This "fact" frustrates me. I had two kids, and I nursed both of them for over a year. Breastfeeding didn't help me out in the cancer department, that's for sure.
I didn't nurse my babies to decrease my breast cancer risk. I nursed them because I wanted to do what I thought was best for them. If this added "benefit" helps other nursing mothers avoid or delay getting cancer, all I can say is I'm glad for them (and a tad bit jealous).
