  This has been floating around my FB newsfeed...Out of curiosity I tried to find the Time's article and couldn't find anything recent. 

  
  

  I did see her Twitter says this though:

  Stories circulating online, claiming that I said my son Evan may not have autism after all, are blatantly inaccurate and completely ridiculous. Evan was diagnosed with autism by the Autism Evaluation Clinic at the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Hospital and was confirmed by the State of California (through their Regional Center). The implication that I have changed my position, that my child was not initially diagnosed with autism (and instead may suffer from Landau-Kleffner Syndrome), is both irresponsible and inaccurate. These stories cite a "new" Time Magazine interview with me, which was actually published in 2010, that never contained any such statements by me. Continued misrepresentations, such as these, only serve to open wounds of the many families who are courageously dealing with this disorder. Please know that I am taking every legal measure necessary to set this straight.
  

  
  

  Not saying I agree or disagree with her. I personally would never let Jenny McCarthy influence any medical decisions...but it's annoying when fake stuff floats around the internet.

  I'm not starting a debate on Autism, I don't know much about it..but I do know a couple parents who said their child's symptoms showed up after one of their MMR shots. Of course it could be a coincidence..but even if she was wrong about his diagnosis, she did bring a huge amount of awareness to the topic.

  I don't think she brought the right sort of awareness to the topic. She helped spread a lot of false information.

  Whether she's right or wrong, I can't say... Because I'm not a doctor, or a scientist, or a geneticist. I do know that it's incredibly irresponsible to use your fame as a launching pad to villainize immunizations across the board.

  Whether her kid has autism or not, she is still an idiot who supported a quack Dr and was the face of a movement that caused a lot of deaths and illnesses. 
  
  She is a dick.

  I think the timing of shots and when the drastic symptoms start showing has been the explanation since the whole anti-vaccination movement started. Its certainly not a new idea.

  Yep it simply coincides with the age where children start to communicate and engage with their social environment. Then their difficulties in communication, interaction and imagination become apparent.
