The ubiquitousness of promotion of artificial baby milks (ABMs) is a topic that Lactnetters will be well aware of.  Placement of advertising is one such matter.  This came to mind just now, when I checked to see what online publications had taken up a report of my research.  Two that I looked at had advertising with them that included an offer of a "Free Sample of a Unique Baby Formula", under the heading "Baby Feeding Problems", right above the journalists' reports about my research.  Once something is out in cyberspace, there isn't much one can do.  The link to the better of the articles is: http://www.aphroditewomenshealth.com/news/breastfeeding.shtml  The journalist has done some good backgrounding about the hazards of artificial feeding and discussed current manipulations of contents of ABMs.  (Pity about that ad, though.)
