CMI complements the MRC’s Business and Media Institute (BMI), founded in 1992 to bring balance to economic reporting and to promote fair portrayal of the business community in the media.

Mr. Bozell has also launched a number of other websites under the MRC umbrella including www.mediaresearch.org, www.timeswatch.org, www.mrcaction.org,  www.Newsbusters.org, a “blog” site that became one of the top 15 blog sites in America within two months of its launch in 2005, and most recently, www.EyeBlast.tv.
