...Evaluating the Media for Credibility CRT 205 July 3, 2012 LaToya Gilbert Evaluating the Media for Credibility I watched the Fox News with Shepard Smith on channel 360 at 6:00pm. The show touched on several different stories that are happening throughout the world. Most of the stories that were mentioned received about at least two to three minutes of air time the first thirty minutes of the news broadcast. The second half of the hour that was referred to as “the bottom half of the hour” by Shepard Smith was said to contain the top stories. The stories that were talked about in this portion of the show had about at least 5 minutes of air time. The majority of the stories that were given air time on the show were showing the negative issues to topics that had happened. I believe that Shepard Smith did a great job providing the top stories to his audience with enough information facts and examples to make the stories and the issues believable. The current drought status, botched jewelry store robbery, tropical storm and drunk driver were briefly mentioned. The Olympics is a huge story at this point in time. They talked about Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte and the competition they have going against each other. By mentioning this they have made it more enticing and people will want to watch to see the outcome. They focus should be on beating the other team but the show is helping sell the story by focusing on their individual battle going on between themselves. Another...

...Investment Banking: Past, Present, and Future by Alan D. Morrison, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford and William J. Wilhelm, Jr., McIntire School of Commerce, University of Virginia investment banks are changing fast. Forty years ago the industry was dominated by a few small partnerships that made the bulk of their income from the commissions they earned floating securities on behalf of their clients. Today’s investment banks are huge full-service firms that make a substantial proportion of their revenues in technical trading businesses that started to attain their current prominence only in the 1980s. The CPI-adjusted capitalization of the top ten investment banks soared from $1 billion in 1960 to $194 billion in 2000. Between 1979 and 2000, the number of professionals1 employed by the top five investment banks (ranked by capitalization) rose from 56,000 to 205,000.2 The enormous upheavals documented in the previous paragraph raise a number of difficult questions. What have the investment banks of today got in common with their predecessors? Is it possible to draw any meaningful parallels between businesses that today call themselves investment banks and the investment banks of 20, 40, or even 100 years ago? What is the source of the recent changes to the investment banking landscape, and can we say anything about the likely future direction of the industry? These questions point to a more fundamental one: namely, if investment banks did not exist, would we need to invent...

...This page intentionally left blank Managerial Economics Managerial economics, meaning the application of economic methods in the managerial decision-making process, is a fundamental part of any business or management course. This textbook covers all the main aspects of managerial economics: the theory of the firm; demand theory and estimation; production and cost theory and estimation; market structure and pricing; game theory; investment analysis and government policy. It includes numerous and extensive case studies, as well as review questions and problem-solving sections at the end of each chapter.
