On 18 November 2004, UK Channel 4's "Dispatches" series broadcast Deer's television documentary: "MMR: What they didn't tell you". Television critic Nancy Banks-Smith wrote in "The Guardian": "After a year of rebuffs, Deer ran Dr Wakefield to ground at an Indianapolis conference on autism. The camera took a bit of a buffet and Dr Wakefield left with Deer following, shouting: 'We have very important questions to ask you about your research and your commercial ambitions, sir! Will you stand your ground and answer?' If this was hounding, and it was, Dr Wakefield had only himself to blame for running away".
