Abstract
This paper explains that, with her recognizable Asian face, intense interviewing tactics and controversial techniques, Connie Chung has been a staple in broadcast news reporting for almost four decades. The author points out that, in the early 1990s, Chung became one of the most recognizable faces on television when she went back to CBS to be the anchor and correspondent of "Saturday Night with Connie Chung" and the Sunday edition of the "CBS Evening News". The paper relates that, in 1995, the reason for Chung's dismissal ranged from her poor work relationship with Dan Rather, to her controversial interviewing techniques, to charges of sexism by Chung.

From the Paper
"Living in Washington, D.C., the Chung family was like any other family - celebrating holidays, enjoying picnics, and attending school. Like many Chinese families, education was very important to the family. One of the best educators for Chung was the television. As a child, she would pretend the vacuum hose was a microphone and would make up interviews with people. Chung attended Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, MD, and then went on to pursue at first Biology and then Journalism at the University of Maryland. Since their family had no sons, Connie wanted to be the successful daughter to carry the family name."

Abstract
On September 8, 2004, CBS news anchor Dan Rather aired a report on apparent gaps in presidential candidate George W. Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard. In order to portray these gaps as evidence that Bush had received preferential treatment, Rather relied on memos that had allegedly been written by Lieutenant Colonel Jerry Killian, one of Bush's superiors during the early 1970's. Immediately after Rather's report, bloggers across the Internet began to raise doubts about the authenticity of these memos. By describing how the bloggers' suspicions eventually led to Rather's downfall, this paper attempts to show that the scandal revolved, not around the actual facts of Bush's service, but around the methods that CBS had used to gather and present documentary evidence.

From the Paper
"The report that aired on "60 Minutes Wednesday" featured an exclusive interview with Ben Barnes, a former lieutenant governor of Texas and speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, who said that he helped get Bush into the Texas Air National Guard at the pinnacle of the Vietnam War. As mentioned above, the report included documents from 1972 that were allegedly written by the late Lt. Col. Jerry Killian, one of Bush's former commanders. The Lt. Col. had previously alleged that Bush's Guard records had been "scrubbed" to hide information. The story was part of an investigation alleging that Bush benefited from political favoritism in getting out of commitments to the Texas Guard. The documents, supposedly made by Killian, included criticisms of Bush's service in the Guard and allegedly showed that Bush disobeyed orders. "

"Those who belittle ratings in the news business are naive...But it is how we get those ratings, what we do to make us competitive, that bothers me..." -- Walter Cronkite (May 10, 1976)

Introduction

Walter Cronkite, the most believable man in America, and the fictitious newsman Howard Beele in Paddy Chayevsky's "Network" share a common concern for broadcasting in the late 20th century. As ad dollars become scarcer, competition from independent networks and powerful cable programmers continue to shrink the market for traditional news presentations: offering news to viewers 24-hours a day. How "new" is news now when the viewer can ..."

"Introduction
The ease with which beer can be made, and the relative ease with which ingredients can be obtained, means that a number of individuals have brewed their own beer for years. This was particularly true during Prohibition, but some beer drinkers have found that they can create more interesting and flavorful beers in their basements than the largest beer manufacturers can create and bottle. In recent years, these so-called home brews have been taken to market and shared with local restaurants and consumers within a particular region; some companies, such as Anchor Brewing and Boston Beer, have capitalized on the renewed interest in more flavorful beers, and have even done much to promote that interest themselves. Today, brewpubs and restaurants serving local beers are common in many large cities, and even in places with.."

Abstract
In this paper the author takes a close look at the Coca-Cola Corporation. The author looks at the management and how Douglas Daft came to the helm with his new philosophy of thinking "local", rather than global management. The author examines what has happened to Coca-Cola over the last few years in various countries and how this has effected its reputation. The author them moves on to discuss Coca-Cola's relationship with its bottlers, trade unions and profit margins. Finally the author looks at how Coca-Cola has re-established itself in China, creating a new business model and its wars with competitors.

From the paper:

"Coke's overwhelming success in the U.S. is in large part due to its bottlers. Daft's decentralization strategy reassigns much of the work performed by 29,000 laid-off employees to the "anchor bottlers" (for marketing and sales) and to sub-contractors (for plant and office maintenance) resulting in fewer direct employees worldwide. This strategy allows the company to concentrate its efforts on garnering market share while not having to take responsibility for global industrial relations. The anchor bottlers, Coca-Cola Enterprises and Cola-Cola Amatil, actually have more employees than Coca-Cola Company (CCC). The company relies on them to bottle and distribute the lion?s share of its products."

Abstract
The paper explores the difference between dogma and doctrine, the first papal encyclical by Pope Benedict XVI, and the use of symbols such as the dove, fish, anchor, and pelican.

From the Paper
"Catholic dogma and doctrine are not interchangeable as many seem to think. While dogma is a teaching of the Church that requires belief on the part of all Catholics, Van Vurst doctrine refers to oral teaching such as that done by Christ. Christian Doctrine connotes a corpus of religious dogma as it is promulgated by a church Doctrine. The word doctrine is synonymous in the Catholic Church with catechism.
"Christian Doctrine: As the broader term dogma is an all-encompassing category that was..."

Abstract
This paper examines the 5th and 15th amendments to the United States Constitution and applies them to the current issues regarding illegal immigration. The paper also argues that the US should not deport foreign born parents of children born in the U.S., who have full citizenship as anchor babies.

The Amendments

From the Paper
"The illegal immigrants have been increasing in America and have been able to gain benefits through health care, educational opportunities and other perks of living in the country, without having to submit the same paperwork that citizens and legal immigrants are required to submit. This has begun to create tension throughout America as jobs become less available and funding begins to get tightened. Whether the funding and employment issues are a direct result of illegal immigration or not does not sway the detractors who insist the illegal immigrants not only be forced to leave the country, but are also beginning to request that American born children by illegal immigrants not be allowed to attend public schools."

Abstract
This paper looks at the importance of mall architecture vis-a-vis the anchor stores, the effect that these anchor stores have on other stores and several of the ways in which the physical design of malls tends to manipulate the behavior of shoppers in those malls.

From the Paper
"Most of us have probably never thought a great deal about the ways in which the typical shopping mall, such as the Galleria, is laid out. We all know that there are anchor stores that are at the psychological (although not geometric) "corners" of the mall, and that in between these anchors are smaller, more specialized stores, most of them selling clothes, make-up and jewelry, with the second most important category of merchandise being items that are sold for the purpose of entertainment, including books and CDs and other forms of recorded music. The third most important single category of stores/merchandise at a typical mall (and the Galleria is in no important way substantially atypical in terms of the ways in which architecture is designed to lead to an increased degree of both the desire to consume and the actual process of consumption itself) is that of the restaurant. "

Abstract
This paper describes the history and significance St. Mark's Basilica. This church is a major architectural and historical "anchor" of Venice, Italy. It details the church's unique architecture, and gives an historical account of how it was built and by whom. It provides an in-depth description of the church, interior and exterior, and also provides excerpts from stories and myths concerning the church.

From the Paper
"It's a given fact that countless great cathedrals, monasteries, and other holy places have been built over the ages as a testament to man's devotion to God. In point of even more practical fact, that devotion was often tempered and blended with a generous portion of servitude to one's feudal lord as well, with the unspoken incentive that one got to keep one's property, position, or even one's life if one gave good service . . . and if one did not, well, things may not go as well as one would hope! But St. Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy, may well have an additional distinction of its own not only as a sign of devotion to God, but as an edifice that stands uniquely in itself as a visual means of atonement for sin, an effort at retribution for what might well be termed a "divine crime " . . ."
