Trade groups lobby. Front groups, really the name of the game is to engage in public relations, some of them may not lobby at all. But PR is a critical mission of front groups and again the idea is not to be transparent about what they\'re doing, but to make themselves appear they are one thing when they are something else." to "And it\\\'s really important to understand how front groups work and why they\\\'re different from trade groups.

poenta je da se "front groups" lažno predstavljaju, da uopšte nisu "nezavisne grupe", da su puka fasada
n.pr. tvrde da su nezavisne grupe koje zastupaju "ugnjetavane pušače" a zapravo ih je osnovala i finansira ih (neposredno ili posredno) duvanska industrija
"marionetska grupa" bi imalo smisla jer "front group" je grupa koje je kao marionete, javno nastupa onako kako neko vuče konce iza scene (zastupa tuđe interese shodno tuđim nalozima). Drugo je pitanju kako to zvuči.
front group = marionete, fasada za prikrivene interese ... grupa zadužena za zamajavanje javnosti i sl.
