valued by this supposed american supporters. thanks for joining us here on r.t. . in a new book a former n.b.c. news employee details the difficulties he faced trying to get the network to run a sexual abuse exposé ronan farrow accuses the channel of trying to kill this 2017 investigation into the now disgraced hollywood producer harvey weinstein and claims too that even hillary clinton did her best to get in the way explains. harvey weinstein the man who triggered the me too movement for more disturbing accusations emerged about hollywood executives are the weinstein the most powerful man in hollywood was a serial predator up to 67 accusers ranging from inappropriate touching to rape they've been sexually assaulted by this monster is terrible terrible advantage
4:02 pm
disgusting even the former 1st lady couldn't stay away because women stick together i was shocked and appalled i was sick i was shocked i was appalled the issue really is how terrible his behavior was and finally women have come forward to speak out about it this almost became a story that could have been because the investigation into weinstein and the rape allegations was almost killed by a channel that considers itself to be a big hit of women's rights there has been no clear example this year of journalism's ability to change the world training films do almost nothing to stop the harassment when it comes to women and sexual harassment and a topic you know i care a lot about it appears need to movement has finally hit wall street ronan farrow a pulitzer winning journalist says that n.b.c. wanted to end these investigations they ordered
4:03 pm
a hard stop to reporting they told me and a producer working on this that we should not take a single call they told us to cancel interviews the question for years has been why why because the network got a call from a certain harvey yes the same harvey harvey weinstein who threatened to expose matt lauer's nefarious activities if the story saw the light of day well it did anyway and farrow went to the new yorker and he even wrote a book catch and kill weinstein made it known to the network that he was a well behaved and capable of revealing it and it looks like hillary clinton didn't want pharaoh's investigation to be published either her of all people hillary clinton had scheduled an interview all of us at the head of the. weinstein reporting and her folks got in touch and said we're working out a big story sounded very concerned and tried to cancel that interview over the weinstein over the weinstein stuff there are claims that clinton's publicist approached him and pressured him to drop the story that what he says was weinstein's behest clinton's press people tried to distance themselves from the
4:04 pm
scandal i genuinely respect roman's work but have no idea what weinstein was saying to people to save himself what i do know is simple i've already rejected the weinstein co proposed dog about the election before talking to if i misrepresented facts it wouldn't be the 1st time and b c denied any wrongdoing and b c news signed the harvey weinstein's story to ruin and we completely supported it over many months with resources but financial and editorial of to 7 months without one victim witness on the record he simply didn't have a story that my standard for broadcast no that's of any major news organization now for n.b.c. to say that ronan farrow didn't have a story has got to be embarrassing at this point not only did he expose the rich and powerful but he got a pulitzer prize for doing it makes you wonder if news outlets ditch their principles when the powerful start pressing i think his words can entirely be
4:05 pm
trusted i think what we're seeing right now is just the advancement of fake news in america you know it's like the president said just last week it's no longer fake news it's now corrupt news and n.b.c. has jumped right on that train you would think that these liberals would be all about this being that they preach social justice and feminism and women's rights but the reality is that these people have deep pockets i think that hillary clinton is only about women's rights when it's convenient for her so when you have somebody like weinstein who is able to contribute to the democratic party and able to you know have the media and his pockets because of the amount of money he has the agenda for these democrats goes out the window we've been shown this. time and time again that money talks over policy so they can pretend that the policy is something that they want it here too but the reality is when their friends have money and their friends can finance their campaigns and finance their agendas they play dirty and i think hillary clinton's about as dirty as they come she's right down there
4:06 pm
with harvey weinstein. the central russian city of serato is in shock over the murder of a 9 year old girl the suspect has been taken into custody after confirming his guilt. this but suspect is a 35 year old local man who claims he killed the girl fearing that the carrot she used belonged to her parents and that she would tell them hundreds of protested since the girl's body was found demanding the death penalty for the suspect. it was such a good. thing that the. locals
4:07 pm
have been mourning the deceased girl placing flowers where little lisa's body was reportedly found we spoke to the girl's aren't the family's 1st interview given since the tragic. lisa was an ordinary sweetheart should adopt seeing and gymnastics just a sweet child i'm not sure she would talk to strangers on the street she was an open and trusting child but she was taught not to approach strangers or to respond to unknown man she was a good and sweet child he says grandmother called me when they discovered she was not at school she said lisa had disappeared. but the day needed to form such parties people started searching all along that path but it was all in vain we did not expect such a public reaction we simply began to post requests for help on social media and
4:08 pm
people responded and it resulted in such a big. brother that i expressed my deepest scratch teach the people it is an incredible response many. thanks really lisa's mother is holding on as best. she did with. all the children go to school that way when i saw that part for the past time i was shocked it was terrible i understand the anger of some people they ask why let a child go along that path but a lot of children use it every day he said was i'm lucky officials have promised to ensure the janitor school is safe and i hope the measures will be taken but we will not sit back he says mother will write to them again and again. kurdish officials say that there was an escape attempt by isis family members from the whole refugee camp in the region of northern syria attacked by turkey escape
4:09 pm
attempts caught on video cam security did manage to stop them from fleeing officials dozens of residents attacked the exit gate of the camp where tens of thousands of isis relatives are stationed a spokesperson for the kurdish forces said the security situation in the area is critical since turkey began its offensive on northern syria on wednesday similar warnings have been raised not only by kurds also internationally as well. the version does not only threaten the reactivation or revival of islamic states but has revived and activated it stills in chemistry and other areas where they're fighting on 2 fronts one against the turkish invasion and another against the sure but as asian. statement poll the threat. well they're going to be escaping to europe search where they want to go military action will undermine the security of the coalition partners namely the kurdish forces and risk protect it is stability
4:10 pm
in northeast syria providing fertile ground for did a surgeon's. hundreds and thousands of eyesore militants where will they go this is a real threat to all of us pentagon is denying any responsibility for isis prisoners in the area insisting that this turkish job. as i understand it the united states has no legal responsibility for those detainees the turkish military has responsibility not only for the prisoners for collateral damage military says all the rest of it in the areas in which they're conducting a large scale military operation there is big doubt that he would be able to do with that 1st of all will arrive to that particular camp and find them safely guarded all will be most of them gun or even if. i mean many students that how they will deal with them their main road has to be on the europeans taking consideration these members most of them are europeans they
4:11 pm
brought up there in europe and that. did not do much to stop them coming to syria and simply they know their way to go back or to put it to another country is they managed to go through yes through this they managed to believe that they have realized syria so they could be as well they could leave that place and go somewhere we don't know to europe to other countries we don't know for sure that are at risk. operation peace began on wednesday with turkey launching airstrikes on kurdish held positions prior to the operation the u.s. had withdrawn its forces from the area something could have seen as a betrayal the withdrawal sent shock waves across america 2 with many condemning trump for turning his back on the country's allies that may have been some double standards of the issues because d.f. explains. the kurds a hero's shout the people who couldn't point out on the map where the kurds live
4:12 pm
brave say the people who never have and never would fight alongside them how how could try betray them say the people who couldn't care less about. it's just fashionable these days playing the card using them to get attention for pathetic little political games where is the honesty is the truth. well let's try c.n.n. in this case you're looking at not only betraying the kurds and betraying some of our other allies in the gulf region what the president has done to the kurds the betrayal of the kurds to be butchered by the turks. are the ground forces that destroyed the caliphate with american air power we've abandoned them there breaks my heart the message is clear c.n.n.
4:13 pm
stand by the kurds or well rather some cnn's other cnn's want those terrible kurdish terrorists stamped out as soon as possible to send out to people who are. right now on the frontier of the border point you saw was one of the 1st targets of the p.k. k. terrorist organization as you can see at that point there was a huge explosion in that area in the hands of the p.k. k. terrorist organization and we see an end price of the boundary approximately 70 meters away in the areas that you see around us all of them are in the hands of the p.k. k. terrorist organization. absolutely remarkable c.n.n. turk license is the name on the condition that they adhere to cnn's strict journalism standards so how how did the same journalistic standards and with one c.n.n. almost worshipping kurds and the other c.n.n.
4:14 pm
all but cheering their deaths but come on. picking an easy targets what sane person trust journalists these days scratch the journalists what about celebrities with their newfound admiration for. surely there sincere i want you to ask can there is blood on anyone's hand starting with has a president trying to is letting this happen because these people are being slaughtered after standing with our troops in the middle east for a long time fighting against terrorists powerful words from the door the village john mccain like father like daughter but i've been so mad this morning and so upset about this news that we are abandoning our kurdish allies in the middle east these are allies of ours that american soldiers are still continuing to fight alongside all we did was arm them and they fought for america and to everyone in the white house and every republican who is mad at president obama pulled out of
4:15 pm
iraq you unpatriotic cowards that feckless unpatriotic callid is also your daddy meghan if you not see this photo there is your father and next to him is syrian rebel commander general salim idriss who your daddy did his best and train who is now eradicating those same kurds we are ready for the operation to the east of the free t. s. these lands are currently under the control of the syrian democratic forces group which includes the kurdistan workers party ringleaders these terrorists occupying our homes but c'mon meghan mccain isn't john mccain she may have reason to fame entirely for being his daughter that doesn't mean she have different opinions again last example justify this contradicting yourself we destroyed
4:16 pm
it. i says with the help of the kurds we can't abandon all oh really mr graham it seems like there's 2 possibilities either the senator really supports the kurds with his heart or he's just another spineless hypocrite using the kurds to score cheap political points in case you're on the fence enjoy this it's the recording of a righteous senator speaking to pranksters who pretended to be the turkish minister of defense your y.p. g. kurdish problem is a real problem i told president trump the obama made a huge mistake and relying on the why p.g. kurds everything i worried about has come true and now we've got to make sure that turkey is protected from the spirit in syria sympathetic to the white p.g. problem and those to prosper quite frankly it honestly seems like principles and
4:17 pm
integrity going extinct i feel sorry for you abandoned by your allies facing invasion death and on top of all of that every 2 faced hypocrite has crawled out from under the rocks to use your hurt your pain your suffering for their own pathetic advantage. for the deadly attack on a mosque in western africa will bring that story a more after this break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic to follow can only. exist i
4:18 pm
don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. what politicians do. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to. have to go to beatrice that's what i'm up for 3 in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of the how. things should.
4:19 pm
be 60 people have been killed in an attack on a mosque in the west african nation of bikini gunmen opened fire inside the building during friday press discussed the issue with. while reports have just come in as you said 16 people have been killed and 2 others seriously injured in a mosque attack in kenya faso this actually happened late on friday though only now beginning to piece together the story because there's very little information even now what we do know is that a number of unidentified gunman opened fire in a mosque in a village in the rules of the west african country and this is not the only country suffering from attacks well no again we don't know anything about the motives of the group involved in this particular attack but we can say that the incident is a rat in the region i mean faster has been battling in his the midst insurgency and we're seeing the terror spill into for example mali which is in
4:20 pm
a conflict with the hardest. and in fact to the very start of october we saw one of the deadliest attacks in the region in recent times and that was off to mali and army bases on the border with turkey with targeted not result in the death of 8 soldiers and several dozens all still missing as is often an affiliate of al qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack this of course led to heightened pressure on the 1000000 government from its people who say that not enough is being done to tackle the issue of the is a missed insurgency and this frustration was really bolstered by cries of several other west african countries who are worried about the spillover into within their own borders why are particularly so while for the islamists this is a hotspot it's something they want to get their hands on because it's part of a vast space called and this is
4:21 pm
a land that stretches from africa's coast all the way to our trainer and for them they believe that if they can establish their presence in that region and gain access to certain major ports they'll be able to establish a clue. trafficking route for both drugs and weapons from a wider perception of what's the international reaction to what's going on in the region while the international community would argue that it's doing its best to try and calm the conflict the e.u. for example is committed to building security in the region and it's keen to prevent any spillover of crime terrorism and crucially migration it is of course in the europeans interest. to get to the root of the issue so that they do not have any mass migration to the continent which is obviously as we well know a controversial and divisive political issue in europe since 2015 the french for example of got boots on the ground on the ground and various nations including the
4:22 pm
u.k. germany and spain send in surveillance aircraft they've been a bit more hesitant to send in troops but there's been little success from these efforts because the contributions are widely considered small poorly coordinated to often just come too late and that's possible was a sort of final point where the cynics would say that international efforts to help including providing aid as well as troops are part of a wider geopolitical game the u.s. and china for example are both keen to gain influence all across africa since it provides an amazing opportunity for infrastructure including the voting of ports of railways of roads china is actually slightly ahead in the race for sort of trade and influence in the region so a lot of political issues in play here africa is important strategically and unfortunately all these major powers of just looking for influence in the region we are seeing an increasing number of attacks just like this. the ongoing
4:23 pm
syrian crisis russia's middle east policy and economic ties with our countries these are some of the topics to the pond in a forensic interview given by vladimir putin to r.t. arabic and sky news arabia will show the interview full on sunday here on r.t. international you can watch it with r.t. dot com is a quick preview. they stepped out of the woods 1st if anyone thinks that seizing tank is an attacking oil infrastructure can in any way affect cooperation between russia and iran friends saudi arabia and the u.a.e. that they can undermine or break down our cooperation with opec plus then they are profoundly wrong so. you're a big country like iran which has existed on its territory for thousands of years it has its own interests persians and iranians have lived here for centuries and we should respect those interests. but as i wouldn't sit with you you need to have dialogue to understand each other to puzzle out all the nuances intricacies and
4:24 pm
issues without dialogue you cannot solve any problem that is why i think i can share the concerns of the u.a.e. and saudi arabia but in the case of bilateral issues it is up to them to resolve them which is to say you. are all the forces deployed illegitimately inside any sovereign state in this case syria must leave this is true for everyone if syria's new legitimate government chooses to say that they have no more need for russia's military presence this way just as true for russia right now we're discussing this openly with all our partners including iran and turkey and we spoke about it with our american partners many times and i will be open with you as i have been with my counterparts syria must be free from other states military presence and the territorial integrity of the syrian arab republic must be completely restored. you work for russia today don't you while it is because of people like you that russia were accused of meddling in the election.
