This article talks about taking to task the lobbyists of Chicago politics. Lobbying and Lobbyist are a big part of the political system, but also are the reason people are skeptical when it comes to politics.

In all things that matter and can be and have been discriminated against, I read this article and laughed, not laughing because its funny, but because of the hysteria associated with not hiring someone because they haven't had work for awhile.

Article from 1997 that talks about exaggerated images and profiles in advertising, commercials, and campaigns. I thought it was fitting for what was discussed this week

Drug companies sponsoring human trials of possible new medications have ethical responsibilities to study participants and to science to disclose the results of their clinical research -- even when product development is no longer being pursued. Maybe this will lead to more improvements in modern medicine.
