From the supplier: A spate of cancer among the St Louis Post-Dispatch employees has people concerned about the health environment of the newsroom. The theories about electromagnetic fields being responsible for cancer have not been proven. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health conducted a study of the medical history of the affected employees and analysed the electromagnetic fields of the newsroom but was not able to see any connections. Other newspapers, such as the San Jose Mercury News, have also had to tackle the issue to reassure employees.
