Saving Face - Episode 2 In this episode we dive into medical fake news - those scary articles you see that warn of cancer or other horrible things - like bananas being tainted with HIV infected blood (fake news BTW), or in the article we review - getting cancer from hair dye. We also discuss ways to respond to articles - including a Snopes article "mic drop" response. We've both done it. Does it work? Is it rude? Do people (Elizabeth) like it when it happens to them? Tune in and find out!
