Those were not his points. The Zoloft/SJW trial is by far not the first trial to suggest that antidepressants often perform worse than placebo.

He suggested that the trial might be biased based on some of the investigators vested interests drug compaines.

He claimed that the results are essentially meaningless without a placebo control.

He also suggested that rates of spontanious remission should be considered by anyone trying to guage the degree to which an antidepressant influcences recovery.

Those are valid considerations.

I don't like Breggin much, but I do have respect for Dr. Kramer. He discusses some of the highlights from a growing body of information about the currently used antidepressants.
