Roundtable Blasts Greater Cleveland Partnership's Cleveland State Gambling Study
CLEVELAND, OH, August 24, 2005. The Ohio Roundtable today released a detailed analysis of the gambling study prepared for the Greater Cleveland Partnership and a select group of business leaders. The Roundtable criticized the Cleveland State College of Urban Affairs for publishing a report that they state was clearly biased and focused on manipulating voters.
Roundtable President David Zanotti and Legislative Affairs Director Melanie Elsey wrote the five-page analysis that challenges what they say are the shallow research conclusions and flawed economic assumptions of the Greater Cleveland Partnership/Cleveland State University report. The Roundtable also questioned whether a tax-funded University such as CSU should be publishing research for undisclosed clients whose motives are to change the laws of Ohio for potential personal profit.
