Columbia-affiliated hospital only 4,000 echocardiograms behind
It may be summer, but hey, our Google alerts are still turned on.
• The Harlem Hospital Center, whose doctors are supervised by the Columbia Medical School, is hurrying to review almost 4,000 unread echocardiograms, which is more than a year-and-a-half’s worth. The hospital’s clinical director has been fired for the screwup, but, uh, yikes.
• Fun fact: The Columbia board of trustees spent over $100,000 to lobby Washington last year. NYU spent over $500,000.
• Bill O’Reilly, a big fan of Columbia University, told TC professor Marc Lamont Hill that he looked like a cocaine dealer. We’d say that’s pretty gross and racist, but maybe we’ve been indoctrinated by liberalism or something.
• Newsweek’s new site has a thingie on the side called “The Spectrum.” Hey, that’s our name!
no way was a great name like spectrum gna go uncopied
it is a good name
I wonder if the people at Newsweek know what a spectrum is. I’m actually hoping that they don’t. Because if they do, they’re spectrum ranges from ranting and demanding to angry and melancholy. Which is just kind of sad.
Although they also include fair. But still. If fair is on the far positive end of the spectrum, things are pretty bleak.
the fact that they’re copying a college newspaper is flattering, i guess. good ideas get copied, etc. paging brian corman.
That’s clearly a biased representation of what Bill O’Reilly said… he was making a different point about cocaine dealers and some that he’s kinda looked like one and the guy retorted and bill joked about himself…didn’t seem so bad to me, spec
Hey look! AOL has a “SPECTRUM” now too! (midway down, just below featured stories)
