and has been holes that if investors have seen their shares rally all know. however historically of the such deals we do see around the week over improvements before falling back again now we've had reaction from e.u. leaders today. of course has been criticised for really coming out and saying she wouldn't help greece and doing everything really to save face at home of course facing election battle where she's been criticised the germans will have to bail out greeks even seem to put pressure put further pressure on countries like greece by saying they have too much holiday time which really didn't go down very well in athens now she's come out and says it's quote historical duty to save greece she did that it was a significant step to help your support the euro and the euro is good for us the euro is parts of germany's economic success and without the euro is unthinkable really talking up this deal but as we've seen really there's not so much
7:02 am
a similar reaction from objective sources if you like and sit down you know european leaders confident that this will bring an end to the blogs debt crisis absolutely private investors are expected to play a key role in this bailout they're expected to spend to the tune of fifty billion euro as part of helping greece now private investors never liked having to lose their own cash just fishley when they've been almost as part of this deal the new funds for greece that we wait to see how private investors will react to this to this package. warning. that this really doesn't doesn't fill the essential problem which is the balls that euro zone states in around the mediterranean greeks of we've seen the rioting on the streets they're really refusing to accept the really tough. cuts would have been imposed on them by the

european union portugal prime minister as we know resigned after his all thirty proposals were turned down and italy which last week just a new all thirteen proposals is seeing threats of a national strike to paralyze the country and of course its musical memory is much bigger than greece's ok daniel many thanks daniel bushell there reporting for us from brussels. now the sweeping measures negotiated by the e.u. made it clear that block is committed to saving the euro at any cost but economic done this patrick young says it's only a temporary here patching over the inherent flaws of eurozone finances ultimately a lot more money has been thrown at the greek economy in the hope that that can stop the contagion but really a lot of it just looks like hype and i'm very very concerned that we haven't actually find a cure we've just got another sticking plaster what really the european union are
7:04 am
trying to do here is they're trying to staunch the blood that's flowing the money that's flowing out of the greek economy that can has been kicked down the road the danger of contagion still leaking to other countries such as ireland portugal even italy and spain are there and therefore we don't have a cure what we've seen so far unfortunately looks like hollow words unholy words do not inspire confidence in markets and that has got to be some degree of a problem for the euro in the longer term and as the world what is whether a second greece bailout will finally turn these economic fortunes around there's growing concern that not small may have to be done to stabilize the situation but that's according to italian tell us. but you will it's a necessary measure to use to at least stop for the more men it is obvious it was a rambling euro now in the following days and weeks we will see if other major it will follow the big floor and he's

surface of the boulder event with a stand and says it's final stage. news international time and james murdoch has been accused of trying to mislead british m.p.'s off to say he was unaware of the true extent of phone hacking by reporters his testimony was challenged by two former executives who say murdoch was in full three years ago that illegal practice went beyond just won a rogue journalist some of the media mogul rupert murdoch however denies the accusation and made fresh schools to make his testimony the focus of a police investigation and as the scandal continues to grow critics believe the issue is just the tip of the iceberg and i see no longer falling as the previous sea of people. as the scandal over phone hacking by the murdoch's media empire rages on public and political fury has mainly focused on ruthless tabloids out of control prepared to invade people's private lives and even the dad to get the story
7:07 am
but some say in this day and age the whole concept of privacy is falling apart and in the u.s. more rapidly than elsewhere every time you tap on your cell or click on google or use your mail service everybody's sort of just clicks through that you agree to our terms and conditions well those terms and conditions are very very heavily weighted against you and your privacy interests we see breaches of privacy have been regimes all across america all across the world really in every sector surveyance is rampant but really this is all a microcosm of the biggest survey are all which is to stay. there's little americans can do with the state having sweeping access to their private information access that followed the nine eleven terrorist attacks under a new law known as the patriot act asana law his privacy was taken away from him in two thousand and two when he was detained by the f.b.i. for absolutely no reason he says and scrutinized for months without charge he's
7:08 am
response for nine years he has voluntarily documented nearly every waking hour of his life on the web he has subsequently even turned it into a form of art sealed or listen i've used so you know that over here for example you know that on sunday november twenty fourth of two thousand and seven i've used this term and i went grocery shopping at safeway over there on october seventeenth i got gas over here he posts copies of every debit card transaction so you can see what he bought where and when a g.p.s. device in his pocket reports his real time physical location on a map and this is the shot he took on his way to our studio which was immediately uploaded on his website hasan says his extraordinary abandonment of his own privacy stems from the ignorance of the authorities but in the fear they decided well that guy looks a little different so he must be arab and if he's arab then he must have explosives
7:09 am
everyone knows that that's the logic we're operating we we realize how ridiculous that logic sounds but when your country when your own country takes that on as the basis for national policy. ignorance as the basis of national policy is a pretty scary situation. and that's how i got caught up in it for ha son privacy has become a rally of the past and he says he's not surprised that journalists or anyone else really would use the same surveillance tactics as the state in that sense it might be of no surprise that the chief architect of the patriot act the lawyer who put it together happens to be one of murdoch's hand-picked news corps board directors served as assistant attorney general in the bush administration and was described by some as the purveyor of the most sweeping curtailment of freedom in the u.s. system across the era at a time when corporations and the government can easily hack into people's private lives it doesn't come as a surprise when for example social networks give your personal information at
7:10 am
companies or when other industries leave bob breaching people by the seat in the u.s. it's so widespread and people have gotten so used to it that rupert murdoch seems to be perfect part of the system rather than some special bill and with corporation has been undertaking some unique all lawful practices because here in america they're not so unique i'm going to check our reporting from washington r.t. . well in the new development consoled his policies russia's biggest out to all advertising company news out to all details on bass and business in about ten minutes time also on the bell grills his cross talk of the consequences of the phone hacking scandal and what it's having on both sides of the atlantic the full program coming up in twenty minutes time but here's a taste. for you know the u.k. would make murdoch and his news corp violator of the foreign corrupt practices act
7:11 am
which has criminal and civil penalties. basically doesn't allow u.s. corporations to bribe foreign officials if murdoch is bribing foreign officials as he is really a case or talk about a hundred hundred thousand dollars or one hundred thousand dollars worth of bribes to the london police. if that happened he broke the law and the f.c.c. should look at that and say that the twenty four stations he owns there cover forty percent of united states he should not be allowed license of a news corp's license it should be revoked i don't ask kevin to define what he means by brought up a little more carefully because that sounds slightly as though he's overstating it what some of rupert murdoch's british newspapers have been accused of doing is paying the police the story the story is giving them tips in return for tip offs and i think that is absolutely demick within any tabloid newspaper culture in virtually every country in the world. now

fulfilling new demands that are coming from brussels but people are not feeling any benefits from it there are actually feeling that things are becoming worse so as a result. support for you is dropping so there is a growing. evolving the borders and the government that stands and it will probably continue to be an official government poll just out shows support for eighty membership among serbs at its lowest ever it's no surprise that when portugal italy and many more countries are now struggling for the people here no longer believe that the e.u. is going to be the answer to all their problems all show. many have relatives abroad and. things are wide. besides. they're all patients.
7:14 am
but even. this is a disillusionment in serbia if the government's apparent willingness to bend over backwards to eat in mons so we could be next on the ease list well another major sticking point is thought to be serbia's failure to recognize breakaway costs of a belgrade val's that will never happen despite many member states pushing for exactly that president but it insists that serbia is moral and legal obligations have now been filled the song remains the same is led zeppelin's. i mean it hasn't trains that has a chance as to why the thrust of his interests and projects the rest the rest of the koran had it subtly monsour me it will have a major obstacle to serbia and it's great to even bishop there with its staying still a long way to good services it's kept is part of the deal with the e.u. now he does. odd thing about great. where are around the clock or you can

russians civilians for peace in libya and. i think really fundamentally there's been a problem the way nato the nato nations and their media have related to these so-called rebels i mean these rebels have been conducting mass lynchings of black people throughout the first several weeks and months of this crisis and i raised this directly in press press conferences and the answer was what silence it was uncovered in the media before because this does not fit the narrative since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine nato aggression against yugoslavia which was we are conducting these wars not for geopolitical control and domination of mccloy's ational mineral wealth but for humanitarian reasons so how can it fit the narrative of these rebels which nato and the nato countries are supporting lynching black people or conducting all the atrocities they accuse in the gadhafi side of conducting but actually the rebels are conducting these things so it doesn't fit the narrative of. i think all the top stories were around the wall and.
