promise edition of the lead story. refugees in jordan. banned apps to prevent sexual violence in india but we begin in germany where article one of germany's basic law states that human dignity is inviolable dominic blow believes a life lead in dignity means being able to wash even if your own lips also. go into the toilet taking a shower there normal things for everyone but how can you do this when you're homeless it's not so simple. dominic clone lived on the streets for 10 years always on the move looking for something to eat somewhere to sleep he says it was a life without dignity.
12:06 pm
dominic was 16 when his mother threw him out the streets of st paoli became his home in the red light district of hamburg. when we beat each other up for a sleeping bag it's a fight for survival and then there's a sadistic violence and contempt where people come in they don't treat you with dignity but like dirt. they pee on your sleeping bag or batter us something there might not be a tomorrow maybe someone will set me on fire beat me to death you end up living just for the here and now and trying to stay alive. yet dominic's got his high school diploma and volunteered in a clothing to pay for refugees people even worse off than him he sees this kind of thing all the time police wake up a sleeping homeless man and tell him to move on. this is also a question of dignity cool among us who sits down somewhere at lunch time. to be
12:07 pm
approached by 3 police officers and you see how they put on gloves because they're disgusted that's no way for people to treat each other. dominick is working to offer homeless people some dignity he's collecting donations to pay for a shower bath a bathroom on wheels with a dressing room full of clean clothes he learned what hygiene can means were person when he was living on the streets. body and soul go hand in hand at some point if you're physically dirty you turn inwards and feel in the end that you yourself are dirt has a lot to do with dignity and feelings of self-worth these are things that are lost on the streets i hope this bus can help taking showers to people who need them. dominic got his life in order he's 30 now and for the 1st time his existence is
12:08 pm
fairly secure he has work he has goals. and he has friends most importantly he says it's up in the fall and although i have an apartment and i appreciate what that means for me it's a luxury to be able to sleep in my boxer shorts or to wash myself whenever i feel like you know i need a shower but it's not. that many people have dignity and that's inviolable and that should apply to everyone washing is a large part of that. next we're going to jordan where over 2000000 palestinians live in refugee camps their situation is worse and considerably since the u.s. stopped all its funding to the united nations palestinian refugee agency. 27 year old i innocently runs the refugee camp or he was born and raised it was

12:19 pm
coming up. you probably know pinocchio the public with the knows that grows longer when he lives we'll look at the science of deception. lies more convincingly men or women and who does it most often while the study came up trumps. and female male differences are the subject of this stop this research she heads germany's 1st institute for gender but said. a familiar scenario yesterday there was disagreement in the office today you greet your colleagues with a smile over your feeling far from friendly dissimulation yes but it's good for social harmony say research has other kinds of lines do the opposite though like when someone spreads false information in the base known for they are at fake news maybe u.s. president trump according to the washington post he has made over 10000 false or
12:20 pm
misleading statements since taking office. donald trump frequently complains long and loud about faith. and yet what you want us president himself is a master when it comes to spreading fake news. his preferred platform is twitter and fake news is part of his communication strategy he fires out tweets fast and furious but many have little or no basis in reality like the tweets from the summer of 2018 in which he accused google of being biased against him. for years according to trump when obama was president google had promoted the state of the union address but he said the tech giant stopped doing so once he moved into the white house. claim was false. but how will this fake news spread via social media and how does it gain influence how does it bypass
12:21 pm
conventional media channels and cross national borders and how can fake news be corrected. unicef a company based in cologne specializes in media analysis. here they traced help donald trump's google tweet spread. head of research voice leto who is fascinated by the subject because never before has there been a president who deploys false or misleading claims in such a targeted manner how successful is donald trump and why does he do it is because he doesn't care whether the lies exposed the main thing is that his own political camp his own supporters believe what he says that his chief goals to further mobilize voters who are well disposed towards him anyway and to create an alternative public sphere to be established media systems would meet interesting.
12:22 pm
trumps many twitter followers guarantee him a large audience his attack on google was seen 4500000 times it was shared 40000 times and liked 108000 times. there was just as. dissemination of a tweet you can see that there was a range of reactions re tweets and online articles about donald trump's tweet fake news spreads very quickly it's frequently picked up and shared most rapidly by his supporters. get tired of it the 1st media correction usually appears quite quickly but in this case it took an hour and a half until the 1st journalist it was someone at buzz feed exposed that as a lie. in 2017 donald trump didn't hold a state of the union address as is normally the case for
12:23 pm
a newly inaugurated president trump's 1st state of the union address took place in 2018 and google did link to that on its home page but the rebuttal only got $3003.00 tweets that's 12 times fewer than the read tweets of trump's original. vats the general pattern fake news always spreads more than the rebuttals partly because it always has a head start. in the mean time traditional media started to pick up the issue with all its claims and counterclaims 1st in the united states and then worldwide trump achieved the maximum amount of attention with a minimum of effort. to do so. because of his huge twitter presence the media can't ignore him he manages to set the media agenda via his twitter feed spirit. trump kills 2 birds with one stone on the one hand he can get his supporters on side on certain topics at the same time he
12:24 pm
forces the media to report on those topics and if the reporting is negative well he just brands that. fake news. by the way our brains can grow accustomed to lying at 1st we have a bad conscience there's a strong reaction. but scientists have found that the more often we lie the smaller the reaction. telling tales is nothing new as history shows. having fun by playing tricks on people ringback is a pastime probably as old as humanity. when people rarely invest as much time and effort in a practical joke as was the case here. in october 869 workers
12:25 pm
digging a well on a farm in new york state came across the fossilized corpse of a 3 metre tall giant a scientific bombshell proof that the earth was once populated by giants just as the bible says. it's only took a few weeks for scientists to expose the giant as a forgery. a chicago artist had sculpted it out of a block of gypsum for new york tobacconist george how. very did just some statue in 868 a year before its discovery. paul wanted to spare no effort to get one over on his parish priest who took the bible all too literally it. was. to give it its stony fossilised look he even pierced hundreds of thousands of tiny holes into the gypsum.
12:26 pm
but unfortunately not all pranks are as harmless as that quite often someone is trying to enrich themselves with their antics. one especially audacious fraud was perpetrated by bohemian con man victor last week in 1025 he sold the eiffel tower to a scrap merchant ok the tower wasn't very popular among parisians to begin with and since its construction for the world exhibition in 889 it had become a little shabby. posing as vice director of the postal ministry responsible for the building. last week invited 6 wealthy scrap dealers for a few beers precisely because they were suspicious last week also asked for a bribe in the form of a commission on top of the purchase price. that's exactly what convinced dealer on tape quest song that he was genuine he forked out a small fortune for the demolition rights so what happened well the eiffel tower is
12:27 pm
still standing. another method fraudsters used to earn their daily crust is forging expensive items in particular are 2 words. one definitely very talented member of this illustrious circle was conrad kuya in the 1970 s. he produced and sold paintings he claimed were done by adults hitler. but he only became widely known and notorious 10 years later after fabricating the so-called hitler diaries his 15 minutes of infamy. the irony is that coolio became so popular that other painters set about forging his forgeries.
12:28 pm
common are the elite among the fraudsters and jokesters like wilhelm forked who dressed up as oppression captain to rob the town treasury of company. frank w. abigail was also a master of his trade even before he was 21 he'd already posed as a pilot a lawyer and a doctor in an accident and emergency unit along the way he managed to hustle some 2 and a half $1000000.00 on the side before he was finally caught. steven spielberg film his biography in 2002 but that too was a bit of a calm the real adult male isn't a patch on leonardo dicaprio. and you we asked on facebook when did you last line and why. similar arias said he liked to avoid having to attend
12:29 pm
a social event. some of us did it to avoid hurting someone's feelings. mistral i wrote that she lies to herself when she does something foolish and tries to justify her behavior. and then asks nice to keep from being blamed for things thanks for those honest comments. how often people really lie on a daily basis is hard to prove but it seems we get better at it with age. the. researchers did an experiment exploiting kids love of stuffed animals a child sits in a room and a stuffed animal is placed where can't be seen. a child is told not to know.
12:30 pm
when the reset. leaves the room the child peek in 90 percent of the cases. when asked whether they'd followed instructions of the 3 year olds told the truth. but nearly old the 12 year olds. many adults are expert at lying with years of practice under their belt. it is sometimes said that little white lies are most common among couples. we wanted to test that hypothesis. oh. how many lies have you told today i mean none so i started as soon as i caught up. by one maybe ok. so what to their respective partners say to that and who tells more films. we.
