Carey Gillam, who spent the past 17 years covering the food and agriculture industries for Reuters, has been hired by Right to Know as its U.S. research director.
A story on CorporateCrimeReporter.com states, “In her role at U.S. Right to Know, Gillam will coordinate research projects and reports, media partnerships and written communications that represent and advance the group’s mission to better inform the public about food industry practices and the industry’s often-hidden role in public policy.
“‘There is little else more important than the food we eat, and the health of the environment in which we live,’ said Gillam. ‘But too often corporate interests control the narrative about the American food production system, and too often they downplay or ignore the risks while focusing solely on promoting what they see as the rewards. I want to help to level the playing field by illuminating information that people can use when making decisions about the food they consume.’
“Gillam has been recognized as one of the top food and agriculture journalists in the United States, winning several awards for her coverage of the industry, and appearing as an expert commentator on radio and television broadcasts.”
