“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. -

The Civil War in the American Ruling Class
tripleC 16(2): 857-881, 2018 http://www.triple-c.at The Civil War in the American Ruling Class Scott Timcke Department of Literary, Cultural and Communication Studies, The University of The West Indies, St. Augustine, Trinidad and Tobago, [email protected] Abstract: American politics is at a decisive historical conjuncture, one that resembles Gramsci’s description of a Caesarian response to an organic crisis. The courts, as a lagging indicator, reveal this longstanding catastrophic equilibrium. Following an examination of class struggle ‘from above’, in this paper I trace how digital media instruments are used by different factions within the capitalist ruling class to capture and maintain the commanding heights of the American social structure. Using this hegemony, I argue that one can see the prospect of American Caesarism being institutionally entrenched via judicial appointments at the Supreme Court of the United States and other circuit courts. Keywords: Gramsci, Caesarism, ruling class, United States, hegemony Acknowledgement: Thanks are due to Rick Gruneau, Mariana Jarkova, Dylan Kerrigan, and Mark Smith for comments on an earlier draft. Thanks also go to the anonymous reviewers – the work has greatly improved because of their contributions. A version of this article was presented at the Local Entanglements of Global Inequalities conference, held at The University of The West Indies, St. Augustine in April 2018. 1. Introduction American politics is at a decisive historical juncture. Stalwarts in both the Democratic and the Republican Parties foresee the end of both parties. “I’m worried that I will be the last Republican president”, George W. Bush said as he recoiled at the actions of the Trump Administration (quoted in Baker 2017). -

Johnny Isakson (R-Ga)
LEGISLATOR US Senator JOHNNY ISAKSON (R-GA) IN OFFICE CONTACT Up for re-election in 2016 Email Contact Form http://www.isakson.senate.gov/ 2nd Term public/index.cfm/email-me Re-elected in 2010 Web www.isakson.senate.gov/public SENIORITY RANK http://www.isakson.senate.gov/ 33 public Out of 100 Twitter @SenatorIsakson https://twitter.com/ SenatorIsakson DC 131 Russell Senate Office Office Building BGOV BIOGRAPHY By Eun Kim for Bloomberg News Johnny Isakson began his congressional career by assuming the seat vacated by Republican icon Newt Gingrich. Even so, the senior U.S. senator from Georgia continues to get his conservative bona fides questioned despite consistent support by fellow Republican office holders and his rise in the GOP ranks in the Senate. In the 114th Congress, he assumed the chairmanship of the Veterans Affairs Committee, and his committee portfolio also included seats on the Finance, Foreign Relations, and Health, Education, Labor and Pensions panels. He also retained his membership on the Ethics panel, where service helps a senator build a reputation as a team player. When he announced plans to launch his 2016 re-election campaign -- in November 2014 -- Isakson flanked himself with Georgia Governor Nathan Deal and other top party leaders from the state, which may provide some inoculation from critics such as the small-government, low-taxes Club for Growth and the Eagle Forum, which supports “conservative and pro- family men and women.” “I’m a known commodity in this state,” he declared at a news conference describing why he deserved a third term. “All you’ve got to do is Google my name and you can find out everything I’ve ever done -- and everything I haven’t ever done.” Just around the same time, the Conservative Review gave Isakson a failing 46 percent “liberty score.” The group also placed Isakson on its 2016 primary “hit list” of lawmakers it viewed as moderate.
