6:05 am
develop the willingness to. really act not to be doing cummins and saying every day that we had really good very much concern the extremely concerned. we should be able to. well the real takeaway from this is really security conference so is that it's well impasse that divide that seems to be opening up between the european nations like france and germany and the united states on where they see the future role of western nations in the world. many thanks update there from munich from our correspondent peter viles of. russian shock artist welcomed as a hero and granted political asylum in france is now at the center of a political scandal that france lawmakers are demanding people to be returns to russia after his arrest over posting footage that brought down president candidate the mayor of paris explains. pub lenski is
6:06 am
a political refugee here in france but it seems even he is too hot to handle with these latest allegations even members of my own party and are calling for him to be sent back to russia. get this guy out he's a political refugee he behaves like a boss did the 1st thing to do would be to put him on a plane straight to russia and he will see with mr putin if you can do this kind of crap if this comes after the latest scandal involving pawlenty ski this follows the dissemination of videos and photos on the internet last week of benjamin a key ally of president matt go on his former spokesperson and the man that he wanted to be the next mayor of paris the race taking place just a few weeks from now he was forced to stand down on friday following the release of those videos which is said to be about him now linsky and his partner were
6:07 am
taken in by the police and they were questioned in regards to those videos questioned into invasion of privacy and broadcasting videos of a sexual nature without the permission of the person who is in those videos he now faces possible criminal charges in regards to that the interior minister here in france has said he should face the full weight of the law broadcasting a certain videos without the consent of the author or subject to criminal sanctions in our country resulting in a substantial fine and 2 years imprisonment and these offenses must obviously be prosecuted it is a matter of respect for democratic rules and this is not the 1st time that pawlenty ski has been headline news here in france he was recently accused of brandishing a weapon a knife or to new year's eve party and of injuring 2 of the party goers at that.
6:08 am
vente further back he was also found guilty of sexing like to the doors of the bank of france in the area in fact he is currently serving a suspended sentence for that criminal act in france and that comes after a series of stunts that he pulls in russia of a similar criminal nature. russia
6:09 am
it's sometimes difficult to be and. yes especially for one makes a political declaration out of his art that's the case of for that probably and here we already know and he's just been arrested for setting the door of the former k.g.b. building on fire so it's not clear where the pov linsky will be sent back to russia chucked out of france or whether he will face the music here and those possible criminal charges what we do know is that his political asylum here has become an embarrassment to the french authorities. now if you've ever thrown away your old mobile phone and not given a 2nd thought to where it ends up there's a chance that it was sent to electronic waste to ghana where it's burned and releases highly toxic chemicals causing cancer and other deadly diseases the country's become africa's most polluted dumping ground for all electronic devices from the west.
6:10 am
don't you follow old would. do anything. noble to deal with such as you said today being so i've come from the margins of the further out of sync it was simply was put through the wall was in my head my head the cause that he did end up in a page. of the writing from the european room. for the reader

will have written a negative online review of a company at some time or another but under australia's strict defamation laws that could land you in real trouble in a groundbreaking ruling google's been ordered to amass the identity of an online user who criticize the dental practice now the anonymous review a warm day teeth whitening service was extremely uncomfortable the dentist says his business was affected by that but google initially refused to take down said comments and dentists lawyer says the company's reputation should not be unfairly damaged i believe it's extremely unfair that people are allowed to anonymously attack on is hardworking small businesses we think google has a duty of care to australian small businesses and business is globally for allowing these reviews to go on this ruling is groundbreaking google has historically argued that it is not responsible for user generated content and is only taken down negative posts when ordered to do so by the courts and australian law businesses
6:13 am
with fewer than 10 employees can sue over statements that could damage the company's reputation paving the way for possible defamation cases against tech giants r.t. has reached out to google for comment on the case we will let you know if they reply google has already faced numerous such cases in australia just this month the barrister was awarded half a $1000000.00 over online comments claiming that he gave false and misleading advice and in july of last year the tech giant was faced with a contempt of court charges that was for failing to remove reviews about a high profile sydney businessman we debated this issue with broadcaster karen turk in journalist and commentator chadwick moore. this guy had one negative review and this is how he wants to get the courts involved you want to put this in google you want to sue the guy i mean just take care of your own business right it's sort of ridiculous and this is also a massive slippery slope how long if we keep up this culture until you're no longer allowed to criticize google itself or if you do you're some other massive
6:14 am
corporation i'm also all for free speech by you know it's given people a mask to hide behind and they're not taking responsibility for what's being posted and they are hurting innocent people and this is becoming way too widespread dentist to be comes up is foolish if not a bit unhinged if he thinks the good idea to be going after a troll on the internet now when someone's looking for a dentist their neighborhood they might google this guy and think do i want to go to the guy who's bringing the courts down on the troll on the internet or maybe i'll go to the dentist on the street instead now i don't agree i think that you know we are in an environment right now that's so divisive and there's these people out there that just love to hate and they're just looking for something and i would be the 1st person to walk in and get teeth whitening from this dentist based on this because i feel very bad for what happened to him and i think we're just in an environment where we have to find a way to make people own the things that they're going to post that this is a prob that sort of the free market and just basic social etiquette is all that
6:15 am
itself because when you have someone anonymous on the internet they automatically are not taken as seriously as someone who's putting themselves out there i actually have faith in my fellow man that man and woman that they're smart enough and discerning enough to know when something seems a bit off and to know it's anonymous that maybe you don't take that person as seriously i would love to have faith in people and say you know that we're going to police ourselves and that it's going to stop this problem one of the problems that we have is we have this whole mentality of fake news and this cancel culture where you can completely ruin someone over a personal agenda the longer that we allow people to hide behind their screens and be keyboard warriors the. more of this is spinning out of control but we have to find a way to control this the only way to do it is have validated profiles where people have to actually post who they are and there has to be some way to validate that there is a huge problem with defamation with people being have their lives destroyed on the internet but if you start trying to regulate all of this regulation and all of this
6:16 am
forcing only goes in one direction but sun power these companies anymore they have so much power why don't we just all decide maybe we don't need to read these reviews on google maybe ask your your friends or family members say i need a dentist you've got someone you could recommend maybe that's the way forward 'd because the more we started with these vast complicated companies and the more regulation and speech it's such a spiral and they already have too much power and influence our lives anyway don't pay. them you know the tilt of top cyclists distilled peterson tells us why he came to russia full treatment to the press. what the pope says has to do so. they put themselves on the line they did accept
6:17 am
the reject. so if you want to express. some want to us. to go on the press this is what the 3 of the people that i'm interested in the way. that. we're still in an era of resource colonialism again this is a big risk and the one big thing that could really inhibit the kind of electric vehicle revolution that a lot of us want to see is if we can resource. the battery components in a sustainable ethical way then it's not going to be a successful revolution. western
6:18 am
doctors overprescribe drugs that's why one of the world's most renowned psychologist jordan peterson went to russia for treatment his daughter was told that to lottie's that's on the boy he's been undergoing detox treatment in this country after being misdiagnosed in several american hospitals. i've had hundreds and hundreds of people reach out telling me they've had the same experience with benzodiazepines so i think that there's a huge misunderstanding about the dangers of physical dependence regarding specifically this class of drugs north america the medical industry is heavily like wow if you go to medical school a lot of the courses to take are backed by the pharmaceutical companies part of the reason we thought russia was a good option is because the medical system here isn't as backed by pharmaceutical companies as it is in north america people who are meaning well go to med school
6:19 am
medical school and are perhaps taught by the wrong people and then end up over prescribing. we kill a fetus and the father suffers in extreme mood to immune reaction to being prescribed a higher dose of into exotic pills that he almost died but is now recovering all of these are trying to pick up the story. what is the price of living a life like that of jordan peterson a number of emotional breakdowns by the canadian who's become known as the world's top self-help guru have been caught on camera the other comes up to. say look i've been listening to what you've been seeing for 6 months and it's changed my life you started cleaning up my room and telling the truth just one of frank you for helping me you'd think a widely cited academic and author of the global bestseller explaining how to fix your life wouldn't have any problems with keeping his old in order but lately professor peterson's been in
6:20 am
a real trouble with his health this is what his daughter has told us in 2017 there was a really terrible auto immune reaction to it and he went to our family doctor and was prescribed and he took it for a number of weeks and then became physically dependent which we weren't aware of until earlier this year when my mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer. his dose of and was increased and he realized he was experiencing not only a paradoxical reaction which is when the medication does the opposite of what it's supposed to but he had also become physically dependent so we tried to get out he tried to get off of that number of time to and just experienced like horrific withdrawal so what's with this medication it's part of a family of drugs commonly known as minor tranquilizers it's generally viewed as see if an effective for short term use but for long term that's when the ad times
6:21 am
real trouble kicks in and he was prescribed an anti-anxiety medication at a low dose and wasn't something that wrong any warning bells quickly remind you of who exactly jordan peterson is a professor of psychology at the university of toronto his speeches and interviews have attracted tremendous public attention videos featuring jordan peterson are watched by millions online crowds as big as those that turn out for football matches gather to hear his lectures worldwide but just as much as he inspired some of the 57 year old professor embittered a full auto army of haters all because of his bid to challenge political correctness the man widely seen as a right wing celebrity is loathed by the left for things like once going against gender neutral pronouns so earlier this month peterson's daughter shocked his followers with this update on his health he's been in unbearable discomfort from
6:22 am
this made worse when trying to remove their reaction made him suicidal the peterson family say they had a real hard time for finding a place for successful treatment choosing russia as a place to go for health treatment is this something somebody from north america would usually until we looked all over the world for someplace that was. a benzodiazepine talks we couldn't really find any place that would do that certainly not in north america coming here into detox was our last option really seems to be slowly recovering but will the man who try to hope mankind up with an antidote to chaos be able to find one for all the disorder in and around his own life. and if you'd like to see more you can watch the full interview with caleb peterson on the world's apart program by heading to a web site at r.t. dot com. finally after the defeat in the last u.s. presidential election hillary clinton appeared to have stepped back from high level
6:23 am
politics but she may be handed a surprising return to the limelight. love it doesn't mean he will resign a year after winning so hillary can take over by a back door whoever picks hillary as a v.p. running mate would significantly reduce their life expectancy man i would not want my life to be the only thing standing between hillary clinton and her presidency just saying. we are focused on the primary and the debate not v.p. speculation. i know hillary clinton is not flawless no candidate here but she is the right
6:24 am
choice. it would be foolish to deny the rumor because because bloomberg has come in so bizarrely late to the campaign clinton is a more national figure than bloomberg is she has a much larger and level of name recognition she's known by many many more people so what's especially telling is it shows the desperation of the democratic party to allow somebody to come in this late and had the d.n.c. to try to push him to the front really turning the whole primary process into a joke i mean this is i mean this is nonsense you know to come into the the entire presidential campaign process after major primaries have already happened mid's it's it's bizarre so yes it is the exact type of long shot desperate type of thing
6:25 am
that you would do in that type of circumstance. appreciate staying with us here on our senior national updates coming your way at the top of their. you. call it. if. you're. the. same wrong. just don't call. me. yet to shape

6:30 am
would never come across as west ness what does that mean being a european what's listen this is referring to the minister all of the west so it comes from 2 reasons one is within the west it's fragmenting and becoming more divided and of course then you have the external challenge just by a new powers rising taking away the primacy of the west so again this is. this is what i mean is it is it we're looking at a binary of values. we're i think it's i think it's both because when the west acts of the cold war it was immensely powerful 2 main reasons not just material wealth but also how their moral purpose it had a mission that was you know liberalism had won they were going to spread this around the world essentially. thing is to remake the world around the west so that again this is also what us define the west which is why.
