journalist accuses a former network of his former network n.b.c. of trying to impede his pulitzer prize winning episode weinstein's alleged sexual abuses he also named hillary clinton among those standing in the way. back to the murdering a 9 year old girl is taken into custody hundreds have rallied in the central russian city of demanding the death penalty we spoke to the girls and. lisa was an ordinary sweet. and gymnastics just a sweet child. and us politicians celebrities and media express their sympathy for the kurds currently defending against a turkish offensive we look at whether the group is really valued by suppose that american supporters.

are broadcasting live studios in moscow this is our team international and thomas certainly got to. write in a new book a former n.b.c. news employee details the difficulties he faced trying to get to the network to run a sexual abuse exposé ronan farrow accuses the channel of trying to kill his 2017 investigation into the now disgraced hollywood producer harvey weinstein and claims also that even hillary clinton did her best to get in the way and reports. harvey weinstein the man who triggered the me too movement for more disturbing accusations emerged about hollywood executives are the one seen the most powerful man in hollywood was a serial predator or up to 67 accusers ranging from inappropriate touching to rape they've been sexually assaulted by this monster is terrible terrible advantage disgusting even the former 1st lady couldn't stay away because women stick together

i was shocked and appalled i was just 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 beacon 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 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 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 scandal i genuinely respect rodent'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 code 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 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 just their principles when the powerful start pressing i think his words can entirely be 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 on 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 their 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 is about as gerty as they caught she's right down there with harvey weinstein. the central russian city of saratov is in shock over the murder

of a 9 year old girl the suspect has been taken into custody after confirming is guilt now the man is a 35 year old local he claims he killed the girl fearing that the garage he used to belonging belonged to her parents and she would tell them hundreds have been protesting since the girl's body was found demanding the death penalty for the man . locals are mourning the deceased girl placing flowers where little lisa's body was

reportedly found we spoke to the girl's aunt in the family's 1st interview since the tragedy. using your piece it wasn't the ordinary sweet should adopt seeing in 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 told not to approach strangers want to respond to unknown man she was a good and sweet child he says grandmother coop me when they discovered she was not at school she said lisa had disappeared. right but they need to be formed such parties people started such and 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 people responded and it resulted in such a big. deal

for others that i express my deepest scratched you to the people it is an incredible response many thanks really he says mother is holding on as best she can you. see this week it's. all the children go to school that way when i saw that part for the 1st 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 johnny to 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 there was in the scaped attempt by i saw family members from the all all refugee camp in the region of northern syria attacked by turkey the escape attempt was caught on video cam security stopped them fleeing officials say

dozens of residents attacked to the exit gate of the camp where tens of thousands of eisel relatives are kept a spokesperson for the kurdish forces said the security situation in the area was critical since turkey began its offensive on northern syria on wednesday similar warnings have been raised not only by the kurds but internationally as well. the vision does not only threaten the reactivation revival of islamic states that has revived and activated its cells in chemistry and other areas where they're fighting on 2 fronts one against the turkish invasion and another against the organization. called the threat. well they're going to be escaping to europe where they want to go military action will undermine the security of the coalition partners namely the kurdish forces and risk protracted instability in syria providing 1st time to ground for their sergeants dash there are hundreds and thousands of i saw militants

where will they go this is a real threat to all of us the pentagon is denying any responsibility for i saw prisoners in the area insisting that it is turkey's 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. that particular come and find them safely god did or. 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. most of them to europe begins they brought up there and you would hope. that. there's not much to stop them coming to somebody

and simply they know their way to go back or to. another country is they managed to go through. this you believe that they have realized. 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 spring began on wednesday with turkey launching airstrikes on kurdish held positions prior to the operation the u.s. had withdrawn its forces in the area something kurds see as a betrayal the withdrawal sent shock waves across america with many condemning trumpet for turning his back on the allies but there seems to be double standards over the issue as an artist but i have comments. the kurds the heroes shout the people who couldn't point out on the map where the kurds live brave say the people who never have and never would fight alongside them how how

could try trai them say the people who couldn't care less about. it's just fashionable these days playing the cod 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. 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 sure to see an end right now on the frontier of the border point you saw was one of the 1st targets that the p.k. k. terrorist organization as you can see at that point there was a huge explosion that area is in the hands of the p.k. k. terrorist organization and we see an end price of the boundary approximately 70 meters away and the areas that you see around us all of them are in the hands of the b 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 worshiping kurds and the other c.n.n. 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 kurds surely this in syria 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 extremely long time fighting against terrorists powerful words from the daughter of the late 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 was mad that president obama pulled out of iraq you list unpatriotic cowards that feckless unpatriotic callid is also

your daddy meghan or have you not seen 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 i says with the help of the kurds we can't abandon the kurds now we can't turn it

over to turkey to think that will work is really oh really mr graham 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. case you're on the fence enjoy this it's a recording of a righteous senator speaking to pranksters who pretended to be the turkish minister of defense you know why p.g. kurdish problem is a real problem i told president trump a bomber made a huge mistake and relying on the y.p. g. kurds everything i worried about is come true and now we've got to make sure that turkey is protected from the spirit and syria sympathetic to the white p.g. problem and so's the president quite frankly it honestly seems like principles and

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 cooled out from under the rocks to use your hurt your pain your suffering for their own pathetic advantage. there hasn't been a deadly attack on a mosque in west africa more on that and other stories after a break this is in 2. the war in syria seems to be winding down with some syrians returning to their homeland but going back to a normal life now seems like a pipe dream after almost

a decade of proxy war this syrian old dooms 2 years of proceed peace. what politicians do. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and. want to. have to be right to be close it's like them before 3 of them all can't be good. interested in the why how. they sit.

back this is r.t. international at least 16 people have been killed in an attack on a mosque in the west african nation of brick you know. gunmen opened fire inside the building during friday prayers earlier my colleague jacqueline vogel discussed the issue with r.t. correspondents ask you taylor. 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 go 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 there has been battling in as you missed insurgency and

we're seeing the terror spill into for example mali which is in 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 a particular. wall for the islamists this is a hotspot is something they want to get their hands on because it's part of

a vast space called so how and this is a land that stretches from africa to coast all the way to our trailer 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 clear. trafficking root for both drugs and weapons from oh why her perception of what 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 on various nations including

the u.k. germany and space 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 too often just coming 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 building of pools 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 sitting influence in the region we are

seeing an increasing number of attacks just like this. ongoing syrian crisis in russia middle east policy. ties with the arab countries these are all just some of the topics touched upon in a far ranging interview given by vladimir putin to argue arabic. and the sky. we're abia we'll be showing you that full interview on sunday here on our to international but you will also be able to watch it at r.t. dot com is right preview. they stepped up the bill would 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. so that they can undermine or break down our cooperation with us then they are profoundly wrong the. big country like iran which has existed on its territory for thousands of years has its own interests and potions and iranians have lived here for centuries and we should respect those interests. but as our

butts of which if nuance and you need to have dialogue to understand each other to puzzle out all the nuances intricacies and 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 you. to all the forces deployed illegitimately inside any sovereign state in this case syria must leave this is true to everyone if syria's new illegitimate 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 are 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 in syria must be free from other states military presence and the territorial integrity of the syrian arab republic must be completely restored.

if 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. puts an interview comes ahead of his official visits to saudi arabia and united arab emirates which will be the 1st. since 2007 earlier russian a journalist visited the saudi oil refineries attacked last month the facilities are working again but some of the destruction is still visible well and trade along with a regional security are on president putin's agenda during his visit to saudi arabia . but as for now back now with more news you are watching much international stay with us. on the. world.

but just look. at this connection to last and ask for the last 70 and seeing and on monday for the dutch from. christian. bridge in just. does come the. asian community on long. beach is long. and i'm going to go so sit on the open much jamie momma is just back in there and.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy going for him to let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic. to follow only closely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. thinking of getting a new book on the ones we got in our ships no problem was he didn't know until he was trapped in this tiny little wired how much we don't need a crate with him he will just stir freaking out and she will want to spray him anywhere near. breeding dogs or caged in the into lane conditions on puppy farm i mean 67 years you know they've been locked up in a cage outside you see no protection from the weather the heat you know the cold

air the rain the snow the funder nothing they have no protection. to get what you. can get through kids. across the u.s. cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows on at stores most of the puppies that are coming from these large scale factory farming kind of operations are being sold and at stores even joined a good businesses are involved like agoa mom santa there has been a shocking amount of organized opposition to efforts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial breeding for so many most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with dogs don't buy dog.

hello this is max kaiser this is the kaiser report you remember the wizard of oz and dorothy said if you click your heels 3 times and say i want to be home you get home something like that and of course it's an allegory about the gold standard how apropos anyway just repeating the same entre over and over again has magical impacts stacey yes it has magical impacts throughout history of course during that time was a period of time similar to what ray deleo says we're going through again today then 1920 s. t. in 1930 s. and one of the theories or propaganda that emerged during that time is if you repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth so with that in mind here's a tweet from paul krugman nobel economics laureate debt is money we owe to ourselves debt is money we owe to ourselves debt is money we owe to ourselves that is money that it only makes us poor in aggregate if it crowds out investment which

is isn't doing that at our level of about the vote that at that at the thought that i see that's a straw man the cowardly lion dorothy or a munchkin you know but paul krugman is making a couple of bold 'd statements there number one that we only know money to ourselves and number 2 it's not crowding out productive investment and this is of all the outrageous really moronically things this guy has said this is gotta take the cake well of course on twitter if people write in all caps usually that's a sign of they're not very well up here so i think he seems to be doubting himself even he leaves an exit at the end which when he misspells you know if it only makes us poor in aggregate if it crowds out investment which is isn't doing.
