teresa,
I haven't yet visited the site and I understand that the site
administrator seems to be saying "enough already. I'm not going to
change anything else." So you could probably let it drop.
On the other hand, you could write again privately if you have her email
(that is, not posting publicly on the site) and thank her for making the
change(s) that she did, saying something very positive like "it is good
to know that you are responsive to your readership and care enough to
update the info, etc". You could mention that there is a whole wealth of
new bf info out there that you are aware of because you are in this
field specifically and that she may want to contact ilca, or the academy
of bf medicine, or iblce, naba, waba or LLL IN THE FUTURE FOR FUTURE
ARTICLES to get the most correct and absolutely up to date bf info. If
you have these orgs websites or ph. nos. you could send that along too.
I personally feel, if we push it TOO MUCH, in the face of a pretty good
article, then we are alienating them and they turn us off. Kinda like
our kids do when we lecture too long or too often, they tune us out.
However if a site had grossly incorrect or dangerous advice I would keep
at them as long as I could. Good luck and keep on mediawatching - it
does make a difference a little at a time.
