Dr. OZ admits he's wrong

[brightstar]

Apparently this happened in May, but I'm just hearing about this now. Apparently Dr. Oz admitted his mistake for endorsing "miracle" weight loss supplements. I have to say, I'm shocked. I never though he actually would claim that he did. Is anyone else surprised by this?

I'm not surprised by it. It sounds like he's just doing what he can to save his reputation. Personally, I feel like no matter what he endorses at this point can't be trusted. It's great that he admitted his mistake, and all, and I know he's only human and humans make mistakes and blah blah blah, but he's essentially proven that he's a television celebrity first and a doctor second.

Honestly, I think it's good that he did admit his mistake. I hope he's learned from this experience.

I have to say that I like Dr. Oz and I think he just made a mistake. I know a lot of people won't agree with me, but the man is only human and I don't think he made any of the claims he did with ill intent. I think it was good that he apologized and I think he's still a good doctor. The fact that he admitted his mistake makes him a pretty decent person in my books.

I agree with Anne. I think we can all make mistakes. I think Dr. Oz is a human first before he's a doctor or a celebrity and humans make mistakes. I still like him and I find that a lot of the advice he gives makes a lot of sense. People need to really move on and let this go, now.

Ugh. I'm so tired of hearing about Dr. Oz. I really think it's time we moved on.
