Thank you for posting this painful yet important information. There is also a wonderful women named Diane Jessup who is pretty much the premiere pitbull expert in the country. She's got some great (and graphic) information on dog fighting here in the states.
She also has some good info on who is feeding the negative propaganda. Discovery Channel (who owns Animal Planet shame on them!) is one of them as is Iams and PETA. PETA recently started a program to get all pitbulls in shelters euthanized to make room for the "nice" dogs. She provides addresses to write if you wish.
