Avandia and the blogs

David Carr is not impressed:

As it turns out, the Web’s penchant for polarized discourse is not just something that flares up over the war in Iraq or presidential elections. And because the Avandia controversy manages to unite three sectors not held in the highest public esteem “” Big Pharma, Big Media and Big Government (the lawyers will be along any minute) “” it has led to a lot of hyperbole online. And as Michael Moore is about to demonstrate with his new movie, “Sicko,” people are often willing to believe the worst about the health care industry and they are rarely disappointed.
