Formula co gets free publicity from gruesome tragedy

I'm ticked that a formula company is rushing in to get publicity off this
situation. Most people won't see that, though, and will think "oh they're so
nice"   If the deceased mom was a breastfeeding type mom, the offer of free
formula would just make the tragedy hurt all the more, I think. Too bad we
couldn't offer breast milk.
(Marsha Walker can add this item to her accounting of PR tactics that
formula companies use)
