This is a copy of the email I sent to www.4woman.gov concerning its link to
the Ad council and the Ad council's link (and similar information) to WebMD.

"Thank you for running this campaign.
On the web page to which you are linked:
http://www.adcouncil.org/issues/breastfeeding/, there is a link to WebMD
University which is sponsored by Mead-Johnson. Much of the information from
the WebMD University pages on breastfeeding is copied or rephrased on the
Ad Council site. There are many better web sites for breastfeeding
information that are not sponsored by formula companies. Considering the
interference of formula companies in this campaign, I wonder why you and
the Ad Council have this link.
The blurb about the LLLI web site: "Share notes with other breastfeeding
mothers and find out how companies can be supportive of breastfeeding at
the La Leche League website." really does not begin to describe the
information available there."
