Please help to support our work here at the Center for Media & Democracy with a donation of $35, $100, $1,000 or more. You can securely donate online with a credit card. Donors will receive our award-winning publication, PR Watch, for one year. To ensure independence we refuse to accept corporate or government grants or advertising, and depend on concerned individuals like you.

The second quarter 2003 issue of PR Watch is now available online, featuring stories about the anti-environmental Wise Use movement's propaganda campaign against fish in Oregon's Klamath Basin and an excerpt from our latest book, Weapons of Mass Deception.

In a follow-up to events that we mentioned in May and discussed on the PR Watch Forum, former CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite has filed a lawsuit against WJMK, a Florida producer of video news releases, seeking $25 million in damages and saying the company misled him and tarnished his reputation when it persuaded him to appear in videos that promoted prescription drugs and other products.
