Pseudoscience show 'Root Cause' masquerades as a documentary.
It is pretty sad that Netflix will run a show like Root Cause without a disclaimer stating that the viewpoints presented are from a tiny fringe group of doctors/dentists.
I'm all for other viewpoints, but the show attempts to give the impression this cadre knows a secret that the rest of the medical community ignores.
Ultimately people should be responsible for fact checking things themselves, but many people don't think this way or would take this on authority from a 'documentary'. It's possible that alarm bells ring for a few people when they mention meridians or state that you can't check these things on a cadaver.
Should Netflix have some responsibly to ensure shows that are supposed to be documentaries present the viewpoint with the majority of the evidence? Or at least at a disclaimer/message at the start of the show if they do not?
[Edit] changed 'represent both viewpoints?' to 'present the viewpoint with the majority of the evidence? '
