TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Concern for truth: driving defensively when confronting a zombie epidemic JO - Journal of psychosocial nursing and mental health services A1 - Howland, Robert H. SP - 9 EP - 12 VL - 51 IS - 11 N2 - The newly approved drug Diclegis(®), indicated for the treatment of nausea and vomiting associated with pregnancy, has a very interesting background story going back more than 50 years, in which science, celebrity individuals, the media, and the courts crossed paths. The story illustrates how concepts of truth, evidence, objectivity, and disinterested inquiry can become distorted in various ways, and this is especially relevant and prevalent in today's media environment of cable television, talk radio, and especially the Internet.
