My (least) favorite part was also a Hannah Storm moment.  I believe
she was the one who actually said "scare tactics" first, right after
Amy Spangler described some of the ads.  Hannah segued to Dr.
Johnston with a sympathetic set-up, saying something to the effect
of, "Gee, that sounds like scare tactics.  Dr. Johnston, what does
the AAP think of these ads?"  With her furrowed brow and downturned
mouth, she clearly conveyed what 'side' she was on.

Unfortunately, it seems that "scare tactics" is the angle that is
getting the most play in the media -- that and "making moms feel
guilty."
