I'm in two minds whether the breast cancer / abortion thing is politcal. It sort of is, but it didn't make sense the way it was put in there so I removed it. It could go under the "examples" but I think that's getting long and we might be stretching the definition of the article in some of them. ArmondikoVtheist 06:23, 24 October 2008 (EDT)

The examples need a rewrite anyway; the grammar needs cleaning up, and we could probably tighten the definition while we're at it. Not me, though, I'm off to bed. Wazza (Not Wazzock, Wazza)Approach the Presence 11:43, 24 October 2008 (EDT)

We could do with a similar article on the commercialisation of science - the way science is bent to the defence of business interests, rather than stating the truth. Tobacco company shenanigans are a good example. 85.234.65.51 (talk) 12:30, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
