There was a recent email on the Med-lib listserv linking out to an article title, Medical News: 10 Rules to Expose Medical Junk News . This article requires a free registration to read. The content is based on Gary Schwitzer's review criteria from his website, HealthNewsReview .

HealthNewsReview seems to be a bit of the Snopes of the medical reporting field. A great new resource that I had not known about.

Thanks to Carol Seiler for pointing this one out!
