Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:
> Working behind the scenes to orchestrate “independent” praise of our

> available for just $200/hour. “Independent” academic sources should
> be cultivated and quoted (and granted research money).
[...]
> The document admitted into evidence also says, “The key to stacking a
> panel is being able to choose the moderator,” and explains how to
> find “pliable” moderators–those who will sell out.
