#2 Fact: Anytime you read, see, or hear a story quoting the "Center for Science in the Public Interest", that story came from a press release from that group. They provide the story, the quotes, the "experts" to interview, everything. There are other groups that receive similar treatment, notably the Democrat Party.

That, to me, is a much more troubling practice than subsidizing the Iraqi press in exchange for a few (a dozen!) stories being printed.

#3 RC - Big difference between using a press release as part of the sourcing for a story and paying for the release to be run as a story.

#5 Hell, CNN paid Saddam and his cronies to report good news from Baghdad censoring the real information. So whats this crap about jounalistic integrity. You got to have some in order to loose it.
