MoveOn needs to be responsible for the outsourcing they do. But no, it's not MoveOn's campaign. It's GCI's campaign and GCI's model.
MoveOn is using the only organization that can "deliver."

"Companies wake up to blogs' barking," The Guardian, 9/19/2006 The world's largest retailer has attracted WakeUpWalMart, Wal-MartWatch and a raft of others dutifully listing its alleged atrocities against employees. Then there is McChronicles, which offers detailed accounts of visits to branches of McDonalds - recently describing a fly infestation and missing lavatory doorknob at the Clinton, New York, outlet of the fast-food chain. Mostly, the contents of such sites are anecdotal. But they can become a significant rallying point for a company's critics. The business world is all too aware of the salutary lesson learned by Kryptonite bicycle locks - presumably named in the hope that they would be strong enough to defeat Superman. A blogger in 2004 posted a clip demonstrating that, in fact, one of Kryptonite's designs was unable to withstand an attack from a biro. Kryptonite's fortunes took a sharp downward turn.
