Drugs and the media

This article from alternet by Martha Rosenberg Is about how big pharma pushes drugs direct to consumers and enables self diagnosis and medication.
What's most critical is the use of tv, the Internet , and the illusion of giving people real information they can use.
This idea is true throughout many industries , information is what its all about. Problem is being able to understand the info and use it.
That would require in the case of drugs at minimum a a degree in bioscience,which we all have Right?
