I was quite pleased with this article on breast cancer.  It's true that
the suggestions on how to avoid breast cancer included an "if possible"
after breastfeeding.  Something to work on there.  But included in the
main article was this paragraph:

"Those aren't all the leads researchers are tracking down.  For example,
breastfeeding may cut the risk of premenopausal breast cancer, especially
in women who breastfeed for at least four to 12 months."

Considering all the articles on breast cancer I've seen lately that
didn't even mention breastfeeding, I thought they did very well.
