										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Catalyst, a very conservative ABC science program,<a href="http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/stories/3876219.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> ran a great episode on Saturated Fat and Cholesterol on 24th October</a>. (Similar material to my post <a title="Saturated fat is good for you" href="http://wayneconnor.com/saturated-fat.html">here</a>.) How dare Catalyst criticise our long held views on Saturated Fat. Check out the response!</p>
<p><span id="more-1262"></span></p>
<p>&#8211; <a href="http://www.theaustralian.com.au/media/broadcast/catalyst-complaint-tally-grows/story-fna045gd-1226760173852#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Australian</a> newspaper reports public outcry over the episode. &#8220;<em>ABC Health expert Norman Swan suggested Catalyst had been conned by people with a clear bias on the issue and warned &#8220;people will die&#8221; if they believed the program instead of their doctor.</em>&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8211; The AMA and Heart Foundation have <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-11-02/heart-foundation-shocked-at-abc-decision-to-run-catalyst-report/5065298" target="_blank" rel="noopener">condemned the ABC</a>.</p>
<p>&#8211; <a href="http://www.smh.com.au/national/health/catalyst-patients-stop-taking-cholesterol-drugs-says-survey-20131113-2xfxy.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Drug companies have been surveying doctors</a> since the episode to see if people are stopping their cholesterol medication.</p>
<p>&#8211; <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/transcripts/s3888657.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Media Watch</a> has condemned the reporting as unscientific. (There is now a great debate on the Media Watch sight about their reporting being as bad as Catalyst.)</p>
<p>People are calling for an apology and resignations from the ABC. I hope the ABC stick to their guns.</p>
<p>If we can&#8217;t debate saturated fat without extreme responses and emotive replies, what can we debate?</p>
