This morning when I listened to the VapeTeam podcast that article had lots of comments debunking every lie. Now the comments are not there, and none can be posted!
All the comments are still there, and still open for posting & "liking" (they use the Facebook system). If you have Adblock or Ghostery, or similar, it may be blocking the FB module, which would be why you can't see it. I always have to turn those off long enough to read and/or post on most of those news sites' comments areas.
I tried to watch Fox news just the other night. Within the first 13 minutes of the 10pm news I was shown 6 violent murders. It left me pondering why exactly people think violent video games are the source of all these violent ideas out there. Every time I turn on the news, it's more violence. To put it simply, violence sells and increases their ratings.
Perhaps if I can get the emails you suggest, it will time well with the April proposed rulemaking.
Thanks,
Is there a reason CASAA could not put in its" own FOIA request?I sent an email to Sherri Ly and invited her to do some investigative reporting. I gave her the links to the FDA's press conference where the "carcinogens" myth originated, a link to the lab report written by Westenberger, as well as a link to Dr. Laugesen's 2008 report in which he found that the quantity of TSNAs in liquid is about equivalent to the TSNAs in a nicotine patch. and I suggested some some pointed questions she should ask Westenberger.
I also suggested that she put in a FOIA request for emails covering March through July of 2009 among Westenberger and other FDA folks such as Sharfstein, DeLancy, and Hamberg. I'm willing to bet that there might have been some conversations about doing a spin job on Westenberger's findings.
The reporter responded:
I'm not holding my breath, but I am keeping my fingers crossed that finally one reporter will ask the right questions to pin down the facts and expose the liars.

Well said !!!This is not a typical FOX news story on e-cigarettes. Over the past 3 years the vast majority of fair and balanced e-cigarette stories have been from FOX and its local affiliates. I still can remember the very first time I saw a news anchor actually question the scare mongering (rolled her eyes and said something about it should be compared to smoking) and it was a FOX network reporter. Conservative FOX personalities (Varney, Stossel, Ablow) have been early supporters while more liberal personalities (Imus, Stern) have simply repeated ANTZ lies about e-cigarettes or made their own negative stuff up.
