Does she realizes that she's minimizing a life threatening problem? If I was not correctly informed and read that article I would think "Its not that big of a deal that my kid is using oxy...they even have a "cure" for it". Are reporters held accountable for giving misinformation? So many people believe what they read thinking "well if its in the newspaper or on TV news, it must be true....". I am not a cynical person by nature, but I don't trust most media sources and will research the heck out of anything that interests me to get FACTS. This reporter is so irresponsible!
