Me, too.
But while most people associate my father with the Heimlich maneuver, few people are aware that for 25 years, he's been promoting a quack cure called "malariotherapy." Despite having no background in immunology, he's claimed that patients suffering from AIDS, cancer, and Lyme disease can be cured by deliberately infecting them with malaria.
Over the years, Cincinnati's Heimlich Institute has arranged a series of notorious human experiments on both Americans and foreign nationals in Mexico, Panama, China, and most recently in Africa, per recent published reports.
Experts have compared the "research" to Nazi concentration camp atrocities and to the Tuskegee syphilis experiments. Thorough documentation available on the CIRCARE bioethics website: http://www.circare.org/malariotherapy.htm
According to Radar's excellent article by Thomas Francis, the Heimlich Institute has been conducting "malariotherapy" experiments on sex workers in Ethiopia. The work was supervised by a car rental agent who lives in the San Francisco area.
So what does this have to do with The New Republic, Franklin Foer, senior editor Jason Zengerle and Zengerle's wife? (For you journalism watchers, The New Yorker is also in the mix.)

I'm the son of Dr. Henry Heimlich, known for the Heimlich maneuver. My wife and I are writing a book about my father's career.
To date, our original research - which uncovered a remarkable history of medical misconduct - has been the basis for numerous print and TV reports around the country including the NY Times, LA Times, Reuters, an excellent two-part feature in Radar, etc. Last year, Brian Ross did an ABC 20/20 report about our work.
I was in the middle of another case of serious journalism misconduct at TNR, one which somewhat parallels the Beauchamp mess: the publication of fabricated information, failure to fact-check, the "hidden spouse" of a TNR staffer, and more. In my case, it involved senior editor Jason Zengerle and his wife.
When the matter was brought to Franklin Foer, he refused to answer legitimate reportorial questions, made false statements, and then played ostrich.
The issues are documented on our website: http://medfraud.info/Ohio2nd.html
