and she searched the interview that she'd given to associated press at the time. and she found that they haven't actually included her statement, they didn't created a lot of this stuff that she had said, but they haven't included the statement. no, as far i could take a place and she said that she made this statement repeatedly over and over again. but if you want to, you'll get to the reality of what happened that it's just taken, listen to what you actually said. you were josh to win. and so the associated press report has taken the photo, ask them not to do it because i didn't need it. and i didn't want it. i didn't give any consent for the photo and i didn't give any consent for the publication. so they published it on their own initiative. they also asked if there wasn't there, right. i said no one heard the rate. apparently they didn't need that information and cut it out because everything except when it happened and that we were in the maternity hospital. so i think that we're very selective with statements that i know you've spent a lot of time working i

she said she was surrounded by a camera crew of photographers from associated press. and she'd like to gave him an interview. now of course i stayed cool some controversy. there was a big around with the united nations security council, like what really happened in the hospital. russia insisted that the hospital was not the target, that it was not buttons from the as the ukrainians on the ground was like the hostage or had, in fact being taken over by you quite new soldiers sometime before. now marianna, herself, we oversee, she was at the center of this huge storm blowing off across the west of media across social media and telecom channel was on the rock and she searched the interview that she'd given to associated press at the time. and she found that they haven't actually included the statement, they didn't created the loss of the stuff that she had said, but they haven't included the statement. no, as far i could take a place and she said that she made this statement repeatedly over and over again. but if you want to, you'll get to the reality of what happened th

they were followed by getty images and then the press association. it is really unusual.ome examples in the past, but this is really, really unusual. and also, i think it's the sudden fall from grace, from a picture that was meant to be a nice, friendly family picture. suddenly, it's sort of attacked by these very aggressive—looking kill notices. major news agencies, specifically the associated press and reuters, pulled a photo released today by kensington palace over concerns that it may have been manipulated. it's very rare, but they have put in new rules very late... - ..like recently, with everything going on, with wars and so on. j so they're being a lot hotter- on what can and can't get through. i mean, it's such a severe thing to get a kill notice, _ and i think it's unfortunate - the royal family were the first big names to get struck by it, with everything else - going on with them. i think it's unprecedented to do it this way round. i mean, ithink the royal family have, in the past, stopped photographs that have been taken by the paparazzi or illegally. so it's

press. photographers association, we have the — national union of journalists.hical codes and codes of conduct, _ say that absolutely no manipulation can go ahead because that lessens the trust for us . in the public's eye. but is editing photographs intended for the media new and unusual? for the press industry, retouching and manipulation is not allowed. i the most basic alterations that you can do are - things like sharpening, - brightening, maybe darkening. you're not allowed to obscure things in photographs, you're not allowed i to take things away. cropping is allowed, - staging is allowed in portraits, but not in other situations. the monarchy has always needed the media. i mean, it started with the age of queen victoria. she adored photography, and then she had... she was photographed all the time. there's an early picture of queen victoria, i think it's from 1852, with the children. she took one look at this image and she hated it. she got her thumb and she scratched it out. so there — in this image, in this photograph — you've got five nice children an

the associated press issued what is knowns a kill notification, it said at closer inspection it appears source has altered the image. today, pa media, the uk's biggest news agency has also withdrawn the photograph. in the last few hours the princess of wales has responded on social media. it is actually a good photograph in terms of emotion, trying to get three children to smile is difficult. and it is a great photograph from that point of view, visually. it is when you zoom in and see the technicalities. i think prince william likes to control the photographs that are going out, because he's determined to stop the paparazzi approach that ruined his mother's life. the princess of wales was last seen in public on christmas day. injanuary, she was admitted to hospitalfor abdominal surgery. princess catherine's surgery, there has been speculation about her health. this photograph was meant to be an informal family picture and intended to reassure the public, but it appears to have backfired. the princess of wales' explanation about the photograph, will it be enough to calm the speculation?

from a new question from associated press. out of ten americans say they are not confident in biden's mental abilities. thus, there is only real hope for ukrainians. ukranatsik yevhen diky suddenly announced that the suspension of military assistance from the united states was the work of the ex-president and the current candidate for the post of head of the white house donald trump. you can't take someone out of a race because that's the way the opponent wants it to be, and it has nothing to do with them being the leading candidate. it doesn't matter if the leading candidate is a candidate or a candidate who is far down the standings. you can't take someone out of the race. only voters can remove a person from a race, and very quickly, but not judges. with the adoption of this decision , attempts to remove the former leader also ceased in two other states. president. the three justices, in a separate concurring statement, insisted that allowing the measure in colorado would lead to chaos in every state. amid the tense politic

presumably, six people died as a result of a bridge collapse in baltimore, the associated press reportslaughs referred to the chapter construction company whose workers were on the bridge at the time of the work. at first, the employees were considered missing, but later they were declared dead. the search was suspended until the next day. let me remind you that a day earlier the francis skutaki bridge collapsed after a cargo ship crashed into its support. the us embassies were suspended during the presidency of joe biden. emphasizes that since biden came to power, many diplomatic offices have been closed, and this leads to a decrease in the level of diplomatic presence usa in the world. the congressman called such actions a failure in foreign affairs, and they literally attacked him during a speech in north carolina. biden spoke about the importance of providing health care. interrupted his speech with shouts, demanding to stop this conflict, medical services, related to a specific model or program, due to many shortcomings in the airline, the management is resigning, so the general di

i think initially the associated press, to recall the picture, this so—called kill notice, where theydoubt on...essentially saying as they later said that they that they had detected an element of manipulation of the picture. so i think it was inevitable that taken together, those things were going to mean it was going to get a lot of attention from from across the media, including the bbc. david, the royal family often does events with media coverage in mind. so i guess the case that the bbc is making is, isn't it valid for bbc news to look into some of its affairs when there is a story? well, yes, certainly to look into it when there is a story. and, yes, there was a bit of a story here. but to have it as such a major item throughout the day was just wrong. the princess is just getting over abdominal surgery. the royals live their life in the goldfish bowl. i imagine her mental health is quite fragile at the moment, and i know that the bbc are very keen on promoting mental health, and i don't think having this plastered all over the bbc all day and all evening was conducive to her w

according to the video section of the associated press jabalia hospital , because of this siege and the north. a lot of martyrs and injured have suffered the embarrassment of marj. jabalia hospital in the gaza strip has seen horrific scenes. in this hospital, injured people are being treated after the attack on palestinians waiting for help. to according to eyewitnesses, israeli forces on thursday towards the crowd of palestinians who were waiting for help in gaza city. according to the health authorities, more than 100 people were killed during this shooting, and thus the number of palestinians killed since the beginning of the israeli attacks has reached more than 30,000 people. what is happening to us is unfair. to be honest, we just want to live and something to eat why target this young man because he went to get something to eat for his children, this young man went to get a bag of flour like all those who were killed and shot at this scene look, look, the israeli authorities have admitted that they opened fire on the palestinians, and in a statement from the israeli army, it is s
