animals? So what.
