and like all these countries and nations, and since the end of colonialism, they've been holding in the money for the return of their cultural property. and this is a happy day, i believe, for that people have been that they are going to get some of their objects back for our 26 items. i believe it's an ongoing process and look forward to seeing more of us returning. ah, a quick check of the top stories here now to 0. the un calling for the release of 16 of its local staff, detained in ethiopia. capital i decided that comes into china escalating conflict between ethiopia, central government, and rebel forces in the countries north. as far as i know, no explanation given to us by why these are the staff members are, are detained on the there are 16 remaining in

diplomacy, whom do we appeal to for our people right to survive and the challenge of clarity with can he security to the he seems to be stateless people. what he's going to happen to us is going to be the fate of ferris willful witness. and no one else is. here. we have a responsibility to get a climate story. this november lead us from around the world of gathering glasgow, scotland. com 20. so international climate we are facing a global climate joining the well, the biggest puller has had left with the change they away. hello, i'm richard ginsberg and you're at the listening post where we dig into the coverage and look at how news is reported. here are the media stories we're examining this week, climate change news organizations, fossil fuel companies,

and audiences all need to do better on the story that could mean the end of us. heathy, opium enters a state of emergency. and the government's controlling of journalism, there has turned aggressive violence against muslims filmed by the perpetrators, the latest ugly trend among india's hindu vigilantes. plus the chance roaring in downtown pale al jazeera turns $25.00. we look back at a quarter century of a different kind of news coverage. we begin with the biggest story on the planet, which is about the planet and climate change. a topic that somehow still doesn't get the news coverage it deserves. there are plenty of news cameras at the cop $26.00 climate conference taking place right now in scotland. our focus is on the coverage at other times when world leaders aren't gathering. among the issues, the privileging of perspectives and interests of wealthy nations and big business

over those of poorer countries on the front lines of climate break down news organizations. many of which remain dependent on the money that big oil advertising provides. and some of which, like rupert murdoch's platforms in the u. s. and australia are resistant to the story. fossil fuel companies, masters of the art of quiet persuasion. now using platforms like instagram and tick tock to sell their green washed messages to younger audience. and the audiences themselves, how is it that the prospect of our imminent destruction is not the ultimate in news click bait. our starting point this week is glasgow. leaders gathering it's got the time to tackle this live in a last can't to control global warming for journalists in search of an assignment that matters. the comp 26 climate conference in scotland provides one they're covering the story of our collapsing ability to sustain life. let me take

a last name to start catastrophic climate change for such a slow moving story. it's taken the journalism a long time to catch up, to find the right story, telling formula to off from the reporting still struggles to see beyond the science . to get at the bigger picture, how the topic they are covering connects to every aspect of our lives. it's not a science story at all. it's a story about college him. it's a story about how power is distributed, how governments decide what their interests are. and if you tell his story as a story of people, you will have readers and viewers because everyone wants to know what powerful people are doing and how it extends. and you can tell that story every single day when you're talking about the client, chris, if you just trying to treat it like another news item. oh, and by the way,

i'm the, the planets rapidly sliding into the dustbin. then we're not going to reach people in the way that we need, and this is fundamentally an issue of injustice. this so important the voices from the global self her present and being given faith because we are the ones who are experiencing the claim is crazy. we need far more, really hammering home the message that it's, that the rich nations who are overwhelmingly causing this problem. but it's people who, by almost no responsibility for it, the poorest people on earth who had being hit 1st and worst by it as compelling as that narrative should be the climate change story is up against it . part of that has to do with resources and the principles involved. fossil fuel companies have more money to shape news coverage than media outlets have to provide

or than activists have to contest it. and their corporate propaganda has changed with the types panto and i want to live in part denials of the science have been replaced by softer, subtler forms of disinformation through messages spread by influencers on platforms like instagram and tick tock. the oil and gas companies are obviously no longer denying the climate crisis is real. to do that at this point, the be utterly absurd. so now would have done, they rebranded themselves to become an integrated energy company. scaling up renewables is a major focus. they're painting themselves as trustworthy partners in the clean energy transition. over the last decade, chevron has been to for $1000000.00 on carbon cab your projects, who are committed to $90.00. and you are leading the research into new technology,

and that will help us solve the climate crisis to provide the energy solutions and advanced modern life. now neither of these claims are true, they pay instagram and influences, they pay for content on take talk and many other platforms and often in ways which are really subtle and insidious. yes, it's a reality that we need to drive to experienced many of these locations, but thanks to there's a way to both explore nature and to reduce carbon for privacy is all about aspiration. it's all about, you know, you can lead a good life and we can help you to lead that good life. and hey, look at this fantastic car. you can have the oil industry has a huge amount of money. and it's also kind of built in the remember of travel. we're also coming out to pandemic. so a lot of us missed travel. we want to travel mold, and the oil industry has been very good at kind of using marketing and using fluid

says to tap into our desire to get on the road essentially. and, and they're constantly trying to persuade us that they're on our site, that they're helping us to, to lead a better life. whereas in actual fact, they are pushing us towards oblivion. nancy, when the fossil fuel lobby relies on news organizations, some of which remains supportive of the industry, many of which have simply grown, dependent on it. because no matter what the natural disaster is, hurricanes, tornadoes, acne, whatever climate change did it, or if you did, the supporters like the outlets. rupert murdoch owns in the u. s. and australia fight the consensus on what changes. societies must make how quickly it must make from. the dependence include legacy outlets like the washington post and the new york times newspapers that produce quality journalism on climate change while

pocketing significant ad revenues from oil companies. this network al jazeera benefits from guitars, gas, and oil reserves, and even relative newcomers to american journalism politico axioms and punch bowl news all have their political newsletters, sponsored by big oil, is the united states. last week, they called the c e o. 's and the heads of the fossil fuel trained groups to testify before congress and the chair woman asked you believe that it was ethical for exxon to run a new york times advertisement that down played down, played the risk. is it ethical to spread these lies when they all know full well, that climate change israel and the science is not uncertain? there was one study that showed that there were 5 times as many fossil fuel ads on cnn as there was climate code by vehicle,

strong gas. if you look at the murdock empire room ox news folks here focusing on president biden, after a transatlantic flight seemed to close his eyes for a few minutes during one of the speeches all claiming the situation on planet earth is so dire. resident by and reacting by, appearing to take a nap during a climate speech. chris tom swords that shows that dividing is really a serious my climate and he really knows his hoax. i mean, what he say that what it means to be a journalist and put out that kind of crap ah, for a story as existentially critical as climate change, audience interest has been oddly lacking and for too long that is change surveys and country after country indicate news consumers say they want more on climate change. and reader engagement is trending up. platforms like bloomberg the financial times and gives moto, are all responding with new,

specialized content. but check out the top 10 most popular story list on the b, b, c, the washington post or the guardian on any given day this week. other topics like politics, crime, even celebrities proved more popular with readers than a climate story that could change everything. we've been very well trained over the years to respond to trivia so much political journalism is basically just who's in, who's out. it's like a soap opera. so we expect the news to be a set of june into any station on a day of climate disaster. and listen to what people are talking about. and it is the most ineffable trivia. the whole world is going to hell in a hancock and say, wait a minute shortly back should be the central thing. trust it needs a fairly low. i do think the solution lies possibly in rethinking what news is all who expires on. climate journalism holds popsicle key to this as a way to upgrade to

a generation amtrust group to society that feel very much that uses the really it's nothing to do with them. any, anything, it's all styled to that value. i'm say no. this is a story which affects everybody. the audience for climate stores is definitely increasing because so many more people are being affected by climate catastrophes. we have to reach people who are not necessarily affected directly by her. his floods and wildfires for to explain how all of us are going to be affected. if parts of the world are no longer livable, people need to understand that they're being manipulated by large corporations who have a self interest, which is contrary to the self interest of all of us as members of the human race. exactly a year after war broke out in the northern te gray region of ethiopia, prime minister ob eoc. net has declared

a 6 month state of emergency flow. phillips is on this flow. why the state of emergency and why now he ethiopian cabinet made the decoration after that, take away people's liberation, france, b, t, p. i left gain some strategic ground and threatened to close in on the capital at his abba. the government's messaging has relied on the state if any, to the outlets like fun, a tv, where one security official ethiopians to arm themselves. well, it's not a good list. watch, but not tied to my side. i got my sarah. the prime minister's office also tweeted a call for all capable ethiopians who were of age to joined the defense forces, special forces and militias and abbey all met himself, used facebook to urge all citizens to quote barry, the terrorist t p l f. now that post distance be moved by the platform for inciting violence from the outset of the fighting the be government has had issues with the news coverage . so what kind of reporting conditions are journalists working under now?

various blackouts and bands continue to make it very difficult to get the stories out. but the committee to protect journalists has documented the arrests of several reporters accused of having links with the t p l. s. now those charges tend to be vague to journalists at be privately owned, a hall, do radio and television have been under arrest since last month after airing an interview with a t p. i left official who was contesting the government's narrative around territory. and what are the authorities doing about the international coverage of this story? recently the main broadcast regulator ordered ethiopian channels to stop transmitting content from foreign media. so how do radio and tv which is affiliated with voice of america can no longer at any of the always international coverage, end of p o, a put out a statement saying that the order restricts the free flow of information to the citizens and it undermines press freedom and it sent a chilling message to all journalists in the country and not just journalist

richard. this is a chilling message to all any c o p. o. okay, frank slow. our next report comes with a viewer warning. some of the images are disturbing, which is why we're doing the peace. india, whose population includes around 200000000 muslims, is seeing more and more videos posted on line of violence against muslims in more than a dozen incidents this year alone, mobs of met calling themselves protectors of the hindu face. have targeted st factors. rick shot drivers, even children, those videos of the violence they meet out and film often get millions of views ever since prime minister, no rent remotely. and the b j. p came to power back in 2014. a tax against muslim indians and other minority groups have been on the rise. and if you think that committing a violent crime on camera must mean jail time for the perpetrator, think get the listening posts mean,

obviously robbing now on the wave of anti muslim viral violence in india. and the journalists out to expose it. ah, i've spent the last few years trying to why you're seeing so many videos of why it was in school, while in india, the videos are filmed by your videos. and they can watch that check, but anybody on any of their light bill into what scott that used to be produced and distributed in america picture, the black people being beaten, humiliated, and even kid died on the postcards was normalized violent minorities. and to make sure that those minorities know they could be attacked with impunity. anytime the video, i'm guessing in india, muslims is doing the same job as belinda scott in the video that in india, especially in this year have been servicing with regularity. that is shocking. in

june, a group of men crash and elder muslim man and cut off his beard. in august, a muslim ritual driver is assaulted as his daughter holds on to him. terrified liter that same month and there's a video of self proclaimed hindu activist, beating up a young muslim man selling bangles. yes. before long the video is up online. read it buys for the attention with other variations on the same pin, all racking up views in the millions. there was another video, all off men walking up to a man silly those songs, which is o food item in india, which is an open stole. and because the stole her doll, he luly r u was also told to bring down his door and he did not sell this room either with

it's now become a part done or you see or video will disturb you. night after night, you're all saw, your own living thought of either of it, where the politic feel is defined by this kind of drawn from ism of the section of indian society. then they beat to minority. you have this premeditated at 1st performing the violence, recording the violence and then broadcasting the violence. that video is then posted on social media as sort of to garner community to garner likes, but also to call to violence. the extremists responsible for these attacks are part of the broader hinder or hindu nationalist movement, which has grown in prominence since prime minister in it in the movies might be a genet up id. the b g. b came to power in 2014. the act of his claim to be protecting what decoy that he knew rushed to the hindu nation in which muslims,

by definition, do not belong. we contacted some of the men behind the videos. we managed to speak with one. he insisted he didn't want to be interviewed on camera. up here videos, cuban audi. he had a mock set, get a daily bunch about him about could it help one kick which normally blue circle might the hair or beat the head or r p. he could a he, hannah, mat, a alba, one on the phenomena of committing a hate crime and recording it has grieved right now because they're all

korea avenues with those who do so with the sort of vigilante hindu vigilante groups that are mushrooming all over the healey. rekey, pod, or window, the videos are made by the corporate creator of these crying, and they are sharing it with a lot of bright, we witnessing and india moment of absolute nationalism. yes. ah, and to identify once over 2 or offer one. so as a foot soldier is also to claim a leadership position. many of these activists are also members of internationalized organizations. so it's career advancement in terms of being taken care of. if one performs the lives through these a mob outfits a vigilante outfits, but it is also claiming a leadership position. and then having a following, ah,

the budget and i, a hindu supremacist organization, claimed responsibility for one of those attacks. groups like these have become increasingly emboldened in recent years as have officials of india's leading hindu nationalist party, the b, g. p. many have incited or condoned anti muslim violence in 2018, a b t p minister publicly honoured 8 men who had been convicted of lynching a muslim man to deck before having their sentences suspended. then there's the south style yuki adina, chief minister of india's most populous state. with that, for the in september on the campaign trail for the election, he said muslims had been monopolizing government food dialogue. so go down to supper. i get my head in the mood thought, ha, not good bye. oh, some of them got about you asked you to be shipped to me

under decisions for mission statement. but it's leaders have been conspicuously quiet about this years. speed of anti muslim violence when they have got involved in some cases it's been to blame the victim. like the bangle cellar, the theme ali, once the video went wild, there was a lot about creating a very strong public bush company to be aggressive. oliver, because the next monday for the game on canada, we go because i'm begging that will be lambs for believe to bug john. so i could come up and meet some bases allegations against the the money you say that the money was supporting as a handle and yet big his identification people are ready. john are going to propel here. they might be to police, have at times, been bystanders to violence and failed to take action. and at other times,

police have actually turned on the person who is victimized, but reciprocally. if you look at the kush, me, the muslim, who posts a video of how they are being brutalized, state action has been taken against them. so people who are perpetrators are going free. they are being encouraged to perpetrate people who are victims who are coming forward seeking justice are being further victimized the cause lee, my liskey is a prime example of that. the men who attacked him out on bill when he is in gene charged with molesting the daughter of one of his aggressive a complaint that was only lodged after his authority. his trial could be months if not years a we don't butler months. it's been over the past few years in the news outlets have been ramping up islamic phobic invective. manufacturing use cases of hubs or holy wars being beached by

india's muslims against the nation. yeah, but what i want you to be, i love jock in the sky. so much extra trouble was going to make you a big pool. just get back in time, but i, buddy, talk about try you on the other side of the rising leave of media incitement. a journalist, muslim anonymously alike, doing their best to spend the time, investigating each attack and the complicity of those in power. some very well meaning people tell me their concern for me. i bite me not to go with the story. then we could not be that wireless because in a way, the thing that these boys held the b j b in that message. and then i didn't say that these 3 jacks, but i don't think that we can see that anymore. this is getting mainstream and i don't know if it's my job to chronically what is happening and also documentation

or history for the next generation opinion to see what the country was like in 2021 . and finally, this past monday, november 1st marked the 25th anniversary of al jazeera. it 1st started broadcasting through its arabic language, news channel based in guitar, which launched in 1996, riding the wave of growing satellite technology at the time. the outlet quickly turned into a new source that people across the arab world tuned into it changed the way news was covered in the region. the network now consists of multiple channels in various formats, viewed by millions, it made its news reputation through its coverage of the invasion of iraq in 2003. the recurring wars on gaza, the arab spring uprisings of 2011. and this year, the taliban recapture of cobble will leave you now with a sampling of some memorable al jazeera coverage. and we'll see you next time here

at the listening. ah, mostly he didn't get madam become having enough network loaded. so dishonest with healthy to get a niche mediconnect allows you to physical thought it was lock on faithful uncle sam will had you shopping and i let him know gabby winters the more about them. emily yet with their asthma, well had a hand and pick them and i remember him bother you. i go to bed. and i also making the point that no amount of tear gas up no matter that during strike make the attack i. he can hear the woman mean, she just said, you're here to see if you're here to save me. i'm trying to get out. definitely found a black girl here. oh, this is a good chance. goring in downtown pale,
