The CDC gets called out on it's April news release as, "A Promising Candidate for Most Dangerously Dishonest Public Health News Release of the Year", at HealthNewsReview.
The article somewhat disputes the "A Promising Candidate for Most Dangerously Dishonest Public Health News Release of the Year" article, but all in all, it could be helpful for confused journalists.

I agree. But if the journalists aren't helped by the article, I hope they pick up the sound bite quote the way they did the "E-cigarettes found to contain deadly formaldehyde".

CDC says hookah use as doubled.
i have been saying that for quite some time.
google"party hookah e-cigarette" in google images.
what you will find is a ton of stuff similar to this.
Wholesale 2015 party dress Disposable electronic cigarettes e e hookah shisha hookah 500 puffs e time e hookah cigar eShisha dispsoable e cigarettes, Free shipping, $1.63/Piece | DHgate Mobile

a brightly colored and decorated disposable cigalike,generally fruit flavored
with zero nicotine.
these are all the rage and a must have party favor at any teenage drinking
party. hence the term party hookah.this is what the increase is all about.
they are nothing more than a party favor to the chillin'. they are not
intending to vape and or smoke regularly.
this is how they distort the data to make it appear its something
that it is not.
the teens are not using e-cigs to quit smoking necessarily.
they are quitting smoking but still partying.
:2c:
