Barbara Hayes shared the eye dr's side of the story <<Subject: Pearle
vision& the other side of the story.
I wrote to Dr. Marcy Schultenover, the eye doctor at Pearle Vision who
was
reported to have refused to see a breastfeeding mother in her office.
She
called me this morning, upset that only one side of the story had been
reported. >>

This is exactly why I choose carefully what things I write letters about.
If it is printed in the media, respond factually and as nicely as
possible. Indignation, etc is fine, but not obscenity, name calling, etc.
If it's a story from a mom or someone else, be careful, IMHO.  Remember
there are 3 sides to every story:  your side, their side, and the truth.
