Dr. Keith Ablow, a practicing psychiatrist known as much for his media persona on the Fox News channel and elsewhere as his two New York Times bestsellers, wrote what I thought was a pretty savage, fear-mongering diatribe recently against parents letting their children watch any episode of "Dancing with the Stars" that features a person who has undergone transgender surgery, Chaz Bono.

His logic is a thing of beauty to behold in its twisted triumph: Because some children who may be watching may be undergoing their own self-identity and sexual transformation (as most teenagers do at some point in their normal development), they are "vulnerable:" "The last thing vulnerable children and adolescents need, as they wrestle with the normal process of establishing their identities [... is to watch an adult who's made the choice to change their gender]."

Totally agree about his twisted logic, fits right in with the appalling entity that is Fox and the mindset of the horrible Rupert Murdoch.

Here in the UK we remain in hope that the US will finish Murdoch for once and for all with prosecution for the alleged phone hacking and corruption offences he's committed. Here it went all the way to the very top in our government so I hold little hope of a positive resolution.

What is it with psychiatrists sometimes, first we got Radovan Karadzic and now we get Keith Ablow. Fascists to the bone both of them.
