In the book, "National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society: Criminal Indifference to Cancer Prevention and Conflicts of Interest," Epstein argues that the NCI and ACS have spent tens of billions of taxpayer and charity dollars focusing on treatment to the exclusion of prevention, which has allowed cancer rates to skyrocket, with the disease now affecting nearly one in two men and more than one in three women.

It IS big news, said I, with stitches still in his wrist from the most recent bout with an aspect of the disease.
...And something else, I strongly advise anyone that is giving money to some outfit that wants donations for "cancer research" to investigate on line that org. An outfit that my wife canvassed the neighborhood for as she was "recovering" started to work on me after she died. I checked the internet. The top official in the US, a woman, had a salary of a quarter of a million bucks. The top official of the outfit in U.K. made even more!
The percentage that the outfit passed on to research from their net was only 18%. Some of those outfits spend less on research and some a bit more. And who knows exactly where that "research" money goes.

Natural news are not necessarily lying but a story such as this is advantageous to an organisation that sells and promotes 'natural cures'.
Personally whenever i see a natural news story I go straight to the source they have based their piece in order to get the unbiased story. They may be called naturalnews but they are not really in any terms a news agency.
