    “Consider the Source” A Resource Guide to Liberal, Conservative and Nonpartisan Periodicals 30 East Lake Street ∙ Chicago, IL 60601 HWC Library – Room 501 312.553.5760 ver heard the saying “consider the source” in response to something that was questioned? Well, the same advice applies to what you read – consider the source. When conducting research, bear in mind that periodicals (journals, magazines, newspapers) may have varying points-of-view, biases, and/or E political leanings. Here are some questions to ask when considering using a periodical source: Is there a bias in the publication or is it non-partisan? Who is the sponsor (publisher or benefactor) of the publication? What is the agenda of the sponsor – to simply share information or to influence social or political change? Some publications have specific political perspectives and outright state what they are, as in Dissent Magazine (self-described as “a magazine of the left”) or National Review’s boost of, “we give you the right view and back it up.” Still, there are other publications that do not clearly state their political leanings; but over time have been deemed as left- or right-leaning based on such factors as the points- of-view of their opinion columnists, the make-up of their editorial staff, and/or their endorsements of politicians. Many newspapers fall into this rather opaque category. A good rule of thumb to use in determining whether a publication is liberal or conservative has been provided by Media Research Center’s L. Brent Bozell III: “if the paper never met a conservative cause it didn’t like, it’s conservative, and if it never met a liberal cause it didn’t like, it’s liberal.” Outlined in the following pages is an annotated listing of publications that have been categorized as conservative, liberal, non-partisan and religious.

  • HRI FOOD SERVICE SECTOR 2017 Israel
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 12/28/2017 Israel HRI FOOD SERVICE SECTOR 2017 Approved By: Mariano J. Beillard, Senior Regional Agricultural Attaché Prepared By: Jessica Sullum Shay, Marketing Specialist and Bret Tate, Regional Agricultural Attaché ` Report Highlights: The Israeli Hotel Restaurant Institutional (HRI) sector is stable. Sales in hotels and resorts are growing, in spite of the dip in tourism starting in 2015. The restaurant sector is evolving. The number of full service restaurants is stable, though they are facing financial strains due to high fixed costs. Concurrently, the number of restaurants with low-fixed costs, like street vendors and kiosks, are growing. Institutional sales are strong and steady, as a few large firms vie for control of a limited market. 1 SECTION I. MARKET SUMMARY Israel is a parliamentary democracy of approximately 8.75 million people (September 2017 estimate). Of that population, around 75 percent are Jewish and 25 percent are non-Jewish, mostly Arab (Muslims and Christians). The country’s area is 20,330 square kilometers, making it slightly smaller than the U.S. state of New Jersey. Current population growth is 1.8 percent per annum. Israel is a sophisticated, industrialized free-market economy, with a diversified manufacturing sector. Israel’s main export market is the European Union (EU). Israel’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth in recent years has ranged from two to five percent per annum. Israeli GDP increased by four percent in 2016.
