Think Tanks and the Influence of Corporate Dollars; New York Times, 8/10/16

Room for Debate, New York Times; Think Tanks and the Influence of Corporate Dollars:

"Think tanks inform both government policy and media analysis with their research, because as nonprofit institutions, they are seen as independent. But some institutions vigorously push their donors’ agendas, acting like lobbyists. Some scholars even use their positions at think tanks to promote work they are separately paid to do for corporations.

What can be done to protect against corporate influence over research institutions?"
