Daily Caller: The “Dr. Phil” show denied claims made in an expose that the staff gave addicted guests drugs and booze before tapings of the show.
“The STAT article does not fairly or accurately describe the methods of ‘Dr. Phil,’ the TV show, or its mission to educate millions of viewers about drug and alcohol addiction,” a rep for the “Dr. Phil” show told Fox News in a statement Friday. “The show does not give drugs or alcohol to its guests and any suggestions to the contrary is errant nonsense.”
“For the past 16 years, the ‘Dr. Phil’ show has provided valuable information to viewers by telling compelling stories about people who are fighting the battle to overcome alcohol and drug addiction,” the statement added. “Unfortunately, addicts often lash out at the very people who are trying the hardest to help them break the cycle of addiction.”
“Although terribly unfortunate, this is an understandable part of the behavior of addicts on their journey to recovery,” the statement continued. more here
Charlatan….him and “dr”.oz …..anyone associated with oprah for that matter.
Who watches this crap?
Hollywood is an illusion.
Always has been…
You have to be drugged or drunk to watch this tripe.
…and now, to be a guest on the show.
They also give fat people donuts with extra icing
As far as I can tell, “Dr.” Phil is just Jerry Springer with a tonier audience. It’s all OPM (Other Peoples’ Misery) as entertainment, whose genesis was the Colosseum.
I won’t watch Dr’s Phil or Oz. Creepy people. Pretending they care about their victims, I mean guests.
