'''[http://www.quackwatch.org/ Quackwatch - ''Your Guide to Quackery, Health Fraud, and Intelligent Decisions''] (engl.)'''
"[http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quackwatch '''Quackwatch'''] is now an international network of people who are concerned about health-related frauds, myths, fads, fallacies, and misconduct. Its primary focus is on quackery-related information that is difficult or impossible to get elsewhere. Founded by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Barrett '''Dr. Stephen Barrett'''] in 1969 as the Lehigh Valley Committee Against Health Fraud (Allentown, Pennsylvania), it was incorporated in 1970. In 1997, it assumed its current name and began developing a worldwide network of volunteers and expert advisors.
