  • Playing with Safety: Dangerous Toys and the Role of America's Civil
    Playing with Safety: Dangerous Toys and the Role of America’s Civil Justice System December 2010 Playing with Safety: Dangerous Toys and the Role of America’s Civil Justice System 1 Table of Contents Introduction 3 Danger in Familiar Places 4 Lead 6 Toxic Substances 8 Magnets 10 Conclusion 13 Appendix: Resources for Consumers 14 Endnotes 15 Playing with Safety: Dangerous Toys and the Role of America’s Civil Justice System 2 Introduction Today’s toys are not your parents’ toys. Toys have grown in sophistication and technological advancement, but so have their dangers. In 1970, the most popular toy on the market was the then brand new Nerf Ball. Forty years later, the Nerf is still popular but has morphed into a “Blaster” – armed with a fl ip-up sight, red dot light beam, and shoulder stock with an extra ammo clip – and had to be recalled after the gun’s mechanism injured more than 45 children.1 While most parents have always had the common sense to watch for small objects that might choke a child or sharp pieces that might cause harm, today’s toys feature unseen hazards. Now, the danger comes from lead, cadmium, asbestos, and other carcinogens undetectable to the eye, or small, innocent-looking magnets that can rip a child apart from the inside. Since 1974, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has issued more than 850 recalls for toy products. In 2007, 45 million toys had to be recalled.2 Between 2004 and 2008, toy-related injuries increased 12 percent, and over the last 10 years, toy-related injuries have increased 54 percent.3 This increase in the number of injuries to children every year has coincided with a marked increase in imported toys.

  • Charles Forelle, James Bandler and Mark Maremont of the Wall Street Journal Win Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting
    CONTACT: Molly Lanzarotta March 5, 2013 Harvard Kennedy School Communications 617-495-1144 Patricia Callahan, Sam Roe and Michael Hawthorne of the Chicago Tribune Win Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting CAMBRIDGE, MASS – The $25,000 Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting has been awarded to Patricia Callahan, Sam Roe and Michael Hawthorne of the Chicago Tribune by the Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy for their investigative report “Playing with Fire." The Shorenstein Center is part of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. The Chicago Tribune’s investigative series revealed how a deceptive campaign by the chemical and tobacco industries brought toxic flame retardants into people’s homes and bodies, despite the fact that the dangerous chemicals don’t work as promised. As a result of the investigation, the U.S. Senate revived toxic chemical reform legislation and California moved to revamp the rules responsible for the presence of dangerous chemicals in furniture sold nationwide. “The judges this year were especially struck by the initiative shown in recognizing a very important policy issue embedded in something as familiar and unthreatening as a sofa,” said Alex S. Jones, Director of the Shorenstein Center. “It goes to prove the importance of not just looking, but seeing and acting.” Launched in 1991, the Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting honors journalism which promotes more effective and ethical conduct of government, the making of public policy, or the practice of politics by disclosing excessive secrecy, impropriety and mismanagement. The five finalists for the Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting were: Alan Judd, Heather Vogell, John Perry, M.B.
