...say what you mean & mean what you say...: Instigator

Instigator

Dr. Mehmet Oz

Fear mongering instigator. Helpful messages can be lost when you're under pressure to create and (over)produce a riveting one-hour show every day of the week. His expertise is better utilized on a guest basis.

What was his show about that prompted this post?; February 3, 2011 at 4:08:00 PM EST
Marvin said...: I pay no attention to celebrity-doctors on TV. Are you referring to a specific incident, or just his annoying presence in general? I think Sanjay Gupta is just as annoying, if not more so.

What's new in your world? It's so nice to see you post.; February 3, 2011 at 5:56:00 PM EST

Dr. Deb said...: Sadly, psychological research shows that fear mongering is a great way to keep audience viewership. I agree, I find his shows especially fear-based. I hope the tone changes.; February 18, 2011 at 5:06:00 PM EST
