Winnie, is there a press Council, or similar body, in your country that you 
can take a complaint about this complete misrepresentation? Perhaps other 
Lactnetters know where complaints about this sort of reporting should be 
sent? It's bad enough when a headline implies that breastfeeding is an 
intervention, but when it tells blatant lies, there must be somewhere to 
take a complaint. Perhaps US-based Lactnetters could contact the publisher, 
and do so again if something like is done again. If enough complaints are 
received, they are more likely to listen.
