Watch report "How Big Tobacco Helped Create the Junkman," Milloy got his full fledged launch as an industry apologist in the early 1990s working for the tobacco industry.In 1992 Milloy worked for James Tozzi at Multinational Business Services. Tozzi, a former career bureaucrat at the U.S. Office of Management and Budget who had spearheaded the Reagan-era OMB campaign to gut environmental regulations, is described in internal Philip Morris documents as the company's "primary contact on the EPA/ETS risk assessment during the second half of 1992." During that period, the memo noted, "Tozzi has been invaluable in executing our Washington efforts including generating technical briefing papers, numerous letters to agencies and media interviews," a service for which Philip Morris paid an estimated $300,000 in consulting fees.

</li><li>According to PR Watch, after leaving Tozzi's service, Milloy became president of his own organization called the "Regulatory Impact Analysis Project, Inc.," where he wrote a couple of reports arguing that "most environmental risks are so small or indistinguishable that their existence cannot be proven." Shortly thereafter, he launched the "Junk Science Home Page." Calling himself "the Junkman," he offered daily attacks on environmentalists, public health and food safety regulators, anti-nuclear and animal rights activists, and a wide range of other targets that he accused of using unsound science to advance various political agendas.</li><li>
</li><li>Between March 1997 and the fall of 1998, Milloy was the well-paid head of the corporate front group,The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (Milloy was paid $100,000 for the 1998 fiscal year according to TASSC's IRS 990 form). For a time, the Junkscience.com web site and TASSC were one and the same. 

The now-defunct Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (TASSC), founded primarily by Philip Morris in 1993, was part of a corporate plan to pump millions of dollars into a campaign to cast doubt on a variety of environmental and public health issues, including global warming and second hand smoke.(The New York Times, April 25, 1998) TASSC, originally set up as a front group by APCO and Associates (PR firm related to EOP Group, Milloy's previous employer), and faded into oblivion after September 1998, possibly due to the damage caused by the negative exposure in the 1998 New York Times article. TASSC was funded by Philip Morris, Exxon, Procter and Gamble, Dow, 3M and other large corporations, primarily as a pro-tobacco and anti-tort voices. TASSC left the scene in 1998, yet Milloy has used TASSC's phone number and address for all his subsequent ventures.

Though later a project of the EOP Group, TASSC was originally based in the Washington, D.C. offices of the lobbying firm APCO Associates and claimed a membership of over 400 corporations representing chemical, agricultural, manufacturing, oil, dairy, timber, paper and mining interests, including Amoco, Chevron, and Occidental Petroleum, as well as industry trade associations. TASSC also had a science advisory panel of over 200 members, including some of the most prominent science skeptics in America. TASSC is mentioned by name in the now infamous "tobacco papers" as a group organized to help with the "scientific" message that second hand smoke is harmless. The purpose of TASSC, as described in a memo from APCO's Tom Hockaday and Neal Cohen, was to "link the tobacco issue with other more 'politically correct' products"--in other words, to make the case that efforts to regulate tobacco were based on the same "junk science".</li><li>
</li><li>Environmental Policy Analysis Network- Created and run by Steven Milloy, the Environmental Policy Analysis Network is an earlier incarnation of a one-man front group. EPAN served as the pre-TASSC vehicle for Milloy's editorial campaign for "sound science" and as the home for Milloy's "Junk Science Home Page" This is particularly interesting in light of the fact that "junkscience.com" lists the EOP Group's address as the contact on its web registration.</li></ul>court doc:The Advancement of Sound Science Center (TASSC), formerly <a id="TASSC2" name="TASSC2" style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); outline: none;" />The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition, is an industry-funded lobby group which promotes the idea that environmental science is “junk science”, which should be replaced by “sound science” more favourable to corporate interests (see Wikipedia: <a target="blank" href="http://tinyurl.com/2rgkr8" title="" style="text-decoration-line: none; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 51, 153); outline: none;">http://tinyurl.com/2rgkr8</a>).It runs well-funded campaigns to cast doubt on a variety of environmental and public health issues, including global warming and second hand smoke.It was founded primarily by the tobacco company Philip Morris in 1993 and changed its name after receiving negative exposure in an April 26, 1998 New York Times article: John H.

A report on New Mexico for the tobacco industry notes:<blockquote>The TI lobbylist does not anticipate any significant tort reform activity in 1988. Collateral sources may be given consideration, as may insurance regulation or workers compensation issues. There is virtually no chance that product liability proposals will be introduced or could move in 1988.Governor Carruthers sees tort reform as valuable to economic development, but he is not actively pushing for reforms in 1988. His effectiveness in promoting legislation is questionable.The Speaker of the House is firmly opposed the tort and product liability reform. He is backed by the Trial Lawyers and the AFL-CIO.The New Mexico Alliance for Tort Reform worked for 1987 legislation, but considers 1988 an unlikely year for action due to the time constraint.The Institute lobbyist [Barberousse] works this issue through his representation of the Association of Independent Insurers.

These data clearly indicate wide-spread concern over how scientific research is conducted, why it is conducted, and how it is used in the formation of public policy."After months of research and 10% development, The Advancement of Sound Science Coalition (TASSC) issued its "Five Guiding Scientific Principles" to offer a standard against which policy-makers should measure research.The TASSC member scientists who assisted in drafting our Statement of Principles are :<ul data:image="data:image" svg="svg" xml="xml" csvg="Csvg" width="%225%22" height="%2213%22%3E" ccircle="Ccircle" cx="%222.5%22" cy="%229%22" r="%222.5%22" fill="%22%23222%22/%3E" c="C" e="E" style="margin: 0.3em 0px 0.5em 1.6em; padding: 0px; list-style-image: url("");" xmlns="%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22" xmlns:data="data"><li style="margin-bottom: 0.1em;">Dr. <a href="https://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=James_E.Enstrom" title="James E.
