centered about 80 kilometers west of manhattan and in the state of new jersey. it happened really just about 2 hours ago. however, so really the damages are still being looked at and nothing major reported so far. but officials are saying that they need to look at infrastructure bridges, tunnels, pipelines, gas pipelines, and so on. before they can say for sure that no serious damage has been done. the reaction people here have to boost earthquake depends on who you speak to and where they were when it happened. again, it was just about 2 hours ago that it shipped the city and surrounding communities . some people reported being terrified, seeing the wall shake. others had no idea, it even happened. people like me thought it was construction or maybe a subway nearby shaking the building. but it was over very, very quickly that said the potential for damage still out there. and again,

that's why officials are urging caution for people to be on the lookout for anything that looks off or like it might need fixing airports j. s. k. in newark airport, one in new jersey, one here in new york have grounded all their flights as an assessment is made. and one of the tunnels leading from new jersey into new york also has been shut down so that it can be inspected and assessed for safety. reasons that said earlier, warning to stay inside has been taken away by the city of new york. again, they are warning of the potential for aftershocks, but saying go about your business just beyond the lookout for anything that doesn't look right and let us know. okay, thanks so much, kristen, kristen. so let me uh, the for us in new york of the us president is due in baltimore to meet the relatives of workers who were killed in last week's bridge. collab 6 with him and what counts when

a container ship lost pallet and ran to the bridge. us army engineers expect to open a new channel to the pool by the end of the month and restore full capacity by the end of may or the is the only is investigating how saves those 13000000 dollars in cash over the east. the weekend. they managed to brag through the roof of the cash storage and handling facility in los angeles without sitting off any alons, the buildings owners didn't realize the money was gone until they opened the vault on monday to take of say, the break and has all the hallmarks of a professional heist. well that's so for me, tell me cry for the moment you can find much more information on websites that's out. is there a don't come when use continues here after the india report optics, the on counting, the cost of india is economy is on the vines for the nations. 12 gap is whitening

us is spending billions of dollars to clean up its industrial facilities. plus millions of uses around the world will now have to buy microsoft office without counting the cost on out of the era within the midst of national elections. it's news media isn't shop focused. the country has arguably one of the biggest media equal systems in the world over 400 news channels, 800000 newspapers. a booming online digital ecosystem under recently is believe that that should diversity. and in short for its media, a degree of independence. but today many believe that, but it's really all rings of the media, being honest, just of the interest in varying degrees of prime and to send that into the movie. and it's been do nice lift b j p. he's the prime minister of us, but i haven't been to scrutinize the most. he's not giving us the best confidence. how is it being scrutinized?

i think the press confidence as what it means to me, i think has kind of become better, not the media and many believe would clear. russo role and enjoying a, a successive done for me is to movie or how does the media get you and other sales spaces there for media that's big to, to follow those megabytes of outside of the big. yeah. yeah, hold on. so it's me to get keeps because you're lucky such a lot. i'm john patricky. i'm not going to get in this episode of being the port, i will take you inside the world of in the cafeteria and media, starting with a place where i work for close to the and the tv on new daily television. once consider in the last unbiased broadcast, the news for nearly took the this out would be under multiple building in new delhi headquarters to be in the tv news network. was my place of what i did 2023.

it was seen as the last 4000 and tv news. not afraid to speak truth to follow. some of these not been in fall for new to yours. so where, where, where to rid of those jobs going, which were promised, right? that would be the biggest fan to for decades appears at most into propagandist for the more the government. it's the funds by prime minister and the head of the 2024 model of the prime minister has wished all the off position many have become willing loads because what i can do, right, thing i do. all of it gets really bought the product. but what about the, let me let me say that somebody else does it done. some cad, the hot. if it gets basic don't just take it from me. my study of primetime shows on 7 prominent indian networks during 2022. c. as in to me, all these 2nd found that with the exception of in the tv, the largest amount of time was spent targeting the bunk beds of the link body.

muslims focused on, on the beach of these political drive of only a fraction of time spent on more pressing concerns like inflation, unemployment, as levies come on with a colleague for the better part of the took the my counterpart on entities in the channels we had top it, that'd be part of thing. definitely media. how somebody got to be looked. i got a got a good tune to put, you know, if you didn't like by night after night, you did what the media meant to do. all the governments do account. i mean, it's on the washington post by kind of digging back, get us with the company, normative image, what, what part of men do you see that as a joke? did you meet the horse or 50 my got to jo. gimme a guy will see given, didn't think it a game for taking a critical 0 generalist like visual label, press to to buy more the support as inc. done pro gunman use networks game to be card. go the media gold the means lap, and he'd be the idea that these channels are reporting from the lack of the

government the doing part on in 2020. when to government network main, to cover pharma, revisiting the more the administration of new laws, with farmers believe us of the comprehensive, they will take good with that is correct, the up, none the go, the media equal me, right? if i can, i don't, you know, i've been, if you any idea you can confirm, i may need to get some is these guys to my cousin they live in hudson. what's the non pulled out that? the guy? yeah. if he started say i'd be my guy, he would immediately, you'll be, will stay up in a garlic on the top, if not affecting to be uh, you dog. water gets a minute and bigger journalism. uh huh. or was skokie. he needed a bad little word. mean i'm was in the rocking good. these are the that, that to the good the may fall to be. i got the or would the pleasant hill?

this is ryan beaker by jesse van. but the worked on more these digital campaigns when will the 1st band for prime minister that you went on to become see your side of hearty, the company that runs in guest public drug gusto. from an earlier time when the government was able to be held to account, much more predicts much more to now with large lee, the government gets the way you don't see any any further to shift. and one is that the other is, as i mentioned, the general, essentially furthering the routing parties into 1st i going to do a night after night, essentially target my not of these, you don't have division of debates even split it. you don't do that. you don't see that you may 1st of uh, you know, the point that united the government not being criticized or not. i don't agree with that because if you look at some really big policy decisions, we have, the government has had to take

a step back. i'd be in the land acquisition and maybe the farm, but it's like the it is not because you know, they will not take all the different. obviously the strong weiss of learning. i think i'm going to give you guys that, you know, within a lot of those pieces of needs, the media allows you to the government site. the activity ended up targeting the protesters and, and this guiding all kinds of agenda. so i'm coming to the 2nd part of this phenomenon, which is last me, 7 pm to 10 pm perhaps, or maybe lesson on southern 10th. i think it is, it has less to do with the 100 propagation and it has multiple with the manner in which view the thing system as kind of becomes which you may have a certain 4 amount of content has, you know, created this site to applaud the, you'll see that the other things are going on because someone is very loud. someone is very poor. that isn't that argument and hands you'll see, you know what has been happening,

but i don't think it extends to pull it out of deals. and the last point is arguably, while india has an impressive number of media outlets in the past, vicky the editorial slander of an over when the majority of them has shifted in favor of some of the government. those outlets that didn't fall in line like in the tv, have to pay the price. we didn't see of movie coming to bar entity. these phone does what they did on charges, a financial fraud, a temper, the ban on the leaving, the country was later over turned in court. and then in 2023 with national elections a year to we game the end, the game. and the tv was bought out by the a dining room run by a 1000000000 that's cool. considered as close to the prime minister at the global that made global headline as a tipping point in the decline of in gas press freedoms. hold that lease i and a cluster for the journalist design. so enough that i always wanted to ask you this

the, the news i do that i need group is taking over the tv. well 2nd menu with whom it huh. it'd be a lot of, for instance, i didn't know if they did i up, man, i've got a message, you see the code of and it has it. imagine he'd been cut all the brain, then get it put in good aka apo and then i'll say i'm going to have a good good cohort study for 93 x one full time in a document key to according got it on the bottom buddies. number 12, are those megabytes outside of the big yeah. up. yeah, hold on to uh yeah. um that's it to your to meet the man, the credit pay or when covered on contract. got it. okay. i'll come on to, i think we can see, but they've got a couple need to come with me, but i get off the bottom and back again with the easy go. see how many back, how long? because i paid it took i didn't, did the search me to get k p k. i'm lucky. so i'm telling you, i'm john 50. i'm not going to give one a while. i j exist. good. now is this up some of me on the what's that saying was

him on the so the but it's the name right here, john thought talk he uh yeah, so hold on. uh, looking uh this been what that was in a couple of that. i get off to the changes management and the tv appears to have joined design to grow government media with programming like this $9.00, cds to month 9 years of the more the government a strong leader, comfortable and confident in the presence of the most popular leaders the i got up the government on guess that board to say about that can get well can you be a good the media phenomenon, nanny up automated that but the v baseless, i've got to get them to give you a good bit of what he a lot of waste threads about they've got a thing when they look back is the leaving it behind them. halligan. yeah. and because i'm sort of the, the kid was that product. it fairly assigning,

talking medium a when you bought it or do you have a member id? i young in the community that can do has that it's all that good bod media. gotta do that instead of, but i have a bad look of, you need vend goodies that are say, ok, uh, now 5 months school college, sony that it is. and then you get the, uh, uh, somebody's got a new, valuable gang and then you get caught someone's going to name it was on the national. and i'm assuming it was that the national denied on big news. me for a lot, the opposition good. just that as a bag like man, i'm a shot, the kind of denounce good enough or the mean gardener. democracy can different different institutions, school j in getting media and of me and died. has the make of the media. is that old media give you kind of puts a little upset of gotta say aligned with their to hit close with that a yes. some of those that are, are leaking doors are to throw that the bod schedule in nature will be in the us press. freedom has plummeted dramatically in gaz. renting of the 2023 was

breast feed him. index has slipped. 161 out of 180 countries, the louis india has ever been on the index. the pattern of media captured in movies, india is drawing competitive and still are the ones that key or big data or bonds hungry censorship. intimidation. janet is willing to play a game cheerly, this pleasing serious questions about the role that the media explain in india democracy today. they for example, the, the government support or disagrees. he's a rising side of pro movie introduced and think programming is evict if occasion of a long entrenched, liberal bias on the, on the image isn't active. i, i think that is an important connection which has to happen because you had a sort of english speaking elite, who are, you know, disproportionate influence on the dorian perspective, that it was emerging part of the key. and i think that is being collected now because and yet uh, as far more uh, you know, identify content. so go to,

uh, you know, traditions and identity is different from islamic phobia and bigotry and spinning hate, which is essentially a lot of what the media is doing. the courts have cautioned them, it's not necessarily made a difference. isn't that concerned? yes, again, no, i wouldn't link that to another phenomenon which has perhaps the last few years or social media has started to have a disproportionate influence on new york mainstream media. so what was happening is you have these items with use which of finding their way to, you know, mainstream media and, and, and that cycle of just reading it sense. okay. but i think be a one way to look at it is to actually build all the blame on, you know, what is happening with the government a standing. and that is why on this happening, i think that is a very mile big of a short limited way of looking. however, if one looks at the trend and then getting media, the problem will be shifting so much of the programming and pointing to the b g p

as influence doesn't seem to mildly physically in an alarming rise in based on media networks. and the last, the heat, increasing pressure on media owners and you'd room to take a federal government like to opt in boost. you say you to shift away the straw that say, what's the cal? it whiskey? it 1st of all the heck, you still got enough? what i have was good boss, existence, guy, get a better state. this exist goodnight and the pro more. these will make a lot of luck with john's name. it's not just the national media and the government's crosses in the south indian state of canada. we meet for a more drama, the edited of the media, one news network in 2020 pick the channels which broadcasts and the locals money out them language was abruptly taken off a by the government. douglas, normally best themes, all on a sudden out of the blue i'll just and the geno just went off at the tentative vento payables. they shut down was too good by the channels reporting on anti

muslim riots in daily, in february 2020. according to the notice, some of the information ministry, media ones coverage was biased and critical of the rule of the daily police. and if a hindu nationalist outfit the audits, the problem was uh, some things to go get out of reporting on video guides and then media ones that are holding our daily lives because of many of those with this, the reporting on the, on the pretty funny we've been going to the been into the lives of people here all oh for what of who are suffering from this right now because of the content of the story was not in line and it worked out as well. so i'll say no that that was the reason the band will soon give us the channel back on it. but the signal is clear, phone in line or that even the funding press is not exempt. this the least is the story of newton's new movies,

tumbled relationship with india is listings in february 2022. the bbc added, documented critical of that and remove these roland drive. that's it. up to the western state of good job in 2002 of the times movie was chief minister of the region. did the police under your come on to enough to stop the rides? not only enough for an excellent web builder, the bbc had taxed enough the documents he was denounced. let me just make it really clear. we think this is a propaganda piece of design to push a particular discredited medic. online streaming of the thing was blocked, and indian tax officials swooped down on the dairy headquarters of the broad gusta . the leads with the stock is to manifestation of the intensifying pressure is on the button pressed in movies india. amy jasmine was based in danny for 13 years as the se shall bureau chief of the finances die is newspaper t experiences firsthand via those of press freedoms. since even before the bbc date

things didn't change a lot over on the from the time that the loading was 1st selected, one of the very significant changes was that large parts of the country essentially became of limits to foreign correspondents to actually visits in the past 4 in general is generally had fairly free range of movements within india, including to places like kashmir demo, and ne, at a certain point in time, the foreign ministry suddenly sent out a letter which said that in order to visit these areas, you needed official government permission not long before these rules were to force their it's been a lot of interest in cust mirror and there is a lot of very intense coverage. and i think that these rules were reimpose and reinforced as a way of kind of trying to limit this kind of on the flattering coverage

piece deputy this. yeah. st. generalist vanessa doing yet the longest. subbing for the engine list in india. less but dunphy also the government checked into expense the official reasons for the fact we're doing the ext port malicious reporting and traveling through district today. it is without permission to react has denied the allegations. we've seen grades on the bbc, we've had statements from the committee to protect journalists, which says that foreign correspondents in, in guessing they have faced increasing visa uncertainties. restricted access to simulate as of the country, even sets of the population in the database. and for critical reporting in recent years, let's talk words, they may see it, right, that that'd be the same document. nothing new to those produced. and some very, very obvious letting mistakes that that was, what was that justification then for reading, know if you look at what exactly happened was because there are certain facts

issues. and then the baby's, the face that there enough that screwed them even though you're not good enough. or if you are so particular about, you know, the, a little slow, but you have to, you know, all of my life. and i mean india if you want to put it on in your, your word front of the, what is the learning. and then what is the other issues with that that's complex. india's mainstream media brought in like the following this committee to is there any space left for critical journalism in india? india has an estimated 460000000 youtube gives us the most. and the was edged out by networks reluctant to take on the government. dozens of independent might agenda list and commentators have tried the streaming platform alongside a handful of lucky digital new sites. they've been listed as the last output, the public split. it agenda lives in india. the unity office may not go to was a former means being journalist recalls perfect youtube general setup to be usable

platform report stories of oppression fees by a community that is a marginalized people at the bottom of clicking due process system. making me think about cutting. so why don't we have will be doesn't media and the yeah the but i wish here, but anybody movie i but it, but agenda this time will the cost to become the deputy in the i guess i dish have i think i said they had to have both got that operation, odds good. or maybe the c name is nice. when i say that people gosh, for boss goes, okay, a little bit because of ticket costs get larger. what do you have or gaskets? um, where does the best time you want me? because how do i speak to him? come on the aspect of honey i had to stay with the cost to be with you. so what's the physical don't mean to homework stuff make it was easy was conducting with this engine? would that is competitive with the same engine? would that be guessing? probably be covered. i just con, which what does it what to model? yeah, that's a good mix binding contract to our company to follow up with us. what's going on

here? yeah. because of what 20 finding components when they go with this other model, the available golf stop. so today the studio is i me just as election is the government's digital push back is when a new way the move, the government is roofing in scores of online influenza. is to push its not at it like a youtube who goes by the hand of bill biceps with those to $7000000.00 subscribers was bios is that via by step started off of the fitness and fashion and youtube. but as elections there is. the timeline is crowded with interviews with highlighting, well, the government ministers, typical questions like this. are you happy in life? yeah. what's the best and worst things about doing that? you just leave them on, nor does even moments. i don't know, but i presume that i might be one i'm a 100 percent. sure. that even on a geopolitical scheme, that is all of your 6th sense. i'm sure i'll be there to get away. some of my name

is doug. some really good. my pretty good covers certain books are buried in the bios. the interviews, attending details. some of these recordings are in quotes, collaboration with mike got a government agency. in addition to pushing his own narrative, the government is also collecting down on critical voices in the name of fighting this information. it is introduced to cd the stringent new laws, including the setting up of an official fact jacob, which was bet online journalism about the government. any force that i found to be fake news. we have to be taken down. come to the government fact take information about it says, surely that's a conflict of interest. so was most the, what is the government saying they're saying that if you haven't reported something wrong, right. and then it has a certain consequence and level as intermediary to get ahold of that. and then you'll still have to be close to the courts,

the boy. and if you feel you're in the wrong, i'm going to go to the next. but that is effectively the, the definition of temperature that the government then becomes judge judy and executioner. and they're getting on. yes, you can down with the internet at all for us. now. it is the media housemate, is it the they mentioned you lived, this is less than what you have like. we have a history here in india and that information is video will be missing. but it and misrepresented and i mean the public office. so i know how to do things. what is elections name? the cheer leading on that end of the movie has these to fit on in dest, primetime use for the prime minister himself has the mean. the news from questioning the hallmark of his lopsided relationship with the news media in his decade in office. he is not at this to sing the best confidence and they caught putting in time in his step. instead, he prefers softball interviews to select taxes, including to funding food, stuff. i'm ready for them to be on coffee.

got got a good opportunity. give me about a set of thinking mindset. i think i'm but was just going to pass it. thank you. me . i'll be in the energy up guessing they've got the visuals of the bm which come in the form of slicking edited videos. i'm only teasing you provided by the government. all the ruling party doing and questioning media. but my content is that, and i think he's the prime minister was, but i was going to scrutinize the most practically you and them. and when he's not giving us the best confidence, how is he being scrutinized every day with this? but as i was asking him questions that i had on social media on was that's very different to actually being able to austin face to face with you shortly. and bought into the democracy, but i don't say the manner in which which he communicates right when he's communicating directly with the people to to,

to it or to facebook various more talk to who that parts on. yes, i think the, the press confidence as the main store, i think has kind of become better not you see being in this evening, the thought the boss is not going to be good enough thought i'd journalist if not side on news and good. it's not found out that it's not, not on media. com malick this even if i could use this get the asked me vx upcoming, but due to not only the bodies, if we did the new one, but keep i barely keeping in just a minute. we did not event anybody else to take your skill. bob, be of them will be getting the young lady to support the media and then go the favorable covers. need the focus come with global oper oper, as just simply on how to even size can move the supporters say his performance minutes. the blowing coveted you to see by virtually every metric, though it's evident that the indian media landscape has largely been captured by the pgp. and i'm questioning compromise. the assembly line of journalists are doing

spaces to just children, eyes, the government, and it's green. a put that in there, moving in and be able to position as he makes a bit of fucked up as prime minister is the biggest over the election yet in history. the biggest democracy, both its own epic showdown in this final episode of speaking the port finally off the prime minister and the movie elevated india global baez's file. the 4th will be take a long room under the microscope with them. and how much is facts and how much is fiction to be in the port box for? oh, no. does he done? business latest is sponsored by him to like global your real estate destination in due by the

business lasers to sponsored by him to like global your real estate destination into by s pain just closer to recognizing it. palestinian state prime minister petro sanchez, is that the forefront calling for israel 2 respects international humanitarian law
