Manhattan Institute Statement: Betsy McCaughey Was Not Paid or Influenced by Philip Morris
NEW YORK, Sept. 28 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following is a statement issued by Manhattan Institute Vice President of Communications & Marketing, Lindsay Young Craig:
"Below is a letter to the editor of Rolling Stone from Lawrence Mone, President, Manhattan Institute for Policy Research."
In his article "The Lie Machine" Tim Dickenson asserts that former Manhattan Institute scholar Betsy McCaughey's work was influenced by Phillip Morris. This conclusion is false. Betsy McCaughey wrote two articles for the Wall Street Journal on the Clinton Health Care plan and an additional article for the New Republic which was solicited by its publisher. At no time were her ideas influenced or controlled by anyone but the author herself.
