"You won’t be seeing network TV health news stories show up in the reviews on this site any more – at least not in the way they’ve appeared in the past. Reasons:Health News Review is a watchdog organization that is fed-up with the consistently poor performance of sick care coverage on the MSM-affiliated boob tube channels.
• This is just one part of an overall change we’ll be announcing soon - a change in the entire scope of which news organizations we will review.
• We can’t review everything.
• Reviewing the TV news segments is the most time-consuming part of our work because we transcribe the broadcasts ourselves.
• After 3.5 years and 228 network TV health segments reviewed, we can make the data-driven statement that many of the stories are bad and they’re not getting much better.
• Our last publisher’s note

gave details on the embarrassing performance of the networks’ morning health news segments."
Fitness Watch is your site for making sense of fitness advice.
"Truth" has a shelf life.
The shelf life of "truth" is very short in the domains of fitness, health and well-being.
The reason is that so much of what we are told is "true" is really baseless.
At Fitness Watch we separate fitness information from fitness noise.
