      My thanks to both @eugenegu and @aholdenj for rising above my wrath and speaking to me like adults. Neither had to do that, and both of them did. This was a reality check for me. I think I needed it badly.

      Yes. After speaking to her, I deleted a couple of rather colourful tweets that I took too far. Then she made me regret that decision.

      Here, I meant. After I toned it down and apologised she DMed me and made it seem she was willing to listen to what I (and all the other docs) had to say, but it was a ruse.

      Ah, well, I blocked her after she blocked me. That's my policy. You block me, and I'll be damned if I let you see my subsequent Tweets. I know that with most people it doesn't matter because they'll never check, but a few do.

      Well it seems she has now protected her tweets. Funny, that.

      So I guess she doesn’t really want to see your critique of the episodes she suggested you critique? Again, anything that may negatively effect ratings will be seen as a threat, no matter how accurate it is.

      Nope, she told me rather rudely by DM not to watch and not to bother her. I will gladly not waste several hours on that dreck.

      She is an ideologue and self-righteous asshole. There's really no other way to put it. I've thought of blogging on @ScienceBasedMed and @oracknows just how bad, from a medical standpoint, #TheResident is, but haven't gotten around to it. Probably not worth the effort.

          Nope. I think she lives by the "Any publicity is good publicity" angle.

          You’d be better off writing abt the excellent medical shows from the past, and the contemporary ones, without any mention whatsoever of her or her show. Zero. That’s probably an article worth writing and reading, no?
