The doctors are back.
TRUTH BOMB #4 about Mehmet Oz - the theme: lawsuits.
Hooboy, legal tangles galore. Voters should know about them before they hit the button.
The media is asleep at the wheel on this, so we decided to start driving.
A thread.

Oz hyped a nonsense "fat buster", Green Coffee Bean Extract. Didn't work, had no evidence.
Didn't matter to Oz, he made bank.
Well - he had to settle a class action lawsuit & cough up 5M bucks. You don't pay 5M unless you have a crappy case.

It's so nice when families get along, yes?
Oz & his family are in a raging legal fight over dad's big $$$.
Oz cut off his sister's rental income from two NY apartments. He didn't refute it.
Stone cold move on sis; what will he do to us?

In this one, Oz beat the rap.
Bad medical advice hurts real people. In this case, a poor guy had severe burns to his feet following Oz's advice. Those facts are not contested.
Oz got off because "it's a TV show" and not "medical care". Nice.

Doctor gotta watch his mouth.
Without evidence, Oz said on TV that some olive oil brands in stores were "fakes" - this hurt sales and real people, and they said it was libel.

The fun bit in the olive oil dispute?
Oz had on an "expert" to support his claim, Maia Hirschbein. He knew, but never revealed, that she was EMPLOYED by the COMPETITOR of the brands he was attacking! Deceived his audience (same citation from #5).
That's pretty.... oily.

But here's the thing about narcissists like Oz (or Trump, his big fanboy).
They get tangled in legal disputes for petty stuff too, like fights with neighbors.
Oz planted trees that screwed up neighbor's view of NYC. Yup, legal battle ensued.

so, dear reader, here's the thing.
Lawsuits can happen, we get that. But ask yourself, how many lawsuits have YOU been in?
Have you had legal battles with neighbors AND family AND viewers AND businesses? Says something about the guy, right?
I mean, c'mon man!

Our physician team is ONLY presenting well-documented things in the news. None of this is hearsay; all of it is published.
If *we* can do this and we're just docs, *journalists* can do so much more. So c'mon guys, why is there SO MUCH on Oz that hasn't been explored?

journo wish list:
1. did Oz receive $ from the olive oil guys who sent him an undisclosed "expert"?
2. who else was hurt by Oz's TV bad medical advice?
3. did Oz receive $ from the coffee bean people? There must be documents, contracts somewhere to find, no?
Sheesh.
