I got my July AJN 2 weeks ago. The ad inside the back cover was about the dangers of psychiatric drugs. It struck me as a bit alarmist (all drugs are trial-and error), then I noticed that it was sponsored by the Citizen's Commission on Human Rights. I remember them from Boston; they liked to distribute leaflets about the dangers of psychiatry. I checked them out online, and found out that they are part of the Church of Scientology!
Why is "one of the most influential health-care journals in medicine" (AJN Editorial, July 2009) publishing ads for the Church of Scientology? Was someone not paying attention? Has the journal been infiltrated? It's extremely embarrassing, and makes me wonder about their ad policy.
