I am trying to organise my bibliography here for Thesis. Can someone please tell me if articles from Magazines like: The Economist are considered primary or secondary sources? I am thinking they are secondary.

Could someone also tell me, as regards primary sources, if I can't categorise them are a certain type of source, is it acceptable to Put them Under Title of Other Primary Sources

Typically secondary, unless you are pulling data (eg economic data esp Economist specific data). Then perhaps primary, but overall best clarify as secondary.

I am very lost. I don't have a clue how to organise my sources.

Are Television Programmes Primary or Secondary?

As regards the magazines, yeah they are informing me about events they are informative the same way the news papers are?
