Link to the Executive Summary for a Special Report released today from the MRC's Free Market Project. The study carries the bylines of MRC Director of Research Richard Noyes and Free Market
Director Paul F. Stifflemire, Jr.
The release of the MRC's study coincides with a week-long series this week on ABC News: "America's Obesity Crisis."
"So how successful have these radical activists been at getting their agenda taken seriously by the major media? To find out, researchers with the MRC’s Free Market Project analyzed all 205 news stories about obesity published in The New York Times, USA Today, or aired on the three broadcast network evening newscasts and nighttime magazine shows between May 1, 2003 and April 30, 2004."
