Son of God says the flu vaccine will kill your kids
Posted by Mike in Conspiracy Theories, Public Health, vaccination on August 18, 2009
Last week, the British government announced that it would concentrate on immunising vulnerable groups, such as pregnant women and health care professionals, against the H1N1 “swine” flu strain, before considering whether to extend the vaccination program across the wider population. Westminster is reported to have contracts in place for 132 million doses of the vaccine, enough to immunise the entire UK population. Whether they use it or not remains to be seen.
Unfortunately, the vaccination program has attracted the attention of Internet crackpot and former son-of-god David Icke, who contends that the swine flu vaccine is a conspiracy by the Illuminati to cull vast portions of the human population.
Oh dear.
10 reasons the Telegraph needs a science writer

This week being the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission, it isn’t really surprising that the Moon Landing Deniers are getting some coverage in the press. Not in The Telegraph, however. To mark this historic occasion, a newspaper with less self discipline might have printed a puff piece for an MLD group; or perhaps ran an uncritical interview with some conspiracy nut. But not The Telegraph, no. They cut out the middle man and print the Moon Hoax story as if it were fact.
Cheers, guys.
