Keep in mind that the original expression was "dose of salts" as in
laxative. Therefore all advice and "news" from journalists should be taken
with a dose of salts, for the advisor/reporter may be full of it and trying
to pass some along to you.
Lex (former journalist, sometimes still full of it...)

Journalist has become a swear word in my dictionary, with some
honourable exceptions. All unconfirmed scribings taken with X-large pinch
of
salt.
