release of t. v series and movies in the fall, writers incomes have been reduced by online streaming services. for more or less, let's bring in entertainment journalists kj matthews. she's joining us from los angeles. i. what do the writers want? essentially, it all boils down to really 3 things. i want an increase in their earnings, they want an increase in their residuals. and ultimately they also would like to make sure that there are limitations when using artificial intelligence to right, which could ultimately replace them in their jobs. because you're, why has the strike come at this very moment? i think it will forget that, you know, the w ga, the writers guild of america. it always renegotiate, is contracts every 3 to 4 years anyway, so this would have taken place are,
1:08 am
regardless of the strike is just that this time when they came to the table with the alliance of motion picture, television producers and the studios, they could not come to an agreement aah! thus started the strike. what they're basically saying, a lot of the writers are saying is that the landscape has changed over the last disc decade. that is obviously you see a lot more shows on streamers. however, when it comes to residuals, they're not making the same amount of money on streaming shows for residuals as they do for network television shows. in addition to that, you have less episodes when it comes to streaming series versus major television network series. so all of that has to be taken in effect and when you look at all of it, they're saying that their income is down. i within the last 10 years by 20 percent . so they think that things need to change. so what will this all mean for, for them, for the industry as a whole?
1:09 am
ultimately, obviously the major changes that you see immediately are late night talk shows and soap operas because those are shows that are written on the daily. so whenever the writers strike starting, which would have been at midnight on monday, you will see those shows changing ultimately this week, right away. when it comes to the script it television shows, you might not see any changes in no shows until later fall early winter, because a lot of those shows have already written future episodes. so that you'll have a couple new episodes before the changes taken effect depending on how long ah, vis us, why your strike goes on. when it comes to films, most of the films there were going to be released in 2023 have already been written . and shot, so you probably won't see any major changes there, however. right now they're writing for the next year. so in 2024 i especially when it comes to summer blockbusters. that's where you might see the biggest change.

okay. all right, katie matthews, thank you for bringing us up to speed. we'll have to leave it there for now. that's katie matthews. entertainment journalist. russia's war against ukraine is well into its 2nd year with casualties in the hundreds of thousands and without any significant recent victories on the battlefield. moscow's tightly controlled media play a crucial role in maintaining public support for the conflict. what could the kremlin eventually lose its grip? on the narrative, d, w 's, maria cat, a might say, looks at how russian tv fashioned an alternate reality. out of a deadly mas, i'll strike on the city of man. russia sas, its army, uses precision weapons only aimed at military targets. so how's the propaganda? spinning this narrative, this apartment block in human central ukraine was struck by a russian me style. it heat at around 4 in the morning when most people were in bad

. the strike killed $23.00 people including 6 children. so how did moscow respond? rush from state to be use images of they destroyed building, claiming that this devastation was actually ukraine fault caused by keith shelling of the don't boss region. even though this region is hundreds of kilometers away from the actual scene of the tragedy. you know, this video recorded by one also victims was exploited by one of russia top propaganda se floods him. and so he shared an attitude video on his telegram channel saying that it was ukrainians, killing their own people. and while rush and propaganda outlets try to shift the blame, the countries ministry of defense tries to embrace it. this photo reading right on

target appeared on the ministry telegraph channel just a few hours later. independent polls indicate that many russians believe their propaganda. but of course, this does not apply to everyone. after the strike on this apartment building in mon people all over russia brought flowers to spontaneous memorials. the show of solidarity was not welcome farther, rushing towards this, and they were quick to remove the flowers and any messages apologizing for their talk. so is the west doing enough to counter rush and this information on social media? we put that to yeah, co kolinski from the european center of excellence for countering hybrid threats. i think we are doing quite a good job here in europe when it comes to the pressure on social media companies via the court of practice and the digital services act. it still seems to me that these good practices are disproportionately weak compared to the magnitude and the strength of will rushing propaganda. so i think we still need to significantly set
