Two things about that comment. First off, the article is not meant to be a scientific article. Refutes to the vaccine thing have been done properly time and time again, so why shouldn't we be able to simply refer to those at that point? I don't have to reresearch gravity to know it's existance is fact. What a celebrity endorsement usually does is call attention to a side of an issue. Celebrities have influence. I'm glad she spoke out.

"Right. It's all about the hair and movies .Being a celebrity make you so trustworthy. Anyboby heard of hard science/ facts/Statistics ? Just because i refer to the CDC in an argument i don't win that argument. Our Federal Government is often referenced in discussion as if .... so what ?" Two things about that comment.
