luma is leading the case with a group called freedom watch she's previously been banned from all kinds of online platforms from twitter and facebook to pipe our lawsuit also alleges the 4 tech giants violated the 1st amendment and u.s. anti monopoly laws have been a growing number of leaks and testimonies from those who worked for big tech alleging an anti conservative bias. even out blacklist where if someone. shows that there are conservative then they'll be blacklisted between different companies and different teams and that really needs to change i see google executives go to congress and say that it's not going to be good it is not political and i'm just so sure that's not true they're telling people that oh they don't they don't have any blacklist this is all you know they don't have any political ideology they don't have any political bias but it's really clear that they do the current legal concerns is that tech giants are allowed to moderate the content which appears on their sites or through their apps though they have denied
5:13 pm
any censorship. do you discriminate more on philosophy like anti conservative versus pro liberal you know our policies and our rhythms don't take into consideration any affiliation philosophy we're viewpoint there is absolutely no directive in any of the changes that we make to have a bias in anything that we do we use a robust methodology to reflect what is being said about any given topic that any particular time and we try to do it objective leave using a set of rubrics certainly if this happened to her this is happened to a lot of people and it's high time that the big tech giants were challenge to hunt this there's a confusion i think because americans love free speech and we love private property so we love for example when it's a company and we say well that company has a right to do anything it wants to but there comes a point where it's almost like
5:14 pm
a public utility because they have such a monopoly on communication in general especially in terms of social media so some of these giants that really do have control. they've changed the game you can only come to one conclusion when it seems to only happen against conservatives in general and and i think that this flies in the face of of our free speech and you know that for most of us in america we could agree that our 1st amendment speech right is critical to everything that is freedom and most of us would wish that some of these tech giants would go along with that we'll have more news for you just after this short break states you that are to international. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to guests of

5:17 pm
the child is very young and he's unable to independently care for himself or herself at all one putting in fact out of you that there is no greater responsibility and then by a parent to his or her char to care for the child to nurture the child and to protect the child from any harm or injury caring for the go was caring for a very young baby she couldn't sit up she couldn't speak any words she couldn't feed herself hold a bottle she couldn't play was to spend the day in her court running back and forth she couldn't roll over all the way. this case raises the question of whether it's appropriate to use vegan diets for small children despite the process some experts including those in the american academy of pediatrics think it is acceptable and can actually be good for children however not all agree with that we discussed the issue with judy moore a registered dietitian nutritionist and patrick oldham the founding director of the
5:18 pm
sustainable food trust. the contact between health as it is now with our health services is quite poor. and children aren't seeing nearly as regularly or as often as they used to day say 10 or 15 years a care and i think that's one of the problems that house physicists just can't keep keep an eye on the on the number of children that they've got in that case we need to keep a vigilant eye on people who for the probably the best reasons are misguided late beating their children on healthy diets it's possible to keep the child healthy a batch they do need supplements you can't just rely on if they can diet yes we need to eat less meat but don't give up together the right kind of meat and that's good for your health even if you do all that and you help and somebody helps you plan the very last you're channeling greg to the heights. genetically potential height because we believe that milk protein and meat processing also are
5:19 pm
trying to an important factor in growth probably very challenging and you have to be an expert in this to get it right and i would argue that perhaps it's not necessary to be quite so extreme as i have seen several reagan parents who come to me and say they want to bring up their challenge they get in and once we talk it through and i explain the implications of it and have plans for right to be in the planning of the doc most of them decide against it but i would say that most of them that i've seen race in a while either the last 2 or 3 years and not getting the going because of their environmental concerns there's a lot of worry about i would about what does that that is correct for addressing climate change and all the other problems with facing is what we would argue that it is possible to eat sustainably to include a whole range of sustainably produced livestock or what's in the diet without feeling a little guilty about it and probably your children would be better off of that
5:20 pm
avoid a vague and have. very young children and let the children decide when they're old enough maybe after their great spirit is finished with a trial let me begin to actually not and in the mean time allow them to eat a full. diet full of all the. food groups we can address climate change but he she will sustainably we can also already. in australia a former defense lawyer faces jail over the leak of controversial afghan files appeared in the supreme court on thursday for preliminary hearings even ride released classified material in 2017 alleging australian troops committed war crimes in afghanistan he was charged with breaching the country's the fence act and is expected to face trial next year he claims it was his duty to the australian public to make the documents available. i've got a few tricks up my sleeve it's worth having a go i might fail but i'll be happy in jail if i've tried among incidents reported
5:21 pm
in the so-called afghan files where the killing of a civilian man and his sons during a raid where it was alleged they were shot by mistake in another case an afghan detainee was shot dead while he was alone with an australian soldier they've macbride claim that before leaking information to the media he tried to bring it to the attention of officials whose efforts though were in vain we discussed the issue with former cia officer turned whistleblower john kiriakou. it's so typical it's so common in places like the united states the u.k. australia really the 5 eyes countries to attack the whistleblower rather than to address the crime and to to punish those who committed the crime there ought to be hard and fast whistleblower protection laws there are in many countries there is not in in australia but they really need to be legal protection so people can can go confidently to their supervisors or to their legislature or even to the media to
5:22 pm
report crimes in this case i think that that the australian soldiers involved were probably i'm not even sure how to say it but sucked into the same kind of of we're time situation that so many americans have been sucked into you think that you can get away with things you think that they are crimes and eventually there's going to be a whistleblower you know there's there's an old saying that the truth always comes out and i think that that is the case it was the case here it's been the case in the united states whether it cia or n.s.a. or f.b.i. the truth always comes out and so if you don't want trouble just do the right thing . john captain of a modern rescue boat in the mediterranean has snubbed the bravery award from france she says paris of hypocrisy given its treatment the refugees. we do not need authorities deciding about who is a hero and who is illegal at the same time your police is stealing blankets from

5:24 pm
to open a temporary reception center which some 13000 migrants said to have passed through and it's invested 40000 viewers in a restaurant to feed my kids if the paris mess says they would have done more but for the french government i do not understand why the government is allowing indignity and kiryas on the capital's doorstep between 700 and the 1200 migrants are sleeping rough in the streets in makeshift camps under bridges on roadsides where they're forced to leave in human conditions and does she have a point that the french state has repeatedly cleared migrant camps in paris but when one is dismantled sure enough another soon replaces it michael's government has also been criticised for a controversial asylum and immigration bill in a bid to limit new arrivals that law double to 90 days the time in which illegal

5:26 pm
the thousands of those in the major and maybe because oh exactly because of the so-called humanitarian probably see we should give them the evolution that they would be us and they won't be i mean they won't all be from my quince in no time be at the way that they treated to the activists not happy at the way to cool government to helping to local governments not being happy with the federal governments and those federal governments not happy with brussels brussels it seems is not how the only that it's one that huge circle going around and around but it's actually not getting anywhere. paris that's it for this hour the scene are back in 30 minutes time with the latest global news headlines.

he's challenging donald trump in the g.o.p. primaries the former 2 term republican governor best and chooses bill weld on this edition of politicking. politicking on larry king one certainty in the often erratic and unconventional presidency of donald trump is that the base of the reporter who republican party loves this man and this policies thus far that base has never wavered in this support forum so why was so many stand up and challenge the president and once the argument to switch candidates midstream let's find out as that man former 2 term republican governor of massachusetts bill weld joins us from. good to see a bill thinks great are great to be with you as always you know you know when i as

2 sets which this. they used to have and that worked and business confidence returned so employment went up and the unemployment rate went down and i cut spending because i hate deficit spending and that also helped get confidence from the employers and as we say the government level the best social program anybody ever invented is a job and so that's very rewarding bill you know you're up against it's. well i know that i'm up against a president who's very popular among the 50 state republican parties very very popular but the reason why is that those are the trump organizations and each of the 50 states after the election he put in his people so it's not surprising that he should have 99 to one popularity.
