Don’t get me wrong, I like the “Save the Tatas” campaign as much as anyone, and the pink newspaper today is cute.

Both are the product of an exceptional PR campaign — and misleading.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women; cancer (of all types) is second by several percentage points.

Do your readers a real service and put breast cancer into the proper perspective by educating on other factors, too.
