Today Show expert says unfiltered coffee is bad

The Today Show had an expert today that said that the oils in coffee inhibit the metabolism of cholesterol. She said to use brewing methods with a filter to block these oils. Has anyone else heard this? Anyone know what study this could be from? Is this a general consensus of the scientific/health-care community or something obscure to add filler in a morning program? What am I supposed to tell my customers? I have had one asking me about this already. If you want to see the clip, go to their site and in the health page there is a link on the right that says "Small changes, big results."
