Twitter Now, if you’re here, we probably don’t have to tell you that astrology is total bullshit. We can’t even count all the ways in which it’s bullshit. Thanks to the wobble of Earth on its rotational axis, by the way, it’s not even “accurate” within its own parameters – all the star signs are a month out .

Although one might hope this is a joke, Dr Oz’s sketchy history suggests otherwise. As noted by several places – including This Week Tonight’s John Oliver – Dr Oz peddles alternative medicines and healthcare products with spurious and unfounded claims. Gizmodo reminded us that he was recently summoned before a Congressional hearing, where he had to explain under oath why he was endorsing and promoting products not backed by scientific evidence.
