NAMI blasts CBS for television malpractice
Press release at the NAMI web site - "NAMI (National Alliance for the Mentally Ill) today charged CBS Television with gross irresponsibility and potential endangerment of the lives of children with mental illness as a result of its September 22 broadcast of the Dr. Phil Primetime Special: Family First. 'Not only did the show represent a breach of professional ethics, but also, in the opinion of many, malpractice,' declared NAMI executive director Michael J. Fitzpatrick, in a letter to CBS Chairman & CEO Leslie Moonves, co-signed by Suzanne Vogel-Scibilia, MD, a child psychiatrist who chairs the Child & Adolescent Policy Subcommittee of NAMI’s national board. In the September 22 program, parents essentially were blamed for 'what may very well be the severe mental illness of their child.' "
