...Italian Americans by using the pejorative "Guidos" and goes on to say all eight cast members are Italian American--which is not true. The overwhelming majority of the 21 million--plus Americans of Italian descent are honorable, decent, law abiding and intelligent. Like me, they are professionals whose children have graduated from the best colleges and universities in the U.S. You owe the 21 million--plus an apology. As a self-proclaimed New Jersey native, do you have enough "testosterone" to deliver...
There are few children more vulnerable than the youth of Haiti. So when the western hemisphere's poorest country was ravaged by the Jan. 12 earthquake, people in the developed world turned their Brad-and-Angelina eyes to the tens of thousands left orphaned in the rubble. Well-meaning interest in adopting Haitian kids has spiked worldwide, prompting the Haitian government to apply the brakes for fear that amid the chaos, children might be whisked away illegally.

British vaccination rates subsequently tumbled, and measles cases increased. A number of studies have challenged Wakefield's claims, leading to a reassessment of the original paper that discovered problems with his methodology and conflicts of interest...
...methods were the subject of what was almost certainly the longest medical-misconduct inquiry in British history. The General Medical Council, which licenses British doctors, ruled on Jan. 28 that Wakefield and two of his co-investigators had acted dishonestly and irresponsibly and shown "callous disregard" for the 12 children in the study, which suggested that symptoms of autism in eight of the children and gastrointestinal trouble in all 12 were somehow linked with exposure to the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine...
