    A Woman's Nation Changes Everything Acknowledgements “The Shriver Report” has many partners. Our media partners include NBC Universal, Women at NBCU, Telemundo Network & Stations, and TIME. Our technology partner, Hewlett-Packard, our economic empowerment partner, Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women, and our model employer partner, Deloitte LLP, give the project substantive reach. In addition, Visa, The Catherine B. Reynolds Foundation, PG&E, iVillage, USC Annenberg Center on Communication Leadership and Policy, and the Berkeley Center on Health, Economic & Family Security at UC Berkeley School of Law provided for a national footprint of this report. From Maria Shriver This book is filled with facts, and here’s one more: This report wouldn’t even exist without Karen Skelton. She pushed this project from the very beginning. She spearheaded it, massaged it, shepherded it—in short, she made it happen. We’ve been working together for six years, and while Karen may labor behind the scenes, there’s nothing behind-the-scenes about her. She’s a brilliant politi- cal strategist, writer, attorney, talent scout, and leader of women and men—and a spectacular mother and friend. She juggles policy, political clients, polls, and prose, and still finds time for yoga and church. She makes normal multitaskers look like they’re standing still. Leslie Miller—who also jumped in before we had a plan or partners—is a veteran communications strategist with enormous talents that enabled us to expand the reach of the project. Leslie is the calm in the storm. She takes the whirlwind of moving pieces, people and targets and creates order and direction.

Plaintiff appeals the Court’s April 3, 2008 Order granting numerous motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment following a hearing held April 2. For the reasons stated below, Plaintiff’s application is denied. I. BACKGROUND Plaintiff’s Complaint arises out of an investigation and criminal prosecution which commenced in November 2000. Both state and federal authorities participated in the investigation into Medicaid and Medicare fraud and criminal enterprise. Ultimately, three African-American physicians, including Plaintiff, were charged. During this time period, local media, including Defendants Stinger and Fox News, reported on the investigation.
