A half century old exposé on medical quackery from the television show Confidential File hosted by Paul Coates. 
I&#8217;m putting this up to illustrate the point I&#8217;ve been banging on about in the comments thread under the clip of present day quack, Gary Null: that harmless things like homeopathy can kill people because they prevent [...]]]></description>

Today is FEBL day, and our last example is this from Gary Null. Null communicates all manner of nonsense about health and has a huge axe to grind against doctors. His ideas are widely accused of being very dangerous. 
Null speaks in a a very soft, unnaturally calm voice, which scares me, and runs a [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve just finished Reading Ben Goldacre&#8217;s book, &#8216;Bad Science&#8217;, that lambasts various forms of quackery and pseudo science. Here is a New Scientist interview with him. I have also embedded a clip of Gillian McKeith a well know TV presenter in the UK, who encourages people to eat healthily, but does so in a way [...]]]></description>

Contrary to what people might think, I am not some kind of anti-copyright nut. Most of the things I link to are items I would be watching if I were either located in the part of the world they showed for free, or at home when aired. SmashingTelly is, if you like, my VCR.
