down t.v. radio even the skaters not imitate life the long running simpsons takes a shot at it rupert murdoch aka montgomery burns in an episode broadcast apparently coincidentally this week. but it's not the only piece of timing in the extraordinary phone hacking case that seems to get more scandalous every day the list of something like four thousand names which the police have have since about two thousand and forty thousand and five and yet they got promise facie evidence of criminal activity by these individuals and. by the murdoch empire and yet they've not acted on it so why now just as the murdoch deal to take control of satellite t.v. giant b. sky b. look sure to go ahead his rival the guardian newspaper releases catastrophic

allegations of a moral journalists and their shady practices that when the deal collapses the times for example which currently loses money could have transferred some of the profits from sky b. . to investing in the times and if you will for example of the guardian or the telegraph. that it's not just rival newspapers who stand to gain from murdoch's empire crumbling the b.b.c. could retake t.v. territory lost to b. sky b. and the labor party which was wounded by years of relentless attacks by murdoch papers can finally take revenge but where will all this lead.

you know. that would suit the government just fine the british press is famous for its sharp teeth and no holds barred doggedness particularly where its own government is concerned prime minister david cameron has all but shut down the press complaints commission and already talks of statutory controls to go up and print journalists back in springfield mr burns is cool to it has the townspeople put up their own newspaper and he's almost right. because it is possible to control the media because of rupert murdoch he is beautiful murdoch found as did mr burns that you just can't buy all the newspapers those outside his control have been gunning for him think it is and this time they may have succeeded just as he

looks set to consolidate control over a launch section of the u.k.'s media markets the growth being pulled out from under him and it's all over the hidden scandal now revealed that the police have known about it for years nor ever its artsy. artie's been hearing how the culture of control by the murdoch media got out of hand grindrod who runs a t.v. network for social activists says there are parallels with some nations wider imperial ambitions. you can make an analogy i think on an international scale between what happens in takeover so the united states and britain took over iraq and who do they bring to power who they employ they employ no clothes and i think that same thing has happened in the tabloids where we have a man's power and again some murdoch and a few of the other big barons and who they hire will lay higher not painting every

journalist with russian thuggery but certainly if you look at all murder whether it's on television or you paid verbal assassins right to light early on hannity and night it states i don't reckon. it's a whole culture of power and control and conception or an agenda and that agenda i think is the general prominent powers both britain and the united states. oh you're asking what you think of tabloids tactics getting the story and here's what you're saying at our t.v. dot com so far most votes say it's ok long as it doesn't cross the line thirty four sansa viewers things he approaches in one meeting the modern public's demand around a fifth believe such good morning acids are outrageous and ethical and must be punished all the rest thing again is in line with society's move towards less

privacy cast your vote now or tea dot com but here's what else would wind up for you today. you've been a supporter a lot of your voice discover why the russian p.m.'s been given the bon treatment on billboards in moscow. the song the creature is in crisis as a ferret a parrot and a monkey escaped from a siberian circus seemingly because of bad summer weather is getting them down more on the furry friends are to go home. drastic spending cuts are on the way the u.s. parliament desperately tries to fan off a spiraling debt crisis at all bodes badly for the euro italy's finance minister even compare the currency struggles to the titanic thought

a financial writer patrick young told us the government may find itself in conflict with the public that's dead set against cuts. there will be one significant difference between the people who take to the streets between greece and italy and that is that greece at least thank goodness the taxi drivers don't go on strike where is nuclei expected almost everybody is going to end up on strike and it's going to be absolutely chaotic the only way they can slip this through is perhaps because we do have this long lead in time until the cuts really start to make an impact in two thousand and thirteen but i think the problem is in the meantime a large amount of the sort of the leftist opposition in italy for see the fact that silvio berlusconi due to many of the reasons will soon which are outside of the direct fiscal reason are well i mean he's a wounded animal at this point in time and in some ways i think that he's going to be very difficult to hold his government together there are big problems in western europe they haven still be here definitely to the east everyone not so fortunately

expect further to the crisis because the epidemic the contagion seems to be spreading and we have new political leadership seeming to do with. as days crossed out here the values gas discussed why the e.u. is leadership is so adamant about saving the euro and yourself what's coming up at eleven thirty g.m.t. . let greece go break up it would be good for greece it would be good for the europe it'd be good for the world if greece went bankrupt and rose to the highest pay their bills or stop lying then you would have everybody would know it's a strong sound currency based on a strong sound economy why lahman go bankrupt this isn't in our euro in america we've had stage go away grow here in cities go away grow up we've had characters go great growth it didn't in the united states and it didn't in the u.s. start i'll tell you why because of the four hundred billion dollars a bet that greece has fifty percent is held by german and french banks and those countries don't want to take a second hit in the financial markets is that simple. if you.

want to be. very clear reflections on the other side of the atlantic to president obama has given an unyielding u.s. congress thirty six hours to raise the country's debt ceiling the deadlocks already spurred to office three major credit rating agencies to threaten downgrading america's aaa status but best alice max will tell you that washington's addiction to debt is clouding both sides appetite for real solution. america's been running on debt for years this is a disaster in the making i would liken the situation here to a cancerous tumor inside a body there's no better time to cut the cancerous tumor out as quickly as you possibly can that said the u.s. government has been running on debt for many many years and we've been raising the

budget the total debt ceiling for many many years as a budget issue and we've successfully had deals struck it has become the political norm in the united states that whatever party is in the white house has to ask to raise the debt ceiling it's always been raised in the past the party that's not in the white house it's out of power screams and yells for three or four days at most usually about how the government spending too much and should live within its means the debt ceiling debate gets raised and it's business as usual that's been the case for thirty years so we have one side in the congress right now that's a sided no increase in revenue is acceptable i don't other side has decided that not raising revenue is unacceptable and so we've reached an embarrassing impasse that has dragged on for weeks longer than it should and is the reason that we're going to see a growing chorus of foreign and domestic voices urging congress and the white house to stop riling already strained global markets with a political impasse despite treaties and agreements to curb the spread of nuclear

weapons governments keep investing in perfecting their arsenals and for some activists the danger will remain for as long as people remain apathetic and about twenty minutes time r t a special report tells the story of citizen crusaders who hope the south wake up call for countries refusing to relinquish nuclear weapons. with the end of the cord war and the going away of the soviet union many people thought that nuclear weapons disappeared. the risk is not zero that something might be going off by mistake especially with all of the nuclear weapons on hair trigger a lot. of civilians using it as a threat all as an extra bit but you know if you keep spending a trillion dollars a year on weapons adventure you're going to blow everybody up you you know people are dying from these weapons but until we actually see it people don't like. nuclear weapons or a bill. that represents all the firepower of the second world war

and this second sound is the equivalent firepower of the world's nuclear arsenal today. iran stories have been issued for the captains of two vessels which passed by the sunken volga river cruise ship was out stopping to help survivors and they will reportedly face negligence charges comes just a day after two people linked to the disaster were arrested to hand over the farm which rented out the vessel and the registrar for certify the ship are suspected of violating safety regulations resulting in the deaths severely overloaded crews are went down on sunday in russia's republic of tatarstan killing at least one hundred fourteen people including twenty seven children the sunken ship is to be brought to

the surface within the next few days are you spoke to the captain of a vessel which came to the aid of the survivors. as we were nearing the site we began to figure out how many people there were in the water hold it was hard to do because there was a lot of rubble floating around as well it was very hard to prefer them to vidual people from under. a lot of debris some people were dreadful conditions i mean you were injured all over there because when the ship saying the fuel oil came up to the surface and spread everywhere and covered the people that made the rescue even harder because the oil me the victims greasy and hard to get a hold to pull them on board change children and their condition that was particularly heartbreaking the full interview with a captain many in the country are considering a hero is on right now at r.t. dot com. the u.s. may want to be seen as the world's human rights advocate but a whole list faces growing accusations of hypocrisy thousands of professional

torturers have reportedly been trained over the past sixty years was the pardon of answerable at a scale and for found out it's ready to export its interdiction expertise. it's been thirty years and i mean soldiers kidnapped the stars and electroshock there i received about all for having a quote subversive. memory he reliving every day people have survived torture in cologne that's why i'm very lucky to be able to tell the story most people get pulled through for the stand there and then they get shot and kill many have been disappear after says the colombian soldiers who tortured him and later killed his brother. were trained right here on american soil at the school of the america and for penning george i mean we have claire was an instructor there i was very much in favor of the school of the americas there in the cold war era but

major player says he was horrified with what his former students did with their anti-communist training in their own country the classified. army schools. use the words to regain its course assess and they. come in line. with all the weights for. graduates from the school of the americas have been implicated in massacres and torture throughout the hemisphere of the more than sixty thousand soldiers and police who have graduated ten thousand of them have been colombia has been the largest of the school of the americas i don't think it's an accident. abuser of human rights and it was sometimes for the eighth amendment because constitution forbids torture and other forms of cruel and unusual punishment as does the geneva convention but if that happens there's no question that our country. and tortured sort of put toward others how to do it we also

rendered people we also sent people to prisons in other countries where there were in fact torture there although congress demanded more oversight of military training programs and into. investigation by the government accountability office show that school of the americas manuals advocated using quote torture truth serum blackmail and execution the pentagon said it didn't know what the manuals contain because its staff advisors assigned to review them didn't speak spanish united nations special repertoire for torture one meant it himself a survivor of torture says the lack of transparency in the u.s. led to further abuse can be eighty's unfortunately. military aid and police say it was restored and after that it's been difficult to document to what extent that he includes teaching. techniques that are prohibited by law international law it's a legacy that sharply contrast with u.s. rhetoric about respect for human rights abroad torture survivors and religious

leaders in washington d.c. have come together to demand a full commission of inquiry into what they describe as torture practices been able by the united states including in its own prisons like one time ok and by the cia when president bush says that he waterboarding and he would do it again. and set them right that he had ordered it. that's a very serious problem for the spirit soul of our country as the myth of how many prisoners were tortured by the united states are hard to find but survivors like hector's say the numbers don't tell the full story would someone gets torture no only the person will suffer for the year with a big. part of those on the trigger there's also someone who has to be humanized themselves in order to be humanizing those human beings but a society that supports it is going to be upright a very big crisis illinformed artsy washington d.c. . as the u.s.

expands it sends a terrorist network abroad there are now reports of secret prisons and somalia sites officially belong to local security forces but iran paid for by the cia jolly's jeremy scahill says he's visited the prisons adding that america's mainstream media makes it hard to report what's really going on there. inside this dungeon prison there are no windows there is no sunlight there's a bedbug infestation according to prisoners who've been there mosquitoes all over the place the air is thick and disgusting some prisoners are said to be losing their minds there are also reports from prisoners that there were very young boys inside of the prison some people have been held for eighteen months without charge without access to lawyers without access to the red cross in fact the red cross told me that they were not aware of the prison and that they've never been given access to it i know for a fact that journalists from several major american news outlets were aware of

these facilities in mogadishu and it's for those networks to answer why they've never reported on it both c.n.n. and a.b.c. have allowed their facilities their media outlets to be used as conveyer belts for the spin of the cia and that's the job of the cia and they do it well but the job of major media outlets should not be to be a conveyor belt for the propaganda of u.s. intelligence agencies so i would leave those those questions for other media outlets as to why they're not reporting on this very serious life and death issue that has to do very much with the rule of law in this country and whether or not there's been any change when it comes to respect of international human rights laws and standards. well some of this hour's other world news now the pentagon has admitted suffering one of its widest ever happier attempts with thousands of sensitive fans file still deputy defense secretary william lynn says all the data was taken at a single intrusion in march officials blame an unspecified foreign government and comes after revealing a new internet strategy which treats cyber space as operational terrain like land

air and sea. down government libyans have rallied in a town west of tripoli to express support for chrome to davi and to demand that nato stops its military campaign while rebels are converting factories and arms workshops to build weapons from scratch as it struggles from the lack of ammunition elsewhere the levy a contact group nato nations countries and other states is meeting in turkey to find a political solution to a five month long conflict. texaco's biggest ever marijuana plantation has been discovered by authorities two hundred fifty kilometers south of the us border it covers one hundred twenty hackers and as water by an advanced irrigation system last year investigators found a tunnel from mexico to the u.s. that was fitted out with lighting ventilation and a railway to transport drugs covered forty tons of marijuana.

this is next with me. marina russia's largest bank is expanding into europe and has agreed to buy the eastern european unit of austria bank international as the first acquisition of its russian but isn't something such as more details. it will be the bank's first purchase outside the former soviet union is what was burbank started expansion plans in eastern europe i smugly just feel very very similar to russia c.i.s. markets and borders bank itself are the better lucrative targets health care bank is awesome the rest are made at fourteen billion dollars and it has a wide network of branches they post nine countries in central and eastern europe what we know by now is that today is their bank man ounce approaches opaque hundred per cent of the eastern european union both bank international for estimated eight

hundred and forty million dollars the talks started last year but then had been complicated by the ownership structure of the bank but now the deal is expected to be closed this year and we're now hearing the headquarters waiting for they had a bank. to give all the details on the upcoming deal. russia will not make concessions over its tax regime for car makers to gain membership of the world trade organization under the current rules manufacturers which make more than sixty percent vehicle in russia receive financial concessions this is intended to boost local production of cars prime minister person says the system is not open to negotiation. both partners insist the reformatory sixty percent localised production of three hundred thousand calls in the year we have the opposition can all be changed into red lory we can cross if you.

interest was domestic producers. separately prime minister putin says there are plans to build a second line of the east pacific ocean pipeline this isn't for exporting crude oil to agent market he also suggested another line could be added to the north stream gas pipeline which goes under the baltic sea and terminates in germany no time frame for either project. so most of the markets now and it's going to commodities first oil is going down on a stronger dollar light sweet is down twenty five cents brant sixty six cents investors suspect the u.s. fuel consumption may climb ahead of reports that may show industrial production increased in june and consumer confidence in. two to europe now european markets are down as traders remain cautious ahead of the release of bank stress test results due out later this afternoon their full financial stocks are coming

under pressure the forty's down twenty three percent attacks from four percent. and in russia pretty similar picture to the markets open the negative territory in the still there however the losses have been pared r.t.s. is down just by a quarter of a percent myself down just a notch take a look at some of the main stock movers actually on the market that we're seeing right now financials are mixed along with other financial stocks across the globe is down point six percent is burbank is seeing pretty hefty growth compared to the general movement on the market it's up more than one percent this is probably because of the support but the news the buying this unit of books about international is giving to stock energy shares are down gazprom down quarter of a percent as well prices are so there. and other commodities gold prices are close to record highs as investors look for a safe haven from the storm brewing in the world's biggest economies seen as

a traditional store of values being driven by concerns over the u.s. debt situation and the prospect the federal reserve will print more dollars than i was last in your treated if your capital believes there's no limits to their programming. it did look like a few weeks ago that the price of gold was going to come in lower but then starting to see increased eurozone concerns increased inflationary concerns the prospect of more quantitative easing more stimulus spending from the from the federal reserve we thought that that finished at the end of june now in the last couple of days or so it is an increased likelihood that the federal reserve could start to print more money and that is going to go to two areas that's going to go to gold and into equities are most likely gold at the moment so obviously sixteen hundred dollars would be an obvious level for gold to hit and then you start to see some profit being safe and off the table but then you could push through that and as there is no ceiling you could carry on going to see hundred eighteen hundred dollars. and

gold stocks and rain a favorite on the russian market excision call for massive capital takes some names he thinks will continue to attract the best interest the best that's right now in the markets will be the gold companies. which are essentially hedge against weakness in the in the other currencies. who is. been doing quite well. very well a couple from two ways names such as the corner kelley will simply page positions. for eason's. until the restructuring has been opened for me is more of that as well europe's a day business out there will be back in the thirty minutes time with an update marines next.
