Center for Consumer Freedom Exposed

and Other Opposition Groups

The Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) (formerly called the " Guest Choice

Network " ) is a front group

restaurant, alcohol and tobacco industries. It runs media campaigns

which oppose the efforts of scientists, doctors, health advocates,

environmentalists and groups like Mothers Against Drunk Driving, calling

them " the Nanny Culture -- the growing fraternity of food cops, health

care enforcers, anti-meat activists, and meddling bureaucrats who 'know

what's best for you. For more detailed information, please visit:

Expose of Richard Berman of the Center for Consumer Freedom:

" While Berman presents himself as a defender of consumers against

overbearing bureaucrats and health zealots, he's really defending the

interests of another group: restaurant chains, food and beverage

companies, meat producers, and others who stand to see profits hampered

by government regulations, or even by increased health awareness on the

part of customers. "
