Thanks for sharing-- this is an awesome article. I've long been frustrated by the media's depiction of mental illness in general, and in bipolar in particular. For those who don't have time or inclination to read the whole article, here's a most salient quote: "Research also suggests most media portrayals of mental illness are stereotypical, negative or flat-out wrong – meaning many people gain an unfavorable or inaccurate view of those with psychological disorders simply by skimming a few sentences or picking up a remote control."
