it has a special and a taste of things to come for u.k. travelers post brags that every town says shopping confiscated at the spanish border crossing as it contains prohibited from outside the e.u. . very good morning to you this is a t. international. a recent poll suggests trust in the media has fallen in america on both sides of the political spectrum despite a general upward trend among the other 26 countries that part in the survey. after became clear in november the trumpet being ousted from the oval office no one was more relieved than his greatest enemy the media i don't dare speak for my colleagues but i can't tell you how difficult it's been as a journalist to cover these dark parts of our history let's hope the attack on

journalists journalism and everyone and time to move into the light well don lemon who bravely soldier through those dark years has got his wish as joe biden was annoying to the 42nd president of the united states t.v. screens of cross america one magical filled with the rainbows and unicorns those lights that are that are just shooting out from the lincoln memorial i look it's like almost extensions of joe biden's arms embracing america president elect joe biden and vice president harris told. to greece or to regret out of the privacy of our hearts if just for a moment so that we all could share he doesn't keep a lot of things secret when it comes to his emotions and his and his family and his love for his family now report says might have taken it easy on biden during the campaign trail but that john and mystic integrity demanded that they ramp up the pressure during his phosphates and office player who he followed from stair force

$1.00 each this is such a good question such a good question because while america might be staring down the barrel of unprecedented political polarization civil unrest racial inequality a raging pandemic the annihilation of small businesses and sky high unemployment it's the future of the false one color scheme that really keeps people up at night but if journalists do decide to ask about one of the other insignificant challenges the us face says the head of state is only too willing to give a thorough answer to. the very. forward people who are the u.s. is right now. we're down to your city's number one. young man give him a break it's his 1st day on the job he's tired probably could do with a nap anyway what do you think this is a press conference meanwhile over in florida donald trump goldfinger his way back

into civilian life is probably feeling a bit hard done by because just months ago a study showed that 95 percent of u.s. broadcast coverage of triumph was negative and to make it was he could even tweet about it. could be embarrass himself in any. further you look small he just looks like a small man. we all lived through a president who was assisted in his elevation to the white house by illegal assistance from a hostile foreign power with so much glaring bias is it anyone to trust in mainstream us media has hit a record low reporters that probably patting themselves on the back they survived the don't care if they did it a holiday right but does it show not like apart from a softball question here and there for the biotin fun club sorry the mainstream media the next 4 years will be spent kicking back and taking it easy.
1:05 am
the media is supposed to be the bit the state of supposed to be the watchdog we're not supposed to be in the public relations business the trust in the media in the us is is has declined it's been declining for many years. the public is correct to suspect that journalists are not being fair what we need to see is a robot have all of the principles that facts count and you know if you need to hear both sides to a story what's going on going on right now is just the opposite of that and some of the so-called for hat checkers are anything but they're basically trying to tip the scales in again in favor of 11 side and they're not looking at it objectively. the full interest in the media comes hot on the heels of the us elections we saw

divisions violently spillover in the capital siege clashes also breaking out in portland seattle and denver just hours after joe biden's an oval address. party's chris i just spoke to philosopher noam chomsky he thinks that deep division in america is nothing came. we were always at war united states is one of those who are countries that has been at war almost every day since its founding but we just saw we have the most wonderful military system in the world to defend america and if you look at the oath of office that the chief of staff transdermal the joint chiefs takes that to defend america against enemies foreign and domestic was unable to defend the capital couple of the under nurse xx . not that i noticed one of the most remarkable things that trump has done was to
1:07 am
dismantle the entire arms control regime how we perceive reality and i want to discuss that that how is our cultivated perception of reality a form of social control of course he referred to graham cheney well we're seeing pretty dramatic examples of that right noam united states is always trying to do good things but makes mistakes here and there we have to correct these mistakes and that everything is fundamentally wonderful and so this assault on the couple of shows the power of american democracy because we didn't collapse into a version state very much like the reaction after watergate. odes to the magnificence of the democratic system when right after the demonstration of corruption and even in the effort to conceal what happened.
1:08 am
3 muslim federations in france have refused to back him on your micron's antics streams and chants of the president's been touting his challenge as a way to fight radical islam. we regret that this charter was signed before getting approval of ole components of the french council of the muslim faith we believe that some passages in warnings of the texts submitted are of a nature tweak in the ties of trust between the muslims of france and the nation in addition some of the declarations infringe the honor of muslims with an accusatory character and marginalizing a number of other muslim federations did sign up to the charter that after intense and drawn out discussions the charter envisages the setting of a new national council responsible for vetting good moms practicing in the country rejects polarized brands of islam and reaffirms equality between men and women islamist terror rid its ugly head again in france just 2 months ago when a teacher was beheaded for showing his class cartoons of the prophet muhammad.
1:09 am
on the park and patrick was the victim of an islamist terror attack. establishing islam is a religion that is in crisis today all over the world is on we don't just see it in our country year that don hewitt was american is that the will of the islamists is precisely to turn our citizens you know he's a republican using only religion and we cannot let that happen to modeled on the attack on samuel party triggered a crackdown against extremist mosques and islam mr associations we heard from saudi kier president of the paris based islamic confederation which rejects micron's charter he told us why. some of these look at that humans we disagree on
1:10 am
a number of matters one being the group this charter was to be addressed to at the beginning it was about drafting a charter republican principles of the national council of so it was supposed to concern. you we find ourselves with the charter of islam that's france and if they do it to make the proper distinctions many paragraphs anyway asking muslims explicitly to clarify their position on the subject is that all of this subjects that they have respected for years and years those any problems for them as for the principles of the french republic the french people of the muslim face in this country and surrounded in respect of the values of the french republic the gauge as all we do not have to ask them explicitly to measure their religious convictions to prove how respectful they are to the values and principles of the french republic it is certain that the right and to muslim bags we call that islamophobia we're not going to get into semantics we have a commission called fight against islamophobia so we call it that the reason deaton
1:11 am
increase and these acts especially in light of current events now i also don't want to say the results institutionalized islamophobia in france i really think that our country is doing its best to fight against and to muslim acts against islamophobia but that does not mean that these kinds of acts are not increasing. he said. a new variant of curve which was 1st detected in the u.k. is now believed to be not only more infectious than other strains but also more deadly said it was dashed the reports from london. of course we always knew that the virus could mutate and we know the latest strad is what transmissible but now we have the confirmation it's more deadly in addition to spreading more quickly it also appears that there is some evidence that the new variant the varian that was 1st identified in london in the southeast may be associated with a higher degree of mortality and i want to give some context if you took somebody
1:12 am
in their sixty's a man in their sixty's the average risk is that for a 1000 people who got infected roughly 10 would be expected to unfortunately die with the virus. with the new variant for a 1000 people inflicted roughly 13 or 14 people might be expected to die well the latest statistics are incredibly worrying today's daily cases is now well over 40000 and deaths also continue to rise day by day far as johnson also saying that 70 percent more likely to for people to be in hospital with 19 than there were at the peak of the pandemic in april but it is also worth mentioning that the data isn't very clear at this point as we heard from patrick violence there is a degree still of uncertainty signs of the lockdown will be relaxing anytime soon
1:13 am
in fact there's much speculation mounting that this lockdown could even move well into the summer months as well still the government today trying to reinforce that key message of stay at home as that is really where things can get taken in control of our students and then moving on to talk about the vaccination program as well we are now at the 2nd week of the government's road out of the vaccination he says of the u.k. is well on track to deliver 15000000 doses by mid february of course many people have long said that's quite an ambitious target especially considering now we're only at 5400000 people being vaccinated so the government will have to get a move on we spoke to health policy analyst roy lilley who says he's not too optimistic about how the situation will unfold. it was some worrying news earlier this morning as well from one of the professors at the university of east anglia who was saying that the even though we're flat out that's an 800 people we want that enough people with that with
1:14 am
a single dose of vaccine to accomplish herd immunity. and that's worrying as well because that push eased coded munity if we were vaccinate everybody twice along the way down the road it looks to me like we're in for a long haul i think people were trapped optimistic leigh believing that while march around easter time things might change abnormal to. really. puzzled by the prime minister's intervention tonight and i'm not a to want to mystic to the future. the taste of things to come now that britain's left the e.u. britain living in spain and working in the u.k. controlled enclave of gibraltar so this shopping by getting by spanish border guards was forced to leave behind much of its contents of the border an individual case that highlights a change of rules for britons who are crossing the blocks from tears usually you just walk straight through a wall they may be out there check your bags outcall tobacco whatever but this time
1:15 am
they showed them a bag and they say to the times it looks a little bit more caffeine and they normally say and they started back properly cycling and it's now after checking a few items they basically just told me that the majority of this you can't take through because your house processed vegetables and i'm saying that they were going to essentially just put them in event. the complication miles in keeping with the ease travel guidelines which prohibit travelers from bringing meat dairy products and process vegetables from the member states among the things that got the brits we spoke to into trouble was processed onions in a spicy sauce he tried to make the best of the bad situation eventually selling the prohibitive products at a loss on line. but that it's reasonable i had a brief conversation with one of the guards in the office there and i've made my point if i can't take these items it seems to me that would be more like a large export quantities not for snow items and there was no documentation to
1:16 am
support a fact at least to my knowledge at the time that i can take these things over so. if this is already happening in the 1st week after breakfast then yeah probably enters a bait a few a few other issues. next on our post brags that menu sour grapes around breaks out after the u.s. ambassador to britain was denied full diplomatic status in london insists it's not applies to treat representatives of international bodies the same as foreign diplomats working for nation states and iceland and changes tack the new ambassador won't be able to get approval by the queen as head of a diplomatic mission in case decision is at odds with the way the blocks representatives are treated in most other countries london's move doesn't sit well with brussels we are not to the national recognition of the ozols we have the union i think it would be very in my view too for do you care to find.
1:17 am
britain's foreign office has tried to allay brussels concerns saying that the e.u.'s representative will receive quote privileges and immunities necessary to carry out their work in the u.k. effectively political commentator john fryer believes that london's approach could backfire. i think this is a really sad position that the british government has taken because after all we were members of the european union for nearly 50 years and brags that apparently is not enough they now want to downgrade the status of the european union and although more than $150.00 countries around the world give full diplomatic privileges to iran bassa does under the vienna convention and this is the situation that he's landed to say now with the government surrounded by cabinet ministers who support this nationalistic break in which is actually not
1:18 am
a toll championing britain's global role as he would see it the diminishing britain's role in the international stage if we want to have a good working relationship with 27 neighbors who are our main trading partners has taken as a whole we really need to have a much more. grown up as you 2 towards this. the film the question of vaccination becomes more urgent in africa where the curve the death rates now supplant the global average well not to this break. i wouldn't quit says a supporter of sort of the banning of trump per se i think long before we reach this point there should have been enough and there should have been
1:19 am
a set of guidelines and rules and then technology platforms followed around specific kinds of cases by which people might be maybe even not the platform to take into steps they're on the way to their view they are stealing information that is going viral that is obviously false and or hateful. by these algorithms that are influencing the visibility of content that is heat fall and viral in those cases we need to intervene. join me every 1st day on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us of the world the politics sports business i'm show business i'll see that.
1:20 am
the african center for disease control and prevention is sounding the alarm after the code 19 death rate on the continent's a past the global average auntie's considering that our scoff reports. seba system or year has become the 3rd top official in zimbabwe to die of covert in the past 6 months mr moyers served as foreign affairs and international trade minister and his passing is yet another sign of a growing coronavirus crisis in africa the continent's total number of registered cases might not look too dramatic if you compare it with other parts of the world 3300000 infections but the fate talent from coburg 19 has gone through the roof of surpassing the global average to reach 2.5 percent when the african union announced the preet order of 270000000 doses of western vaccines it felt like
1:21 am
a ray of hope these are historic times for the 1st time in history africa has secured access to millions of vaccine doses in the middle of a pandemic but as with most western countries there's still a huge shortage of vaccine doses and that's why this continental collaboration has designed a fair allocation coupled with timely and equitable access of coded $1000.00 vaccines across the continent so far none of the promised western vaccines have been supplied to africa almost 2 months after the 1st doses were rolled out in europe according to world health organization officials that's partly because rich nations care about themselves 1st and foremost even those they speak the language of equitable axis some countries some companies continue to prioritize deals bypassing kovacs driving up prices and the time to jump to the front of the queue given the vaccine leftovers that african nations are hoping to get invention we
1:22 am
will probably cost them more than the rich countries need the south african health ministry claims for instance that it was offered doses of u.k. pharma giant ass resenting his vaccine at a price $2.00 times higher than in the european you. but supply shortages and price gouging are not the only problems for the poor african nations when it comes to getting jobs what we're seeing in the roll out in some of the high income countries is that it's complicated it needs to be resourced and properly planned and there haven't been enough global resources to lower income countries in other words most african nations simply can't afford the sophisticated infrastructure needed for vaccine distribution even if they receive the actual doses is especially true for the fires or by one tech shot which has to be stored and transported at minus 70 degrees celsius the plan to save africa from than that make it look good on paper
1:23 am
but the reality is very different we have to vaccinate africa it's quickly we vaccinate the rest of the world and we have to give the vaccine for free and that's what we should do because that's the only moral and intelligent thing to do to fight this deadly pandemic this virus has spread faster than any virus we've seen in a century this virus is deadly and therefore not true the sure that every country has if you have an idea you're only going to protect your country then you are actually going to be committing murder and the rest will put you are still going to be killing yourself because until. that snake the. university of york in the u.k. has removed an image of the 3 wise monkeys from its website of affairs some could see it as a racist stereotype. upon reflection we strongly believe that our 1st post is not
1:24 am
appropriate as it's i cannot promulgates a longstanding legacy of oppression and exploits racist stereotypes the 3 monkeys represent the old japanese problem see you know he evil hear no evil speak no evil a spokeswoman for the uni says that the picture was used to call for research papers for an art history conference including quote papers that represented black indigenous and people of color we discussed the situation with columnist and radio host john gaunt i don't know how anyone i just do not understand how anyone can see the 3 wise monkeys there in any way that represents black people or is racist it clearly isn't it's 3 wise monkeys want to see a black person i don't think all they're like a monkey the only people who see that are people who are looking for racism or in fact perhaps hold racist attitudes themselves it's not even one coach or in a sense it's nonsense culture it's complete an attorney drivel and oh you know what
1:25 am
this actually does or undermines your real racism there's plenty of racism in the world that we need to confront without looking for it where it isn't there. and it's finished in the netherlands where young designer has already sold $1500.00 decks of a special range of playing cards she says that what sets them apart from the usual run of the mill pack of cards is that free of sexism. if we have this hierarchy that the king is worth more than the queen then the subtle inequality influences people in their daily life because it's just another way of saying hey your last born.
1:26 am
technically the queen cars is worth more in a game of queenie. gender neutral deck of cards that's the cure for all the biggest problems when it comes to gender inequality the king of spades sure kept me up at nights. i'm pretty triggered by silver being a lower rank than go. and enjoy that check out plenty more news stories we have covered for you on our website go to alt. right now all the. young people who are overweight or obese it's the full suitable to self. and sugary and salty and the big it's not at

the individual level it's not individual willpower and if we go on believing that never change this obesity epidemic that industry has been influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment. so what's driving the obesity epidemic it's called for both of. us think this is our 3rd ministration we've been down this show for going on 12 years anyway you know a big theme in $222016.00 was d. dollars they should dig lobel ization and now it's all coming to. the world is driven by shaped by phone person.
1:28 am
who dares thinks. we dare to ask. this. the one business show you can't afford to mess i'm rachel love is in washington coming out to coin tumbled below 30000 this week following an unprecedented highs so what does this mean for the future of the world's most popular cryptocurrency we'll discuss what the u.s. attempts to expand its rollout of covert 19 vaccines officials in new york and
1:29 am
california are saying they can't keep up with the demand and they're being forced to turn away patients then. what form parlor has lost yet another legal battle in its fight to get back online and it's now being used as a case study in the fight over free speech on social media we have a lot to get to so let's get started. we begin with the latest in the world big tumble this week with prices dropping 12 percent to below $30000.00 the sharp decrease follows record highs from earlier this month when bitcoin hit nearly $42000.00 while some say this shows just how unstable the currency can be others say more record highs are still to come so joining us now to go further and there's boom bust co-host christiane i know kristie big queen sustained some heavy losses this past week so what caused a steep sell off and is this the beginning of
1:30 am
a downward trend. no i wouldn't call it a downward trend but it is going to face downward pressure here as it when you establish it's a poor at 32000 so as you pointed out it did break 30000 but as of right now it's trading already up almost at $34000.00 so there are a few reasons why bit why drop so heavily so suddenly so firstly you have the options market that was already getting overheated as we stated before with the growing put options so there was about $3100000000.00 and notional open interest rate near term clip volume rising which skewed pressure to the downside and then secondly had the critical resistance of the $35000.00 rejected again for the 3rd time after bouncing off of being unable to break through $35.00 it just sold off from there so we're now consolidating at the $32000.00 range where traders are going to be watching for another run attempt at $35000.00 for confirmation.
