7:30 am
yeah i do find this kind of disturbing from someone like al franken who is supposed to be this great you know proponent of the first amendment free speech and as a comedian who told a lot of off color jokes about sexual assault. it seems weird for him to be saying that the government now that i'm in the government i want to tell other people what they can and cannot say online you know that's where the russia here regarding the. russia hearings and the social media giant testimony franken had said this last week quote last week's hearings demonstrated that these companies may not be up to the challenge they've created for themselves in some instances it seems that they fail to take commonsense precautions to prevent the spread of propaganda misinformation and hate speech no. do i have to sit there and have this conversation. you know propaganda by its definition of what it is and literally the people who created the idea of propaganda were
7:31 am
marketers it's the same things we used we use the same techniques of propaganda against. communists during you know the old red scare not the no one and also if i don't really disturbing that we're sitting here reusing this stuff about telling people what they can say as if somehow censor when you literally say the government should be censoring it because people have too much power to speak their mind yeah i mean that's that's kind of what he's getting to it's interesting michael slater a deep deep deep republican running for congress in idaho first congressional district respond to bring. and he wrote on his kind of campaign website these are very ominous words so precisely what would become so to propaganda misinformation or hate speech when you when you start regulating speech you cross a very dangerous line and that's the that's the big question why do you decide what that is exactly and i want to ask you this should the government step in and
7:32 am
regulate what is and what is not acceptable discourse and advertising on social media or should we leave it up to the mark zuckerberg of the world i mean. who do you leave it up to facebook or the government that's the options that we're stuck with as a society well it's part of the nanny state thing yes i know it's normally you hear from republicans on that side of it's i'm out of state over about this is literally a nanny state it's already turned into hillary clinton didn't win and the reason she didn't win is because all of us over here at the crazy to get own russian television and everybody in russia got together and tweeted about stuff or put out trades i mean i got seventeen porn bots a day of following me i have been harassed online i have seen blatant misrepresentations of products of companies my entire life in the media and al franken is all the sudden cares are food the corporations have lied about the safety of things and people have died because of propaganda also known as marketing
7:33 am
and they didn't care about protecting citizens he didn't care about protecting women when we were being given death threats and rape threats online but now we're supposed to care because. yeah isn't it well might have seen something that somebody else doesn't agree with and to me it all comes down to this i don't know as i like a troll you know i do like frank i'm kind of his for net neutrality but across the board i am neutral he wanted comes true you know the regulation of internet traffic and what should be fast and slow in the things that pis about to turn over looks like december fifteenth or fourteenth he basically the root word around the campfire is over at the f.c.c. the bet is going to be the big day when they overturn net neutrality and then like comcast rise and all them can control the speed of the internet does a bad day come and i hope that we all keep paying attention about what. has any real historian will tell you the unilateral destruction of the native american people and nations that once stretched across north america was as much
7:34 am
a factor in the rise of the united states as the winning of the revolutionary war and tragically that ugly history of violence and oppression that snakes its way throughout us history still exists today exposing itself in the treatment of the water protectors during the dakota access pipeline protests and most recently and the police shooting death of a fourteen year old native american boy r t s david miller brings us more on this tragedy currently playing out and wisconsin jason peril is being described as your typical eighth grade fourteen year old boy pairs grandfather olen pair o. describe jason as someone who never had a mean bone in his body jason's mother said her son was a big teddy bear and everybody loved him the native american teenager was shot and killed by a police officer on his wisconsin reservation last week and they've embraced peru from the bad river indian reservation on lake superior was shot in the heart and shoulder by a broad majority of the ashland county sheriff's office and dispatchers received a call about a male subject walking down the street armed with a knife according to ashland county sheriff's office which does provide foresman
7:35 am
services on the reservation along with tribal police in the west constant d.o.j. does claim that jason had made that call himself to police and this. bribe them self and then when officers arrived he refused to drop the knife and lunged at an officer the d.o.j. account this claim that jason initiated his own suicide via police murder on the basis of a claim that jason was despondent for several days but jason's family says that he had been home sick with the flu during that time he lived with his grandparents who raised him since he was a one year old and reportedly had hopes of joining the military he also played the drums for his tribe his grandfather told reporters he got murdered out and from the house here he's a boy there's warning shots there's tasers there's pepper spray you don't go right on a fourteen year old kid and go for the kill zone we did reach out to the wisconsin department of justice and they tell our t. that the officer involved is still on paid leave also the nine one one call will not be available at this time and it will be released at the conclusion of this
7:36 am
investigation along with investigative reports and other evidence investigators will continue to determine the facts of the incident and do not anticipate releasing additional information at this time also the d.o.j. does say aims to turn over investigative reports and evidence to the da within thirty days of the incident according to a new poll released by n.p.r. the robert wood johnson foundation and the harvard th chance school of public health more than half of native americans living on tribal lands or other majority native areas say that they have experience racial or ethnic discrimination when interacting with police and people in the community have shared their condolences and support for the family of jason his grandmother says they innocent and that he would never hurt a fly with a knife in the superintend of the school district there also offered a statement since many of those students were affected by jason's death saying there is a deep hurt and there's a lot of anger and confusion how a fourteen year old boy could be involved in
7:37 am
a police shooting we have reached out to governor scott walker's office for comment but as of our deadline we have received a response this does remain a charge of death of a teenage boy gone too soon. reporting for the hoax from washington d.c. david miller r t america. that breaks my heart because it says over and over again you talk about one element of our society that has like as you said the beginning of that is nothing but bloodshed and violence to their credit or them and oppression since the dawn of the country has been the native americans i mean it landed here this is really i mean the first non-native people landed on this on this continent they have suffered and that oppression hasn't gone and you know some taboo it's funny it reminded me back you know knowing that this took place in wisconsin that were growing up in minnesota you grew up in wisconsin this reminded me of seeing like those old newspaper clippings from back in like the late eighty's hundreds even one of the eighteen others were they were used to pay people money
7:38 am
for native american scalps pay people money you bring in a scab you get paid that's how sick that's not that's one hundred some odd years ago that's not long ago this needs to mean there are rules and there were laws in certain counties in wisconsin up until just twenty thirty years ago some of them may even still be on the books that said that if more than two native americans i'm not joking about this that more than two native americans are off the reservation at any one time it's considered a war party and you can shoot them on sight there are actual laws that were on the books and told just within the last hundred years in a place like wisconsin and what's really sad about this is that the number of native americans killed by police doubled from twenty fifteen to twenty sixteen or capita so native americans per capita are more likely to be killed by police then any other demographic according the twenty four thousand study by the center for juvenile in criminal justice that's i mean we've talked about on this show there isn't there is this idea that it's ok that they don't matter that they're you know
7:39 am
cops tend to hold book at native americans especially in places like that where they're living on a reservation or living off the reservation as if you're just strong said the. talents increase ratably horror and you see it over and over again i mean we saw it last summer at the at the dakota x. is quite what i wrote some you saw these people out there protesting getting sprayed with cold water on a day and all in all in or on it didn't people that i mean is this gusting how we treat the native americans here and i think they have every right to be upset with the police and they have every right to say why did this boy get shot and again even if let's take the collar let's take culture out of it it's what a twelve fourteen year old boy teen or old boy with a knife during a man handle that you can't look if you're that nervous you couldn't get i mean i must be terrible but you can't if you're that scared you could shoot him in the leg you couldn't you couldn't him what he'd say we have a million non lethal options i am tired of police saying it's ok to kill because
7:40 am
it's easier for them thank you i have my opinion i think that it is really bad and i hope the i hope the justice is found in this case and i hope a lot more justice goes the way of the native american peoples here in this country they definitely need all right as we go to break don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered of facebook and twitter see our poll shows at archie dot com coming up journalist and other qualified roic enters the hawk's nest to discuss the installation of men in power from accusations of sexual assault and harassment one tab at the wall brings us news of a great break in the world of football and c t's stay tuned for watching.
7:41 am
i've played for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside out and. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch put the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super manager billionaire owners and spending two hundred twenty million on one player. so it's an experience like nothing else on to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game a great so one more chance for. the base this minute. and in america a college degree requires a great deal. paying
7:42 am
a decades long debt. study is so hard and requires. going through humiliation to enter an elite society. toci into debt sometimes quite literally to. watch other true colors of universities in the us. please. they all. say yeah but. they're. so. please. please yes to all this is all the good thank. loathing.
7:43 am
oh. please. what took so long that's the question on so many women's minds us harvey why is seen finally faces the soundtrack for us forty years of abuse and harassment but was it the social stature of the victims that finally brought harvey down or was it that he just wasn't the power player he used to be in a recent post opinion piece journalist policy council. recession she overheard two thousand and four between television executives discussing how they could hire prostitutes that were also working actresses for the recounts the executive in
7:44 am
between ordering more bottles of petroleum silver proceeded to break out the names of women who were indeed working actresses as well as models including one woman who was cast to show on his network he was her boss how do you think she got the job of the executive joe as the others high five ten now many are wondering why bill clinton seems to be allowed a free pass for his abuses of power at a time when conservatives are denouncing the moral relativism of today's political climate as well as everyone else to help us discuss this and more is policy like the founder of the award winning travel and lifestyle site abroad abroad one of the world's foremost experts on travel and an award winning journalist and new york times bestselling author of mercury in retrograde and also keith olbermann has twice said she is the worst person in the world of course known as the straight talking woman from ohio according to the york times please welcome paula froelich to the welcome paula. thanks for having me it was
7:45 am
a pleasure you know i want to i wish we were talking under under better circumstances it is good circumstances seeing everybody stepping out and saying enough is enough and let's bring these people but it's pretty fantastic i agree you know would it be but let me ask you would it be truthful to say that harvey weinstein would not be facing this much just as if his accuser had come out during the height of his heyday let's say. a pulp fiction english patient and the guy was buying oscars left and right would we have seen this kind of a you know would we see him this fall from grace. absolutely not i think we're only seeing his fall from grace speak cuz i think somebody at the weinstein company wanted this fall to happen at the end of the day all of us journalists knew about this but there's nothing we could do because of legalities and obviously he was going to sue and there was nothing you could do unless you actually had the papers and they were finally leaked to the new york times and it really just comes down to
7:46 am
the benjamins it's about him not making as much money as he used to and not being as powerful. one of the things that's always bothered me about the conversation around this i used to work for the white house is i used to work for merrimack so i worked with bob and. have you know the therapy bills i should send to him but once he did say twelve oh gosh there are so many so many so much trouble and the way things were starting to look at now seeing lawsuits and as an assistant there a lot of questions now about and because we knew like us journalists knew like some of us knew certain things or knew that something right wasn't going on but we couldn't say that and now when you have all of these lawsuits they're talking about going after you know talent agencies that enabled this why don't we treat one on the one question why do we treat this as human trafficking and on the other how much culpability do we play when we don't have the power to actually call it out like is knowing enough to make us guilty. you know what here's the problem how much
7:47 am
money you've got this is really the question because if you are an assistant and you were going to say something i'm sure there were something you signed when you started. they come after you you know lawyers a good lawyer starts at three fifty an hour yeah that's at least two hours just to hear your claim on the phone so you know it's really about whether you want to ever work again number one number two it's about whether you can back it up and even if you can even if you don't want to work again and you can back it up how many millions is that going to cost you. yeah and i and also at the end of the day you know there were people who did come out and claim things and it was just kind of glossed over it's just until recently that it really had a boiling point and i think it has a lot to do with the election last year i think it goes to it what's interesting to me is when we talk about you know war about the good guy you know when you're in you you see people kind of like you know bryan cranston or whoever come out to clear the wall guys like are really spacey was also produced the decades of start
7:48 am
to abuse and harassment you know a bunch of they're going to get their second chance can we trust the good guys with power to truly protect you know the victims of this kind of abuse and harassment from the bad guys with power. well i think the problem with your entire statement is we're just talking about guys and if you look at hollywood in the entire system it is all just you know there's been i think it paramount they just hired twelve more guys and until you actually get women on board you're really going to have a problem and i think a lot of people don't understand the business ramifications for those you know there's that famous story about bill gates talking to saudi arabia and he's talking to the university of riyadh and they're there someone in the audience says hey we want to be the next silicon valley of the middle east how do you know how likely do you think that is and this is paraphrasing and he basically looked at the audience and said unless you're not using all of your workforce and if you're only using
7:49 am
half it's not likely and of course half of the room erupts into applause the female half and it's a little like that in hollywood you know you start wondering well how did that flicks take off so much how did these streaming services take off and it's because they're actually doing decent shows and decent products and using women in the way that women should be used it's a great pose to just kind of play things out as a great point in that if there was about sexism in hiring i think we would be this would have been stamped out a lot sooner i think those are. really important what are the things about i think you also would see a lot of a lot better quality a lot more just interesting programming whereas women are where women can be shown as just two dimensional characters right and that's the thing that sort of is it is hard to explain to people who aren't in the business of hollywood because they see well you know actresses make this much money you know
7:50 am
they make huge amounts of money to be in movies and they don't realize that those women aren't being treated well i think we've learned that too that they were it's not as if they had a free ride for this whole thing and everybody treated them with mad respect and the rest of us are all just getting shoved under to it was with the exception of meryl streep yeah you know meryl streep i think has pretty much had a lucky read the whole way through godless or i think it's because they're far more afraid of her like a man and all the other like doe there's women you don't there's always that one you know i always say it's a glass ceiling it's a fifty foot wide lucite cap in which an asteroid can break every now and again the whip somebody up and we're not racist or look we're right women we've got one yeah so yeah it's a little like the other we get that because this is that whenever i've gone for years i would go to you know women and women in film empowerment branches and all of these like get togethers and every time you go in there and i just have another friend of my mention it again that you go into a room and they would sit there and say it's so hard to find women directors and
7:51 am
you look around and like every set there is like thirty in the room how do we get that what do we do because it's just ridiculous now to pretend like there are things you hire women and you have women hire women and you actually treat women like human beings as opposed to sex objects that's crazy i mean yeah i mean i don't want you to think i'm schizo phrenic here what crazy ever is you know i mean it's pretty straightforward and not only that but the problem is a lot of these guys say well. you know the these perpetrators made a lot of money but did they really you know a lot of these there's not a lot of r. o. on the lot of these guys shoot him up blast them up movies know and then they might have gotten a lot of good praise from the circle jerk of the oscars but let's be honest they didn't really fly well over the country you know didn't want to do another put that to the idea of how much power someone has my feeling in hollywood is one of those
7:52 am
places also that is really good at pretending that certain people are very rich and very powerful and the truth is they're not was hardly one of those cases i mean we definitely saw his power way over the years but at some point everybody knew that he was doing everything on credit everybody knew that someone else was bankrolling and that you know bob's movies made when i was there he was doing everything on credit surveyed he's still very wealthy i mean look at look at how am far disaster where he raised money for am farm basically got empire to give six hundred thousand dollars to fund finding neverland he definitely has six hundred thousand dollars he just unfunded because the number one rule of business is you never put your own money in. so i'm sure he's got some south a lot of places but i mean at the end of the day it's just i mean it's just come on you know it could happen to a nicer guy yeah you know the interesting thing is when you look at you know this
7:53 am
this this great awesome trend we're seeing of people you know stepping up saying enough is enough the me to campaign all of the you see it jumping industries it's moving beyond just hollywood it's moving into other predominately male dominated areas like politics you know like big business i got a. group b. you know we saw bill clinton. and a lot of them able years around bill throughout the ninety's kind of ride through a sexual assault allegations and really come out the other end unscathed today you know at the same time you you had prominent problems like gloria steinem claiming that because bill clinton was an advocate for let's say environmentalist and we got to give him a break. in politics like hollywood how powerful and dangerous is the idea of letting your crime slide in the in the you know kind of one of the guise of well it's for the greater good for the people around that person or whatever you want to call it it's all dangerous i mean here's the deal you if you let it something slide
7:54 am
it means it's ok and you can go out and do it again and people are looking at you going oh i know but that's just so and so you know you also have to look i think where it really started was the tech industry all last year and through the beginning of this year the tech industry has had a real rough time dealing with the protest culture and you know you have these people who just simply haven't gotten out of two thousand and eight. you know the first decade of the two thousand so it's really pretty lousy for women yeah and all of a sudden women are kind of standing up and saying wait hold up and yeah it was good i mean good on whoever leaked those papers on harvey that all of a sudden the gates are open and you know i was one of the few women who probably never really liked bill clinton. you're out there on the right but still doesn't like it's still one of those things where you're just you know i call a pig a figure a pig yeah you know i thank you so much i hope we can talk again soon because i think this issue is not going away so much and i feel like as women no matter where
7:55 am
we are we've got to stand together and put our fists up because this is that we're not we're not backing down anymore now i think you so much i appreciate you for coming on tonight to em. for american football players the fear of taking a hit to the head is now far as in the pacing the fear of dropping a pass or losing a crucial for town conversion thankfully a major breakthrough in the design diagnosis of chronic truck traumatic encephalopathy or c.t.e. uses finally brought a little hope to many athletes and soldiers living in fear of the disease scientists have known there was a link between repetitive head trauma and c.t.e. a neuro degenerative brain disease for years but a major roadblock was that you could only diagnose the disease through an autopsy in other words the patient had to die before you could prove they had it using an experimental brain scan that can trace a signature protein of c.t.e. called scientists and researchers were finally able to officially confirm c.t.e. in a living patient twelve year n.f.l.
