Benador Associates was a Public Relations firm based in Washington and New York that promotes right wing writers and speakers. The firm was founded in the wake of the 9-11 attacks on New York and was "intellectually conceived and financially funded exclusively by Eliana Benador"[1].
The firm changed it's name in late 2007 to Benador Public Relations and the previous Benador Associates site is now closed down. There is a marked shift in the content of the new company away from the promotion of neoconservative politics and towards finance and real estate[2].
While operating as Benador Associates the firm advertised prominent experts like James Woolsey, A.M. Rosenthal, Richard Perle, Amir Taheri, Kanan Makiya and Saad Eddin Ibrahim. They advertised their sevices by saying "Each of our experts is nationally and internationally recognized on issues of the Middle East and national security[3]". Frank Gaffney has also appeared at Benador events.
