A new European organization, Spinwatch, has been launched to inform "journalists and the general public about the behind-the-scenes interests that influence - and occasionally create - the news." Co-founder David Miller "says the lies of non-existent weapons of mass destruction, and the general lack of questioning in the mainstream media, inspired him to take action," reports the Guardian. "Miller wants to recreate U.S. corporate bugbear PR Watch for a UK and European audience." Spinwatch's launch coincides with "a conference on government spin and corporate deception at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow."
