More fuel for the Anti's

E-cigarettes contain 10 times amount of carcinogens: Japan research

Since there is really no such thing as news reporting any more I try to get my propaganda from various sources, one of which is MSN. This article was on the front page this morning.
The article starts off with a statement that is blatantly anti-vaping and then works very hard to support that statement without offering any details or links to the actual research. I haven't followed up on it yet, but I will. My concern is that millions of people will read this and simply believe what they're being told.

Just thought I'd pass it along in case it's 'news' to anyone here.

We had that same story in the Swedish newspapers, just after we started having one or two more neutral reports. Sigh...

Unfortunately most people believe what they are told by the media, the powers that be know this, that's one reason why we have advertising, cause you need to buy what ever it is that they are selling/reporting etc.

There's also a thread on it in the Media and General News sub-forum, together with this link to Dr Farsalinos' response. I wonder if any of the media will take that up ......... ?

So, another "bought" health department. Isn't it amazing what all kinds of people......even in "high" places..... will do for money.
