BLOG for ADVOCATES
We created this blog to share interesting advocacy related items that cross our desks. It can be anything from new research on funding for advocacy to examples of unusual advocacy strategies. If you have an item to share please send it to npaction@npaction.org.
Tuesday, March 11, 2008 Identifying Front Groups If you've ever questioned the legitimacy of some advocacy campaigns, then a new website created by the Center for Media & Democracy and Consumer Reports Webwatch may help you discover if an advocacy campaign is actually an offshoot of a "front group". The site, Full Frontal Scrutiny, not only provides a list of common characteristics shared by several "front groups" but it also unveils the actual campaign ploys used by recently detected front groups. With the help of more and more concerned citizens, hopefully this site will have an increased capacity for exposing organizations and persons seeking to underhandedly persuade millions of Americans.
