Unproven Fact: Jenny McCarthy Causes Measles (or worse)

I got suckered in to seeing what autism.change.org had to say, from this email:

Change.org Launches 7 New Blogs; Predictions for 2009
We're pleased to announce that today we’re launching seven new blogs to expand our network to 19 blogs covering the most important issues facing our world. Yes ma'am, that's a lot of blogs.

The new sites include Autism, Education, Global Health, Health Care, Human Trafficking, Poverty in America, and Sustainable Food. We've hired an amazing team of experts/activists to lead each community, selected from more than 1500 applicants. We hope you'll stop by, check out their take on the issues they’ll be covering, and welcome them to the Change.org community. (As always, you can find the full list of our blogs on our Causes page.)

I'm not saying that Jenny McCarthy is behind some sort of internet witch hunt technology, but just look at what she did:
