That would be another example. It's not *always* the case. But then, would a 
company fund a study and then publish the results if it actually went 
against them? As in, there are 1000 things you could study about your 
product. Why would you fund a study that has a good probability of putting 
your product in a bad light? By the time you do the study, you already have 
a *pretty* good idea of how it's likely to come out, or you wouldn't fund 
the study.

And of course, if you fund a study about (say) the quality of your printers, 
and you find out that your printer is only meh compared to the competition, 
why would you publish that study?
