redflagsweekly.com ----------------- The mission of redflagsweekly.com is to probe medical, scientific, environmental, artistic and political issues in a manner that one rarely encounters in mainstream news reports. Corporate bottom lines and inadequate training in specialty journalism often provide the reading, viewing and listening public with narrow and simplistic information. Press release journalism in medicine, for example, a process that often involves aggressive PR firms in the service of powerful corporations, hospitals and medical journals, typically rules the roost. It is the path of least resistance. The "dumb it down" gang is all too often in control. There also is a high degree of censorship in the news of those views that challenge the established viewpoints in science. Some scientists even seem preoccupied with efforts to discourage debates about important issues that affect many lives. Our culture's artistic life is also heavily influenced by the ever-growing concentration of corporate power and huge PR campaigns. This site will raise "red flags" or issues that require public attention and debate.
