If the Annals, or any other medical journal for that matter, wants to let the former CEO, current Chairman, and major stock-holder of a large commercial managed care organization lecture us on pay-for-performance, a topic clearly related to the company’s vested interests, that is the journal’s right. However, the journal should clearly explain who the authors of its articles are.
