7:02 am
today. he serving time for carrying out his cyber attack on a hospital, which he claims had mistreated, a teenage girl. it's a case we've been following closely here. and now there are concerns for so health and treatment, the high buzz. me. well let me tell you more, his wife daughter claims he's currently on hunger strike and in solitary confinement. and he says she's not heard from him now for about a week or so. she spoke to colon bryce and more about it. the last time anyone heard from him is september 23rd. and when he is playing in solitary usually are almost always comes with a hunger strike. and the conditions are still deplorable from a water and drinking water. they corrode metal too hot steam pipes. it's very
7:03 am
dangerous. that place is so scary. i spoke to a lawyer the other week that told me that it's the worst president in the united states. and she'll is different than even the she they use for the rest of the facility. and it's really scary to say that martin's been stripped of his phone and i was shortly after your last conversation. why was that? it's just a temporary punishment. will you be warned? that communicating with us here at r t could violate prison rules. we believe that it's retaliatory and for speaking out against the prison, rape elimination act violations, friend the unit manager, there's not an iota evidence that he's done anything wrong, nor can they provide me. it doesn't seem to matter though, because they've already thrown him in the shoe. i don't know the extent as a punishment whether that includes more or how much time this is going to take. was we heard all that apparently happened after she gave a recording of a conversation with
7:04 am
a husband to us earlier this month in it. he talks about alleged corruption in the course, but it says he still has no regrets. but i'm certainly not going to quite a bit what happened atrocity, unacceptable with to make the decisions. we've asked the prison to comments so far, the not go back about it got sold was jail back in 2018 over his funding for what he believed at the time was right. who i think. oh right now, i need it. do you home? my family with she has been totally medically abuse
7:05 am
7:06 am
. well then in further allegations, he says he was sexually abused by a prison, the facial and that his complaints were ignored. again, the facility hasn't commented on those claims, but this is what his wife told us. the man in question is the unit manager for the ceo as well as for death row. he has sexually abused a number of inmates. in marty's case i, he looked again while he was in a nude investigating as he's done with other people. he stuck his hand in her occupied showers. he's gone into cells and escorted and off camera in it display i guess of dominance and sexual intimidation kind of rules on the books about korea and that's the prison, rape elimination act. and how the people that accused others are supposed to be protected and have investigations, and none of that is happening bmw. next,
7:07 am
facebook's had a safety's come on the fire and congress over the effect. the company's services have on young people's mental health. it comes off that leaked internal research from the company suggested his photo sharing platform, instagram, harm's children's well being. lawmakers blasted the tech giant for exploiting kids for profit. it has weapon, eyes, childhood vulnerabilities against children themselves. it's chosen growth over children's mental health and well being greed over preventing the suffering of children. this seems to be a recurring theme with this company. do everything and anything to mould the world into your own image. for your own profit, without any regard for any harm that is going to be done because your focus is on your pocket book. this book is just like a big tobacco pushing,
7:08 am
a product that they know is harmful to the health of young people, pushing it to them early. also facebook to make money. i g stands for instagram, but it also stands for insta greed. the accusations against facebook include its failure to police extremism and hate speech, as well as his poor handling of uses personal data. but despite that, there are still no significant mentors in place when it comes to regulating the platforms. content can open us more on the story. facebook had to postpone the rolling out of their new app directed at children under the age of $1313.00 and younger. because of a wide spread outrage and the barrage of criticism that facebook was facing after the wall street journal revealed that facebook was well aware of the harmful effects caused by instagram. we make body image issues was the one in 3 teen girls,
7:09 am
teens blame instagram for increases in rate of anxiety and depression. according to what is being reported among teenagers who are suicidal. 13 percent in britain and 6 percent in the united states actually listed instagram as having a been a factor in their desire to commit suicide. the tech giant has, you know, basically accused of these reports of quote sherry, picking facts on the eve of today's hearing. they did release 2 of their own internal reports, but many are looking on with disappointment because this is certainly not the 1st time that facebook has been caught suppressing data and channeling information in their own way. the research that we've seen is that using social apps to connect with other people can have positive mental health benefits. many people across the political spectrum in the united states, democrats, republicans, it seems like
7:10 am
a consensus in the united states that there should be some better regulation of big tack and social media on that. the harmful effects of social media should be controlled. but despite there being such widespread feeling and they're being ongoing hearings on capital hill, there doesn't seem to be a real legislative agenda being rolled out there don't seem to be a real legislation being put into the work. so to limit the power of big tack and the social media monopolies, despite of some colorful hearings like we just heard. the answer over here is for free voluntary action to shut down facebook and whether that's something like a small business, refusing to advertise on facebook or over a government agency refusing to share information through facebook. the key here isn't to regulate it, because that's gonna end up only favoring facebook, but rather to leave facebook and especially for the government to show an example and to set to remove all government agencies from facebook. so if the government
7:11 am
simply steps away from it, and that includes also as well, i think repre elect to represent representatives have a moral responsibility to leave facebook. that decreases its values, utility and lee. that is what it should be, is basically sort of a small shy. it's a small site to share some basic information. series of anti lockdown rallies and australia, of seeing tempest fray, lately, with allegations of police brutality, against protest as the for stations being feel, but some of the toughest and longest covert restrictions in the world. at least 2 claims of police violence been made in the last 6 days alone with videos of the instance circulating online. oh, what i voicing. here's him from melbourne. it shows the swift detention of one demonstrator apparently after he entered the restricted area . and then in a separate incident in sydney, a mother was allegedly arrested in front of the children for not wearing
7:12 am
a mask. that follows a wave of violent anti coby dwellings across the country. ah ah, so defending the tide, 6 authorities earlier stressed than some protest as a quote there for a fight and not to protest. for freedom's con bray discussed with our guests with the police and the restrictions and simply gone to father these days. peter, i'd imagine the police are trained to anticipate when things like locked down, fatigue, overwhelmed people and they start to get out to take it towards offices is certainly false in the background or individual offices and downtown counsel enough. so situation where does this steady development pressure on the public about
7:13 am
a particular angle and very often and so it may be useful to mind as a country, regardless of that aspect, offices should be acting proportionately occurs. it's a pressure job, we're on grateful. but look what is happening now, and you can use brutality. i'm in what i saw in the food charge it was quite disturbing. and that the woman wasn't even, i, you know, doing anything for my age to expect the police to be as a result of things without any use of course. and so, and i use the force isn't necessarily groups. honestly, it becomes brutality when it's so necessary. and or accessing a lot of police time is taken up, dealing with anti faxes in their protests and people who are fed up with lockdown, just wanting to say enough is enough. can any of these enable rallies ever be justified? personally, i think the taxes are precious leisha to reduce the harm of this horrible virus. but i also understand the to many people there are really fed up for is that we
7:14 am
need to have some, you know, some lunch joe, to help us not spread the virus. but there is another way to do that. and it's not the way that i saw there was friend in policeman to, you know, was doing with that for mother. and i agree that so you know, different scenarios need different tact is if you're going to say the police and stop doing things the way they do them after years and decades. the old and then are afraid. we wanted me to be able to come up with a realistic alternative, asked for having difference trying to different talk, process posts. i think what would lead to more confusion. we sold them must be it something else that we can do and, and i sure the people might eventually listen more if you treat them in a different way. friday of the 1st kevin over here, the this hour. and on the way, for resident mccrendon, france than sets up a commission now to try to come about conspiracy theories, but with elections just around the corner. some may be a saying, it is
7:15 am
a political ploy to win a 2nd term in office. what you think about it, we're across that and so much more of a quick break. here on our take with france is macro recently said quote, the europeans must stop being naive when we are under pressure from powers, which at times harden their stance. we need to react and show we have the power and capacity to defend ourselves, vold words. but does europe have the political will to actually defend itself? ah, if you would expect to be of non government would be in the image of it. best liberty, a seat, and i'm sorry, this is a wrong expectation. the you will have to see of man is than you want me to
7:16 am
governess as but they want you to pick you li, entities. you can't impose the estin democratic system. on 12 months a plant evolved and the political order ah ah, poland justice minister saying his country thinks his big black male by the e. u. after the block threatened to withdrawal funds if some polish regions failed to recognize l g b t writes for districts of ruddy bag down then and revoked their policies that discriminated against the gay community. early this month, european commission told the regions that it would withhold over
7:17 am
a $120000000.00 euro if the declarations remained. enforce a comes 2 months off. the block, initiated legal action against the countries a whole for alleged violations. valgy b t writes, but many are apparently unhappy with this intervention by the e. u. okay, awesome. so now it was, i believe that the european union should not interfere with what's happening in poland at all. they should not act like that, especially if the city deserves that money and should be given it handled ease and sanctions of this type should not be imposed her go, i think the european union is right. how government is very homophobic. i agree with europe fully, lou city authorities had the right to not promoting eligibility. everyone has this rise view of in union should find another way of them. the voice of i'm not a fan of pro l g b t zones. but on the other hand, every one has a right to their own life communion, on the part of the european union. it is very unfair. such things should not be combined. here is the man and here's the money. they are completely separate
7:18 am
matters. i think nothing should be done by force. if there is no such need in poland, you do not have to force anything. so local governors justify the u turns saying they're not ready to be accountable for the financial loss. one expert we heard from told us such an approach by the you to try to maintain unity in the blocks of pastor dictatorship. every local power should act according to the wheel. and i have a lot of a degree of power, especially in this case, especially in this case. so, you know, i'm not entering into the subject matter, not talking about about the lesbian gauge on gender in the song. i'm talking about the general view and general principle that should be a while respected by the european union, unless the european union wants to become with south assault or talk, receipt or dictatorship, i think is a very democratic choice. i think that in former communist count is like paul on
7:19 am
local municipalities, local provinces. so local powers, they have power enough, according to the constitution to act are called into they will, i feel is something which is completely legitimated and should be understood and should be allowed. also the santo lever ahead of the french elections. president mc cronner sent her a commission there than to try to fight fake news and conspiracy theories is which he says, pose a threat french society. but many claims, actually a cynical ploy. they say to help the narrative and shake the narrative rather, and help him win. a 2nd term in office shall dimansky just pick through it all and takes up a story for us today. how do you solve the problem? all fake news, conspiracy theories, people who just don't subscribe to the same ideas that the government wants them to
7:20 am
. well, hearing france, it's easy. you set up a commission with months before the presidential elections and perhaps a team desire to control the message. that's exactly what a manual mac coil is doing. it's something that he's been passionate about for a while. the key problem is the crushing of the hierarchies induced by a society of permanent comment. the feeling that everything is equal, that all works are equal. that someone who is not a specialist, but has an opinion on the virus, is worth the voice of a scientist. but that's not how everyone sees it. some are suggesting that this commission will lead to possible censorship and this idea, beggs, another question. where will the investigations start? will the french government be on the list too? because it's record isn't exemplary. here at peachy sal patricia, a hospital was attacked, the staff were assaulted, an officer protecting them,
7:21 am
was injured, unwavering support for all law enforcement agencies. they all the pride of the republic, except that wasn't true in fact. and those who entered the hospital were apparently seeking shelter from tea. a gas that was being fired at them by the police. despite dinner being hauled in over his mis information, he was later cleared of spreading fake news. about the time members of mac coins, party tried to suggest the yellow vest movement was sinister port organized by trump, supporters in the us and planned immediately after corns. except that really did turn out to be a conspiracy theory. there is also the question about the loyalty of the biases
7:22 am
of those who make up the commission. now, one member has previously expressed concern about journalists at our sister station . oh, to france. i have entire hard drives on some of them, the chair of americans and t conspiracy theory panel. when checks the idea that he'll now be leading the thought police. there is no question of censorship, but strengthening the space for common debate. they're increasingly threatened by succession of opinions, and that's exactly now how some view it societies have their own flourish. don't open the page where everyone has the right to their own viewpoints. so could this commission end up doing the receipt of what it's trying to do? moving funds away from its tradition of enlightenment designs of up ignited country, given the current means of disseminating information. monolithic propaganda,
7:23 am
such as france of practice to during the world war, so or during the quarterly or was, is no longer possible. so french authorities have to find other means, so specially to support next to presidential campaign. this commission is great news because it's most too ridiculous. the press is already starting to call to talk about the contradictions of its members. the fake news that they themselves have spread. a doctor, a member of this commission has even been called the to order by the order of physicians for spreading fake news. you have, in this commission of the founder of a side conspiracy watch who thinks that we can fight against all conspiracy theories without making an this distinction because they are all enemies. french people are too rebellious. i think, in my opinion too, to accept the very idea, idea of the kind of ministry of truth or to quote,
7:24 am
a famous novel. we are all individual, we all have different ideas and beliefs, and they're not all necessarily correct. but it's the ability to express them tend to be limited, challenge them that is allowed humans to thrive, to expand our capabilities. if we start drawing a line over what thoughts are acceptable and what ones aren't. are we not wading into very dangerous territory, geology belsky. marty paris, meantime, after the elections in germany last weekend, the reports of multiple violations during voting that in one instance ballot papers were delivered to the wrong district, spirally, and people also to q for hours of polling stations. the government has since admitted there were several incidents across the country this, these incidents have been discovered and they are being discussed intensively in
7:25 am
such a major city in germany, in a city where we are. and i think that is exactly where it belongs. with more of what exactly went wrong during the elections a bit more detail, his anastasio tomachov. ah, it all started when mock election forecasts for accidentally at 2 days ahead of devote the public broadcast to briefly displayed a ticker was a projected results union evening quiz program. and today's labor only hours for for pollock station close to the free voters party leader. also pleaded forecast results. the publication of paul's and projections on election day is strictly prohibited, was fines up to $50000.00 euros. but the party had claims. this was an accident. you'll be an adult smith. impunity. we will clarify this with the federal returning officer. it was just a miss adel niece. there was no intention to break any laws. she to bookstores him and some districts voters had to stand in line for hours. some even had to wait
7:26 am
well after the official closing time of 6 p. m to cast a boat. the delay was caused by incorrect ballads being distributed to the wrong neighbourhood. the labels on the ballad boxes did not much to content resulting in hundreds of people voting for candidates from other areas. and due to high number of wrong tickets and therefore difficulty counting votes, one of the berlin districts had to publish estimates instead of results. it also took longer to deliver the correct ballots because streets were closed due to the bell in my refund on the same day which about 25000 people attended. the marathon should not have taken place on the election day. the most important act to which citizens express political will, must not fall victim to a commercial sports event. if the entire city center has paralyzed traffic, that is an extreme obstruction. mm. balance sheet collection official even admitted that she knew about the labeling issue back in august,
7:27 am
but ballots were shipped anyway. so following widespread criticism for a serious of organizational and blunders, the cheap election officer has an bounced her resignation. the salish good man, we will have to seriously investigate whether voters were not able to cast their vote. this allegedly happened because they were not provided with a sufficient amount of ballot papers, all the correct ballot papers and election is only democratic when all voters are able to use their right to vote on. finally, a full investigation and to mismanagement is still being conducted. was its conclusions expected next week after that, experts predict legal challenges to the results that may start pouring in on the soil? he's looking for the newsroom so far this friday, this is so much more aligned from us as well. of course today on our site or any of the socials, but now we're coming up to 28 minutes past the hour reporting for moscow. my name's kevin owen. thank you for watching this update. and after the short break,
7:28 am
7:29 am
it's hi now where we receive so many inputs on a daily basis that are completely unrelated to reality. so think about how and social media filters, and they basically present themselves in a very unrealistic way. and so when we come down to fomo, there is any, involve more than that. it's about being sort of envious of something. it may not exist is also really tied to the fact that as humans, we want to be part of the crowd. imagine picking up a future textbook on the early years of the 21st century. what are the chapters called gun violence school shootings, homelessness 1st, it was my job and then it was my family didn't was my savings. i have nothing. i have nothing and it's not like i don't try. i look for resources, i look for jobs, i look for everything i can to make this pass. and i end up doing is passing time,
7:30 am
the road to the american dream paved with dead refugees. it's very idealized image . all this older america makes americans look past the deaths to happen every single day. this is a modem history of the usa, my america. oh, now t ah a folks next up on dennis miller plus one shipper chef darnell ferguson. you've seen him on guys, grocery games has a new show that he's the lead john over on discovery plus great concept, tiny food, fight all the flavors, all the cooking, all the implements, all the ingredients, small with a great idea. darnell ferguson right up to the side. dennis miller plus one.
