You call this a coincidence? zdnet.com Meanwhile, esteemed ilk sister Mary Jo Foley is hot on the trail of the source of various "independent" research showing how good Microsoft is for us all. Now, here's the rub. The McKenzie/Shugart white paper and forthcoming Liebowitz/Margolis book are both being published by the Oakland, Calif., public-policy group, The Independent Institute. The Independent Institute, says its tag line is a "nonprofit, nonpoliticized, scholarly public policy research and education organization." But, wait: there's more. According to Liebowitz, professor of managerial economics for the University of Texas at Dallas, The Independent Institute's public relations agency is Edelman PR Worldwide. One of Edelman's biggest public affairs clients is Microsoft. Good old Edelman, the source of that famous "aborted" grass roots campaign on Bill's behalf. Poor Mary Jo, her handlers there are not going to be pleased. Cheers, Dan.
