	Front Organization (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)

		These parties may or may not be front organizations in the narrow sense â” they have varying degrees of autonomy and the relationships are usually something of an open secret â” but are widely considered to be so, especially by their political opponents.

	Front groups - SourceWatch
		The front group is perhaps the most easily recognized use of the third party technique.
		Of course, not all organizations engaged in manipulative efforts to shape public opinion can be classified as "front groups." For example, the now-defunct Tobacco Institute was highly deceptive, but it didn't hide the fact that it represented the tobacco industry.
		Thus, citizen smokers' rights groups and organizations of bartenders or restaurant workers working against smoking bans are sometimes characterized as front groups for the tobacco industry, but it is possible that some of these groups are self-initiated (although the tobacco industry has been known to use restaurant groups as fronts for its own interests).

		The development and control of front organizations (or "facade" organizations) is an essential process in the guerrilla effort to carry out the insurrection.

		BANGALORE - While the Indian government has been tightening rules for non-government organizations receiving foreign funds, especially those run by religious minorities, front organizations of the Sangh Parivar (of which the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party - BJP - is a part) continue to receive millions of dollars from abroad.

		The report says that the IDRF "is not a secular and non-sectarian organization as it claims to be, but is, on the contrary, a major conduit of funds for Hindutva organizations in India".
