it's called the off press freedom around the world. media work is on human rights groups are urging scrolling because present to investigate the kidding and the duction of jen this an orthodontist as well. many people have his out again information that the attorney general's department and the attorney general himself has written to come in at the investigation department, indicating that 3 of the main suspects in the editor's murder are likely to be released because there is not enough evidence to prosecute the case against them. now among the banners, we're seeing missing ag for adjustment. so in justice, we're seeing a g go home. so generally this group of people, gentleness of civil society activists. lawyers, all of them see that things, cons, tooling around completely. i view the eclipse shop when they 1st came out because it was the same attorney general's department who produced these people before the registration earlier. and of course, the granting of bands we have so many cases of the and you will need to and

specially, abductions, attacks and innovation, and moder, i've done list that are still pending, reading for drafted, put so many tickets. and that's so much cool. now that this time around that will be dropped and to see this is concerning this happening. and of course the need to fight for job super day. and the protest is outside the parts that leads to the attorney general's department. wanted to sort of hand over a letter to the attorney general, asking him to make a sort of a public explanation as to his decision to release the suspect. if even now under a new regime, which promise to bring to justice and bring justice to all of those cases. if justice is allowed to be sabotaged under this regime, that they are all implications for the whole. and that is what all that sort of anger and frustration has come out and being always today, been

a fernandez audra 0 colombo. we're using lynch has been commemorating the signing of the countries founding document. daniel white tunnel g day celebrations included a dual service fucking the day back in 18. 14 when the treaty was signed by the british crown. how molly chief protest is turned that box on government ministers denouncing policy seen as rolling back indigenous rights. i mister christopher, looks and is criticized for failing to attend the main survey at a time in race relations under growing strain in a country keeping conditions a life. they will not sit for medium boxes and forget a website. how does that don't come? the most thing 1st is next the i'm increasing power in africa production most,

and that is killable. so to use violence in the country that he's rushes presence in the central african republic, a stabilizing force, or a calculated strategy for dillman. and this is, of course, the continent. they provide security and they take uranium, they provide security and we take time and rushes shadow in africa coming soon on out to 0. the ours of the world remain riveted on gosh, on the images and testimonies of palestinians going home on the stories of resilience looming issue. what comes next? donald trump's team takes over the white house briefing room and takes a shot across the by with the press port in the c plus the block buster game that has thundered out of the chart. walk teaching paging a thing or 2 about how to showcase chinese culture

2 weeks into the ceasefire. in guys, a news has been porting out developments that have been playing out the live across arabic language, media displaced, palestinians, more than half a 1000000 of them returning home to the northern end of the strip. having survived the war siege and starvation searching through the rubble for what remains of their past lives, the images of their return and the most fighters there to greet them. amount to proof that the nation, yahoo government stated war aims have not been met. and that is not going down well with certain segments of it's really society, right? wing media outlets. they are calling it a disaster or humiliation for our right voices and politicians are demanding a renewed offensive. how mos meanwhile is seizing the moment, making the most of it through it's messaging. the question that remains is the one on the mind of every palestinian in the gaza. how long will the ceasefire last and

what will happen if it does? is red wanted a live stream genocide and an a live stream. but what? it was a live stream mess or turn of displace best thing in the historic images of hundreds of thousands of philistines going back to their communities have a great significance and not just for, for the stadiums, but for on a few men. it is the opposite of an x. it is an influx of palestinians, back to northern godsa, a place the is really said these people would never see again, a land is really forces have pulverized and left teen ruins. it makes for an odd backdrop, for scenes of jubilation. family reunions taking place amidst the rubble that everyone knows, conceals even more dead bodies. but for palestinians,

displacement is nothing new. in runs in the family and goes back generations. 3 quarters is of a central all the way to 1948. that notion of a ton is really at the core, the published in struggle. and so when we see these people, despite all its display, this kind of resilience some results to stay on the land, it's really inspirational. but it's also good as sweet because 92 percent of homes and goals that have been damaged or destroyed. and they're also going back to recover the bodies of loved ones that have been trapped under the rubble. so this moment really holds a variety of emotions, but i think it's a moment that will be remembered for a very long time. the images that we've been seeing coming out of guys in recent days, really speak to the resilience of palestinians who have versed everything,

put their lives on the lines to be able to remain on their own land. and this, of course, coming at a time when we continue to hear efforts regarding the ethnic cleansing of palestinians from guys including from none other than us president donald trump. that would be a legal under international law which for bins f mcclin's and trump's musings have even been marked within is the liberal newspaper audits which has produced some questionable reporting over gosh, nevertheless, published this scorching editorial saying at this rate, trump is likely to propose that god seems to be launched voluntarily into space and stuck on mars. are, it's, is the closest thing to an outline unit is really mainstream media space that has

alerts to the far right. where outlets like channel 14 are putting a content like vis, boasts about destroying palestinian homes in gauze. what. what do you mean by that? i fear to buy 2 of us for more just come on, come is come. what kind of gosh, really? there to be mental model that usually come up, i think a lot the a suburb of what's happening inside of the machine, but the there was a comment on is there any chance of 14 and i'm, i'm sure it's um, it's still, it's still a me, it's still be the mode mod shim, a short, long issue or machine with. so i'm not sure lemme shut out, but it's a lot of the, you'll end up the meal and this shows how septic this genocide, the campaign has been from the beginning, a campaign of mindless but of image aiming at the expulsion of millions of philistines. but for the studios did not allow that to happen, and they also achieved

a spoken ticket that would be engraved when the was the 1st thing in memory or ever of setting a precedent for master turn the really incense by it, that palestinians, despite facing 15 months of constant bombardment of losing over 100000 probably palestinians in the process that their baton and they were promised the destruction and elimination of hemma some expansion of israel into more protest in territory. and in gaza that that hasn't been the case. a lot of this really is feel betrayed by the cx 5, particularly those on the the fall, right? they feel like everything they've fault for and the last year in the hall was for nothing. that's a very hot po for, for this right. is society to swallow. there is no cease fire being discussed in israel, the public discourse around it is of a hostage deal. and the difference is that a hostage deal is meant to return the captives and not meant to end the war in the

beginning of, you know, of the war. we heard a lot of talk about the 2 objectives are returning the captives and, and defeating from us as has been possible together. and i think what has developed is an understanding that they are, in fact, mutually exclusive. and that is creating big cleavages within his really society. for mars, what is left of the move one wants to contribute to the after the ceasefire. if reasserted itself in the armed displays of defiance intended to show it has not been defeated. that it is still in control, and by helping the displaced find their way through of postwar wastewater optics matter. and one measure of mazda is gradual re emergence has been in the phase release of these really kept most work carefully choreographed. and for most camera operators, film moment by moment with these really female captives paraded in military

uniforms to remind whoever was watching that before those women were kidnapped. they were soldiers all taking place on a stage decorated with messages in arabic, hebrew, and english, that her moss, once he's released and the outside world to see the captive releases have really been about displaying how massive resilience on our presence and goes. and it's, and you all who promise is ready people. he promised the americans that he would eradicate him, us from gauze, from the face of the call. y'all did look almost the whole concept of family and he hasn't a chief those goals on what, how mouse is doing with these orchestrated release is, is really it's showing it's, it's power showing its presence in gaza. there were certainly a lot of images and stories and these really media about from us reappearing and re establishing itself,

helping people rebuild and find places to live. those images are, are often presented to this really as a cynical attempt by having us to demonstrate its presence and prove that it hasn't been defeated. but i think there's something more fundamental there, which is that if they do want to re establish control, then they will need to help people who was lives in homes have been destroyed in this war. so it may very well have moved from an active work leading to one of trying to, to reestablish governance. what we've essentially seen is an escalation in the war of narratives that on the one hand you have, you know, these really leadership that has been saying that they seek to completely eliminate from us to eradicate within palestinian society. and on the other hand, we have these images that stand in stark contrast to those claims that they have simply failed in their mission to completely destroy this movement. and that it continues to be a very visible presence in palestinian society. journalists based in the

gods who risk their lives to document 15 months of death and destruction and survived was seeing so many of their colleagues skills are part of this story. many have been seen reunited with their families, sometimes lives on the server, definitely touching moments often broadcast across the arabic speaking work the comes with also to him and that's what gets kind of some of those journalists work for algebra networks and nothing. yeah. who government band in israel 8 months ago, but it's really audiences politicians included have been watching l g 0 is output for coverage of the release of is really captives in, gosh, for wayne is that is that she do, i should, i would suggest the look at the kind of go my measuring their cousins to us as the 4 months is really media is really put additions were in

a state of denial. and the assault on, on journalism. the assault on ends is 0 plus part of this process of device, rather than graph. and with those 3 out of these with, it's declining repudiation as a wind and shut down the voice of truth and know that the world has failed to achieve its objectives. they are going to wake up and grappled with everything that they have been trying to deny the, to washington. now, with this past week, journalists were given a taste of the kind of treatment they can expect from president donald trump's new administration. ryan coles has been following the story. the 1st press briefing of the 2nd trump presidency took place, fronted by a 27 year old caroline love it. the youngest ever white house press secretary and right off the bat, she said a few things straight. we know for a fact there have been lives that have been pushed by many legacy media outlets in this country about this president about his family. and we will not accept that we

will call you out there had been some speculation. is the possible changes to the briefing room seating plan? that's the list the media outlets to get a permanent see. and importantly, how close to the action they get to sit. instead, the white house will be inviting, took tucker's bloggers and podcast theirs to sit next to the podium in spots usually occupied by staffers or recognition perhaps of the role those kinds of voices played and present in trumps campaign. one of the more attention grabbing parts of the briefing was this regarding cuts the for an aide that there was about to be $50000000.00 taxpayer dollars that went out the door to fund condoms in gaza . that is a preposterous waste of taxpayer money that was later repeated by the president himself for for conservative media picked it up. do you think? come off squares condoms. no, they make condom bombs. and i'm also flights the condom straps on an explosive and

floats them into israel. it's a dual use technology. in fact, the story is entirely baseless. u. s. government bigger show the of the $60000000.00 a for an 8 spent on reproductive health. around the world. only 7000000 of that was spent on condoms and not a penny if it went to gaza next, right to china. now where the countries, entertainment industry is undergoing a transformation that includes the world of video games, chinese games have long had a reputation for being low quality, quick turnaround games you might play on your phone. about 6 months ago that changed with the release of black miss wilcock. blacksmith is a blockbuster of the game, but taps into chinese folk floor, taking a classic 16th century novel re imagining it, and turning it into a stunning immersive, modern day experience. and that's what makes blacksmith revolutionary the way it bridges chinese mythology and contemporary game. the listening post product and

alpha. now on the video game that indicates china is gaming, industry has caught up with its competitors in japan and the west. and how politicians invasion are reaping the rewards of the page the most show about how long is a game d. p rated in chinese, traditional culture, religious beliefs and methodological stories. it's incredibly engaging because it faithfully recreate the missile config. son, we call from the novel johnny, to the west. this current to and history, a well known town, every chinese parson, regardless of age and 5, knowing the story of johnny to the west since childhood. but when i played black man, i was transported back into that story. so to me, it's not just an old story. it's in your experience the, the,

the runaway success of black yukon rest in this ability to reanimate the story. first told in china 500 years ago, play is, are in most in chinese mythology, a world of heroes, day of spirits and theme that taken on a journey that includes real place. life like renderings of temples and try. the chinese game is who used to spending time in a world typically dominated by stories from the west. it feels more like hard to play as a broad. it is a portal into chinese culture. and that's what makes it a breakthrough. the china is gaming industry. what's really exciting about the keen, black newsome cone is it's a blend of cutting edge technology, intricate game play every deep cultural store and towing. so when a game was 1st launched, i'm back in august of 20. $24.00 is sold millions of copies within days in general,

and billions of dollars and values. if that's huge. um and you know, it's not as popular in china where 70 percent of just sales is based. it's also getting traction globally, which is a major milestone for a chinese game developers. black moves, popularity, and the title of china is a triple, a game, a triple. a game typically has a big budget, a big team behind on a long production site, which is a monica of the games. quantity is graphics, game play, and story testing. these are not the kind of games, but chinese developers that'd be known to projects to will uh, to use the chinese games. you guys have germany focused on games. we shorts, development cycles, lower investments, and foster time. those games have shows a play times and quick monetize ation to us, but they don't deliver rich,

memorable and profound experience. this explains why black makes we called as a aaa gain, a sparks so much discussion. it challenges the stereotype of china as a producer of inferior gains on the go sunday. the chinese gaming industry from the development site has been really focused on mobile games for the last 15 years. china has the biggest mobile markets in the world more than 90 percent of revenue in gaming. and china comes from mobile games and in particular from free to play mobile games and then monetize through micro transactions and ad. so black me flu call was really a departure for that because it's a game that's absolutely not concerned about being free to play. it's a game made primarily for computers and for causal that shows that chinese developers can actually compete with. usually western or japanese players in the space is highly, highly competitive. so this is really a, i would say,

a coming to age moment for a lot of chinese gaming developers and it shows the tech progress under way. and also how fast of china is catching up to global leaders in this industry. china, there's no 2 ways being the most to speak to the plates. the game developers there was this assigned to perfection. that video games are harmful for young people that have an effect on policy, including limits on plates for children. there is also a strict government control and regulation of games production. before a game goes to market, it is screened for explicit and violence content. as one is material that could be at all, it's with the official narrative is coming out of beijing. blacksmith with its focus on the chinese play effect and the architecture has a message the government can get behind when we talk about the the chinese gaming

markets. uh, we definitely need to talk about the regulations and we should not use you for museums. there's definitely censorship. but there's the misconception that the governments will get involved in that and never aspects of, of entertainment in china like me through calling. how the investments from the local government, from hon jones. but i don't think the government, the local authorities ever set down with them and said, okay, you need to do this or you need to do that. they hung to a government is a big supporter. you know, off this, the developer behind the game of black and this will call in terms of providing policy support your investment funding and actually reserving extra costs. do you do place for the games to, to, to grow? so i think the government is coming to this realization that the game is not just a past time. it's actually is strategic industry. we see gaming hardware

sales goes up because of the success of p for her purchasing her work in order to play the game better. and also local tourism, as gamers rush to the sites on which the games the settings are based, especially in the shown c province. so this new model of game plus academy is getting a lot of traction in policy discussions in china. so, so just so put you into it. so this government supports is not just about funding. we can also see in terms of narrative off to the games release. several official media outlets in china, like people's daily online, endorsed black me sweet home. this demonstrates to the game lines with official narrative culture directions and society expectations. this is the, the game trends, entertainment. it became a medium for china as cultural diplomacy. the, that cultural implement outside china has ways being challenging to the government to achieve the platinum, as we call them,

demonstrates this potential inside the sink wash as a full apology. the china is diplomatic approach has shifted in recent years, so moving away from what was once called wolf's warrior diplomacy a time inspired by an action. well, florrie, which came out in 2017 and was seeing the films special forces hero seemed to reflect the more assertive sometimes the aggressive language of chinese diplomat without the approach has since changed. chinese officials have embraced a foster more considered a treat type of vision centered on corporation. and then to start working to sign up for you and show their child center counsel central cooking co co to clean the good. there does seems to be a shift, at least on the margin from the aggressive styles for your diplomacy to a softer,

more engaging south cultural diplomacy. and in that sense, blackness fits as nutone perfectly. it's not just all confrontation, it's not about china, you know, taking on the world. it's more about sharing heard of chinese culture and precisely because that kind of soft power aspect of the game is not heavy handed. it feels authentic that actually contribute it to the games appeal as a cultural product, such as your phone in the face. global life is a loss of attention on how trying to promote its culture, especially with the wolf flores, dollar diplomacy, and recent yes. this approach which presents chinese culture and in fact, boastful hyper masculine manner has been met with a rather an accommodation attitude from west and government media. which is understandable like basically calm represent to move stuff. so and in direct way of showcasing chinese culture. this is in fact

a very sophisticated form of cultural communication. it's allows chinese culture to enter the global playstation in a very natural way. it's a very successful, it's on the ongoing effort to tell china 3 wow. for finally this past week alley abilene, ne, i'm the head of the online news out loud electronic intifada was arrested in sewer at the jail for 2 days and then deported from switzerland. he was in the country having been invited to speak at a conference there about palestine post arrest. i believe now most communications with the outside world were cut off. he was interrogated without legal representation and he says, police accused him of offending swiss law, but he was never charged with the crime. now switzerland makes a big deal about its political neutrality. it is how the country brands itself and the authorities there went after abilene ne,

i'm measuring the same week. that is really presidents. it's soc heard, soc spoke at the world economic forum in davos despite the fact that harris soc, is a monthly is ready. politicians accused of inciting genocide in got it as a reminder, as if we needed one that the crackdowns on criticism of israel. and it's a trust that he's against the palestinians. are still happening even in countries that are allegedly neutral in the shadow of shanghai is moving metropolis, a crumbling fee to provide centuries to tradition for an aging oper true. it's both the stage and the home, but faced with eviction to make waiting for modernization. one oper singer leads the fight to preserve both the refuge and their culture. madam white snake, a,
