Is the subject of this story going to kill you or cure you?
By Gary Schwitzer on February 26, 2010 9:20 AM

There's now a website that actually tracks The Daily Mail of London to categorize its stories as either "kill or cure" stories. The site quotes British physician-author Ben Goldacre: "The Daily Mail, as you know, is engaged in a philosophical project of mythic proportions: for many years now it has diligently been sifting through all the inanimate objects in the world, soberly dividing them into the ones which either cause - or cure - cancer."

Visitors to the site can vote on the stories.
