"ESI and Mitofsky... has yet to show the integrity to withdraw its own analysis, which it has wrongfully let stand since June, and presented in October to the American Statistical Association fall conference in Philadelphia."

The poor grammar here betrays poor meaning.

"ESI and Mitofsky" are not "it."

ESI presented an analysis of Ohio at AAPOR in May, and 'published' some results from it in early June. Mitofsky presented an analysis of nationwide data in October. The analyses are somewhat similar (although they use different measures), but not interchangeable. Still less are ESI and Mitofsky interchangeable.

As for the rest, I associate myself with the remarks of the estimable Febble.
