2006 was a year full of deception, manipulation, prevarication, and bald faced lies. But now it's payback time! Every day, we at the Center for Media and Democracy are up to our ankles (and sometimes higher) in the corporate spin and government propaganda that PR firms keep churning out. We have our "favorites," to be sure -- but now we want to hear what YOU think!
At the end of each year, CMD issues the "Falsies Awards," to recognize the people and players responsible for polluting our information environment. This year, we are asking you to help identify the worst spinners and propagandists of 2006. We have put together a juicy selection of nominees -- but we need you to vote and tell us who deserves the Falsies this year.
Go to our survey to fill out your ballot! The Deadline for entries is 5:00 p.m. CST on Friday, December 1, 2006.
Investigative reporting is expensive. If you appreciate CMD's muckracking ways, please donate to support our work.
Thank you!
