again cameron. roughly once the show it's a move for the. future to videos and so on with the group you string it. down on string you don't roughly don't t.v. . ratings and salutation. nicholas johnson was f.c.c. commissioner in one nine hundred sixty nine when during a debate in t.v. guide with the president of c.b.s. news on the problem of course corporate censorship he stated many broadcasters are fighting now for free speech but for profitable speech and that corporate tampering

with the product of honest and capable journalists and creative writers and performers can be quite serious now here we sit in two thousand and eighteen and corporations of broadcasters of all sorts from t.v. to the internet have their foot on the chest of our free press the australian reported this week that facebook's head of news person or ship's former c.n.n. journalist campbell brown allegedly told around twenty or so broadcasters and publishers that we will help you revitalize journalism in a few years the reverse looks like i'll be holding your hands with your dying business like in a hospice of course facebook denies the claims telling business insider that these quotes are simply not accurate don't reflect the discussion we had in the meeting we know there's much more to do but our goal at facebook what the team works on every day with publishers and reporters around the world is to help journalism succeed and thrive both on our platform and off that means a new focus on building sustainable business models that's what the discussion was

about. however while facebook fiercely denies the claim citing a transcript them from the call they are refusing to release that transcript so there's no way for us to make that verify that claim it seems more than likely that facebook believes the nonsense they're spouting they've paid c.n.n. and fox news millions to create news content specifically for their platform they've sold our personal information to political operatives and they've partnered with partisan ideological think tanks to be the arbiters of speech here and around the world so combo we all use our freedom of expression and start watching the hawks. the older you get the sense that really this was. at the bottom. this is. what it looks like you know that i got. the please. let me. let.

me. i'm never going to walk on i'm tapped on wallace and joining me to discuss things but the latest in a very long line of bumps in the road as conservative commentator steve malzberg steve. how you do and good to be here. first i guess i want to ask you do you believe facebook's excuse that this was just taken out of contacts it was all about helping build the business of journalism no i mean there were the reports say that there were several witnesses to the to the exchange and they all back up what we have with you so i believe accurately reported and i don't put much faith in my personal opinion and what campbell brown has to say and look facebook has really become full of itself with the algorithms with the clamping

down of putting people in facebook prison and their newfound responsibility to make sure that all the real news is presented and decide what's proper journalism and i mean who are they and if we're going to rely on the likes of campbell brown and those under her facebook to shape and mold new from here going forward into the future while according to this story giving threats to the established publishers and news givers all over the world threatening them with the death of their of their industry we're in big trouble and it's you know you can see the f.c.c. chairman johnson from you know thirty forty years ago is warning the same thing and you've been quite outspoken about the corporate censorship specifically of conservative voices on facebook but this week was the one thing people started

noticing that a lot of what would be deemed sort of leftist quote unquote leftist websites but in places where the mainstream media doesn't like their narrative to be touched they've purged this week we've seen them take down the facebook pages of tellus or . venezuelan analysis dot com and haiti analysis dot com which were both in all independent outlets with a two to obviously not tell a story but these are independent media outlets that were porting on narratives and news that. isn't allowed on the mainstream here in the united states steve is this is this about pushing out independent media to make more premium space for corporations or is does this have any any smell to it that this is really about you know protecting us terrified americans from reading the wrong thing and thinking the wrong way. i just think we're all caught up in this hysteria but make no

mistake i don't think it has any i think they're using russia now and the suppose it bazza fake news and russian ones and the trolls and they want to sow discord in the united states and they're responsible for this and they're responsible for that they're using that as an excuse now by saying well we can't have more of that even though that is insane to think that there is that and to think that that could influence americans so they're taking it upon themselves and the left is now saying what you just said the mayor of new york the other day say wow life without fox news it would be so great because here's why fox news is bad here's why fox news is dangerous here's why fox discontent and you know what that is a very dangerous path to go down and the people who run facebook are on the left they may have closed down a few leftist sites that you were alluding to the people who run you know google and you tube and all these twitter there on the left the blasio is on the left i

don't hear people on the right in this country calling for you know the the censorship of news or thoughts or opinions or blogs at all so i think we're we're we're in big trouble now we're at a turning point right now very important point in the history of news and information and if we allow facebook and the others to threaten existing publishers of news and delivers of news and and really start censoring and deciding what's fit for americans to see and hear what's not fit for america. to see and hear weren't we were going to be in big trouble absolutely. the catholic church is front and center in the worst sexual abuse scandal the church has ever seen in the nation's history a new report by the u.s. government finds more than three hundred catholic priests sexually abused thousands of children in pennsylvania what's worse and there may be many many more

unaccounted for r.t. correspondent ashley banks has more. i do your investigation into the catholic church in pennsylvania reveals three hundred priests sexually abused more than a thousand children in four years what's worse is that a series of bishops cover it up the investigation covers six of pennsylvania's eight catholic diocese and found more than one thousand victims making this the largest examination by a government agency and the u.s. of child sexual abuse within the catholic church what's more alarming is that the grand jury is saying of that the number of sexually abused children is a much higher than what's being reported because a lot of files have been missing and a lot of kid didn't come forward because they were scared shortly after this report was released spins of being as attorney general held a press conference all of the victims were brushed aside in every part of the state by church leaders who preferred to protect the abusers and their institutions above

all priests were raped raping little boys and girls and the men of god who were responsible for them not only did nothing at all for decades the grand jury found that in order for the counseling courage to avoid bad publicity and financial liability a series of bishops had to hide the truth for years they even allowed priests to continue minister and then one case one of the breeze allegedly impregnated a gang girl and a range for her abortion for more than fifteen years now sexual abuse scandals have been shaking the catholic church and two thousand and q a news service where a catholic priest covered up more than one hundred sexual abuses in a boston church for years since then the catholic church has tried to find ways to prevent this from happening at this time the vatican hasn't put out a statement the grand jury wrote in its report despite some institute. you know

reform individual leaders of the term travel largely escaped public accountability because the statute of limitations you have that fired the report is unlikely to lead to a new one criminal charges or civil lawsuits but recently former archbishop philip wilson one of the most senior roman catholic cleric what's going to vick did and sentenced to home detention something arrivers are speaking off somebody in the catholic church so i sort of put walk million of those we is the contrition from former bishop wilson he's grown as somebody just sit ups these has shown no grace on the sword missiles but they have this feeling actually quite happy it's a custody the sentence that has been handed down. and he begins the sentence today so i mean he's the most senior cleric to have been found guilty sentenced and start since today although the statute of limitations has expired the grand

jury is urging the lawmakers to open up a simple window that will allow older victims to sue for damages and washington and actually banks are to be. steve let me ask you i mean i feel like i'm having deja vu you know during the eighty's and ninety's we went through this and it was incredibly painful and i mean i grew up sort of in the catholic church obviously one of those recovering types now but part of it was because watching that happen and not seeing priests and bishops and people in positions of power having anything happen to them when they when they covered up abuse and the truth is anybody who sort of was around you know in certain times or has been around it we know what happens we know these things have happened do you think that it's time for us just to sort of make laws specifically for this kind of thing to to make some kind of

legislation that you can't just wait it out ten years. and hope to hide. well you know on that one for hate crime laws i think you know god forbid if a relative is raped i don't want it to be considered lesser of a rape if the guy didn't say something to her that indicates he hated her for her whatever so i think there are laws and we have to just follow the laws but i mean you know the church in two thousand and one did undertake make an effort as eluded to and you know to make sure that these cases are reported to law enforcement and that the people responsible are held accountable and what we're talking about here you know i don't know of any recent cases or recent rash of cases so maybe and hopefully the church has made great progress and that's in that area but i would like to think that they have and i would like to think that if if there are reports of abuse it's a different landscape than it was back in the days that you're talking about and don't forget you know the states back to the one nine hundred forty s.

in some cases one hundred priests that are accuser dead of the three hundred so so a lot of this is passed however it's totally inexcusable you know there's a whole the whole i mean it's inconceivable whenever someone who should have the trust of a child abuses that trust in any way it's awful this is the ultimate abuse of that trust and that relationship and for the church to have covered it up i mean i wish there could be lawsuits and all that but the statute of limitations has expired you know and we should say that donald wuerl the. who is the cardinal of the archbishop the cardinal of the diocese of washington he was in pittsburgh as a bishop and he's been accused in this grand jury report of covering it up and he vehemently denies it for what that's worth but again it's not i'm going to leave it at that point i know and here we are going through this and you know it feels like we're doing it again but maybe it's one of things or you just have to say on these

things and it's not about a church or it's not one term. for the other anything like that it's about having bad people and when you cover it up and you don't deal with it it gets worse thank you so much for talking with me today stephen thank you you're welcome as we go to break all quaters don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter also that r t dot com coming up a new report shows that cancer causing fast is like life a say can be found in baby food and part two of the song stands interview with even got men on the chinese organ trade stay tuned to watching the hot. water bottle.

as we discussed earlier this week month santa was recently ordered to pay two hundred eighty nine million dollars after a dramatic trial over her citizens found in its roundup line of weed killer products and now a new shocking study shows the main ingredient sounded around the glyphosate is also found in many breakfast foods artie's zero monta orca explains.

according to the environmental work group or. the key ingredient in roundup sweet killing poison glyphosate is also found in popular oprah ticks and several breakfast foods including cereals marketed to children they found that the ingredient is present in forty three of the forty five cereals they tested and thirty one of those contained life estate levels well above the organizations health benchmark of one hundred sixty parts per billion i would like to say it was also found in organic oat although it was detected at a low level below the safe threshold but those that contain the highest levels of life estates were quaker old fashioned boat with levels higher than a thousand parts per billion popular children's brands like cheerios and lucky charms also found extremely high levels to put this into perspective e.w. g.'s child protective health benchmark for daily exposure of life to say and food is one hundred sixty part. per billion quaker oats contains seven hundred sixty

a statement from e.w. g. says ethiopia g.'s findings raise a prospect that millions of american children are being exposed to a suspected carcinogen at a time when their bodies are rapidly developing to say was also founded o't was and other snack bars while cereal and these easy breakfast foods have all been linked to all kinds of health benefits including lowering cholesterol and decrease cardiovascular risk they fail to mention the high risk of exposure to this carcinogen glad to see now in december the e.p.a. concluded that life is a is not likely to be carcinogenic to humans but this contradicts the both the world health organization and california state scientists have linked life estate to cancer political director of organic consumers association alexis baden mayer is also calling for retailers to take initiative. it takes time for the science to be

done and sadly people get sick and die in the meantime so we really need to use a precautionary approach and get these products off the marketplace quaker oats responded with a statement saying they are following e.p.a.'s guidelines e.w. g. is now urging the e.p.a. to review the findings and asking them to limit the use of quietus a on food crops in washington sarah montecito. with so much of our nation's capacity for moral outrage focused on the real and perceived villainy of democrats republicans. and of course the irreplaceable amoroso it's easy to forget that beyond the borders of our most recent most outrageous and most viral social media feed algorithm lies a vast sea of human rights abuses and tales of actual moral depravity that aren't as easy to die just as a political sex scandal or a president announcing his longtime staffer and friend as it turns out is actually

a low life dog so while many here in the land of the freedom and prosperity may still blown how president obama once launched a mediocre health care website will snatching your top choice of position away investigative author of the gottman has spent a career exploring a world where the issue isn't really run medical websites or crummy insurance plans but rather what appears to be a large scale scheme of human exploitation and body part trafficking johnstone sat down earlier to learn more about these allegations in the evidence behind them. now we have countless stories coals of people calling in to try to use hospitals and saying do you have foreign or goods for sale it was originally. pretending to be looking for a. liver or a heart and they said yes yes all that we have heard of this type and so forth but phone calls are not definitive because i lived in charge of for years and i know that the chinese. tend to on the phone sort of say whatever you want to hear

you have midgets yeah it's right whatever it is that you're asking for they might pretend they have the issue though is that a doctor dr cohen of national. taiwan university the surgeon there at the. he went to china actually looking into the price of organs for his clinic because he had a lot of elderly patients in the clinic and he got to know the doctors and he expressed some concern that you know these were these organs as were coming from prisoners who had committed terrible crimes and probably had lived on healthy lives and the doctors assured him it's a no no look we're a special friend all your patients will receive. organs from fallen gong these people they don't drink they don't smoke they practice this very healthy chico and so forth. and they will be healthy to go now. you know

he's now the mayor of type a and he sort of tried to deny this conversation or at least distance himself from this conversation during the campaign as politicians often well but but the point is that i actually got that in writing from that that story was correct and so i didn't pull that out until after the campaign was over we have other people as well and even some witnesses who are looking at now but i think the most persuasive part to me was the amount of people and i interviewed people across the world across the world who were refugees from labor camps and it slipped out somehow or other and they described these bizarre medical examinations where they were only looking at the retail organs ok so for example they would look at a doctor would shine a light in their eye for a long time it was really doing it you wouldn't do this test right and you would do a focus test nothing involving actual site. brain function because their interest

in the corneas they're interested in these two tissues here. now that when you hear that from falling going that's one thing because you might suspect well they've heard something about this they want to manipulate this interview process but when you hear it for a leader and you hear from a tibetan and you heard from house christian these are groups that don't talk to each other that's that's. that's you're you're you're so you're smiling and saying gunsmoke and after a while it becomes extremely persuasive and that is what i tried to do in my book was to tell real stories about real people not just to sort of a legal book that was already was done in the first publication i hope there was a bloody harvest which was a terrific book it will lay down the groundwork for all that came afterwards is by david kilgour davis two thousand and six banned in russia by the way very important as a extremist publication well here's the other extremist publication this is my book

came out in two thousand and fourteen and the three of us got together to do this major report in two thousand and sixteen. and the since then we have built a coalition of people who are not following dark tibetans house christians but are simply people who are interested in this problem and care about it and we've got quite a few here in the u.k. certainly people more and more people in america and australia new zealand and so forth but what's interesting is the you mention the falun gong are healthy clean living people so their organs are going to be healthier and basically better for donation purposes and for harvesting purposes obviously they're very pertly persecuted group in china you mention that the statistics on maybe a million who are currently in prison and certainly you have also other persecuted groups including the weaker in the muslims of western china you mentioned understood previously that that they have been blood tested basically. on masse by

the chinese government do you see that the government is now looking to them also muslims you know presumably or not drinking at you know avidly or at all and basically looking to them as the next round of organ harvesting. you really that's you're absolutely right sean that this is the question because one of the questions i get asked a lot is well hasn't china clean up their act and haven't they were formed because they came under tremendous pressure i mean there's congressional resolutions which have been passed the new york times has covered this story but six that they've done six articles on this story that's pretty significant ok when you start to get mainstream media jumping in here. you know tends to pay attention but. in fact it would really rational for the chinese communist party to change their ways but the evidence is that they have not because this testing blood testing of

weekers there are seventeen million years. now the public security bureau on a local level is claiming that they have actually done seventeen million blood tests and d.n.a. cheek swabs of the we curse of seventeen million men women children now those that could be for surveillance it could even be for health but it's also compasses compatible with tissue matching that is these people are now potentially donors they're part of that mass don't her relationship that china has which is if they're producing about one hundred thousand transplants per year they might need some of these people it's at least a threat and it's something we have to take account of now that alone would not be that disturbing evidence except that in the last three months we've learned that now half a million to a million we are now being detained in a political reeducation. ok that's a lot of people half a million to

a million those numbers are solid again they're coming from the public security bureau which is bragging about this on the local level. in their own communications finally we just learned and this really just came out this week i got a call from radio free asia which has the cracker weaker research team in washington and one of their reporters called me and she said they're building nine crematoriums in sion john in the first one just became operational it's near the room cheap and that crematoria is hiring fifty security guards. there let that sink in for a second i mean it's one thing if you have a crematorium you might need two or three security guards you know for maybe maybe four because people get sick sometimes right. why would you need fifty.

on august thirteenth one thousand sixty one and infamous wall was constructed by the german democratic republic separating the city of berlin germany into physiologically and ideologically officially it was called the. civil or anti-fascist protection rampart it was known to the world as the berlin wall and it's still good until it was formally brought down in germany reunified in one nine hundred ninety a community group and historian christian bormann discovered and eighteen metre section of the original wall in the district of the city built with the remains of homes destroyed during the second world war and barbed wire this section thought to be the last remaining piece of there were additional wall was never torn down because it was always forgotten constructed in haste and then when the much more robust berland wall was put up in a different location just left it and it turns out the christian borman has actually known about the wall since one thousand nine. nine but i've kept it secret

until the big game had certain that the eighty men or piece of history might get destroyed by developers here's the people who are secure in the preservation of our past as we look forward to a much more peaceful future preferably one without lots of walls that's our show for you today and remember everyone as much as my co-host always says in this world we are told or not love to not so i tell you while i love you take care of each other out there i'm tabitha wallace keep on watching those costs and have a great day and night everyone but.
