PNAS Paper media blackout in UK???

"Jean Harrison" writes via COCURE@LISTSERV.NODAK.EDUI

"I've heard from quite a few British patients who noted that the major UK news outlets have not been reporting the findings of the PNAS paper. Apparently articles articles on scientific advances are vetted by the Science Media Centre, Science Advisory Panel: http://www.sciencemediacentre.org/pages/about/sap.htm . Perhaps there is a group above this centre to which appeals could be made?"

With Professor Simon Wessely, Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College, London, on there I am not surprised, tad audacious though!!!
