Not too long ago, locally, there was a huge full-page front-page newspaper story about Soy not being so healthy after all. It was constructed in such a way -- I wish I could remember the exact headline -- that it would give the person glancing at it casually the impression that there were possibly some serious reasons to avoid soy, that it might in fact be dangerous.

Upon reading the article, there was hardly any information whatsoever in it, except that possibly some claims about its health benefits had been exaggerated.

Somebody obviously had an ulterior motive for that one! It made me quite angry, too, because I couldn't imagine most people actually reading it to see how little it had to say, and I'm sure that was the intention.
