Great site for reviews of media medical articles

I have been reading Health News Review for about six months and found it to be an excellent site. They grade popular media articles on 10 criteria and unfortunately most of the articles do not meet the 10 criteria. I would highly recommend you to read and learn from this free site as it will help you significantly in making your healthcare decisions. Please let me know if you find any info on the site that surprises you.
