Dr. Oz Grilled by Senate Because He's Wacky

Dr. Oz of The Dr. Oz Show and Hearst’s Dr. Oz’s The Good Life fame is finally being forced to come clean about the medical advice he doles out to millions of people. To paraphrase Seinfeld, the prognosis is negative. A panel of senators grilled Oz on his many wacky claims that certain products can lead to weight loss, even though they definitely do not.

The panel, led by Claire McCaskill, repeatedly questioned Oz on why he would promote products that have zero science behind them.
