5:34 pm
back from the brain. still on the air, the polish 24 hour news channel that remains in the governance crosshairs. and the summit that may prove to be our last chance to avoid climate arm. again, being honest would mean admitting that we're failing the internet comics who unlike our politicians, are telling the story strange africa, the 2nd most populous country, ethiopia is entering a 2nd year in a state of war. it is a conflict about power pitting prime minister. i'll be mad and his allies on one side and the to grind people's liberation front, the t t l f on the other. according to the united nations, the risk of ethiopia descending into a widening civil war is only to real. there are reports of heretic abuses committed by all parties. there is an accompanying information war that feeds off division and hate speech playing out online by blocking communications as well as access to
5:35 pm
the degree region. the government has helped create the kinds of conditions in which disinformation can thrive. platforms like facebook have made things worse by failing to get a grip on the proliferation of hate. and now international news outlets, especially those who reported on atrocities committed integrator, i are feeling the heat over their coverage. it is a combustible mix in one of the most ethnically diverse countries on the continent . our starting point this week is to give me a complex story of conflict anyway, the atrocities committed by all sides, including a sustained assault on truth, the country of 115000000 people, more than 90 ethnic groups and 80 language where multiple news outlets and platforms cannot even agree on what to call the story they are covering. is it
5:36 pm
communal, fighting before ethnic or the civilian casualties or victims of war crimes or story fueled by hate speech and misinformation that threatens to tear the country apart and the information, or is, is everything to this conflict? because ethnic cleansing is in inclination because you have to convince people that the existence of this other ethnic grouping somehow is an existential issue for that. so a time that we've seen ethnic cleansing, or we have seen conflicts that bear the hallmarks of genocide, we're talking about competing narratives. and what we're seeing, man is the modern day tools, facebook and twitter being used to perpetuate those competing narrative. the information conflicts and the physical conflict are feeding into each other, sometimes hates each end. disinformation or kind of reflecting the conflict on the ground. and sometimes they're fueling, and it's, it can be hard to know which is which now in dispute
5:37 pm
a news narrative. the dates back to this time last year and the height of the pandemic. when the government in addis ababa postponed national elections and order that the local government into dry, ignored federal forces into guy were attacked by the t p l. f. the to gripe people's liberation front line, which called it a preemptive strike. the government in attis called it causal. some of the rhetoric has been scary, including from prime minister i'll be off met with when are be used similar language on facebook urging ethiopians to bury the t p l f . facebook deleted that post for inciting violence, but other posts just as in century, are less likely to be taken down by social media platforms that are far better at policing content posted in english than ethiopian languages. large i was told,
5:38 pm
with commander was another german village. but a lot like the, like youtube, facebook, twitter telegram they talk, one of the social media platforms are come perfect here. content online that is calling for violence that is calling for the extermination of 2nd and 4th majority of the funding is coming up from bit from the diaspora. so sitting out of their homes, washington dc and london and stuff on is, are not people sitting out of ideas or you know, or mentally that are, you know, putting not just lose information in this information that we're seeing. just last week we saw accounts with massive platforms on facebook and on twitter posting things like the war is not with the invading printer from te dry. but with the cy, next you, once you're death, suggesting that the spies are everywhere, that enemies are everywhere. and there was another major media personality who made
5:39 pm
this bizarre chilling argument that to grind should be incarcerated on mass, like the americans did the japanese during world war 2 dispersed, in particular, individual is a journalist on one of the 2 in satellite tv station. so he sat, this is somebody that has thousands of followers and he's content with shaped voice and 6000 times. and the impact that has a stacking of people not only shaded but also copy, paste it. and he's content and we've seen no reports that grant and i'd be tele, being rounded up for neurologist and we're looking, you know, counselor to, to i in unknown locations to the end of 1st the response of the platform. this is was also equally problematic where they took their sweet time to take this content down. i got the information was playing out on social media, inevitably affects mainstream outlets. tens of thousands of protesters were on the streets of addis ababa last weekend, complaining about the news coverage on cnn. bbc and al jazeera over what they
5:40 pm
called an anti government vice berlin. a see, you press secretary to ethiopia as prime minister texted us on whatsapp saying most international media have chosen to go with a skewed narrative from the beginning, shaped by the t p l. f's, propaganda machinery. so you also sent us this screenshot of a c n n story from last week. the network reported to graham forces were closing in on the capital. when so you, me says they were still 400 kilometers away. it shows footage 1st scene in a report from 6 months ago. so you said the story caused hysteria and panic. but many of the attacks on international journalists go beyond questions of accuracy. they are targeted person and designed to stifle reporting of alleged war crimes by government forces including mass killings and rapes. it's really
5:41 pm
important that when are requesting full shot, we are held to account that isn't what this is identifying. this is about making things so uncomfortable that we start reporting cnn, cnn, or cnn journalist. we are journalists in florida. they are now take the gacy and information against genesis. so targeting our credibility targeting our story telling they started showing clips of me personally on state television, inciting, violence, cope. and so i have had people kaufman's people genuinely have been incited to believe that i am my team and other janice. i intentionally dismantling these european state, but we are threats to the existence of ethiopian state. ah, the effect on journalism has been telling, chilling when we sent out interview requests for this story. we got responses like
5:42 pm
this one from a newspaper editor in atis. i would have liked to do the interview, but it is too dangerous for ethiopian journalists to talk. how things have changed? abi augment, came to power in 2018, made peace with error, trade, and freed opposition, figures activists and reporters. the previous regime led by the t t l f had j prime in the following year, he was awarded the nobel peace prize with each passing news development in ethiopia . the nobel committee's decision goes back under the microscope. as for the t p l f, the party and it's paramilitary forces, they should not be mistaken for innocence either. ah, gala from, he's not a victim of this war is a perpetrator, one of the pressure to swap, and you get used to be the one that used to discredit turn. that is the one that
5:43 pm
had arrested. all of the journalists in the country was the one that had kicked out all is shortly and weren't journalist in the country was the one that 1st shut down the internet. this n b, i'm there. very good. have to put jane themselves to be yeah, the defenders of freedom, but they're not. ah, abby came to power and a wave of popular protests that were lead time youth move men, spy nationalist movements, primarily from the order mir region. e famously won the nobel peace prize for making you said eritrea. that piece deals now being looked upon with more suspicion given our trans involvement in the conflict. and that was where things began to fall apart when a lot of the, the rhetoric around the law and order operation as, as abbe called, it integrated was very racial and veering towards hate speech. we were very
5:44 pm
slow to pick up on that because this was a nobel peace prize. the halo surrounding abbe protected him even when it was very clearly genocide or rhetoric. and i think we really have to ask ourselves, what getting those kinds of prizes bequeathed upon us, how it distorts our ability to except that actually yes, this person may have the ultimate weston stamp of approval. but he's falling short for his country for his people and for the continent ah, older greece now where a routine press conference turned into headline news after showdown between a journalist and a prime minister at the podium may not walk us through what happened in athens. it started with a question on refugees and migration from a dutch journalist in burg,
5:45 pm
bogo, who lives in greece and covers those issues. her question was directed at the greek prime minister, kodiak smith. douglas, when at last will you stop lying, lying about the push backs lying about what's happening with the refugees in greece, please don't insult mine night or the intelligence of all the journalists in the world. i understand that in another lunch, you have a culture of asking direct questions to politicians, which i very much respect. what i will not accept is that in this office, you will insult me or the greek people. there was mister dawkins suggesting that asking direct questions of politicians is somehow a foreign concept increase. things just got worse from there. have you visited the new camps on our islands? have you been to some us yet? no, you have not been too much. i don't please you have not been you have not been almost a greek island where
5:46 pm
a so called my contraception center opened recently. boca was the 1st journalist to report from there. she describes it as a prison quote, a barren wasteland of parched scrub gray cement buildings, iron gates and barbed wire. we've also seen those reports on the illegal push back of microsoft, the towing of refugees and their boats back out to see by the authorities. the greek said they're investigating those allegations, what the prime minister have to say on that. not very much and neither did much of the mainstream media increase. now many of them like the writing committee, me or put them on are supportive of the government. a lot of their work on this story has delved into burgles reporting her personal life. they call her a pro turkish agent. one newspaper put with him. i even slammed her for having, quote, buckets, tiny servants who walk her dogs daily. quick journalists showing us where their loyalties lie. it looks like it. yeah. ok, thanks me. tv and 20 for the most popular television news channel in poland is celebrating 20 years on the air. it was the 1st 24 hour news channel launched in
5:47 pm
the former soviet bloc. a privately owned independent network. tv and $24.00 is not afraid to go after the polish government, which puts it on the opposite side of the fence. as the state on broadcaster t v p. shortly after the populist right when law and justice party, known by it's polish acronym piece, returned to power in 2015. it conducted a brutal takeover of the public media. this year piece set its sites on tv and the network is owned by an american corporation discovery in theory that should keep it safe. given that the u. s. is a major ally of poland, but the appetite of peace and his leader yet suave kuchinski to control the polish media landscape, seems to have few limits for listening post flo phillips now on an anniversary, overshadowed by a fight for survival. ah,
5:48 pm
going to set the valley for when we launched the 24 in august, 2001, lots of people thought we would fail and we were working in a building steel and the construction. it felt a bit like a guerrilla warfare that at the water had the capacity to con that us monica, or in, if you know political boom vehicle stuff, new person, i was pretty pessimistic about t. v in 24 in the beginning. would there be enough news in poland to report 2474 and worthy enough people in poland. interested in yours to walk you through too much in it was a gamble, a big one. a 24 hour tv channel dedicated solely to news in a country used to getting its information from radio or the nightly bulletin on the popular public broadcast t v. p. services on monday, the 21st it wasn't clear if t v and $24.00 was gamble paid off. it made him broadcast on the 9th of august,
5:49 pm
didn't get a huge audience. but just 33 days later, this happened sort of, i just want to split up to throw in all it does with those in it. and other than avenger, meal, southern, your delicate. you don't see a consequence if you got this other good. you're a huge tragedy. and at the same time, the most attractive television event in history to say was a godsend for t. v in 24 is an understatement, doxygen q. then just days after $911.00, we had another big event. the networks 1st election lot. that's number 15, acres, 30th at once. the station a covered both a major global terrorist attack and the biggest domestic political story. it was ready to handle anything. got him in judge of eustace o t. v and 24. never looked back. 20 years on for many polls. it's the go to place the news and commentary. i mean, you mentioned with, in large part it's leading viewing figures of because
5:50 pm
t the n 24 doesn't shy away from telling it how it is. unlike the public broadcaster to be p, which is more of a mouthpiece for peace. the willing nor injustice party t the n 24 seldom pulls its punches. dating right back to pieces, bust in pounds. new dividend i would observe. they never got on in 2008. he's announced a boy caught of tv and because it said the network was guy who list it lasted about 6 months. thank you. so we're going to proceed. boycott was a result of the so called beggar tapes. the long justice party was accused of political corruption when trying to restore majority in parliament to try and prove this. t. v and journalists asks an opposition, m. p renata beggar to secretly record her meetings with peace representatives with
5:51 pm
the mother levy and was able to show a belated example of political corruption and that army asleep didn't earn it any favors from peace from their relations. got worse with every program. scott, every question and with come 2015 piece returned power. high up on its agenda was a plan to change poland media landscape potty leda, yada swath kuchinski borrowed a page from his hungarian counterpart, victor all bands, playbook, stifling opposition. facilitating takeovers of news outlets by business people loyal to lauren justice and changing the law pieces 1st, target was t, v p. the public broadcaster was brought to heal through the purging of journalists who were replaced by loyalists. but independent broadcast is like t v, n were beyond its ground and as the political scandals kept on coming,
5:52 pm
the coverage between t v p and t v n looked a lot more different than the one letter in that names would suggest to the of travelers covered the one door when the lord justice party took power, they began their assault on the public broadcaster. yes, but we thought they would grab control with the teaspoon. they used the ladle and spread over it since become a propaganda mouthpiece. and that context is fundamental to understanding how t v in 24 operates today. devion 24 has always been objective. it doesn't matter who governs poland. it has always held those and power to account or not. and so i ought to provide you put out there uncovering the truth is always uncomfortable. food dos. it affects among some of our bigger stories. was the bose ill that bodie sh neon. as a group celebrating he lives birthday ha ha ha ha ha, ah paul. sally government officials criticized and tried to belittle this story,
5:53 pm
claiming it was the state they even set up an investigation in an attempt to smear our journalism. but then there is this so called envelope election, standalone corporate millions had been spent on an election that never happened. that was our story much ago didn't cover when that election did eventually take place and peace. one, again, this news room was next on the parties head list, rather than celebrating a double decade, t v n found itself countering a double attack. firstly, the broadcast regulator decided to keep the renewal live tv and 24 license on hold for the better part of 2 years, making the channels sweat. secondly, piece proposed a new law in parliament, banning polish broadcasters from being owned by anyone based outside the european economic area. one of the broadcasting regulator nor piece responded to our questions diary please, but the party has plain the law is designed to prevent adversary's like russia or
5:54 pm
china from taking direct control of a polish network. yet the only network affected so far is american out t v n. can you hold on us? what are it hasn't been easy. the talent was unprecedented rebel. the danger was more real than ever before. like josh trashed to who jose austonia, which most of the cook, joe, not those boesky business man, only been jury merely act yourself with the thought. so should you have the delivery, zip, cost of watson and every government and the current one in particular, is tempted to discourage the media from covering certain subjects. however, it is our right to have the freedom to report the news independently. this is what we stand by for casa, but it, the gosh, it's rama vans on or knowing the t v m belongs to an american corporation. we all thought it was a haven that it was impossible for it to be threatened. how wrong we were. suddenly
5:55 pm
this american investment was at the point of collapse, the possibility shook us. we thought if they were going after t v n, they could go after us as well and scenario, or a bang that see my deal furniture bookings. i've seen the scenario organisation of putin ization of the media looked like it was becoming a reality rapid such polish journalists rallied in solidarity more than a 1000, signed an open letter, defending clean media. t. v and supporters took to the streets there placards turning the v and t v n into the victory side and victorious. they were for the time being. peace is foreign. ownership law remained stalled in parliament and less than a week before its license expired. after 594 days in a state of regulatory limbo, tv and 24 was finally granted an extension not almost not so however, a damocles sword. now hanging over the networks, another c, v and license t,
5:56 pm
v and 7 expires next year. and is potentially more serious because it's a big terrestrial channel, and it needs a polish license. that gives the regulator more ammunition against its american owners discovery. so the threat hasn't entirely gone away news upon him. you know what he was could have a volume for peace. there has to be a permanent wall, a permanent enemy, even if the party backs down for a moment. it's a tactical retreat to wait for the right moment to strike again. every polish citizen knows that when those in power say we will have some influence over the media already. that's dangerous. but looking at what's happened to t, v. p or the regional chris pulse node actually means we will have huge influence, but almost flooded reversal because this is our gina loan just as things that if you have the media, you can control people and it's trying really hard to limit press freedoms to unify the coverage into one voice t v and 24 is an alternative,
5:57 pm
a counterbalance to singular coverage. i hope it stays that way. and finally, the cop $26.00 climate summit in scotland is now over 2 weeks of talks, photo ops and speeches, some of which described the meeting as humanities last chance to avoid a total climate catastrophe. the happy talk has world leaders calling the summit a success. they have agreed to a variety of measures that would reduce global warming. the reality is most of those agreements are totally non binding. and even if implemented, scientists say they fall far short of what is really needed. political leaders have made and broken the same kinds of promises before. so where does that leave us with the australian comedy news outfit, juice, media, giving us a glimpse of what it would look like if politicians called the climate crisis. what it really is was the here at the ocean post. hello. i'm from the government with an
5:58 pm
update on how we're handling the climate crisis. we know you're all counting on us to solve this problem. so humanity can keep enjoying its favorite pastime, continuing to live on this planet. the good news is we've promised to reduce our emissions. and if you take all our promises and add them together, that puts us on track for still very much by 2050. and that's why there's a huge gap between our promises and where we need to be. we don't talk about that gap because that would entail a complex process called being honest, being honest would mean admitting that we're failing and we can't do that cuz then we'd have to stop failing. net 0 by 20. 50 means that instead of being honest this decade, by taking this path, we leave the being honest part to the last minute by taking that path instead, as you can see, both lead to net 0 in 2050, but they're very different journeys because this path adds this many emissions to the atmosphere and that one adds 3 times as much. this has been
5:59 pm
a message from your local government franchise. good by authorized by the department for blah, blah, blah. ah, a with a, with all counting the course climate change is reshaping this a hill. food insecurity. cruise on the pandemic leading to
6:00 pm
a rise in violence inter are the drove ravage, central valley and california that provides vast amounts of food for the us. but for how much longer counting the cost on our al jazeera. ah, this is al jazeera. ah, hello, this is the news our on al jazeera, fully back, the ball live from our world headquarters in don't coming up in the next 60 minutes . protesters riley outside finishes parliament calling for an end to recent measures imposed by the president. the sign of libya's former leader mark adoptee registers as a candidate for december's presidential election. also this, our russian president vladimir putin offers help to resolve.
