Read a few articles this morning about the risks of testing in Breast Cancer which seem to have come from this paper:

http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2812%2961611-0/abstract

 

Very interesting; and portrayed in different ways by the BBC -http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-20121043

and the Daily Mail - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2225067/Needless-cancer-therapy-4-000-women-For-life-saved-breast-screening-3-patients-undergo-unnecessary-treatment.html

To be honest having just watched this on BBC news, there isn't much difference on the perspectives between the Daily Mail and them!

I meant in terms of their headline and reporting stance - especially  their language... But yep, the content is essentially the same!
