It's August now and the swine flu media frenzy rages on. This is so ridiculous! I was having a hard time understanding the feeding frenzy till I was watching the evening news the other night. The ad revenues are all coming from Pharmaceutical companies. I guess the media knows what side their bread is buttered on! They're giving us an "unbiased" accounting the this disease and they're not going to let this go until they have sold every last swine flu vaccine.
