Paul Moran (d. 2003) was an Australian free lance journalist and member of the PR firm Rendon Group who was used as a conduit for INC propaganda. He became the first journalist to die in the war he had helped sell.
According to Bamford:

"He worked for the Rendon Group in London," says his mother, Kathleen. "They just send people all over the world -- where there are wars."
