      The media broadcast the views of a narrow group of the most pessimistic of"experts" while giving little or no air time to the views of other "experts" that expound a different approach.

          It's almost as if they broadcast the official public health advice. Public health doesn't work if everyone makes there own decisions as to what advice to follow Witness measles outbreaks after declines in MMR uptake. This is orders of magnitude more serious.
