THE CLOWNS OF THE ANTI-TOBACCO CARTEL
-- OR --
How I fix the information for YOU!
ASH MISINFORMS THE PUBLIC ONCE AGAIN
Good old ASH. They do not miss a chance to misinform the public.
Recently ASH published on its website a REUTERS article by the title:
Passive smoke ups heart risk.
Notwithstanding the title, servile as usual to the anti-smoking agenda, the article contains the following paragraph:
|
" However, the study does not definitively answer whether there is a link between passive smoke and heart disease, according to an editorial by Dr. John C. Bailar III, from the University of Chicago, Illinois.
The study 'suffers from problems inherent in the method, such as deficiencies in the data analyzed,' Bailar writes.
He therefore concludes that, 'we still do not know, with accuracy, how much or even whether exposure to environmental tobacco smoke increases the risk of coronary heart disease. "

This seems to be too much to take for the gang of ASH, which decides to publish the article CONVENIENTLY LEAVING OUT THIS CRUCIAL PARAGRAPH!
Tisk Tisk, Mr. Banzaff, afraid to tell the WHOLE STORY, just in case the truth comes out?
Maybe you should sue REUTERS and try and make them take out the parts you don’t like.

(Do not change it now, people of ASH: we have saved a copy already!)
NEJM Editorial by Bailar
As we always said: when the anti-tobacco cartel cannot support its lies with propoganda, it simply leaves out the truth!
