Description
IT WASN'T a good day for the Department of Defense when Stars and Stripes scooped the Pentagon's secret scheme to profile journalists covering the war. Seems that the Rendon Group--the tyrannosaurus rex of military public-relations contractors--was getting paid to weed out reporters who did not fit the command's ideal of tractability. The Army and Rendon have vociferously denied that embed requests were being held up on this basis, despite subsequent revelations of two confirmed cases to the contrary and reports by individual journalists who obtained their Rendon-generated profiles.
