How accurate are magazine nutrition articles?

The American Council on Science and Health (ACSH) has issued a report on the accuracy of nutrition articles from 21 popular magazines from 2004-2005. The report describes the evaluation criteria and then gives a summary for each magazine they reviewed. Top of the list was Consumer Reports (90% accuracy) and at the bottom was Men's Fitness (67%). This useful resource can be found at: http://www.acsh.org/docLib/20070227_Nutrition.pdf.

On another note, I wonder when they will start evaluating blogs...
