Response to the "Arizona dental board fails to protect public, hold dentists accountable" article published by ASU Cronkite School of Journalism
Arizona dentists, you might be aware of an article that was recently published by a handful of students at ASU's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism. The article was picked up by a few local publications. Leadership at the Arizona Dental Association (AzDA) and the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) felt the article was inaccurate, unfair, and biased. As a result, ASU Lead Editor Mr. Kenneth Foskett received a candid, stern email from AzDA Executive Director Dr. Regina Cobb—expressing the Association's disapproval of the student reporters' lack of transparency and professionalism. Within minutes of receiving this communication, Mr. Foster reached out to Dr. Cobb via phone. Because negative articles like this affect all dentists practicing in Arizona, both AzDA and BODEX felt it appropriate to respond to the mischaracterizations that were written in the ASU students' piece. Their response was done through a podcast featuring BODEX Executive Director Ryan Edmonson, and the Chair of the BODEX Investigative Committee Dr. Anthony Caputo.
