microphone and a case in point the when you find a job you enjoy doing that you'll never have to walk a day in your life are going to have a bad day but it will not affect. goes on. bad man. lawrence harry's viger was born into a poor family of jewish immigrants and brooklyn the sudden death of his father left the family in dire financial straits and. badly finishing high school but he had to pass on to use the voice that had been given to him and i don't know why most of. a good voice pre-puberty people kept telling me you got to be honorary so i would imitate radio with less than $20.00 in his pocket a 24 year old larry set off for the sunshine state in such of golden opportunities that he said goodbye to lawrence vida and became larry king he took a gig as a d.j.

all the while freelancing writing columns and trying to get on the air waves and from those humble beginnings he started he walked his way towards his big break came in 1978 when king landed the upon a miss the late night radio larry king show t.v.'s fast live worldwide phone and program it started in 28 cities 5 years later it was in 118 larry king became a household name radio's number one interviewer larry king thank you very much good evening everybody on this tuesday night wednesday morning across the united states this is larry king's show 10 years at peabody award on an emulator king decided it was time to move on and larry king life was born a smash hit from start to finish the longest running most watched show on c.n.n. pulling in a 1000000 viewers nightly for 25 years king with his trademark baritone sat down

a day he left voice mails for his assistance with what to post on his twitter and he had a flip phone until the very end. of your order that you have a flip phone. but with phenomenal success also came miss fortune king overcame a series of health scares and was stalked by enormous personal grief including the passing of 2 of his children within weeks of each other the very next day king sort solace in the place he called home the studio where he stayed until the very last because the mohammed ali of broadcast interviews brought his unwavering voice and curiosity right here to r.t. and did what he always done best questioned more on the larry king question being listening learning you know of or 7 i've never learned anything where i was talking

it's important to listen to a question of the morning more than 6 decades of success over 60000 interviews numerous awards countless suspenders and one inimitable voice a legend an icon a king is dead i don't know what to say except to you. my audience. thank you and instead of good buy. now people across russia right on the streets protesting this saturday morning for the release of the opposition activists. he was detained last weekend upon his return home from germany for violating the terms of his parole because you don of reports now. in central moscow it is getting a little bit because the police special forces have begun at least the initial attempts to clear out this square which has been completely packed for about an

hour now so people have been trying to escape the security forces out through this corner as well we managed to keep our vantage point but we're not sure how much longer we will be able to do that because there's a lot of people it's a huge crowd it's very very packed so it's difficult to let people rude here and not be taken away with this larger over protesters now it does feel like there's a good few 1000 people here although i haven't seen any official figures as of yet as to how many people have showed up here in the heart of the russian capital and now there has been some movement towards sure i'd supplied snow we hear in moscow right now so people have been actually throwing snowballs at police officers as they were detaining people because we have seen some detentions some scuffles fighting between the protesters and the police people who were taken down and taken

into custody now when it comes to the police response so rather staying with god there's a constant message being played a megaphone that is right over there clearly going to people to disperse saying that there is this rally has not been worth the rise to do so reminding people of the coronavirus situation here because obviously social distancing is not a thing here and there was even a police officer. spending el-al us at the very beginning of the approach is to have a law. here. that. if you get the baby here mind you it's going to come up i know but. if it wasn't i think you've heard of the earth in your belief. that you'll believe . it's. just

a fear. mongering everything because if. that's so you could get some such because i actually feel i feel like i am going any such i think it's since i have to post i do so i will assume i understood. because i should i really don't think. so. lisa ling was at least i think she was i think that's additional. drilling. i saw her it doesn't really.

seem like it's. likely. that it was we do apologize for the quality of the sound in that report now earlier hundreds did turn out for a unsanctioned rally in bloody fall stalking russia's far east bringing the city center there to a standstill place she was forced disperse the crowds attaining dozens of protesters some of those taking pass a page of being schoolchildren while under the age of 18 rushes on this man for chill. one has to announce what she described as opposition activists using youngsters as a human shield against the police similar things played out in the city change how to they want to smaller scale with a few 100 demonstrators taking part marches have been happening across the country with the main focus on moscow none of them have been authorized and at the protests in class they ask the police to try to reason with some of the younger protesters. to move these 3. of these major repairs mysterious he's.

refusing to. level the field because of the stereotypical focus will be the voice of the obviously you are. almost there. now 3 muslim federations in france refused to back president macron zanti extremism charter he's been touting it as a way to fight radical islam we regret that this charter was signed before getting the approval of all components of the french council of the muslim faith we believe that some passages and wordings of the submitted text are of a nature that will weaken the ties of trust between the muslims of france and the nation in addition some of the declarations infringe on the honor of muslims exhibiting an accusatory and marginalizing character however a number of other muslim federations did sign up to the charter after intense and

drawn out discussions in visions a new national council responsible for vetting the moms practicing in the country and it rejects polarized brands of islam and reaffirms equality between men and women islamist terror read its ugly head again in france just 3 months ago a teacher was beheaded for showing his class carting of the prophet mohammed. i'm not like i'm patrick was the victim of an islamist terror attack. establishing islam is a religion that is in crisis today all over the world and we don't just see it in our country don't listen to the will of the islamists is precisely to turn our

citizens against the republic using their religion and we cannot let that happen or the attack on time nor patty triggered a crackdown against extremists mosques and is necessary she ations we heard from fasc said a care he's the president of the paris based islamic confederation which is against matt from charter and told us why. some of these look at that humans we disagree on 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 and mosques here we find ourselves with the charter of principles of islam and france and the fail it to make the proper distinctions many paragraphs anyway asking muslims explicitly to clarify their position on subjects that are of this subject that they have respected for years and years that don't pose any problems for them as for the principles of the french republic the french people of the

muslim face in this country and serenity and in respect of the values of the french republic that to gauge us 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 rot and to muslim facts 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 there isn't deeds and then christened these acts especially in light of current events now i also don't want to say the result institutionalized islamophobia in france i really think that our conference 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. watching out internationally to the head for the savvy wealthiest bosses of big tech on like other rich business parents apparently you know say tonight that their power and money is linked to splay democracy we'll hear from the

people behind that study the stuff. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy going foundation let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. the world is driven by shaped by.

the day or thinks. we dare to ask. again now it is a taste of the things to come after britain recently left the u. because of britain living in spain and working in the u.k. controlled enclave of gibraltar is how the shopping bag emptied by spanish border guards some is forced to leave behind much of its contents at the border it's a case that highlights the change of rules for britons trying to enter the. usually

you just walk straight through well they might be out check it out call tobacco. but this time they showed them a bag and they they took the time to look for a little bit more caffeine than they normally day and they started back probably this night pulling everything out after checking a few items they basically just told me that the majority of this you can't take through because it has processed vegetables on it and saying that they were going to essentially just put them in the vent or the confiscation was in keeping with the travel guidelines it does provide to travelers from bringing me to dairy products and processed vegetables from non member states among the things that got the break into trouble was processed onions in a spicy sauce when he had tried to make the best of a bad situation i eventually selling the paper to products at a loss on line i think it's reasonable i had a brief conversation with one of the guards in the in the office that made my point if i can't take these items it seems to me that would be more like large quantities

not for snow items and there was no documentation to support a fact at least my knowledge of the sign that i can take these things over so. if this is already happening in the 1st week after breakfast then yeah our program enters a bait a few a few other issues. as it stands going forwards i think of the moment we're still in which a boater is actually having to negotiate an agreement with spaying due to us being left out of the. g.'s my surroundings and some things i was going through the time for just moving around a lot i didn't get. a really wish i had had i voted as a set of really wish i had i would have stood with the 9097 percent of gibraltar that chose to remain because that i didn't really see any benefit whatsoever for us to save the european union. meanwhile around has broken out after the ambassador to britain was denied full diplomatic status london insists though it's not obliged to

treat representatives of international bodies the same as foreign diplomats working for nation states where unless london does change tack the new ambassador won't be able to get approval by the queen as head of a diplomatic mission ukase decision is it all odds with the way the blocks representatives are treated in most of the countries and london's moved doesn't sit well with brussels we are not doing the national religion of dio's we have the union i think it would be varies in my view to for do you care to find. what britain's foreign office has tried to smooth things over and does say that the representative will receive quote the privileges and immunities necessary to carry out their work effectively in the u.k. however political commentator on friday is believed that london's approach could actually backfire. i think this is a really absurd position that the british government has taken because after all we

were members of the european union for nearly 50 years and brags that a part is not enough they now want to downgrade the status of the european union and although more than $100.00 felty countries around the world give full diplomatic privileges to iran bassa does under the vienna convention and this is the situation that these landed is in now with the government surrounded by cabinet ministers who support this arch nationalistic break city airline which is actually not to toe championing britain's global role as he would see it diminishing britain's role in the international stage if we want to have a good working relationship with the 27 neighbors who are our main trading partner has taken as a whole we really need to have a much more. grown up and to to do all of this. now he would

probably that the tech elite were in a class of their own but now it's been proven because research is from germany and america have analyzed the tween to protect me to sing plating ill musk marx and bill gates and have found that they do see themselves and the world very differently to the rest of us we find that the $100.00 richest members of the tech world reveal distinctive attitudes that set them apart from both the general population and from other wealthy elites as a group they are meritocratic lee inclined yet their position in a democratic system is contradictory as a result of their enormous wealth they have disproportionate influence over how discretionary income is spent. well the 7 most valuable u.s. tech companies to include apple amazon and facebook with a combined worth of $3.00 trillion dollars in 2020 the research says that those that run them are all big proponents as we heard of meritocracy positions of power

are based on proven ability to harvey talked to the office about the findings. the 1st thing is that we really wanted to see if we grouped these people together and they talk in a distinctive way and that's what we could see and we could use and we use modern advanced digital technologies machine learning in order to figure out if even if we all there discourse on twitter i'm on the websites into single words we could see that there defend the general population of the discourse it's about the power to pick up creations half over political discourse over a sociological study of the provinces and the smile we decided to study whether. their technological expertise and the enormous accumulated wealth in the end please don't quit when shipping future holds i think these are people who generally speaking you know have

a democratic disposition silca was suggesting they tend to be under perhaps a certain amount of illusion of you know their own position. the fact that they have some much wealth gives them you know unavoidably a great deal of influence and sometimes they don't you know necessarily see that there's a certain inconsistency between those positions but i think one of the things that's striking about this group is you know how sincerely they seem to articulate these desires to as they say make the world a better place so at one level i think we have to take that 1st seriously so honestly say. meant but there is an inconsistency between you know great wealth and influence and a more democratic society more generally. i mean i was putting the question that potentially dangerous although we do see indications of how power can be. potentially abused if we look at the social media companies they've been kicking

people off their platforms recently that they believe that they're being democratic . surely silencing free speech but he would argue is is non-democratic that they have a lot of power and again is it god like this ability to say you can't speak your silenced because i have the power and i don't like what you say well i think this is the general the now popping up and. our in the hands of very you know you know it's very fragile and since this is the general purpose technologies that inspires in our areas of. our lives these days i think it will be more and more important to really get more people on board and to have more checks and balances yes a discussion we had a really here not international so that's how the news is looking so far this saturday afternoon we're back again at the top of the.

i think this is a 3rd of ministration we've been down the shaft for going on 12 years anyway you know a big zaman $22026.00 team was dollars they should dig lobel ization and now it's all coming to. you know my phone line is my fight go make an incredible 1000000 mark them up on the limb or form going to november i'm going to focus and stuff to get a. lot of was. just that they got nothing to me. she

was you me. john bombard from the sun on my book you go to the british were spoken up i've been brought up. i mean you got. to just. take. israel media a reflection of reality. in the world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going. way or are you being lead so. direct. what is true what is faith.

in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or remain in the shallows. nuclear become a battleground in the us in vermont people of demanding the shut down of a local plant from my yankee is right now my focus because it's a very dangerous oh no prayer power plant the owner is attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limits this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where's it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy as are powerline with the people this case

demonstrates that struggle in the very real ways our struggle on o.t. . the world is driven by shaped by. the day there's thinks. we dare to ask.

this is the one business show you can't afford to mess i'm rachel love is in washington coming out to coin tell 30000 this week following 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 90 vaccines officials in new york and 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 receipts 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 big queen hit nearly

42000 while some say this shows just how unstable the currency can be others say more record highs are still to come so joining me now to go further and there's boom bust co-host christiane i now kristie big sustained some heavy losses this past week so what caused a steep sell off and is this the beginning of a downward trend. no i wouldn't call it a downward trend but it is going to turn downward pressure here as it were news stablish and support at 32000 so as you pointed out it did great 30000 but as of right now it's trading already almost at $34000.00 so there are a few reasons why but why drop so heavily. so firstly you have the options market that was.
