Look back with love: RFK Jr. on the Daily Show...2005

Does this count as one of the earlier times in which a host allows so

much discourse on vaccine/thimerosal risks?

I don’t know if it was the first. I love the show,

but that is the only episode I saved. Rosie O’Donnel, and Imus seemed to

talk about it and they got fired. Tim Russert had a show and sadly is no

longer with us. It’s enough to make you paranoid.

I didn't know that Rosie O'Donnel did a bit on vaccine safety. I had

been under the impression that she'd copped out (the time when DK was

left in the waiting room and she told him they couldn't bring him

on).

I was surprised to find this because I remember a segment from The

Daily Show when made a joke about getting a flu shot. After

seeing this, I'm going to assume he thought that if the shot was

mercury free that he was fine. It takes everyone a while to figure

out that the aluminum and other ingredients aren't a day at the beach

either.
