only hopes really was used for a game of strip billiards.” Support The author uses past incidents with Prince William as support in the article. He also uses quotes from citizens of England, and Us Magazine. These are a long shot at best. The Royal Family did not comment on the incident. Nor did Prince Harry. Therefore, there is not much solid evidence used by the author as to whether or not the prince will be reprimanded upon his return. Reliability This article does not seem to have

Business Research Ethics I am currently sitting on unemployment status. The last job I had was military service with the Marines. I have been out of the services for about a year. I was a recruiter for the last three years. One thing I can tell you for sure is that recruiting relies on efficient business research.
