Legal News Watch Launches Asbestos Today

SAN DIEGO, CA – November 3, 2003 – Legal News Watch today announced the debut of Asbestos Today (http://www.asbestostoday.com), a single, central location where consumers can easily find asbestos and mesothelioma information and news. The new property combines public domain information with original content from Legal News Watch, offering the single most authoritative source for in-depth coverage of asbestos and mesothelioma.

"We created Asbestos Today to raise public awareness of the risks associated with asbestos exposure and asbestos-related diseases including mesothelioma,' said Merrick E. Lozano, publisher of Legal News Watch. "The new site will increase Legal News Watch's already strong online presence and expand advertiser reach.'

Asbestos is said to be one of the main industrial causes of cancer in the world. Exposure to asbestos increases the risk of Mesothelioma, a rare cancer of the thin membranes lining the abdominal cavity and surrounding internal organs, and other asbestos-related diseases. Symptoms of mesothelioma may not appear until 30 to 50 years after exposure to asbestos.

The initial launch of Asbestos Today includes eight major sections:

· Asbestos Facts
· Asbestos Exposure and Risks
· How Can Families Reduce the Risk of Exposure to Asbestos?
· How Can Asbestos Affect My Health?
· What is Mesothelioma?
· Asbestos Medical Testing
· Asbestos Related Diseases
· Asbestos & Mesothelioma News
