Why is it that only some groups need to be transparent? In many of today's news reports on the FDA's new draft guidance on advisory committee conflict of interest some groups are deemed "consumer advocates" -- but no mention is made of their funding sources, while other organizations are quoted, but tagged "industry funded."
Why is this?
For example:
http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/nationworld/bal-te.fda22mar22,0,763576.story?coll=bal-home-headlines
A good story by a solid reporter -- but shouldn't there be transparency for all concerned?
Isn't that the point?
