Nichols endorsement reflects a close working relationship between the two. In February 2000 Wirthlin co-authored a report with [[Nichols-Dezenhall]], as it was then known, urging its clients to counter the [[precautionary principle]]. "Enlist surrogates who can effectively attack the Precautionary Principle and its misapplications. Language and positioning are all-important. Beware of saying that industry opposes the Precautionary Principle. Activists will seize on that to imply that big business does not care about people's health and safety," they warned.

The acknowledgements stated that "since 1987, N-D has often teamed with Wirthlin Worldwide to help clients achieve their business objectives in the face of environmental controversies, food safety allegations, media attacks, activist orchestrated protests and adverse litigation."
