More on Pew Research Center
Description from Wikipedia:
The Pew Research Center is a Washington, D.C.-based think tank that provides information on the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the United States and the world. The Center and its projects receive funding from The Pew Charitable Trusts.
The Pew Research Center is a strictly non-advocacy organization, while the Pew Charitable Trusts supports advocacy and non-advocacy projects.
While in the years immediately following its foundation the group was staunchly conservative in its views, later positions have included moves into environmental advocacy as well as support for "non-incarceration" methods of dealing with criminals.
The Trusts, a single entity, is the successor to and sole beneficiary of seven charitable funds established between 1948 and 1979 by the adult children of Sun Oil Company founder Joseph N. Pew and his wife, Mary Anderson Pew. The four co-founders were J. Howard Pew, Mary Ethel Pew, Joseph N. Pew, Jr., and Mabel Pew Myrin.
The Center's work is carried out by seven projects:
*Pew Research Center for the People and the Press
*Project for Excellence in Journalism
*Pew Internet and American Life Project
*Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life
*Pew Hispanic Center
*Pew Global Attitudes Project
*Pew Social and Demographic Trends Project
