Jules Crittenden points out that, according to Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders), the Lancet has botched yet another study, this time about “maternal and child undernutrition.”

DWB’s conclusion, as paraphrased by Jules: “dangerously flawed in its methodology and conclusions.” 

Lancet… hmm… Lan…cet… where do I remember that name from? 

O yeah. I remember.

    I think the Critter is barking at the "moonbats". There was no Lancet study to attack on methodology in this case. Conflating the "Lancet study/survey" with a series of papers at a conference has nothing to do with study methods. Critter is wrong on this one and is using exaggerations to attack the 2006 study.

    Why is Critter wrong on this one?

    His post was almost entirely quoted from ‘Medecins Sans Frontieres’. At the end, Critter acknowledges that he knows ‘zip’ about this and is without personal opinion on it.

    I think you are using misinformation to back up your opinion that the 2006 study was attacked unjustly.
