text: But the state refused to hand them over when requested by a director at University of California at Berkeley’s School of Public Health.
  Moskowitz, the UC Berkeley School of Public Health’s director at the Center for Family and Community Health, told to KPIX 5 why he sued, saying, “I would like this document to see the light of day because it will inform the public that there is concern within the California Department of Public Health that cell phone radiation is a risk and it will provide them with some information about how to reduce those risks.”
  And when asked why he thinks the state is trying to suppress this document, he said, “They claim that this would lead to chaos and confusion among the public, I suspect that they were afraid of the reaction from the telecommunications industry should they publish this document. In fact, they even argued that in their brief.”
  And in a tentative ruling Friday, a judge found the documents are, in fact, public record and the public should have a right to see it.
  The judge stated that there is significant public interest in DPH’s investigation into risks associated with cellular phone use and advising the public as to those risks.
  Moskowitz cites new research that finds a significant relationship between cell phone use of 10 or more years and increased brain tumor risk.
  The Department of Public Health would not comment on the ruling or if it intends to release the documents.
  The FCC says there is no evidence of a “definite link between wireless devices and cancer or other illnesses.”
