Along the way, Post reporter Kari Lyderson describes wacko enviro outfit Southwest Research and Information Center with stupendous understatement as "a nonprofit public interest group that focuses on energy development and natural resources." The anecdotes are colorful. "Steers would turn yellow," one man told Lyderson. Another man blames ""recent health problems on uranium." Lyderson indicates without quite explicitly stating that the man's uranium work ended in 1982. Again, she offers no data, no medical records.
Lyderson and the Post certainly would claim no agenda. Do the math, review the structure of the story. Make up your own mind. The story ran March 28 on page A02.
