entertainment studios in hollywood it's no surprise that the u.s. is the world's top movie market however that could be changing in the near future for the past few years china has been quickly catching up to the americans as the box office favorite revenue from north america is top ten billion dollars for at least the past eight years while movie attendance has remained fairly steady in the u.s. over the past decade attendance in china has exploded in fact china could potentially surpassed north america as the largest movie market in the world as soon as get this this year while experts are skeptical of the country's potential china's ticket sales have already outpaced sales in the u.s. so far this year china which is currently the world's second largest box office market has seen their box office revenues grow from just more than a billion and a half dollars in two thousand and ten to more than eight billion dollars in less than a decade and has become a key source of revenue for the country. but while china's theater attendance has

skyrocketed in the last few years hollywood executives are now fretting about the future of their products in the country months ago some movie production companies fear retaliation from tough trade threats from the united states but now they have found a new reason to be concerned the chinese government. following recent shake ups in the ranks of the government the country's film industry will now be operated by the ruling communist party's ministry of propaganda and the pass the country's film department work under an independent governmental organization which was not affiliated with the communist party the move gives the ruling party more scrutiny of foreign films that are allowed in the country because the executives in hollywood another movie industry is to become an easy the move comes after president xi jinping is recent power consolidation which is allowed to serve indefinitely currently any foreign film showing in the country must be approved by

the government before airing. and canada has opened its wallet to buy the trans mountain pipeline a move which has angered both of those on the left and right of the political spectrum the country's federal government is spending nearly three point five billion dollars to buy the pipeline at all the texas and all of the texas based morgan's core assets in china and canada rather artie's alex behind which joins us from toronto not china with more alex what's the federal government's logic in buying that controversial trans mountain pipeline we've talked about that thing many times that it seems like others lots of trouble there. oh yeah this is either a step forward or a step backwards according to your speaking to looks like prime minister trudeau who everybody thought wanted to be an environmentalist looks more like you know stetson hat texan oil baron or executive as he pushes this project through and they're buying this pipeline now we've talked about this pipeline as you mentioned
1:08 am
here at the map kind of proves what this is and shows some of the controversial parts of it the fact we have a sixty year old leaky pipeline that goes through some of the most pristine areas not only in canada but in the world from the tar sands all the way up the mountains through forests and down to the pacific ocean which is going to have guaranteed more tanker traffic if there is more oil there so that's where some of the controversy possible talk more about that but here's the logic behind what trudeau and his people are doing they say you know we need to have this pipeline to build basically confidence in this project if it's canadian old if it's owned by the government and we can move forward from there to her mortgage going to keep working on this pipeline to expand it until august and then we can move forward to expand it you know they want to go to triple capacity and then somewhere down the road when markets get better the canadian government can sell this pipeline off to somebody and this is the logic behind this alberta as a premier rachel not least she's giving this a thumbs up you know that she's had
1:09 am
a lot of problems with this since the tar sands are in her province jeez even saying we'll throw two billion more necessary if there's any problems what does but how does that logic work one of the opponents to this pipeline will still be around not months but most likely years from now who are you going to sell this thing to with that opposition still happening tkinter borgen couldn't do it why would somebody else be able to do it and that's why many people are saying that this is just a ploy in fact this pipeline is just meant for nationalized they should and that's it period in the long run. well i mean who is opposing this thing is it just environmentalist i mean you know that any environmentalist group would be opposed to as you say a leaky pipeline but what who is against this thing. environmentalists of course as you mentioned they are they've been protesting forever we also have native groups in this country who are being very vocal about this this goes through some of their land they have problems with this just passing through their land without their permission a and b. this is an environmental threat see if the people of canada especially those that
1:10 am
live in the east are as i say the west coast tanker traffic and chances are you're going to have a spill of they're going to go up so all these people don't like it at all you also have the b.c. premier mr horrigan he's been opposing this from the very beginning and he's saying the same threats exist in a matter of this is national or who owns it this is what's happening on the right very different story they're saying we had a pipeline here being built for us five billion dollars invested by khidir borgen and now we are what the three point five billion us in a hole so this could have been done by a private company it wasn't done by a private company the government's taking it and you know the right they do not like anything with the words nationalisation and it also i mean it's a pretty strong argument from that part so left or right nobody seems happy about this in this country at least. when in doubt government steps and r.t. correspondent alex mileage thank you as always alex thank you.

the chances that astray should place restrictions on doing business in the u.s. for chinese telecom giant z t six weeks ago after a z t e broke u.s. sanctions by selling products to our rand in north korea but then in recent days mr trump has decided to spare z.t. even allow them to get back into business in the us and some apparent arrangement with president g. jinping of china now members of mr trump's own political party are saying the madness has to stop in frontal opposition as u.s. senator marco rubio the florida republican who says congress will take steps to prevent z t e from being able to do business in the united states all of this continues as a trade war tit for tat with trying to continues here to help sort of a third all out is radio and t.v. host steve wallace ok steve you've got to explain what the deal is with z t it's a national security concern and
1:12 am
a corporate security concern which is why we have these sanctions and they violated it but explain the circumstance well. has long been suspected it's a chinese multinational telecommunications company have long been suspected of espionage using the routers and other technical a technological equipment to spy corporately and national government agencies as well and when they were found to be in violation of u.s. sanctions as you mentioned by doing business with and shipping technology to iran in north korea well the commerce department last year imposed severe sanctions seven years they were going to forbid for dealing with american companies that were their suppliers so that effectively would put them out of business so the president china picks up the phone calls on. and says this company is going to go out of business if you believe what the outcome said and all these people are going to lose their jobs so the interim says we can't have that we're going to save the company so the new penalties are with the couple of billion dollars of it in fines
1:13 am
they're going to have to put americans in positions of authority within the company to make sure that everything's on the up and up and they're also going to have to replace the entire management team and so that's what trump has agreed with with the commerce department marco rubio for one has been leading the charge of amongst republicans and others who is outrage and says z t e should go out of business we don't want them here in this country we should ban them we should ban all chinese telecommunications companies from this country because they spied on us so that's where we are that's that's the latest and rubio seems to think that if they pass legislation in the house saying z t e has to go that even if the president vetoes that they will have enough people two thirds to override that veto it's a crazy circumstance where the president just flipping on these things which brings up another question stephen is how do you negotiate with a you know
1:14 am
a deal maker in chief who trades their changes their positions all the time well i think this whole. and i think the tariffs which will get to that he says they won't be any would they were now there will be some it's all part of a grand scheme for us all we need china china needs us more than we need them in the long run they have a three hundred seventy five billion dollars trade surplus with us they steal our intellectual property trump knows this he's looking for bargaining chips he's looking for for ways to prevent and fix both those those problems but he also needs china for north korea he needs them for other geo political reasons they're building islands in the china sea they're doing all kinds of things so trump sees all of this as one pot and he could pick and choose and cut and slice and just because he. as one thing today doesn't mean it's going to be in the grand bargain wilbur ross commerce secretary is going to be in china this weekend trump is doing all these things now and ross then has all these bargaining chips in and oh ok i
1:15 am
know trump said this but if you give us this i'll tell trump to go back on that it seems to have worked with north korea so far as far as getting a summit maybe to work with china in the grand scheme of things it's too early to tell we will hope it works out steve malzberg conservative t.v. and radio host thank you for filling always my pleasure thank you. and before we go i ask at the top of the program what you would be if you lost seventeen thousand dollars in income this year well the answer is you'd be a mom of a mother today as moms equal pay day according to the bureau of labor statistics seventy percent of mothers in the us are in the workforce when i worked on capitol hill one of the things that drove me crazy was all of the commemorative bills to proclaim things like national dairy go to awareness day i'm serious sorry to the
1:16 am
dairy goat farmers but there are certain things that we don't need to know but there are a bunch of reasons to raise awareness about serious subjects and equal pay is something super important because today and the numbers do matter here today we are one hundred fifty days into the year and one fifty is the extra number of days that a mom would need to work to earn the same annual pay as a dead just nuts we have heard that women are paid about eighty cents for every dollar that a man makes but they get for working moms is even greater seventy one cents to the dollar there's a mom pay gap in every state in the union the worst state in which to be a mom as far as getting paid is in utah and the best state is in maine where a mom gets eighty five cents to the dollar that a dad makes let's hold. things get better here or there c.e.o.'s there's a place to put some of those hard earned tax cuts thanks for watching be sure to catch boom bust on you tube youtube dot com slash boom bust r.t.

1:21 am
you for watching the news headlines here at r.t. international broadcasting live from moscow i'm kate. a russian journalist whose death made global headlines has revealed he is very much alive arkady caus murder in ukraine was apparently staged to catch the people trying to kill him artie's finisher said he joined neil harvey in the studio earlier with the details just this morning we saw a lot of finger pointing headlines across the media blamed russia officials quick to say that russia was the mastermind behind this operation but today's picture is now completely different there was clearly no murder as russia has been saying all along much to the confusion of everybody arkady by gemco is alive and well in fact he appeared at a press conference together with the head of the ukrainian security services
1:22 am
jointly they said that all this was done to foil some russian plot that was tipped off a couple of months ago that someone wanted to kill him and that somebody is now in custody and house being arrested as well that being said though it will have to wait and see what kind of evidence if any that they have to prove that this was a plot at all as the reaction from moscow i presume because they have been big should be blamed for some of of what russia is now in the standard fuel reus of being falsely accused of killing journalist russian foreign ministry spokeswoman as well has said that it's great news is alive but the whole operation of some is somewhat of a propagandist nature she called the scituate situation a masquerade and we've also had some strong words from reporters without borders they called this whole stage operation pathetic and regrettable regardless of what motives kiev say they were pursuing they also say that it was very dangerous for
1:23 am
a government to play with it but even if we look at the media reaction worldwide it simply being one of confusion let's take a look what on earth is showing him sort of very much a developing story we're obviously still getting information but it definitely is a very very bizarre one. certainly the russians will be quite angry at the fact that they've been accused of killing this man but in reality he is very much still alive as we're seeing now becky who is it's shocking in this will certainly only agrees to the middle of the a fake news conspiracist and didn't one of the twists is that cave in says that this was about falling as you said a russian plot to kill this journalist and it's not the first time is it that the russian government and been accused of trying to knock off journalists but also dennis has been killed in ukraine recently over the years and many cases fingers were quickly to be pointed at russia but it tends out that moscow didn't have anything to do with them let's take a look at fear of these examples. so
1:24 am
back to the current unexpected situation here and that with this latest bizarre twist now we're left questioning how much credibility we can actually put in camps words of the host of aussie show going underground afshin rattansi things the way some media outlets covered because they desk might undermine public trust in their reporting. it is at first sight bizarre i'm going to say journalists of course make
1:25 am
mistakes i've made my share of mistakes but even in that clip from c.n.n. which is our becky anderson the anchor there doesn't respond to the news that they've been reporting all day about a russian journalist death has been nonsense by saying we have to check a bit better in the way we do our journalism and the twitter lines of all the mainstream that so that famous phrase the so-called mainstream media saying russia is to blame for this how could they do this now they'll be people questioning their media whether they're going to be told the truth but certainly today's events are going to be they're going to be quoted for days months to come certainly during the world cup as a knee stories about russian involvement in murder in provocation in killing in who knows what else moscow is about to be accused of. well here's a quick recap of how the story unfolded from online project in case you missed it.

the e.u. budget commission it has apologized for a t.v. interview which he advised italians against voting for populist parties but i don't it's just my expectation is that the coming weeks will show that the markets government bonds and the economic development of italy could prove to be so drastic that this would be a possible signal for voters not to vote for populists on the left all right. well as he made those remarks after plans for a year or skeptic governing coalition were blocked by the president tally and political uncertainty has shocked financial markets worried about its nice possible exit from the euro but one of the leaders of it in his failed coalition in the region to my zero says that idea was never in the program. if the markets are worried italy it could leave the euro that's because someone has been saying this government wants to view it despite that never having been our plan. when the euro
1:28 am
skeptic coalition failed to form a government its leaders blamed pressure from the e.u. outies peter oliver has more on the role brussels has played in italy's political turmoil. on sunday night when sergio the reality italian president vetoed the proposal of a euro skeptic for the role of economy minister he essentially scrapped a coalition between the populists of the five star movement and leader nord but what he also did was he set a century center talian voters back to the polls he sent the markets crashing down and he sent accusations flying that the e.u. had put a bit of pressure on him to do just that well it also saw. the e.u. budget commissioner say that this down toilet this downturn in the markets was a message to italian voters for next time that if they vote with the euro skeptics then well they will see financial troubles on the horizon well mr has rode back
1:29 am
from those comments now but he was also criticized at the time by some of his closest allies donald the european council president and john claude young of the european commission president all saying this isn't the type of language you should be using as a member of the commission from the populist solve norden and the five star movement well they were outraged by mr ting his comment saying that he was the type of person that viewed italy just a place to go on holiday or sensually these comments from they played right into the hands of the euro skeptics because they're now getting ready for new elections which could come as soon as september they can now say to their voters look we said last time they were trying to take your sovereignty away look what they did when we tried to put in place a government in italy so it was ultimately left to the european commission president to try and smooth things over between the populists and euro skeptics in
1:30 am
italy and the commission in brussels it's in his fate does not lie in the hands of the financial markets regardless of which political party may be in in power. italy is a founding member of the european union that has contributed immensely to european integration the commission is ready to work with italy with responsibility and mutual respect italy deserves respect as i said those elections in italy could come as soon as september and between now one polling day will show to be a lot of people keeping an eye on what comments are coming out of brussels with regards to which feet which direction italy should proceed in the future well the euro skeptic coalition failed to form a government after the italian president rejected their choice of finance minister who was seen as anti european the president then appointed a pro europe prime minister so your math that alan has since granted italy's to pop
