compromise your independence with a lot to say on the local fun club at hand if this was a custody battle siege in pain good get the kids the red carpets were rolled the bones plates chinese flanks were waved clearly papua new guinea has already been wooed by the middle kings but how do the other countries feel some analysts say the u.s. still has its trump card and despite all this america first talk many countries in the region still crave a slice of the american pie the truck to put it. recent or an excuse for small countries to are asked for additional help from the united states to hedge against china and i think this is wonderful news for the small countries despite this the division and disagreement between china and the us and the rivalry among them are escalating i think it is very much an opportunity rather than something i grew up i'm actually not bring up of because you provide
8:08 am

8:09 am
a globally acclaimed the russian series is trying indeed to influence young minds as jacqueline who good report. and that little sweetheart was matia from the cartoon in the bear originally russian the series has been translated into dozens of languages and won the hearts of millions across the globe but it turns out there may be a sinister side to the enduring little girl and her protective pet deep with me trying to. explain to me. right. now what russia has forgotten to mention there is that some cartoons are in fact evil putin propaganda yep according to a times u.k. article moshe is just another putin puppet. russia is funny steep. but also a plucky she punches
8:10 am
a bunch of weight is no fun fish to see. and i honestly don't know who should be more offended by that comparison so where's the evidence of the kremlin's influence well critics seem to be particularly worried about one scene and a single episode or moshe's seen wearing a soviet border guards hat. apparently that's meant to be a statement on russia's defense of its borders but even if we say that's true what kind of kid would pick up on that but hey it's best to start when they're young right the studio behind this propaganda masterpiece of course denies being influenced by the kremlin's hand saying they received no state funding but we did a bit of digging and found some ominous signs you simply can't ignore here comes the kremlin for all of two seconds that could easily be interpreted as a soviet red star to skies as an innocent christmas decoration and you may not
8:11 am
realize it but the weird hat that must have got on here is a traditional russian hat now i know those examples. aren't so much propaganda as they are just random russian things but that's all we could try but worry not it turns out the bear itself is a representation of russia as a whole you see bear you think russia right. the best symbolizes russia it's a fact it's a struggle for the minds part of a hybrid exposure in which a negative image of russia is replaced by a positive oh the horror the horror now you know what your children are being exposed to and can protect them accordingly. and the bear are not coming to invade your homeland masha and the bear is hybrid warfare. this british empire apologist
8:12 am
and who sums up american decadence at the coffee. my nephew is a watch in my shoes a very cute they don't seem to be particularly indoctrinated. i really really do not want to read more about how masha in the back is putin is propaganda. i can confirm that i watched two episodes of martian there when i was nine and i suddenly became a twitter bot he speaks russian. so there we go next facebook supremum ugh zuckerberg is under pressure from the firm's investors who wanted to step aside as chairman their patience is starting to with it in with him following a series of scandals of late over the past year which have plagued the social media behavior facebook is behaving like it's a special snowflake it's not it is a company and companies need to have a separation of church and c.e.o. that concentration of power creates a lot of defensiveness within the company it's an exercise in hyden that there is
8:13 am
a problem rather than admit in that there is a problem and set in their old map to fixing it. so the latest headline grabbing scandal to hit facebook a run in with billionaire philanthropist george soros as caleb maupin explains things are not going well for mark zuckerberg he's been involved at facebook in a wave of scandals involving privacy violations and data leaks and now protesters are outraged. at facebook our mission is to give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together more than two billion people come to our platform each month to stay connected with friends and family facebook is taking issue with a protest sign for training the zuck as an octopus with tentacles spreading all over the world they say that that imagery is anti-semitic however facebook had no problem playing the same card against the protesters they even hired a p.r.
8:14 am
firm facebook employed republican opposition research firm to discredit activists protesters in part linking him to the liberal finance you know george soros it also tapped his business relationships being a juror civil rights group to cause some criticism of the company's anti semitic yeah blame it on george soros the liberal billionaire known for splashing money on liberal causes now he's certainly no fan of facebook do you didn't have. to use nine hundred. neuwirth. to protect a society accused of consciousness is. dead after the tsunami in two manage. days and i don't know that but here's the irony when it came out that facebook was accusing soros of being the master manipulator behind the protesters soros then accused of facebook of anti-semitism you know they're also aware that
8:15 am
much of this hateful and blatantly false and anti semitic information is spread via facebook the notion that your company you'll go. actively engaged in the same behavior is frankly astonishing to me zuckerberg says that he's got nothing to do with the soros claims the p.r. firm was hired without his permission now they've been fired he says he has nothing but total respect for soros and billionaire to billionaire now the company does admit they did investigate soros connections to the protesters however they say it's got nothing to do with his jewish heritage to suggest this was an anti semitic attack is reprehensible and untrue both soros and zuckerberg say that the other guy is motivated by ethnic bigotry the same kind of ethnic bigotry to boot is your mind blown it should be able pop and r.t. new york which i can only destroyed legal analyst me to come tonight along with he says the often upset a blame game is really obscure and some real pretty serious issues with facebook

8:18 am
europe's energy landscape there's no other way around it's enough to keep twelve million european households heated during the winter months for example but again this is a huge economic project that will pay off years and years perhaps decades into the future but it does as like to be a putin said also increase europe's energy security he said he hopes that the pipeline will be its land portion will be laid at the same record breaking pace as the undersea portion was and he thanked his turkish counterpart for his efforts. but he's not but i want to thank the president of turkey mr. if the. police teachers school you for his political will and courage why because projects
