For the LA Times today:
"Stung by the public relations fallout from antitrust investigations of its
business practices, Microsoft Corp. has secretly been planning a massive
media campaign designed to influence state investigators by creating the
appearance of a groundswell of public support for the company.
"The elaborate plan, outlined in confidential documents obtained by The
Times, hinges on a number of unusual-and some say unethical-tactics,
including the planting of articles, letters to the editor and opinion
pieces to be commissioned by Microsoft's top media handlers but presented
by local firms as spontaneous testimonials."
