9. That makes me wonder how many fake MDs are employed by the GOP-controlled media.

There's "Dr." Phil, Sanjaya, "Dr." Laura and now "Dr." Nancy.

Isn't there a law against giving medical advice on the TV? Wouldn't this constitute giving out medical advice on the TV?

Dr. Nancy reruns will replace the Lockup marathons on the weekend. :eyes:

11. Her name is Nancy Synderman, from her wiki:

In 1999, Snyderman returned over $50,000 to DrKoop.com, a healthcare website based in Austin, Texas, after violating insider trading rules prohibiting corporate officers and directors from profiting from a stock sale within six months of buying shares. At the time, she was a director of DrKoop.com, founded by a former Surgeon General of the United States, C. Everett Koop. Her husband, an investment banker, bought 1,650 shares of DrKoop.com, during its initial public offering (IPO) for $9 a share, and sold it a month later at $41.27 a share.<3>

As I remember, she was a little too rough during the hernia test.
