F as in Fat, K as in Knee-Jerk

On our last morning in Utah I picked up a copy of the Salt Lake City Tribne and was appalled (but not shocked, alas) to read an editorial based on the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation report mentioned a few days ago. Its concluding paragraph:

If you're "F" as in fat, you'll be "D" as in dead.


Talk about scare tactics. . . .

I haven't done a search, but I wonder how many other newspapers picked this up and ran with it.
