      Cleverly hidden bias... by Naruki 2004-04-05 09:26:21
I know after watching Bert and Ernie that I always felt like punching someone and then garroting their puppy. ;-)

But I really begin to question if they are being scientific when they say something like this: "The researchers did not know what shows the children watched, but Christakis said content likely is not the culprit."

That sounds very clearly like an anti-television zealot who doesn't care about content - he just wants to prove his theory. To me, Sesame Street is not so bad, but Pokemon would be. If he sounded less biased, then I'd certainly trust their findings a bit more.
