My guess is 50/50. Who the hell would ever trust her to a) do research (something (which she never does), and b) honestly present it.<BR/><BR/>Megan's been blogging about how the Lancet study sucks since last year, when I started "reading" her. Her partisanship knows no bounds.<BR/><BR/>I'm confident that some of these epidemiologists who wrote the Lancet study aren't going take Megan's slander sitting down. <BR/>As I understand it these scientists went door to door in the Iraq war zone--risking their lives--to randomly interview Iraqis about how many of their family members got killed in the war.<BR/><BR/>I don't think these people are going to let Megan trash them in the Atlantic, a national publication, without a fight. I say, "Bring it on."Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02542482805956029911noreply@blogger.com
