Daily Mail Warning On Scare Stories
“SCARED TO DEATH,” writes the Mail.
“They said BSE would kill 500,000 people – then changed it to 200. The Millennium Bug was going to destroy civilisation..and, er, nothing happened. In fact, says a new book, it’s scare stories themselves that are the real menace.”
Scare stories. Tsk! In today’s Mail:
“RAPISTS WHO CAN LAUGH AT THE LAW”
“Arthritis patients ‘face a life of pain from drug rationing”
“Flesh-eating MRSA ‘the deadliest of all’”
“Danger drugs for schizophrenics used to calm children of ten”
“Putting on pounds ‘doubles prostate cancer death risk’”
