infotainment |ˌinfōˈtānmənt|
noun
broadcast material that is intended both to entertain and to inform.
Would HBO even bother with a show that did not meet this criteria?
I'm not here to get in an argument It's a case of semantics I suppose.
I watch him regularly and find a lot of what he and his guests say as more of an opinion than actual fact.
And if CNN is infotainment explain Fareed Zakeria and Sanjy Gupta to me.
I can't imagine the latter not doing a segment on a cure for hair loss if it were real.
I've had type 1 diabetes for over 25 years so I know a little about chronic health conditions. I follow the JDFs information on research closely and I'm on their participant list for any new trial (drug or surgical). Sadly I get called rarely because there just isn't anything as effective or as affordable as multiple daily insulin injections yet.
I'm not trying to defend drug companies. They are beholden to stockholders and the money they spend to develop a new drug versus what they actually deliver is outrageous. If insurance doesn't pay for it they don't care.
Lets hope Histogen and Aderans who seem to work outside of big pharma can change that. I for one would have no problem if I had to go for yearly injections to maintain my hair. It would be a cakewalk compared to testing my glucose levels 7 times a day and then having to give myself an injection.
