Food Safety
A phone conversation captures
One former employee -- a mom, was so disturbed by the spoiled food.
She had her husband call the local health services department.
And it took them five days to finally come out and investigate!
By then all the spoiled chicken had been cooked and served, but the smell still lingered.
At least KFC corporate was concerned enough that they shut down the store for a week to investigate and to retrain its employees.
Supposedly a phone conversation captures the manager telling and employee to cook what she could of the spoiled chicken (just not the worst of it) and then change the dates on the boxes.

Project Part 1: Global Screening and Country Selection
Dr. Okoroafo
MKTG6400-901
I. Introduction
The product, Pampers disposable diapers, was chosen because demand for diapers
should remain steady for many years to come. Although some Eastern cultures are
attempting to potty train from birth, most cultures wait to begin training until children are
anywhere from a year and a half to four years old. According to newlddscenter.com, a
typical baby will go through approximately 2,750 diapers per year.
Pampers are produced in two diaper plants in Pennsylvania and Missouri.
The countries screened include Italy, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, France, and the
United Kingdom. Two of the most important factors of the screening are the number of
births in each country and baby product sales growth. As the number of babies available
for diapers increases, so does the opportunity for sales. Other factors considered include
inflation rates, population growth rates, contraceptive use, and fertility rates. The data used
were found using searches on various sites provided on the syllabus, such as FITA, World
Bank Data, UN Data, and Google.
The country selected after conducting the screening is Germany.

GRANTSEEKER'S SURVIVAL GUIDE (COMPLETE)
This preliminary proposal requests funding from the AAA Foundation to make home modifications for an individual who became paralyzed from the waist down after a baseball accident. The proposal provides background on the individual's career in baseball, from being a star player in little league through being drafted by the Yankees. It describes how he met his wife and learned they were expecting twins, before the accident occurred during a game. The accident left him permanently paralyzed and unable to participate in activities with his young daughters. The funding would help make the home more accessible and take pressure off his wife and family who are supporting him.

Tables provide an overview of campaign contributions and spending for recent election cycles, demonstrating a growing role for unlimited outside spending groups.
“The Economics of Immigration” by Fernanda Santos
The economics of immigration tells a multifaceted story that combines business, social, and political aspects. It is most effectively told through both statistical data and humanizing examples. The makeup of the workforce provides insights into broader demographic and social changes, as well as predictors of economic, political, and social trends. Securing the US-Mexico border is important, but must be done in a way that does not unnecessarily stifle the $216 billion in annual trade between the two countries, which supports millions of jobs on both sides and is crucial to both economies. Border communities aspire to be more than just points of transit and want to capture more local economic value from the large volume of trade passing through the region.
“Where to Find Economic Data”
Economic data can be found from a variety of sources including government agencies, private research firms, and news organizations. The U.S. government collects and publishes vast amounts of economic statistics through agencies like the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Census Bureau, and Bureau of Economic Analysis. Private research firms and news organizations often analyze government economic data and provide context to help readers understand trends.
“Building Winning Business Investigations” by Glenn Hall
This document provides summaries of several investigative journalism articles and stories that have won awards. It discusses how iterative investigations can build understanding over time through episodic reporting. Some of the stories discussed include investigations into Medicare billing, corporate tax avoidance, food safety issues, and medical device recalls. The document emphasizes how this type of investigative journalism can inform the public and promote positive change.
