[Air-l] overstated media inference from fine study

[Kathy Mancuso]

Indeed! I actually just reposted it on my Behavioral Science & Health
Education class discussion board as an example of applying the Theory
of Social Support, Networks, and Coping (which is just what it sounds
like: public health theory is not rocket science . . . although I
don't know why rocket science should be so epistemologically
privileged, come to think of it) within the ICTs in health
communication context.
