Biography/History
John Clyde Stauber was born in 1953 in Marshfield, Wisconsin. Stauber grew up in a politically conservative family, but became involved in anti-Vietnam War and environmental causes in high school. He graduated from Marshfield High School in 1971 and intentionally decided not to attend college, instead turning to social change activism and the back to the land movement. Stauber bought a tract of land in Ashland County in northern Wisconsin, where he found a like-minded community of environmental and peace activists. The grassroots organizations he subsequently founded or co-founded include the Coalition for Economic Alternatives (1973-1979), Citizens National Forest Coalition (1978-1979?), and the anti-nuclear organization Stop Project ELF (1979-1985). After stints of living in Madison, Wisconsin in the 1970s, he moved there in 1980 and served as the development director for the Wisconsin Coordinating Council on Nicaragua (1985-1988). From 1988 to early 1994, he worked as a consultant on the recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) issue and then as the Midwest coordinator for the Pure Food Campaign of the Foundation on Economic Trends, an organization headed by activist Jeremy Rifkin. Stauber was also involved in anti-rBGH efforts with other organizations: the Coalition on Responsible Technology, a group organized in April 1989 by activists including dairy farmer John Kinsman, and as national coordinator of the Humane Farming Association's anti-rBGH campaign in 1994.
Although dairy scientists knew that injecting bovine somatotropin into cows could significantly increase milk production, it was only the introduction of genetic engineering that made the manufacturing process cost-efficient. As pharmaceutical companies developed commercial versions of recombinant bovine somatotropin (as the genetically engineered versions were known to distinguish them from the naturally occurring hormone), debate over the pros and cons of using the drug increased. In 1988, State Senator Russ Feingold introduced a bill that would require labeling of any milk produced using rBGH, while also advocating for a more comprehensive ban on the drug. At the end of April 1990, Wisconsin became the first state in the country to impose a moratorium on the sale or use of rBGH in dairy cows until June 1, 1991, although FDA approval was ultimately delayed until 1993.
A project of the Foundation on Economic Trends (FET), the Pure Food Campaign (PFC) was founded in 1992, to raise awareness of the rBGH issue and its perceived threat to the nation's milk supply. One focus of the campaign was keeping milk sold or distributed in school cafeterias free of rBGH milk. Other concerns included the uncertain implications for human health, animal welfare issues, the effects on public perception of milk as an untainted, “pure” food, and the threat to small family farms if the use of rBGH resulted in an oversupply of milk and lower milk prices were paid to dairy farmers. The rBST product manufactured by Monsanto was the first to be approved by the FDA in November 1993, however, a moratorium delayed sales for 90 days. In response, the PFC planned a national boycott of rBGH products, held “milk dumping” events, organized petitions, and made direct appeals to food companies, processors, and grocery stores not to use or sell products produced with rBGH. FET and PFC also supported the “Dump the National Dairy Board Campaign,” an effort which arose in part from anti-rBGH sentiment among some dairy farmers.
Meanwhile, debate between pro- and anti-rBGH activists continued. In January 1994, the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) approved a rBGH-free label for cheese maker Cedar Grove Cheese, which only used milk from farmers who pledged not to use rBGH in the management of their dairy herds. On February 3, 1994, the 90-day moratorium on the sale of rBGH products expired; Stauber and others mobilized a national boycott of rBGH milk and dairy products. A group of dairy farmers, rBGH activists, and the Foundation for Economic Trends filed suit in federal district court, contending that the FDA had not taken into account the hormone's effect on human health and its economic impact on small dairy farmers, among other concerns. Activists also held a widely publicized milk dumping event at the Capitol Square headquarters of the milk processors association Wisconsin Federation of Cooperatives on the same date. Although earlier attempts to label milk produced using rBGH were unsuccessful, anti-rBGH activists supported legislation that allowed labeling of milk produced without the hormone.
In 1993, Stauber founded the Center for Media and Democracy (CMD), a watchdog organization which he directed for the next sixteen years. The CMD also published a magazine called PR Watch (1993-2008). By the spring of 1994, Stauber was no longer actively involved in anti-rBGH activities, although he continued to monitor events related to genetic engineering.
Among the books Stauber has co-written (with Sheldon Rampton) are: Toxic Sludge is Good for You: Lies, Damn Lies, and the Public Relations Industry (1995), Mad Cow U.S.A.: Could the Nightmare Happen Here (1997), Trust Us, We're Experts: How Industry Manipulates Science and Gambles with Your Future (2002), Weapons of Mass Deception: The Uses of Propaganda in Bush's War on Iraq (2003), Banana Republicans: How the Right Wing is Turning America into a One-Party State (2004), and The Best War Ever: Lies, Damn Lies, and the Mess in Iraq (2006).
In 2009, he retired from CMD and is currently an independent writer and editor.
A Note on Terminology: Researchers will note the use of various terms for bovine somatotropin throughout the collection: BST, bST, rBST (terms preferred by manufacturers, the National Dairy Board, most government officials, and public relations firms), and rBGH, BGH, or bGH (bovine growth hormone, preferred by Stauber and other BGH opponents).
Scope and Content Note
The collection consists solely of John Stauber's files related to his work on the anti-rBGH campaign, mainly 1988 to 1995, and documents the investigative and strategic aspects of Stauber's work on this issue. Included are organizing materials such as working notes, correspondence, press releases, and other publicity materials from Stauber's involvement with the Foundation on Economic Trends, its Pure Food Campaign project, and affiliated groups in the anti-BGH coalition. The rest of the collection consists of research and subject files (many of which were obtained through Freedom of Information Act and Wisconsin Open Records requests) for government agencies, dairy and pharmaceutical industry groups, public relations firms, university agriculture and extension departments, and professional and trade organizations. The papers also include a substantial portion of news clippings, both from industry groups monitoring media coverage of the rBST issue and from activists working against use of this hormone commonly referred to in the John Stauber papers as rBGH or BGH, the term favored by BGH opponents. Also included is a scrapbook compiled by Lorraine Hawkinson, a community member who wrote editorials (included in the scrapbook) regarding her concerns about the use of rBGH.
The papers are arranged in four series: BACKGROUND AND RESEARCH MATERIALS, ANTI-rBGH ACTIVITY, SUBJECT FILES, and VISUAL MATERIALS.
The BACKGROUND AND RESEARCH MATERIALS series is arranged in the following subseries: Consumer organizations, Dairy and food industry, Federal departments and agencies, Pharmaceutical companies, Professional and trade associations, and University agriculture and extension departments.
Much of the material from federal agencies such as the United States Department of Agriculture was obtained through Stauber's Freedom of Information requests. Correspondence from agency representatives includes detailed lists of responsive documents and are arranged under the relevant agencies. Stauber also kept a set of FOIA files arranged in numerical order, and this has been retained for user reference, despite duplication with other files in the collection.
The Consumer organizations subseries consists mainly of Consumers Union materials, particularly the work of Michael K. Hansen, a research scientist with the Consumer Policy Institute, a division of Consumers Union, and includes Hansen's report, “Biotechnology and Milk: Benefit or Threat?,” as well as correspondence, press releases, news clippings, and Hansen's testimony before the FDA's Food and Veterinary Advisory Committees.
The Dairy and food industry subseries is arranged by constituent organizations, such as the Dairy Industry Coalition (including its Dairy News and Information Center), the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF), and United Dairy Industry Association (UDIA), and related to the issue of rBST and how its introduction could best be handled from a public relations perspective. This part of the collection includes correspondence, press releases, news clippings, reports on consumer attitudes, and public relations objectives.
The Federal departments and agencies subseries consists primarily of files related to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and its National Dairy Promotion and Research Board (NDPRB, also known as the National Dairy Board (NDB)), and includes correspondence, meeting minutes, reports, media monitoring of the rBST issue, NDB research on anti-rBGH organizations, educational materials on rBST, Freedom of Information Act request materials, memoranda of agreement for research with various universities, and other NDB documents that Stauber believed were evidence of a pro-BGH bias. The USDA files include incoming correspondence from citizens concerned about the BGH issue.
Also included are files related to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which approved the use of rBST, including files on Richard Burroughs, a FDA official who was critical of the BST approval process; a report written by two staff scientists, Judith C. Juskevich and C. Greg Guyer, that was published in the journal Science in 1990, disagreements with its findings, and its impact on the BGH issue; and outgoing correspondence from Gerald Guest, Richard Lehmann, and Frank Young. Other agencies include the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which held a technology assessment conference on bovine somatotropin at the end of 1990. Also included in this subseries are committee and agency reports, and files on key individuals associated with the BGH controversy.
The Pharmaceutical companies subseries consists of files of American Cyanamid, Eli Lilly, and Monsanto, the three main companies producing bovine somatotropin (bST), also known as recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH), and related organizations such as the Animal Health Institute (AHI), which had an active public information program regarding bST. The coverage of Monsanto, the manufacturer that first won FDA approval in November 1993 to market its version of bST (Posilac) and received the most media coverage in the BGH controversy, is the most extensive. Included are educational, promotional, and press materials, as well as materials on Monsanto focus groups that took place prior to FDA approval of the drug, and subsequent allegations of improper promotion. Documentation of the other manufacturers is relatively sparse.
The Professional and trade associations subseries includes files on organizations which became involved in the bST issue such as the American Medical Association and bST coverage in its medical journal, and other organizations which took positions on the issue.
The University agriculture and extension departments subseries consists of files on Dale Bauman at Cornell University, the animal scientist who performed early research into rbST as a cost-efficient technology for increasing dairy milk production; and BGH related research and controversy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
The ANTI-BGH ACTIVITY series includes files on various organizations working on the BGH issue, most prominently the Foundation on Economic Trends (FET) and its Pure Food Campaign (PFC), for which Stauber played a key organizing role. The FET/PFC boycott of BGH dairy foods materials include press releases, event flyers, bumper stickers, action alerts, organizing kits, and information on services such as the 900 number (1-900-PUREFOOD) for the public to retrieve general information on BGH, boycott tactics, and lists of resources for BGH-free dairy products. Also included are files on two federal lawsuits in which FET participated: the first (1990) charged that the National Dairy Board and BGH manufacturers had participated in promotion of BGH before it had received FDA approval, and the other (1994) challenged the FDA's approval of BGH.
Other topics documented in this series relate to the European Commission's moratorium on BGH and concerns about its effect on the U.S., the role of BGH milk in school cafeterias and concern for its long-term health effects on children, unknown effects on human health in general, economic effects of BGH on small scale dairy farmers, organizing actions and legislation regarding labeling in individual U.S. states, primarily Vermont and Wisconsin. Despite signing a temporary ban on the use of BGH until June 1, 1991 (the first BGH moratorium in the U.S.) in 1990, Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson vetoed a more comprehensive BGH ban proposed by then State Senator Russ Feingold. Of note in the Wisconsin files are open records requests that relate to Governor Thompson's veto of a subsequent BGH moratorium in 1991.
Photocopied newspaper clippings are found throughout the collection, as well as dedicated clippings files in this series, arranged by year and topic.
The SUBJECT FILES series includes files on biotechnology related issues, such as porcine somatotropin (PST), the Calgene Flavr Savr tomato, and files on other applications of biotechnology.
The VISUAL MATERIALS series includes one folder of black and white prints, negatives, and contact sheets of “milk dump” demonstrations, and six video recordings, including promotional videos, media coverage, and a news conference with Governor Tommy Thompson.
