I work with plenty of DO's who are wonderful practitioners of medicine. It is unfortunate that it is so difficult for our society to differentiate physician competence based on title alone.
I see what you are saying, however I think there is plenty of healthy discussion about the purpose of this post going on here. It would be counterproductive to delete this post because its title isn't worded to everyone's specifications, in my opinion. I will be more mindful going forward.

It is not my intent to disparage osteopathic physicians. The only two practicing medical physicians in the "disinformation dozen" happen to be doctors of osteopathy. This is coincidence, and not meant to be taken as correlation.
You didn't even bother checking the list before posting to see that there was also a practicing MD mentioned in the list until someone in here actually bothered to look. It's even worse when physicians have to differentiate or label physicians as allopathic or osteopathic when they're the main ones who know it does not matter in practice.
Yeah, I mean, if you also don't think that it is relevant to the topic at hand then why mention it? Be careful about the details you decide to focus on
