This is not a good policy David. Alot of lay ppl end up seeing these videos. Even ppl who are randomly surfing YouTube or Twitter. They have large followings. Why not open up there audience to a totally new perspective. These shows don’t control your appearance.

This attitude is why we have a problem. I am pro vaccine/science. I am watching these podcasts all the time. Driving home from work…etc . Lay ppl are not going home from work reading research papers and looking up NEJM. If want an educated public, u need to go where they are

Here's the problem. These venues are the worst possible place to educate the public. They are not set up for that. They are set up to entertain by positing a false scientific controversy.
