(NaturalNews) Four days ago, the Associated Press reported that coal-fired power plants are dumping enormous quantities of pollutants into U.S. waterways.

This original story by the AP [2] (dated January 18, 2014) was published, word-for-word, across the Denver Post [3], ABC News [4], the Washington Post [5], the San Jose Mercury News [6] and even Salon.com [7].
