anti-vaping article (daily fail)

E-cigarettes are just as addictive as the real thing and most are mislabeled, researchers warn

It starts with saying e-cigs contain 'the most addictive form of nicotine', lol, and seems to be twisting the recent 5 pawns news, about nicotine levels not as stated, into a general statement. I could go on, but throughout it's just a ridiculous article. Topped off by no comments allowed. How great it would be if the mini hitlers weren't running the media show to some degree.

Yawn (aimed at them and not you!). They even managed to get the argument about the kiddies in.

The Daily Fail twist or misrepresent just about every item of news they report upon - if it's about ecigs so much the better.

Bad news based on zero research or accuracy is their specialty it seems to me.

Ooh. I've been freebasing Nicotine. I'm scared.

Never mind, I've freebased myself down from 24mg to 6mg.

I had a list of info on the certain Dr. Neal L. Benowitz, MD - but when I read that his internship was spent giving enemas I thought that was just about right and deleted the rest.

Write to him at: UCSF School of Medicine, San Francisco Gen Hosp, 1001 Potrero Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA. Phone: [phone] - ask for MEDICINE ROOM 5H-22

Researchers found that almost none of the 153 people -- who had not been interested in quitting in the first place -- had reduced or quit their smoking.

I could have predicted that without the expense of the study

I wonder how many almost none is ! 1,2 10 ?

Anyone else notice that Dr. Neal L. Benowitz, MD gets his research funding from a large pharmacutical company that manufactures NRT (errr including INHALERS)?

Yh, kinda got it in for him today!!  More info on him later

Obviously we only have anecdotal evidence, but the amount of people who have tried vaping without really intending to quit smoking or expecting to be able to and found themselves non-smokers makes for a lovely comparison.

Without really intending to or not expecting to is very different from not interested IMO

lol, yes, so easy to see through the cak the media and supposed scientific bods spout. The rapid increase in the number of people who vape, and all the success stories, mean everyone knows a number of people who vape/used to smoke. Those facts are undeniable, and these bods know it. The daily fail like to stir the pot about anything, just to try to work readers up, for sure.

They would say the moon is made of cheese to sell a few more chip wrappers.

Worse than the gutter press. At least cheap stories about celebrity underwear or crowd-funded waxing for rugby players isn't hurting anybody.

(waxing doesn't hurt... does it?)

As badly written, confused and subjective ans scaremongering as the lies and hatred this pathetic rag peddles about immigration and just about every other subject they write about. Reading the DM rots the mind.
