I really wish the NYT would stop attaching words like "lethal" and "toxic" to activities which slightly increase one's risk of illness or injury.

(This is the second such article I've seen in the past few days: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/17/magazine/mag-17Sugar-t.htm... )

It has been reading a bit sensationalist. The brain cancer stuff too.

They are doing a nice job of though hyperlinking evidence to back up the claims. Where else can I find similar work? Can I trust them more or less?
