3I think the problem he describes, that most high profile product reviews are corrupted by unrevealed conflict of interest, is pervasive.
And not just in gun magazines. You could point out the same thing in auto magazines, and photography magazines, etc. Anywhere big money is at stake, you'll find corporate corruption of supposedly impartial reviews.
One attempt to mitigate this has been non-profits like Consumers Union, who are very conscientious about impartiality and firewalls against corporate influence. But they don't review guns in Consumers Reports, as far as I know.
Another welcome development has been all the do-it-yourself amateur product reviews you can now find on Youtube, etc. It's kind of a democratization of the process. The corporate bastards can't buy off every jackwagon who wants to post a video or comment on a website.
