Want to pick the worst PR spin job of 2005?

Have you taken the Center for Media and Democracy’s 2005 “Falsies Survey” yet? If not, please take a minute to do so today — the survey closes this Friday! They’re relying on journalists to help us identify the people and players most responsible for polluting the information environment over the last year. Do BP and Morgan Stanley deserve a gold Falsies Award? What about Wal-Mart? Or video news releases?

And if they’ve missed one of the worst spinners of 2005, you can also nominate people, industry groups, think tanks, PR firms, or other propagandists. They want to know what you think, so please vote today! They’ll announce the winners of the 2005 Falsies Awards on Jan. 2.

To vote, go here. I’m voting for the nuclear power industry.
