"[New Hampshire] GOP Gubernatorial candidate Jim Coburn is facing an uphill battle. He's a one-term state rep. trying to unseat a Governor with high poll numbers and plenty of resources. That said, Jim Coburn is not working alone. Since late march, the former high-tech entrepreneur's campaign has been run by Meridian Communications, the PR firm that ... is also assisting New York Governor George Pataki as he explores a Presidential bid. But Meridian's co-founder, former TV-news reporter Jack Heath, does more than just advise candidates and companies on how to get good press. He also gives them press on his daily radio talk show. ... The Center for Media and Democracy [3]'s John Stauber says such conduct raises basic questions about the content of all of Heath's broadcasts, calling it 'very dishonest and less than ethical.' " After New Hampshire Public Radio broke this story, it was picked up by the Associated Press and the Boston Globe [4].
