   yep well, the old thread (below) here got closed so here we go again.

   http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/lurid-tales-of-doom-a-first-shameless-plug-for-a-new-shameless-blog

   the description from the old thread is pretty much still true, "Lurid Tales of Doom is a blog on journalism, media, politics and how those three interact with the mad, beautiful, terrible world around them - coverage of the coverage essentially."

   Basically, apart from starting a new showcase thread, just want to tell all the people who didn't know I was gone in the first place that I'm back.

   The blog I need help with is luridtalesofdoom.wordpress.com.

   A US medical devices company's horrifying attempt to stifle debate and protect their apparent snake oil peddling, and why CFAs may in fact be useful in libel law after all.

   Lord Patten is likely to take the position of Chairman at the BBC trust, this is why I think he's not the man for the job because of potentially having a pro-Europe bias.

   Some thoughts on 'Blue Monday' and other bits of pseudo-scientific churnalism.

   More lazy churnalism. This time coming from the supposedly advert-free BBC. Particularly irritating for me as it's BBC Scotland and a company from Scotland - from my own back yard as it were.
