"What Doctors Don't Tell You"

What Doctors Don’t Tell You magazine pulled from supermarket shelves

A magazine spouting “complimentary therapies and alternative medicines” and telling readers how to protect themselves from 5G has been yanked from Coles and Woolworths shelves nationwide.

The decision on the April-May 2020 edition of What Doctors Don’t Tell You was made on Tuesday afternoon after Sydney 2GB radio host Ben Fordham expressed outrage at it being stocked in Australia’s two biggest supermarkets.

He said the publication was “filled with dangerous misinformation”, “dodgy medical advice” and “full of all the usual conspiracy theories”.

The front cover of the edition shared by Fordham hints at articles on healing spines without surgery, healing diabetes and “healing your heart after a heart attack”.

“Protect yourself from Wi-Fi and 5G, a step-by-step guide to staying safe,” another headline states.

There goes "Freedom of Speech"...

[*kazumi*]

The way I understand what has happened was a particular issue was pulled; the publication was “filled with dangerous misinformation”, “dodgy medical advice” and “full of all the usual conspiracy theories”.  Maybe some $15 000 light that cures COVID19 ad?

"What Coles was shown when they were originally shown the magazine is different content to what is in this edition."

I do not think it was pulled because of recommendations about healthy nutrition.  Every doctor I know agrees that eating healthy food is the first step of protecting ourselves against disease.

"The way I understand"...

But you don't actually know, do you? Because you didn't read the magazine.

But "I do not think it was pulled because of reccommendations about healthy nutrition".

Of course it wasn't, and you know it. And it wasn't pulled because any harmful to health reccommendations were in it, either.

It was pulled because of media pressure. Not by the government or any medical organisation, or any doctor.

Try to understand it that way.

With freedom comes responsibility.  Nobody has the right to spout any dangerous claim they want to

here's a recent example of what you're saying about dangerous claims  Kazumi

https://www.nydailynews.com/coronavirus/ny-coronavirus-new-yorkers-household-cleaners-trump-20200425...

An unusually high number of New Yorkers contacted city health authorities over fears that they had ingested bleach or other household cleaners in the 18 hours that followed President Trump’s bogus claim that injecting such products could cure coronavirus, the Daily News has learned.

Fact: Coles and Woolworths pulled the magazine from their shelves.

Question: Was Ben Fordham exercising his right to free speech?

Question: Were Coles and Woolworths exercising their right to decide what products they would or wouldn’t sell?

Well, were Coles shown another issue or some kind of expanded version that normally is not on the shelves?  Who showed it to them? As they stock the issue themselves, they'd only have to send one of their staff to a branch to pick up  a copy or get it couriered to their HO.

Well, that's the issue I have. Same cover with a guy hunched over carrrying an oversized anvil on his back. And they're talking about that issue!

Oh and they have an accompnying video about coonspiracy theories, mentions Wuhan virus etc, then  talking about how people buying into conspiracy theories because they want to feel unique etc. Also mentions JFK assaination and moon landing etc. Nothing to do with the mag and very misleading.

I don't think it was pulled off the shelf because of the healthy ontent either. And becuse that issue doesn''t  have anything about Corona virus or the magic 15,000 ray device you mentioned, I can't see what else would warrent such an action for that issue. The only thing left that someone could find offensive is the article WARNING (if you want to call it that) about the dangers of 5G.

While doctors know the basics and agree that healthy eating is beneficial, that's all the majority of them know. That's why tthey refer people to dieticians or on occasion, homeopaths. Many have no idea about the dangers of too much fluoride or what leaking mercury fillings can do. One doctor said ...  "Oh really, you mean to say they still put mercury in people's teeth?.  Gosh I didn't know that. I thought that it was toxic".

Here's a bit about the media and how it works . Also a bit more.

Yes. He exercised the right of Freedom of the Press

Yes. they exercised the right to choose the products they stock.

Furthermore, the publisher of the magazine still may exercise the right to publish it, and the writers their right to continue writing their articles.

The ones losing their rights are the public, who are no longer able to execise their right to purchase this magazine from their local supermarket. Thanks to Ben Fordham who used his broadcasting power to supress another media entity.

The point here is, some are exercising their right of speech to deny others their right to freedom of choice and expression.

It's called "supression".

Others may call it "herding the sheep"

if you're really desperate to buy this magazine...  google who their stockists are

it's not as if it's been banned

as far as Coles and Woolies go. it was a new magazine they were trialing, not a great seller for them by the sounds of it.. so they made a decision not to stock it. assissted by comments from a radio shock jock 

I used to buy a dollhouse miniatures magazine that was never stocked by Coles and Woolies... but I never saw that as "suppression"  I just purchased it elsewhere

Fact: The public has never had the right to buy anything they like from anywhere they like.

Fact: supermarkets have always had the right to decided what products they will sell.

Ppl probably would never have heard of it before they'd seen it in the magazine racks. Benny Fordham quickly saw to it that it was removed from public view. Before the public could actually get a light-bulb moment and think of alternatives to the endless drugs they're taking and fattening the profits of the pharmaceuticals.

it's not as if it's been banned.

Exactly. It hasn't been banned. Obviously because it's contents are not harmful. So why would Ben Fordham feel he has the right to shame Coles and Woolies into taking it off their shelves? Flexing his journalistic muscle?

as far as Coles and Woolies go. it was a new magazine they were trialing, not a great seller for them by the sounds of it.. so they made a decision not to stock it. assissted by comments from a radio shock jock 

Another example of the media controlling public opinion.

I used to buy a dollhouse miniatures magazine that was never stocked by Coles and Woolies... but I never saw that as "suppression"  I just purchased it elsewhere.

Sure, one can buy "What The Doctors Don't Tell You" elsewhere, I imagine Newsagents would stock it. Or you could go online.

But media pressure has ensured it's no longer "mainstream".
