Newsweek magazine says "blame the media" ...

for the Tourettes Symptoms at Le Roy High School!

Some 20 girls are sick. And according to Newsweek, it is "conversion disorder" caused by hype in the media.

Hey Newsweek, you're quite possibly making it worse!

Do the media HYPE violent crime? Yes they do.

Be afraid.

Very afraid.

What message does this send to the reader about what you should be afraid of?
