Misguided Journalists Lack Skepticism

Speaking about dehumanizing vulnerable people, the New York Post refers to a human being as a psychiatric disease. But there is no mention whether this troubled man was taking psychiatric drugs which are a proven cause of suicidal thoughts and violence. What genes are Post journalists missing that they are incapable of skeptical thought regarding psychiatry? What will it take to begin warning civilians about the dangers of psychiatric drugs? When will psychiatrists be indicted for the murders and suicides they cause?

[From article]
"The troubled man who threatened to jump from the Top of the Rock observation deck is a schizophrenic who had threatened to kill himself twice before -- once in an eerily similar attempt from atop Las Vegas' 1,149-foot Stratosphere Tower, sources said yesterday."
