Blatantly biased?

From Mr A. Matalia, MRPharmS

Yet again pharmacists have been subject to biased articles in The Pharmaceutical Journal. We read three articles from people objecting to the Office of Fair Trading report and only one from a person supporting it (PJ, 1 February, pp156– 160). I find it disgraceful that the PJ is so blatantly biased. It did not even publish more letters from pharmacists who support the OFT report.

Amit Matalia
Coventry, West Midlands

Two of the articles (one pro, one anti) that Mr Matalia refers to were commissioned by us. The others were unsolicited. We published all the letters we had received on the OFT report by the time last week’s issue went to press, except two. One of these was subsequently withdrawn by the writer and we are currently seeking a response from the Royal Pharmaceutical Society on a point raised in the other letter, which was from Mr Matalia.
