Michael Douglas: I Got Throat Cancer From Cunnilingus

Cancer-free Michael Douglas, to the Guardian: “Without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papilloma virus] which actually comes about from cunnilingus.” Excuse me? Well, he could be right. And he could be very wrong. Either way, the interviewer, in a spell of gross journalistic negligence, failed to follow-up and ask: With whom?! Douglas is a married man, meaning he either just revealed something potentially embarrassing about his wife, or revealed something about himself that his wife probably isn’t overly happy about. Either way, this probably isn’t what she needs right now. [The Guardian]
