On Thursday
night a Durham, North
Carolina ABC news
affiliate, WTVD-11,
aired a powerful and
honest investigative
news story on water
fluoridation that
correctly questioned
the safety of the
unnecessary chemical
additive. Reporter Steve Daniels covered the
story of local
resident Corey Sturmer
who has dental
fluorosis and is now
leading a campaign to
remove fluoride from
the Durham water
supply. The report
features interviews
with Sturmer, local
dentists, and Dr.
Kathleen Thiessen (a
member of the
committee on Fluoride
in Drinking Water for
the National Research
Council).
Mr. Sturmer
has already taken his
fluoride education
campaign to the
streets, placing
flyers around town and
creating an
informative website
for his group, Durham
Against Fluoride. He has also
testified before the
Durham County
Board of Health, which has
stated that they will
now look into his
concerns regarding
fluoridation.
Please take a
few minutes to watch
and share this
important news
story. Share it with
friends, family,
colleagues, and
especially local
decision-makers (city
councilors and state
legislators). Also, if
you live near Durham,
NC please contact
Durham Against
Fluoride and join the
campaign to end
fluoridation while the
momentum and media
attention is
building.
Please also
take a moment to visit
reporter Steve
Daniels’ Facebook page to thank him
for his great
reporting, as he
requested viewers to
do at the end of the
report. If he see’s
that there is a large
amount of interest in
his story, the
likelihood of
follow-up stories will
be greater.
Sincerely,
Stuart Cooper
Campaign
Manager
Fluoride Action
Network
