7:29 am
very base surrounded by a very fertile minefield just a stone's throw away from havana in miami beach this beauty has cost u.s. taxpayers about five point six billion dollars over the years for just the prison facility alone and of course like a kid in college or your favorite political party it always needs more money yes according to the miami herald the pentagon is looking to spend nearly five hundred million dollars in new construction at the naval base including two hundred fifty million for a new earthquake proof hospital bed hospital two hundred fifty million dollars five beds five beds to fifty pentagon mathematics at its very best but it's not just the pentagon looking to squeeze money out of u.s. taxpayers and to know our lovely political parties are also looking to oring every last nickel out of their followers with the republicans raising a massive eighty six million in the first seven months of the year leaving the democrats in the dust at just over forty the democrats are pair apparently are so
7:30 am
desperate to fund their resistance that they are now allegedly sending fundraising pleas in the guise of final notice to bills to their supporters. between the pentagon and our political parties the u.s. taxpayer is looking less like a citizen and more like a piggy bank as we start watching the hawks. what it. looks like. at the bottom. like you know that i got. the everybody to watch from the hard side which i robot for and on top of
7:31 am
a lot of. good will get low get low and the democrats and republicans everyone is this police and taxpayer money there's no it's not. there is nothing burger or explicit the government is she having you on your money. or. todd imo years it's shocking i'm shocked to find gambling about yeah it's a little ridiculous five beds that you know that's five million dollars per sorry fifty million dollars per bet those better have some real leg do you get into the beds and they just cure you of all disease illness they've got a star trek beds where they will explode and will poke at ball and then maybe one could only hope one can only hope i mean look i mean it's amazing how much they want to spend but this place it's a got about what fifty five hundred residents i believe forty one war time
7:32 am
prisoners but like you i mean that's a lot of beds i dunno what do they say basically they're saying the light well we need to like really earthquake proof the building at the end of the day which is pretty ridiculous it's we should. just close the players to do you know i mean aside from all the other reasons of why having forty prisoners and paying for five thousand soldiers to watch a centrally forty one people is great i mean i'm saying as i know the fish and die i'm not making a moral judgment things on the fishing use of resources for our. young men and the other the military but you know this building was built one nine hundred fifty six it was a pretty you know we're talking about like words. things that it does need upgrades . what they're saying is that they need to do these upgrades not only for earthquake. issues but also because they're sort of need to upgrade it so it can provide proper ambulatory care to five thousand people although five beds five
7:33 am
thousand again i'm not getting the numbers of the aircraft there's this inquiry i think we only need five but as a for the prisoners or for the yeah it's a little strange but it's supposed to be for the people on the base and made a statement to pull out to us the different events health agency definitely said it has to do with that there's the facility has a significant risk of collapse in a major seismic event do the to the lack of seismic design features which i think points again to you know when you have a car and you have bought it kind of cheap or you bought it when you are emotional and so you didn't really look at it and if year after year after year you have to keep fixing it. and cost more to fix the car and get a new car i think we're at that point. the other on the other crude be it out of sight and buried in this like five hundred million dollar bill is this this city. so it's. you know basically there are
7:34 am
maybe for like a good. one hundred million the world basically thirteen thousand migrant city. we're five thousand u.s. forces but they haven't really said what for what and why is this kind of like we need a place with cameras on poles to watch people one store thirteen thousand people but we really build we're not giving you any reasons why which is very creepy. is probably to get you know a bill in your mailbox that turns out to be a soliciting for him for a time or credit that is really but is it any surprise when you look at the numbers that the dems aren't raising all that my desire and so for. him the person extremely online for some editors tweeted out. the pro of exclaimed the democrats are proving the disconnect of the work and cause they truly are some donation
7:35 am
please that look like a collection of letters this is despicable this is really disappointing it's pretty horrible i mean if i mean i want of those things that makes you go never never. done. it is but then that's why you have this might be one of the reasons that the democrats have only raised three point eight million and july while the republicans raise ten point two and every day the new administration is already fundraising i mean every day every day those e-mails are going out and that's why they're doing rally is that it's not for the country there are any raising money. for. old voters as for money and productive discourse seems to be on if the last leg of hashtags trending topics and click bait headlines polarize everyone and everything they can get their grubby little hands on instead of discussing the very issues at the core of the division and solutions for them feeding the beast of offense is
7:36 am
much more tantalizing e.s.p.n. chose to pull veteran sports announcer robert levy from the university of virginia's home opener in september yes spokesperson told the washington post quote we collectively made that this. with robert to switch games as the tragic events in charlotte or unfolding simply because of the coincidence of his name so now both right and left me out floods and corporate and independent outlets are calling for apology is making mediums and feigning abject horror at the act while reveling in the clicks that their own reporting of the outrage honors them with because context doesn't matter when it's possible to take a shot across the bow of the current administration mainstream media headlines this morning were practically is all over it and over it is that the navy was second vice admiral joseph acquired the commander of the seventh fleet over recent accidents as they said quote due to a loss of confidence in his ability to command what the navy and the media failed to make clear was that the vice admiral just acquired was set to retire in less
7:37 am
than two weeks that the navy just began a full fleet wide global investigation into into the accidents that they had been stretched unbelievably then reassembling and that rear admiral phil sawyer who took command was already scheduled to do so on september seventh that's right just two weeks now but hey why use the logic common bit of human decency when you can make a few bucks off a trash or go thirty seven year navy veteran get to the administration and penalize an engine american because rhesus might make jokes. those that wish to make all of our lives a living hell for fun and profit want us to be or a few are full frail and flimsy both against each other and them. culture just reached its zenith or could get harder and i don't read hear the words reach the top. because i don't care about anything anymore and nothing nothing
7:38 am
outrages me nothing i mean you know it's like a child starving outrage you know the evil done real things to be outraged by. me and then when they decided that they didn't do those things so they made. a big deal out of right. oh my god the admiral had to leave his post to expire before he was scheduled to leave his post i think it's i think it's a shady move for the navy to sit there and say because oa well here is. that shady i think it's incredibly gross you know especially two weeks yeah probably because these two weeks from retirement. and you already are putting together a plan to fix these issues and to look into them and it makes more sense to have the guy who's going to take over or the guy who's on is probably already boxing up with stuff right in the captain's quarters that were destroyed in the ad thing you're blaming him for i'm sorry that's why you had to leave it was because all
7:39 am
this stuff we're going out to see literally right he's like you know the way i was about it is a record i wasn't there was there any more you know it's probably like one of those moves it was like two weeks if you were going to surely but of another thing is on the on the yes you know what what's really even more outrageous about that is there's over eleven thousand robert lee is living and the united states it is the lead is these twenty second most common name in the united states so i think what it what good does this do what it good does the dubious pm being all delicate about something that wasn't even an issue then making an issue out of it and then everybody getting outraged about what celera is about us that's a great point to believe i'm suddenly making an issue than ever getting all raised because they made it an issue on target issue over an issue you know we're just blows my my mind is that the really the other is doing more harm than good laura wattenberg the creator of baby name wizard dot com told the atlantic i think ironically e.s.p.n. did more harm to the name than the statue did because e.s.p.n.
7:40 am
just sort of fired a shot across the bow saying that the name robert levy a whole host forms is now linked to the general and i suspect that a lot of bob believes are cursing them right now which is a great point i mean if i read yeah if you're so sensitive this from a channel the routinely you know instigates fights between anchors on the show for radio you know. from a channel that plays up so much in sports just click bait but it's not the is the a model but yeah i mean the idea that model and c.n.n. i mean all we've watched them together if it's order of shock it's really kind of ridiculous you know the only thing more ridiculous than than everything else is all . also the idea that supposedly now we're talking about the out right now immediately appears the was was the navy hacked it must be ak it must be a hack it must be because your nose said the. united states never does anything but here's what is so ridiculous you have people we're supposed to be
7:41 am
experts in their field sitting on on social media is it is not coded there's a thing number one if a much more sophisticated if the very very sophisticated navy vessels are that hackable don't you think that commercial vessels tooling around it why would people be out with whole ships trying to hijack commercial vehicles or commercial vessels they could just hack him through their g.p.s. to. the navy just a couple of. the navy for the most part when there are these things happen are using the lookouts usually two to four of them on each ship those use their eyes so and told the russians or the chinese learned how to hack but not killers on their eyeballs that's not happening they don't use g.p.s. to navigate a rate and i round other vessels they use radar. and their eyeballs and also if anything to anybody who's ever been in the navy will tell you redundancy is the name of the game it's redundancy after redundancy after redundancy and so i think anyone playing any they have it's fire oh god robert lee. down
7:42 am
outrage take it down and plenty of things to be outraged about these are so we'll get to those in the next half a second after your sort of broken arm watchers are going to let us know what you think about topics with government facebook and twitter see our poll shows that are dot com i'm starting this monday august twenty eighth we are going interstellar is watching the harps and all your other favorite are two shows will be airing on direct t.v. channel three twenty one years and you can see. from space. anyway coming up georgetown professor chris chambers enters the park's nest to discuss the role excessive coverage plays in legitimizing extremist views stay tuned to watch your folks. make this manufactured consensus stick to the public well. when the ruling class
7:43 am
is protect themselves. with the final merry go round listen to the one percent so. we can all middle of the room sit. down. for. the sort of situation is the best. concerns on the part of the four arab countries egypt saudi arabia emirates. as relates to policies of cut up about have to be addressed have had a very adverse impact on national security and the case of material evidence exists in the face of policies that have adversely impacted has created and has caused a loss of life in egypt this is an intolerable situation.
7:44 am
and book a clinical place called a police a key to keep. the let's say i. was i live so. that in your heart it was ok to commit they're going to my thick. enough life playing ball club with such like you don't want to dodge myself i don't know why he said i feel unsure i should think almost like yourself all thank you for. me was.
7:45 am
apparently in the long term memory challenge world of journalism in two thousand and seventeen it took the tragic events at charlottesville to remind the mainstream news media of the racial and cultural divisions that still exist in this country i guess they forgot about the adversity and outrage hatred that the black lives matter an occupy wall street movements consistently face both in the streets and over the airwaves in the aftermath of any tragedy is self reflection is an important part of the healing process so today let's take some time to sell for flecked on just what role both the corporate and independent news media played in cultivating the growing divide in the united states and around the world writing
7:46 am
for lincoln anthony playfully about the basic problem with the media coverage of extremism today quote the deaths of our children are filtered through pointless panel eruptions and language that specifically animated killers like dylan roof and james jackson is allowed to breathe on their air or unfettered until c.n.n. decides that white nationalism and white supremacy is too dangerous to be treated as provisions for amusing t.v. their theater will be nothing more than a forum for legitimizing the worst type of bigotry joining us today to bring some self reflection to the news media and to help us better understand where the line is drawn between informing or legitimizing this georgetown professor of media studies chris chambers welcomes the always a pleasure chris always approaches so you know we've seen it from so i mean i think the role especially cable news there's a lot of guilt to be thrown around i think you could see in him fox news new york times the same of you would be seeing them show kusin richard spencer. new york times you know given. it was always manage and editorial pages. fox
7:47 am
news consistently giving ted nugent a platform but. you know at what point does this turn from providing perspective you know viewpoints or you know moves items to giving legitimacy to what would normally be considered fringe and extreme i think it's you know they they're the corporate model is to get as many eyeballs watching and then clicks afterward as possible so that's what they're going to play to so you're not going to have somebody talking about the history of race relations or the civil war or the. discussion of the civil war or the united states from seven hundred seventy six or before that to now or race relations or capitalism or you know marginalization of people you're going to have they're going to bring the craziest activists they can in the craziest right wing nut that they can to to go at it and that's what really
7:48 am
that's really what's going on and then they sit back and decry the fact that people aren't well informed and that's the thing that really gets me because it's like at the end of the day when you when you put somebody on like you say it's one thing you want to do an interview every now and again you want to say ok here's the subject this is a guy that's prominent i asked some hard questions you can see that but when it's over over and over and over again that's where it's really best and then it just seems like a punching match to some extent it's like you have great extremism and terrorism is great for ratings but when you see anchors who bring people on and then don't even let them speak one point does that stop becoming journalism and that becomes just it's a surrogate is that you know that's it becomes a circus and and what it does is it probably and this is just from my studies and my personal opinion too it probably legitimizes the extremists because it gives them a platform and then to deal with the demise of the media whatever whatever outlet that is and then journalism in general and it doesn't do anything. to to to refocus
7:49 am
the followers of that extremist on religion cation i mean you know a lot of a lot of these guys that were there in charlottesville had just utterly just maybe third grade if that ideas of american history or robert e. lee or the civil war i mean you know and if you're going to try and you're not going to really change their minds but maybe even shame them into acting differently you have to present them with something a little more tangible and giving and a circus is not going to do that i mean you know it there are plenty of people out there at georgetown at other event in the south older white male sons of the south history professors who can give you a sober and accurate view of what this country has been and it and you can't sit there and tell me that they're like well they're long haired liberal professors they're not they're old white guys and they could even do that but they don't bring
7:50 am
these guys know these women on the air because it's not going to get people like yeah like an air sound it doesn't no it doesn't but but but now but you're right because that's part of it too because if you're sitting there waiting for your flight that's eight hours late and you see these people going at it and there is somebody in the middle who's supposed to be moderating it supposed to be informing people and they're just letting them shout and then they interrupt them you know and say something obvious or not profound but obvious like well is it is it racism really wrong i mean you know it yeah it really is it doesn't let me let me ask you this and this is you know we deal with some pretty contentious issues in this country today and one of the interesting aspects of come up is you know everyone say well you have to be objective you have to present both sides of every a sure you know as in journalism you know should both sides of a story always be represented you know i as a journalist i mean you can sometimes you look and say i mean if the person clearly
7:51 am
is a racist clearly. or this person clearly you know believes the elves are running the world there's a certain point where you just don't we get all you know people do draw those lines and they've been drawn those lines since you know forever i mean there has to be that kind of editorial kind of guidance among some people might think that's the leaders but there has to be that but at the same time i mean the basic rule is i mean you don't have to be balanced but you have to be fair so in other words in order to be fair you kind of do have to be balanced but you don't give full shrift full center ring in the circus to some nut or to somebody who really is not helping the situation and that could be a u.s. senator or president and i did states are a mare you don't necessarily have to give them the podium all the time to be fair you know but it you have to at least give them some exposure and understand where they're coming from and try to show that kind of empathy not agreement i might i
7:52 am
might try to walk a mile in your shoes but i still might think you're crazy and i might still point out it's like i've walked a mile in your shoes and i think you're crazy still but you still have that obligation but yeah i mean the whole both sides thing is a little tricky i can imagine i mean you can present a side without like cam i think right exactly and i thought this debate going to allow anything like nothing's really image and opinions just all of that it's let's debate it thinking they. you know you see that in the bader outlets i mean some of the you know you do it with our t.v. on the ground you get more of a factual situation some of these smaller outlets like vice what have people on the ground and you can you can talk to them and they'll tell you exactly what happened but you know but even they will in editorialized but at the same time i mean at least they're they're trying to get an r.t. for example is there on the ground trying to get some facts. you know it's really.
7:53 am
a tough call and i blame the cable giants for that ironically the broadcast giants the old school a.b.c. n.b.c. c.b.s. i think for this issue they've done a little bit better job than c.n.n. certainly and then fox most assuredly and animus and b c two i think they've done a fairly decent you know human dimension like bison are to you know and you know right now we're talking you know fox kind of thing is this this kind of you know parading of the extremists and you know bantering an argument is more important than the discussion is this uniquely i'm united states is this uniquely something to western media i mean i want to see this around the world or is this kind of just our three rings i think this is this is something because of the first amendment because of our history i mean in other parts of the world i mean they're shooting journalists in their head so i mean you know there's that. you know i think that
7:54 am
there's i think that this is something that we have really taken to a high art a lot of it is because you know journalists haven't been as threatened and we do have the entertainment model and you know it's almost that we've had this mock safety so we've been able to act more like idiots because you know there's less at stake but there isn't less state there's more at stake play the problem is that insulation i think people have yeah i mean between you know what's happening in their daily lives in the one place and then the distinction that you know when you look at the media they don't seem to have a clue what's going on right anybody under it that makes last that like a million dollars a year they are less about anybody who is working his pore who is a mother who's a father apparently get all themes very you also don't want to make you know i mean if you're talking about it as a c.n.n. or an and b c m s n b c i mean controlled by these giant corporations you're not going to sit there and say well you see america has always been like this and they
7:55 am
don't that's not. good that's not cool to say that because you're really sticking your thumb of the other people who are controlling that and there's no difference between fox and c.n.n. women or if you're not it comes you know you're not going to you're not going to see someone criticizing i.b.m. for you know ultimately being responsible for the early math machines used by the nazis that's right we're going to come up and we're ever desirous of the word but it's my race you know these things are not going to see looking to the future do we get better or is this get worse i want to think it's i think it's got to reach some kind of equilibrium at some point and even now i don't i think that they're starting to get through their heads now maybe not fox because they do have an institutional problem there are people in there trying to change that but i think there are i think there are some institutional internal rather controls are saying look we've got a we've got a really cool the stand we can't just give people
7:56 am
a podium all the time we have to educate people and inform people if we're going to really heal spell properly but. you know so that's i think that's what's going to christine was always a pleasure everyone's name so much. if you might hang ups about the morality of hallucinogenic drugs and might be time to let the should talkie go so is at the university of germany we're comparing a listener janica non who has to take mushrooms in an attempt to discover which chains are crucial in creating psych file by ben the psychedelic compound that give some mushrooms their magic what they found was that this psilocybin wasn't necessary for mushrooms just survive but it is found in areas with a lot of funk eating insects scientists now theorize that the vision inducing substances might be a natural insect repellent that plants develop to protect themselves going one step further this discovery is also being used to perfect the process of synthesizing so
7:57 am
. i've been as studies are getting closer to proving that the magic in magic mushrooms could be a safe and effective treatment for anxiety depression and addiction don't be fun doubt because science is already planning a really great track oh i love i always sign it looks good to the heart of the magic mushroom issue. of stars over your very remember everyone in the world we're about told to look them up so i tell you all i love you i am tired and that people are watching those talks of every great day and night but. what is it when the swiss national bank is such a bank and other such all banks on behalf of governments are now the biggest owners of stocks when japan is the biggest holder of exchange traded funds that's called nationalization that's socialism and combined with the central bank of poland
7:58 am
bureau that is fixing the price of money it's not a free money market for money and combined with purchases of open assets and nationalizing those assets that's pretty good calling it is all that's nationalism that's why this is just blow the economy is shrinking because the social breakdown of what danny blanchflower to our says they're not operating in ways to free markets. the two thousand and eight economic crisis turns some countries into paid. these are the countries with weaker economies that needed austerity policies if you are in a situation of flow bloat even the recession oh steadies a very bad idea it doesn't work it makes millions of people very unhappy those who are unemployed see their wages decline the whole most a decade how good are the results. of the. to watch
7:59 am
the world get people to see what i. believe will be she was i mean to for legal. challenge must that she's not. she's standing there. while the same measures are still in place one of the consequences to. labor. well first. the truth of the consider is the consequences are actually quite acceptable to the decision making.
8:00 am
as civilians please u.s. led coalition air strikes and i'm still militant from the ambassador rocky city of tal afar humanitarian organization is one that people that face the same devastation witnessed to mosul. r.t. travels to the hometown of the a mom who suspected of radicalizing the group of men who carried out the recent spain attacks it's clear that there are understood to have attended prayers led by our society to spain accused of being the ringmaster behind this terrorist cell.
