Thread: "Dr" Gillian McKeith

  1. #1

    "Dr" Gillian McKeith

    A few friends of mine have done a rather spiffy animation song and dance of the poo lady.

    You really need sound for this - fantastic stuff.

    Not really work safe, or if you don't like to watch dancing poo.

    "Dr" Gillian McKeith

    :D

    As La McKeith says: you can never have too much poo

    For those with a copraphilliac dispostion see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol_Stool_Chart

    Forget Everest, or transversing the Gobi Desert on a three legged yak

    The holy grail of achievements has to be the perfect chocolate whippy

    A truly excellent excrement

    Sob...help me

    how horribly predictable. Hiding behind the UK libel laws is the lowest form of intellectual cowardice.

    Hopefully it'll appear on a site beyond UK juristiction shortly.

    Well there goes my commentary entry. >:(

    I guess it was defamatory. It wouldn't be right to ridicule a a highly qualified doctor like her would it?

    I noticed on the Bad Science board that her company still refers to her as Dr. McKeith even though everyone knows her PhD is not accredited.

    Dr isn't a protected title though, anyone can use it.

    Love,

    Dr Tracy King

    And often counterproductive. For example, when she sued The Sun recently, one of the results was that the Sun's allegations, while no longer appearing on its own website, are now preserved in a High Court judgment.

    So apparantly someone complained to the Advertising Standards Authority. 'Dr' Mckeith has now voluntarily given up using the title to avoid a public ruling by the ASA.

    Not quite as satisfying as seeing her thrown into jail but it's a start.

    It's the 'Gillian's' face and jaw that's very disturbing :o

    She's a prime example of how both the media and the general public will fall for false claims and pure, unadulterated nonsense.

    That video's great. :D
