Here's Ben Goldacre in a 20-minute TED video talking about his favorite topic, Bad Science. He addresses the journal-to-journalism cycle, the flaws of authority, the placebo effect, industry-sponsored trials, publication bias, correlation/causation, ethics, and more. The overall message is the importance of publishing all data--both for and against a drug, therapy, or intervention.
