The media will say bacon is unhealthy, and California puts a sticker on almost everything to say it may cause cancer. Meanwhile they don't say a damn word about water fluoridation. The establishment, and media often miss the mark make something else out to be the boogie man while ignoring the real threat lurking in the shadows. In other words the media like to pretend like they're looking out for everyone's health by demonizing some rather benign chemical, and it also tricks people into thinking well the other chemicals in the product must be okay.

It's a shell game, and benzene might be the target for their fear driven marketing campaign, but that doesn't mean sunscreens are harmless, especially the aerosol ones which always seemed suspect to me. The aerosols ones contain the most benzene, and breathing in any amount of that chemical concoction should be avoided at all cost.
