With more than 1,200 lawsuits pending and 11,000 more being evaluated by Montgomery's Beasley Allen Law Firm, attorney Jere Beasley told Johnson & Johnson to 'bring this thing to a close.'

The scientific community remains split over whether or not talcum powder used by women conclusively causes ovarian cancer, but juries continue to find Johnson & Johnson liable for not warning its consumers of possible risk.

For the second time in three months, a jury has found Johnson & Johnson liable for ovarian cancer potentially caused by genital use of the company’s talcum powder products. A St. Louis jury awarded ovarian cancer survivor Gloria Ristesund $55 million on May 2.

2. Perfectly fine link.

This story would have never made it to DU without going to my site first.

3. No it isn't... http://democratsforever.freeforums.net did not write the article.

DU has copyright rules in which proper citing of the source is required.

4. It is an aggregating source

no different than RawStory. The source at the link is clearly labeled. Furthermore, if the administrators at DU had an issue then they would have contacted me by now.

It isn't any different than linking to a local newspaper carrying copyrighted material from a major news service such as AP, UPI or Reuters.
