Consumer Reports - Profile In Incompetence (Update)

Today is April 30, 2009. No response from CR since June 11, 2007.

Here is a chronicle of my communications with Consumer Reports re: their June 2007 cover story on "Rating the Diets."

The quality of their work is, IMHO, shamefully shoddy and their analytical skills fatally flawed - just like diet programs.

Of particular interest is CR's response, via a Mr. Harzewski speaking for the Editors.

Read it all.

Then, you decide.

To me, these folks are dangerously incompetent.

Caveat subscriber.

I saw your blog very interesting and I like it. I'm looking for consumer issues and to know other information on it. While I do search I found a good reference of consumer issues and teach us to have a good relationship with retailers or owners. You can have it here - Consumer Reports
