person finds a fake with video with it saying the fact that this content ranks. huh. at least 20 percent or maybe even 40 percent. oh good. that's true. it was a very dangerous thing with headlines right now and ought to international as moscow vowels. retaliatory measures against german media accredited here in russia. it's off the berlin slaps on broadcast ban ortiz sister channel odd cd. london's police chief is under fire after a report exposes how offices some of whom are sold in the job of shed jokes about rape and violence. also the new zealand a catholic church admits the 14 percent of clergy and i've been accused of various forms of abuse since $951.00 survive of multiple sexual assaults. told us about his

o 2. not only was i abused as a young boy in middle school here in new zealand. i went on to the catholic school, secondary level, was abused sexually and physically again. and then i was abused by a priest in the diocese with questioning the mainstream narrative live from moscow. it's all to international with me, role res, to shy from the entire news to good afternoon. russia has vowed a mirror, a response against german media accredited. right here in russia is off to a berlin watchdog band off sister channel r t t e. across all platforms. the verdict of the german media regulator is an unambiguous signal that russian concerns have been defiantly ignored. this step deprives us of any choice but to start implementing retaliatory

measures against german media accredited in russia. as well as internet intermediaries who have arbitrarily and unreasonably deleted the channels, accounts from their platforms. will, russian officials already said that they'll raise this issue will be the media regulator with a foreign ministry. also stating that as a retaliation for the pressure exerted by the generally media regulator on or t d, e. german media outlets and russia might also face restrictions in view all these measures. and of course, these are quite unprecedented in germany. the media regulate has band r t, now not only from media, from satellites for across all platforms, including online and applications, as well saying broadcasts must stop. the required media law license was not available. the organisation and distribution of the tv program via a live stream on the internet via mobile and smart tv parking news and via satellite must therefore be discontinued. our tv has the salts appeal,

the decision, the case now will be with the lawyers and the court to see what the future will hold in the short term. yeah, i mean, what's the basis for the, the pale? how will and see will russia in challenge the decision? well, t d says that it's broadcasting is within the ream it, so the laws and regulations, they're saying they're paying their license under the european convention of trying to frontier television through serbia, saying that case was costing germany is legally tied. there's generally absolutely no broadcasting happening from berlin at all r t d e. the tv channel is broadcasting right here for moscow via a license that was obtained with absolutely all according european rules and regulations, according to the european convention on transferred to your television. and we are free to broadcast via that license in 30 plus territory across europe. well, this isn't the 1st multi has faced pressure, of course,

off to the law in berlin. it was taken off with its use your title as soon as it loads the difference with its signal as well. viewers had trouble getting its signal with the european regulator regarding its quote and to be taken care of. and even the president vladimir putin has commented that this prussia, it has faced, that is unprecedented, which i know about the closure of bank accounts and so on. there's a large number of tactics they using. so r t d cons operate, they're infringing on freedom of speech and that's very bad. it was clear that has been a very intense, concerted effort to stop for all tv broadcast thing from moscow to germany in any way, shape or form. and it has had repercussions now, unfortunately, from german media in russia. so both sides here are the victims and really no winners in the situation. and we discussed all this. we spoke with ken livingston, the former mayor of london. we got his opinion on the closing down of our to the i'm believable,

it's like going back to the pretty will period sensitive noise can see things and particularly in i many dictatorships around the world isn't free speech. i mean, germany doesn't gain anything from closing down rush made. it just makes them look bad. we live in or out democracy based on freedom of speech and anyone's talking to constrain that is endangering democracy, i believe in free speech. now clearly, if someone makes a speech saying they want to go, people can burn down a, a synagogue or a most, they should be arrested and prosecuted. but i think someone should have the freedom to come out and say, i don't believe in climate change. as soon as you put somebody else on the show, they've been talking to rubbish. well, there's always gonna be different points of views and you know, 50 years of my life debating with people who had different views on how range of subjects and you've got a free media that allows that to take place. as i say,

no one should be allowed to advocate violence or spread racial hatred and things like that. but virtually everything else i think should be fine if people say something that i think he's mad, i just have a good laugh. a police watch job in the u. k. has reveal the disturbing internal culture of massage any and attitudes on sexual violence or warning. you may find some of this stuff offensive. the report includes private messages between offices of the metropolitan police force which serves greater london. and one and officer says he would like to rape a female colleague and other jokes about getting a women into bed using a knife as also racist and homophobic content. and some of those behind the texts are still in their jobs, taking a closer look now at these findings are corresponding, shadier edwards, dashti. all careful incidents of hey crime involving racist texas and homophobic messages have been discovered by

a watch drug investigation into the police. thousands of messages taking place between 20162018 were reviewed yet only 2 officers sucked. 9 of the 14 investigated are still serving in the 4th one another holds a contract to stop role. now the commission of faces schools to go, but not just from the public, but senior politicians, as well as former high ranking offices. we're not seeing one of instances we've seen now too many instances of the most appalling behaviors. i also think it shows a feeler of literature in some quarters. the met police may be the worst for institutional massage any and racism, but they're not the only ones. only a statutory judge lead inquiry will do. only new leadership will do. surely christ said it, they cannot be proud of her record when this is the norm in charing cross neck. yet her 6th through your salary, past was renewed last auden, which feels like rewarding failure. the defense just banned to apparently, in fact,

the independent office. so please conduct found an officer was named the great p, right, the following rumors about bringing a woman back to the police station to then sexually assault the met says it was sorry. we are deeply sorry to londoners and every one they have failed with their appalling conduct and acknowledge how this will damage the trust and confidence of many in the meant in the u. k. officers of the post the police by consent. but how can trust be restored? or even wasn't every what to investigate, to say the insidious culture is widespread. we believe these incidents and not isolated or simply the behavior of a few bad apples. the highly dumbing report is just the latest scandal under police commissioner, crescent dicks watch institutional feelings were placed under intense scrutiny by the rape and murder of sir evarado by a serving metropolitan police officer known to colleagues as the rapists during his

career in. i'm just the mecca serious about ridging the force of rotten abuses of power. surely those individuals must go and that both to all is a toxic, dangerous culture that yet again, leadership times a blind eye to any cost. this is just not an isolated instance. part of this culture, which is a very toxic culture, number of offices have been challenges way since we saw wayne cousin being arrested for the offense. murdering sara ever. all. there were number what this is from his own department that we charge to drape. is it damaging, is extremely damaging, significantly has damaged the reputation of the met police. i have spoken to number of women who have said they don't feel comfortable incoming, forward to report anything to offices. don't feel comfortable speaking to policemen and certainly will not get in the call of a policeman says that trust and damage amongst communities as well. how the culture

needs to be tackled head on. we need change now on the scale of abuse and new zealand catholic church has been brought her lives in a bombshell report, commissioned by the countries prime minister. the reports claimed that 14 percent of catholic clergy have all been accused of abusing children or even adults since $951.00 survivors spoke candidly to see about what he suffered. i was abused by a catholic school teacher, a brother, brother of a religious order, who abused me sexually on several occasions. and it may not help. i've filed the complaint, it's been out but, but then when i went to high school, i was also abused again by a priest of the of, of, of the, of the society of mary, the, for a religious priest. abused me. therefore,

in my particular case, i wanted to identify the, the patterns. because not only was i abused as a young boy in middle school here in new zealand. i went on to a catholic school and secondary level was abused sexually and physically again. and then i was abused by a priest in the diocese of, of the cast up the catholic diocese here in new zealand as well in dependent of the school. so i, because of my connection to the institution and because i remained connected, i was abused and at risk at least in 3 cases. so in the end, when i recorded the abuse, it involved 5 people or the research group probes reports of abuse files between 195-1999. most of them did come from children,

and nearly 1700 reports against members of the catholic church were made by over a 1000 people. and the allegations found physical, sexual and psychological abuse. well, the new zealand catholic church, i said it's deeply ashamed of the findings and grateful to those behind the research. it also pledged its commitment to transparency of christopher long host again, things the revelations so far adjust. the tip of the iceberg is that then not the 14 percent is simply the numbers of those people that have reported to the church and the church has recorded. now this number is extremely low based on the information that we have. for example, most of our members have not reported to the church. and we know that the church has not kept records of all those who have reported why. why do i know this? because members are religious orders and use them and have had told me that applying the matrix for each one complaint received. they were all between 6 and 10

people out there in the community who have suffered abuse and have not lodged a complaint. so if we do the mess the application of it forensic would mean that and use the ones catholic church alone. that would be between 11 and 14000 people who have been abused. 12 times the number that the church is reporting who have dealt with the abuse by leaving and being quiet could be with us here for the 1st a program on r t. so russia and china's 1st top level summit and over 2 years that will be kicking off on friday, coincides with the grand opening of the beijing olympics. so a correspondent, the chinese capital is it is donell. so the russian president vladimir putin and his chinese counterpart teaching pain about to sit at the same table face to face something that they have not done in over 2 years. the occasion is as good as it gets the opening ceremony of the winter olympic games. here in b g,

a head of his meeting with his chinese counterpart, lateral potent even wrote an article for china's dominating news agencies in what they focused on the cordial relationship between the countries between the leaders and on historical ties between the 2 nations. but given the geopolitical and diplomatic agenda has indeed accumulated between the 2 countries over the course of the past couple of years. it sounds like a perfect opportunity to, to some sports unrelated events. given that both nations up rule face a common adverse re, that's the united states, washington has been applying pressure on both russia and china and will, in doing so, we have been doing so in very similar ways. for example, the mainstream media headlines have been dominated by speculation. whether or not russia will indeed you crate speculation spearheaded by the white house and its

allies. and well, the general consensus among mainstream media analysts have being that, well, bet you money on. yes, that's despite russia vehemently denied any plans or intentions of the sort. and even ukraine also saying that it is not seeing any significant threat going on or anything well particularly threatening going on. it's buddhist with china. ukraine is $141.00 and the reverie is very much the same. the rhetoric is very similar when it comes to, well, the chinese ambitions and one taiwan is in question. and even the very subject olympic games has been util by washington to apply pressure on b. g. for example, washington announced a diplomatic boy of the games that's as the f b, i advised the american athletes to use for phones. so i think the thread over spine

is the main reason. so need lever code and the teaching thing have a lot to talk about. and it has already been announced that the 2 leaders will sign a very hefty pile of documents. and this includes of whose political initiatives, like, for example, creating and independent fiscal system that would allow both russia and china to withstand and counter any unilateral sanctions that may be imposed. ready against the nations by the united states and its allies, business deals are on the table as well, mainly in the energy market, given that russia is a major export of gas. and also it has been teased that latimer goodman teaching. will simon run them over new ways of building international relations in iraq, whatever it means, we will hopefully find out very shortly. and hopefully we'll also see if there are any well mystery books is hidden in the drawers of the presidents tables. i'm

a dish don reporting from beijing oxy. i spoke with economics professor benjamin chow, just a short time ago here on the program. he said it's unfortunate that some professional partners have been quick to politicize the olympics. the pitching on it is starting tomorrow, but the west is not reporting how well pitching is, is a time we check specially valuable for the statement trust them putting has made today because the west is now reporting how much beijing is facing the pressure of diplomatic boycott. from several key western countries, all this will not change the fact that it's a special olympics will be held after all, the spotlights should be on the, on the athletes, not on politics, but you will still be nice to have some support from the national leaders. so, and here we go, we have present 14, highly acclaimed bitching preparation and a believe dupage and we hope to be into olympics of the highest standard at the same time,

china is also very important to russia right now. if the situation and ukraine for developed to west is very likely sanctioned russia even florida, that would tip the balance to faith, racial china relationship even more as russia chinese tre, me rich, a historic height of about one $140.20 multiple to come here on the program, including that all mr. saca right, that the head of cnn has resigned. after being caught, lying over an affair with a colleague is just one of the many scandals that have been impacted that network of a recent weeks and months will give you the full report on that in just a minute. join me every person on the alex simon. sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport business. i'm sure business. i'll see you then. mm

. matt kaiser's financial survival guide. liquid assets are those that you can convert into cash quite easily. but keep in mind, no, ask for me to inflation better watch guys report when else shows seemed wrong when i was just a sheep out disdain. because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah

ah, right now 2020 minutes part of the out here on the russian capital. so the chief of police in ottawa has suggested that, well it might be necessary to call up the canadian army to deal with the protesting truckers who are continuing to demonstrate against the issue of mandatory cobit shots. there may not be a police solution to this demonstration. this is a national issue. every option is on the table to resolve this demonstration. i just want the warning truckers are standing firm blocking a border crossing with us. and they said they won't budge unless the government makes a yuton. and under current rules, anyone to enter in canada has to quarantine. if they're not vaccinated, thousands of truckers simply say, well that makes it impossible for them to do their jobs. though one of them told us he's been absolutely overwhelmed by the outgoing of public support number for

spanish. and when we're traveling on the convoy, i was the lead trucks and every bridge you came up to overpass. the crowds run believable. there was one bridge that i had to get across the pick up part of my convoy and hamilton, that the, the police were calling me and say, you know, when you come in, i might have to close it for leon bridge. there's 500 or more of your supporters on this bridge? it's getting unsafe. i was able to get through there, but i mean, it was yeah, there was people. hi 5 in me as i drive to drop my truck. it was just unbelievable . every bridge had flags. busy on it flying, there was companies that had big dreams up in the holding flags. there was, there was, there is thousands and thousands and thousands of people that we've seen and bridges wait for us in the fields by their farms logging companies,

sitting along the edge of the road. wait for us. it was, it was unbelievable. meanwhile the go fund, me website has blocked donation to the drivers, i think so called legal issues. and so i bought the campaign is raised around $10000000.00 canadian dollars for the truckers. so facebook is also stepped in actually removing a page, promoting that campaign, and something critics of slammed as censorship at its finest. the truck, uh, we spoke tuesday, the protesters will not given me all that canada is supporting us. we are getting support. busy for everything, we're not going to run this applause. we're not going to run out of time. what our prime minister doesn't understand is all those trucks that are there. they're not working because it is mandates. well, we have nowhere else to go. we can stay in our trucks where we're used to sleep in

and out. busy or trucks for weeks on and we stay on the road. we have just a quick count. we got sap hoses of trucks. ah, see an end boss? jeff sucka has fallen on his own sword fund lying about an affair with a colleague during the investigation into another scandal with the channel. that investigation was involved in the form of present of chris cuomo, jeff sucker, a world class sleep bag, who was headed ratings in real news challenge. cnn for far too long has been terminated for numerous reasons. but predominantly because c n, n has lost its way with viewers and everybody else. it had been a few weeks since someone had cnn resigned over some sexual deviancy. but jeff booker came through today and made sure we didn't forget what a band of sic perverts that entire news channel is. jeff zocker surprised his employees with an email announcing that he had been having an affair, a consensual affair with an employee, one of his colleagues,

and he did not disclose it under cnn's policies. what started out as a friendship, evolved into a romantic relationship. and because of that, he is stepping down from cnn. i acknowledged the relationship evolved in recent years. i was required to disclose it when it began, but i didn't. i was wrong. as a result, i am resigning. back in december john griffin, a producer at cnn, was arrested by the f. b. i on rather serious charges. he was taken the federal prison where he waits trial. ah, and john griffin was charge with setting up a facility to run interstate commerce for the purpose of learning in young, under age girls and their parents and training these under age girls to be sexually submissive. this is someone who rubbed shoulders with chris cuomo and you'll recall that chris cuomo also stepped down because it was proven that he was colluding with his brother andrew cuomo when he was facing scandals and eventually stepped down as

governor of new york. when my brother's situation became turbulent, being looped into calls with other friends of his and advisors and get include some of his staff. i understand why that was a problem for cnn. there's been another recent dust up kate rosenfeld. cnn commentator kat rosenfeld. she compared jo grogan's audience, so the podcast or joe rogan, who's been at the center of some controversy recently. she compared his audience to people that are overweight and made some other comments that many did not appreciate about the audience of joe rogan. here's what she said. here's people who, you know, they like something that we consider ourselves more enlightened. don't think it's good for them. you know, we think that they're internalizing this information that they're using it to make bad decision. many found these remarks to be somewhat ironic because the listenership and viewership of joe rogan's podcast is roughly 11000000 people. now it's important to know that the viewership of cnn has been significantly decreasing

. last year. in the 1st week of january, viewership of cnn was 2700000. but now in the 1st week of this year, it was only $548000.00 and many have looked on at this. and they've noticed that trust for mainstream media in the united states is certainly declining according to polls. and now, i guess we see that jeff zocker, after 9 years the head of cnn is stepping down not good times for cnn, and for american mainstream media. what we did speak to illegal and media analysts line. oh, he says cnn, like some other outlets of basically on their last legs. if cnn was a patient and a hospital, the doctor would call a co, the doctor would look at his watch or say, call that, that's it. they put the sheet over the patient. cnn is gone. if i didn't know better, i think cnn, before every broadcast says, what can we say?

that is so fundamentally stupid. so, and so unbelievable that people will talk about it. because we're not getting audience audiences from doing what we're doing. we have to get audiences by having people commented, how stupid we are. many people expect expect there to be fairness. many people believe that c n n owes them a duty of fairness. people will say, this isn't fair. cnn, their journalist, they're supposed to be journalist, this isn't fair. how can you say this? how can you get away with this? how can they do this if you can't do well on your show, say something stupid and hope somehow that, you know, social media picks up on. if social media pick up on your story, maybe that will help because that's the 2nd tier of their worth. not truth,

that journalistic integrity go. no, no, no, they don't care. did you notice us how to be doing the clicks on the metrics to we get like, are we being retreated? what are people saying are we viral? that's all they care about. cable news. as like a runaway train or al monster that keeps eating and consuming and you've got to keep feeding this monster 24 hours a day. anything, paper, just feed it. news stories, anything a click repeat we p. what other people are? we start your own problem. a story continues on line with a lot of comments. we're right now. if you actually check out our teasing you tube channels, but that's it for now here on this channel, lots of stories still to come. when we return, i hope to see you with, [000:00:00;00]

welcome to the alec salmon. sure. where we examine with a highly infectious or more convenient of novel corona virus, is really proving a blessing in disguise. when you set the african sciences discovered on a convenient, late last year, they quickly follow up with empirical and detailed clinical observations that the vision seemed my old and its impact compared with us delta arrival. however, it was only when their findings were confirmed by 2 studies in the u. k. the governments throughout the west and both started to discuss treating on record like the flute of relaxing social restrictions despite so in case numbers aren't of living alongside divided. so it's almost controversial in the her community that the patch you world wide vaccination program has failed to provide. or is it a collective base of wishful thinking, which could lead humanity open to further new and more deadly radiance?
