ACSH staffers offer a seat at the table to Kyle Gillis for yesterday s item in the Media Research Center s Business & Media Institute blog. Gillis highlights the bias in an NBC Nightly News segment on unhealthy chain restaurant meals, which directly parallels ACSH s stance on the matter. Gillis further quotes ACSH s Jeff Stier:

Obesity rates are not rising and for the media to continue to report that they are is misleading. It s another example of the media s agenda that supports government regulation in the food industry.

Gillis notes NBC s segment was based on a study conducted by the left-leaning Center for Science in the Public Interest, which continually badgers consumers and businesses while pushing for greater regulation of food.

ACSH s Dr. Elizabeth Whelan serves as an advisory board member for the Business & Media Institute.
