The problem is, you need to *get* the information before you can
disseminate it. NPR did a fine job of putting the list of cigarette
chemicals it uncovered onto the Web. But NPR deals with news in much
greater depth than the average station does. I seriously doubt that
most have much more than 250 words on any given topic.
