Fiji Water Filters Into Fox, Cousteau

— By Jen Phillips | Tue October 20, 2009 1:45 PM PST

Our September/October 2009 Fiji Water expose had a big impact, and it's still going strong. Today the story was tweeted by Fox News anchor Julie Banderas... and by Celine Cousteau, granddaughter of filmmaker Jacques Cousteau and daughter of oceanic explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau. Celine Cousteau travels the world on expeditions, and her family owns the Jean-Michel Cousteau Fiji Islands Resort, an "Eco Friendly Resort" on the island of Vanua Levu in Fiji. I'm not sure if the Cousteau resort stocks Fiji Water, but it's good to see the story strike close to Fiji Water's home.

      Safe great tasting drinking water is hard to come by when you are dealing with water filters. Our ISO-RO5 Reverse Osmosis System will be able to provide you with everything you can want with drinking water – a great taste and a safe water source. Reverse osmosis is a type of water filtration that is capable of removing up to 99% of all contaminants in the water by simply using its own water pressure. http://www.isopurewater.com

      Can you believe the Cousteaus run a luxury resort on Figi?

      How can they do this when the dictatorship is so bad there? Shame on them. Ruining their family name and tradtiitions.
