I went to the website referenced by DC and clicked on "H" the first item to better understand their concern in context.

Here is what I found:

Quote:
A fact sheet on the CDC website that included information on proper condom use, the effectiveness of different types of condoms, and studies showing that condom education does not promote sexual activity was replaced in October 2002 with a document that emphasizes condom failure rates and the effectiveness of abstinence.1 When a source inside the CDC questioned the actions, she was told that the changes were directed by Bush administration officials at the Department of Health and Human Services.

They are not saying "their information" was being disputed, manipulated, or misused. They don't make the claim that the information replacing "their information" is wrong or inaccurate. It seems to me their concern is with what information should be emphasized by being listed on a website. If this is the basis of their arguments, they seem weak to me.
