right of that content why did you want to just say get off our platform well look as a horn to some of this content can be i do think that it gets down to this principle of giving people a voice eventually though the get off our platform way to sort things out still prevailed ok and now it's time to meet the fact checkers journalists have found them in a tiny room at these guys h.q. got it at the end of the day facebook's not so happy with that online policeman's hat so zuck in co are outsourcing the digital share locks i'm being serious that's what they call themselves who are let me check where they come from a. link to nato with their help thirty two suspicious pages have already been sorted out the big ship was not turned around overnight. but i think that the have now given some opportunity to work with them and i hope that in the months when we have at least three other platforms in that we will see. a willingness to
11:31 am
collaborate with us to come up with a solution bravo and it's not just facebook or do one just as great one question though since already most americans head to social media to get their news when will freedom of speech ring a bell we talked to anthony bryan logan a political commentator who told us that if you have known liberal views you could well end up being censored. it feels like the only people they have the right to speak out are those who agree with the leftist principles if you are against lefties ideology any kind of way they find a way to demonize you they call you a conspiracy theories as you're promoting fake news we're coming more under the control of big corporations and a lot of these people who are in the government and corporations are kind of working together to colluding with each other any kind of extra regulation from the federal government will most certainly impact freedom of speech online there's going to be
11:32 am
a battle to try and corral the internet back and kind of maytree media staff format where you get your news curated for you and you don't have any kind of dissenting viewpoints. according to a new poll the reputation of news organizations is in decline and found that more than a quarter of u.s. citizens think the president should have the power to close media outlets deemed to be behaving badly. and not dispatched himself to the streets of new york. the american media just can't get over the anime of the people label first slapped onto it by donald trump a little while back anime of the people i think crosses a line i think it's reckless i respectfully ask that and this is a phrase that has a long historic provenance it goes back to the french revolution it goes back to stalin to mouth when the president attacks journalists we question his motivation at this point you could dismiss the comments simply as media oversensitivity or
11:33 am
bias against donald trump however whether it's media partisanship or trumps behavior it seems pretty clear that public support for freedom of the press is stark now at this point less than half of americans say they believe the mainstream media is working hard to engage in honest reporting now what's more shocking is that twenty six percent of americans more than a quarter say they believe that the president should have the authority to shut down any media outlet that isn't gauging in what they call bad behavior now it's not surprising that most of these lidia's haters are republicans and it's no secret what outlets they want to shut down. do you think that's surprising to you do you think a lot of americans agree that the media outlets should be shut down i do i think they're smart if you're smart and you have a good mindset where you see different things then you would know things like that obviously should be shut down especially if they're not telling the whole story
11:34 am
that's a joke that's a joke once again this go back to page one freedom what the press led to in appearing to those twenty six percent mean that you know the constitution i'll be blunt i don't think the pressure be closed down but it doesn't mean we have to read it or pay attention to it i just block it out. don't really know what their definition of bad behavior means if there is a clear definition of bad behavior and no maybe i'd agree with that. of course if there are. some. that i don't agree with them and then maybe they should be looked at more in depth. in terms of shutting them down off the jerk reactions no i don't agree with it now seems that the first amendment is the first thing that many americans want to be amending. our see new york. wiki leaks legal team has right trash can with the security of the whistle
11:35 am
blowing site's founder julian assange that's after the us senate committee looking into alleged russian interference in the twenty sixth elections requested that he testify we can show you the letter that was sent to the ecuadorian embassy where a song just holed up inviting him to a close interview he says the meeting can take place today mutual mutually agreeable time and place but as lawyers all cautious as the u.s. is seeking to extradite him over his revelations is a quick reminder of some of those revelations. about.
11:36 am
the two. don't be sorry for what any leader of the millions of those who are. with you we can walk like a hostile intelligence or hard like a hard old girl. and
11:37 am
we discussed the issue with our former m i five agent i mean she thinks the u.s. going after a silence for publishing classified information creates a very dangerous precedent i'm sure that after seventy years mewed up in the ecuadorian embassy he wants to give his side of the story he does know exactly what happened he must be absolutely frustrated about the. the the lies and the misses being created around russia gate so i can understand his temptation to give evidence even to a closed hearing which is difficult i mean the whole you know ethos of wiki leaks is to be open and transparent and to bring information out to the public good so it's a difficult one for him i think but let's bear in mind as well that you know putting aside wherever this information came from wiki leaks is a publisher it is a high tech publisher but it's his publisher in the same way that the new york times the washington post and the guardian has been a publisher of similar stories so if they are going to go after him as
11:38 am
a publisher of embarrassing information for the american government then surely they have to go after the old legacy media for publishing the very same information and this is what the old legacy media should be standing up and speaking out against and fighting against because if we can lease goes down because of these arguments then they are vulnerable to that is the end of our free media that's the end of our free speech program continues in just about.
11:39 am
we have no idea what safety is doing on vacation but she will be back on air in september. with manufactured. public wealth. when the ruling classes some protect themselves. in the final. nor middle of the room. twenty past in moscow a tribe living on easter island wants to negotiate there were a ton of
11:40 am
a sacred statue taken by the british navy and presented as a gift to queen victoria the statue ended up in the british museum where arranged today aussies anastasio a truck and i asked the visitors if the relic should be retired. hosting an estimated eight million objects the british museum is one of the world's best known collections of art history and culture and often the subject a fiery debate about whether optic source during the british empire is colonial times should be returned to where they came from. the latest dispute ironically involves a statue called vost or stolen friend a fitting name to the indigenous people of easter island or trying to recover
11:41 am
a unique figure taken one hundred fifty years ago and given to queen victoria who then give to get to the museum this is reportedly being negotiated as we speak. the circumstances have changed that there's a possibility to discuss the stones a time to chile with the museum and the british government the british museum attract scores of tourists so it's not surprising the museum is putting up a fight claiming their better preserved under its own watch sometimes offering temporary loans as a compromise but what do the visitors think let's find out she had a really speaking i would say it should be returned i think it's part of our heritage so just history we've got over this whole kind of colonialist british empire thing and stuff these periods but it's rare and this museum is very well operated and so i think like staying here you would be at infante too so you're leaning a little bit more towards just letting them stay here. i stand firmly on the fence
11:42 am
i mean i can see the benefits of post to be honest i mean if they went away we wouldn't see them here and we would be able to appreciate do you think it's realistic to expect that a place like this would return some of the you know some of the most famous pieces are ones that were kind of brought here under question of oh it was a stone navy. and you political party in south africa has made headlines off the banning whites and foreigners from becoming that. investigates. after the death of nelson mandela there has been an increase in racial politics and incitement here in south africa and now as the country starts preparing for elections to be held at the beginning of next year one new party has emerged that only for black people the muslim african congress says that its goal is to restore the ideals of african people it's gone as far as to say our membership is not open to anything that looks white this is a far cry from how mandela saw the rainbow nation you have to look to it in the
11:43 am
cities in europe so i don't think it's a good concept i don't think it's something that will work here though going backwards obviously by just like that too we shouldn't allow them in south africa most parties are fighting for is unity in south africa but not having a party that now takes only black people sort of like promotes racism it's become popular in south africa particularly among the white community to talk about reverse racism in other words discrimination against white people was once people of color were denied jobs education and political power the tables have now turned and many whites complained of being overlooked because of black economic empowerment policies ironically many south africans once felt they were not quite enough today there are those who feel they are not black enough police here are teeth johannesburg. and earlier i spoke to the leader of that political party mentioned bi-polar he told me that his aim is to restore historical justice in south africa south africa. and office social change especially
11:44 am
the native people of our land to say to the realities that. people in south africa still and less at this stage in time they are people of south africa yes you know at this stage in time and we believe that south africa needs a massive shift from the colonial system that seeks to deprive the native child of day out over. the long. it's like the. economy where we understand your country is about to allow a taking land from white farmers with no compensation it's not such a good idea because when you think about what's been happening in nearby zimbabwe the country began to decline after a very similar measure taking the land away from white farmers but then the people who the land was given to they didn't bother to work their land we believe that their government of pity in south africa hasn't done enough to look up a city to the people of our land to where they live and also intrude we should
11:45 am
