Here's a summary of last weeks media coverage of interest to the low
carb community.

Charge and Countercharge
A vegetarian doctor's group attacked the Atkins diet. They blamed the
death of a teenager on the amount of meat she was eating. Atkins
Nutritionals responded by accusing the doctors of "shameless
exploitation" of the death to further their own vegan politics. Rush
Limbaugh defended Atkins.

Bread Maker's Summit
Bread manufacturers met in Providence to fight the perception that
bread is bad. 40 percent of Americans have cut their bread
consumption. Looks like the bakers have chosen to promote the "food
pyramid."

pie and cranberry sauce with Splenda. Several articles gave tips on
how to deal with a low carb Thanksgiving dinner.
