When someone showed me the article on breast-feeding which Daphne Caruana Galizia wrote, (TMID, 7 September) I could not believe what I was reading. That a regular columnist in your paper could disregard scientific evidence in the way shown by what she wrote in her article is stupefying.

I shall not waste my time with writing counter arguments but I think the message in the poster (see photo) sums up what democracy and human rights are all about in regard to the narrow view on the topic taken by the writer.
