I know this doesn't really affect anyone else here (that I know of anyway) but articles and BS research like this really piss me off. Quit blaming everything on TV and if you want to find out what causes autism, do some real f***ing research. Not some half assed statistical analysis that is nothing more than an attempt to alarm and mis-inform the public.:mad

what a load of crap! There are real reasons for autism out there. And if TV were one of them ALL kids would be afflicted!

That's total bullshi* Megan!! I can't believe they are even trying to pass that asinine theory off as anything that even resembles actual, legitimate research. I hope you are feeling a little better since your post :hug

Kaisa - I'm not quite so mad now. I can't quite figure out why Time had an article about this though. It just seems like sensational journalism and I don't think of Time as being that kind of publication. Thanks for the hug!

it IS rather rediculous that they gave a study that they apparently don't agree with so much more uneeded publicity.
