no, the chinese bloggers themselves. that itself extended the political fear, far larger and they can imagine 10 years ago, five years ago. so today online new digital media actually is setting agenda of even official me. despite all the control. among those private citizen voices are the contents, there are a significant portion of it are being marginalized. they cannot be totally suppressed because of the internet by nature is information all over the place and. a government can suppress them into the smaller pocket places, and can completely delete it. so those marginalized blogs were deleted content start to appear overseas, including my own china digital times. and then the question is how the digital inside is accessed. whether they are from voice of america bbc, free asia or from other websites. and there are the tools and other methods that access the information matters. and your organization, one of the groups actually produced a set of very effective circumstantial tools, along which other practices that contr

this blogger was put on trial and moscow actually. user moscow. and then he was brought to chechnya and put on trial again. and now, nobody knows what happened within. >> he disappeared? >> yeah. but more usual way to deal with people who trying to work as civil journalist, and now actual civil journalist, it's, we have a special law which allows authorities to grant people and put them in prison. and what our sources considered any criticism against them. >> if we had that law in the united states, after politicians would be in jail. [laughter] >> it happened in russia, and we're trying right now probably internet would be the first in russia. actually, i would say some words about russian internet. you talking a lot those things about facebook and twitter. does not the case in russia actually. because -- >> do you have a cloudless? >> yeah, but social nets like russian, social network, facebook is getting more popular in russia. twitter also. but what we have is less. that's why when i am talking about civil journalist, i am calling them of blog

a journalist is somebody, a blogger is somebody, and i'm not sure it's significant. the question is is there information -- is their information accurate? can it be verified and have meaning in the lives of others? >> perhaps it is significant in one instance i can think of that's significant. when journalists go to report on a story somewhere and they are detained by a particular government, a commercial, we had one of our reports -- reporters for example killed in libya and another still being held. that can kick that organization to get you released. if you're a blogger, that's not always the case. >> if you work for general electric or general motors or something like that, there's cases where businesses really fussed when their people were held up and so forth, but i mean, you're right, but, look, always got to think about the quality of our product. is it really -- have we penetrated? have we explained what's really going on? i sense you people are operating by the seat of your participants in many cases where it's not clear what to do and you have to take some

it's a website powered by an army of mom bloggers. but occcurated by clorox itself. there are blog entries written by clorox employees, like amanda, talking about composting. or this post, about quote, barfs, coughs and nose boobers by clorox employee, fifny. a subject matter that would make anyone want to buy a box of clorox cleaners. the company's ceo, fed rated media. joined by bloomberg business and kim mcnicholas of forbes. let me start with not just clorox, you've done it for lexus and general electric and nbc. general electric is a part owner of this television station, let's get that out of the way. what do companies find valuable in doing this sort of marketing? >> i think the key for companies is to talk to consumers prior to purchase. so there's all kinds of ways to advertise and get convince consumers that this is the right product versus within of their competitors at point of sale. but well prior to that, they want to engage consumers in a conversation about the category or about their area of expertise. >> this is, this is conversation, that is, i was

and i was talking about the blogger who was doing some thought which wasn't liked and this blogger was trial in moscow actually, he was from moscow. and then he was brought to chechnya and put on trial again and now nobody knows what happened with him. >> he's disappeared. >> yeah. but more usual ways to deal with the people who are trying to work as civil journalist, and, is to tell him we have a special law which allows authorities to take people and put them in prison for creamism. and what also is discussed, they consider any criticism against them. >> if we had hah law in the united states, half the politicians would be in jail. >> and it's in russia and we're trying right now, probably internet would be the first in russia. actually, i would say some words about russian internet. you're talking a lot those days about facebook and twitter. not the case for russia actually because what -- >> do you have equivalent? >> yeah. but social nets like russian social network. facebook is getting more popular in russia. twitter also. but what we have is like journals. that's why when talkin

anybody's material sadly i think right haven knew it too they just wanted to make a buck off of bloggers regardless so we here on the show want to thank judge john mccain for giving us a glimmer of hope in today's often gloomy society of greed and corruption. now fox news claims to be fair and balanced about slogan well it's pretty laughable not only is the network explicitly right wing but you could even say that it's an arm of the g.o.p. just look at all the potential republican candidates and it's employed from sarah palin and mike huckabee to rick santorum and newt gingrich but has the channel run into a little trouble for fox news chairman roger ailes while the network is beating out all of our cable news channels when it comes to the ratings a new piece a new york magazine by gabriel sherman looks at the potential downsides of those ratings but berger theories hosts calling the president a racist all of that might have earned roger ailes nine hundred million dollars last year but the theory's an extreme that some of those hosts may have also lost the republican party the two thousa

but it's really hard to find these bloggers, um, unless you know where to look. and then you have to know, well, who's credible? this guy who says he's blogging about lebanon, is he even in lebanon? how do you know? so we developed this team of bloggers around the world who kind of cure rate what's the most interesting stuff coming out of the world, so we have people doing digest about what's coming out of the arabic blogosphere this week, what are the hottest kind of conversations going on, or what's going on in the russian blogosphere and the russian internet? we've got several people who are following that. so it's a way to help, help, you know, people in the english-speaking world get a better handle on the conversations that are happening online globally, and we've got a lot of volunteers that are translating back and forth into different languages, so it's a lot of fun. it's a nonprofit. and then global network initiative is, basically, t a multistake -- it's a multi-stakeholder initiative around free speech and privacy for the internet and telecommunicatio

criticism as a deal would mean withdrawing from occupied palestinian territories political writer and blogger emily hauser says benjamin netanyahu is comments reveal he's never really supported the peace process. there is absolutely zero chance that the united states either government or congress will be turning its back on the jewish state anytime soon this president like all the presidents before him has stated over and over again that this country support for israel is ironclad and moreover the members of congress who have a lot of say in this are bizarrely often to the right of israel's own parliament in terms of the things that the resolutions they will pass regarding the israeli palestinian conflict what happened here was the president said out loud what has long been known to be true what has long been stated in peace proposals for twenty years frankly and the president stated it knowing that mr netanyahu knew it so i can only presume that the president knew that mr netanyahu would respond badly but what that did was it revealed mr netanyahu for never having been on board with the peac

government washington claims that iran's revolutionary guard is aiding the crime down across syria and a blogger stephen leatherman says it's tehran that's the real endgame for the u.s. operations in the region. i think iran is the end target and the game may be to dealing with countries in iran's orbit what's going on in syria right now is regime change if they can be and not incitement is to get the syrian people there and of good leads to a new regime in syria that they're very good care that accomplishes the objective by regime change revenue go into war but if it doesn't work then watch for the marines to come in maybe the idea is that change what's going on and it isn't worth the two well getting new faces in there is a daunting waste and frankly overseas in syria so it can be separated in camps along. the links from the other. experiment. and of course we are keeping up to date on the latest from the middle east to rival palestinian groups and hamas agreed earlier in the week to unite their governments in the west bank and gaza the move comes ahead of a u.n. vote of on palestinian stateho

a blogger from cairo. thanks for being with us. a simple question.dent of the united states is going to give a dramatic speech designed to reach out to the arab and muslim world and people like you in the middle. is there anything you want to hear from the president or does it not matter? >> i really don't see america's role by any means whether it's the president or not even just america, any country's role to intervene in any kind of domestic issues. to be frank, this is the government and the policies of whether it's president obama or any previous president that supported a dictator like mubarak and the aid, the 1.5 billion that egypt redeems goes to the army. this is the same army that has been terrorizing and cracking down on peaceful protesters. this is completely unacceptable. at this point whatever president obama will address will really be irrelevant to what the situation is in right now. we are visiting democracy from the bottom up by the people from within the people and for the first time in the arab world the united states or any forei

tech blogger blowing the whistle on one of the country's biggest pr firms.contributor that works for the public relations outfit was trying to plant anti-google stories in the press. here is what he e-mailed. i wanted to gauge your interest in authorizing an op-ed this week for a top-tier media outlet in an important issue that i know you're following closely. google's sweeping violations of user privacy. i'm happy to help place the op-ed and assist in the drafting. for media targets i was thinking about "the washington post," politico, the hill, roll call or the huffington post. he posted the e-mails. "usa today" also wrote about this approach after he and another person on the staff tried to pedal the anti-google material. dan lyons reported in "the daily beast," the secretive client is facebook. plain dirty fool from a rival company. good for the journalist who exposed him. it won't happen again. after the break, now we learn that it was pouring at the osama bin laden compound. so i take one a day men's 50+ advantage. it's the only complete multivitamin w

blogger j. dilla verso about this here is what he had to say. well i mean let me clarify secretary gates he just a few weeks ago to west point i can january was coined that any any secretary defense advise another president a big army and do it africa asia etc should have his head examined as secretary to libya secretary gates has been very critical of libya he said we should not under his watch we wouldn't be there secretary gates has been very critical of the afghanistan coffee's also been very critical of the bush administration's decision to leave us in iraq and he's been there in my opinion the secretary defense ever that we've had and the position however there is a lot of serious concern here because there's nothing that secretary gates can do or say to stop what we have which is a. postmodern empire the united states isn't even encouraging i mean he said that too many cuts danger that's right well i mean because here's here's the situation with the current political system that we have it could there even ever be too many cats in defense

bill was involved in a sex scandal lawsuit of his own with a former producer on his show the media bloggers other sites all had a field day with that story bill sex scandal also involves a phone messages he left on the woman's answering machine that included talk about vibrators threesomes masturbation stewardess trysts and if you are things that i'm just not allowed to say on t.v. obviously the story was discussed all throughout the media and on the internet so i'm guessing that in bill o'reilly's mind the internet really is a vile place because they called him out for preaching family values while leaving messages on his producer's answering machine that i really don't think his wife appreciate it so boo yes bill sometimes the policy information does get out on the internet but that happens on your show on your network on a daily basis so stop blaming the internet for you and arnold sleazy pasts and that's why bill o'reilly is tonight's told time later. well it's been three weeks and so some of bin laden was killed in his compound in abbottabad pakistan and although one of the biggest thr

media response of the killing of osama bin laden and for that we go to danny schechter filmmaker and blogger joining us from our new york studio. hey there danny i guess i just want to start by getting your take on the media coverage thus far. well you know it gave the media something big to deal with and to feel important about even though twitter seems to have beaten most of the television networks to this story according to a number of reports including one and usa today nevertheless this is the kind of story that media outlets t.v. and networks live for because it gives them a chance to use their old footage it gives them a chance to appear to be on the inside of a breaking story and they basically compete with each other to add a key detail here or there or a key visual here or there to show that they're on top of it and they're ahead of their competitors the problem is as some of your guests have been saying earlier the whole role of what it is what it does how it's been organized is seen it seems to be missing in the coverage namely that it's really more of a decentralized network hom

how torture may have played a role in the hunt for bin laden so tonight i'll speak with military blogger jim hansen to figure out what we've heard is really fact and what's fiction then all the economic front i'll ask if the u.s. has gone bankrupt searching for al qaeda is never want or is in iraq and afghanistan the cost of homeland security all of these factors have weighed heavily on our national purse so when we realize we can't afford any more war answer in marks the fortieth anniversary of his significant protests that took place here in washington d.c. so on this historic day will investigate why there are any large scale protests in our country like we used to see and decades past and we love this segment so much but we've expanded it to cover every day this week it's happy hour i'll be joined by jim hansen and producer jenny churchill discuss all the stories that are making a buzz but that fun is going to have to wait until the end of the show up first our top story. less than two days after osama bin laden was killed by the u.s. there are still a lot of uncertainties surroundin

joining me now for more is danny schechter he's a filmmaker and blogger also former c.n.n. pretty there jenny thanks for joining us from new york right there i want to ask you you know one of the issues that that reporter brought up is that the united states is not always or often or nearly as are held culpable for some of these killings because of the rules of engagement i'm curious in the reverse if these were american journalists being killed if this would be by other countries if this would be the same case do you think. well i think there would be a lot more indignation you know in the american media if american journalists were killed overseas by other governments but you know in this particular case for example the palestine hotel which i covered in my film weapons of mass deception reuters the news agency pressed for a full investigation they were rebuffed by the united states government they want to know what happened to their journalists and nobody would get back to them so they alone stood up other news organizations did not show and she american government on th

on with him talking more detail about what's going on the ground we thank you so much that was a blogger are so worked up. now the subject of capital punishment in the u.s. isn't without controversy but the way in which that some american states have begun executing their death row inmates could in fact according to some critics and on to torture some of those critics are furious with several states that are literally experimenting with lethal injections and all of this in light of a massive shortage of the key most drug for these the evil injections called sodium thiopental i'm now going to bore you with the scientific details of all this but the crux of the story is that the only u.s. manufacturer of this drug actually moved its operations to italy where the company was and then forced to stop making it after the italian officials figured out what it was used for killing people now the shortage prompted some american states to seek other suppliers for example in britain and so that government also banned the export for use to kill people so what you busy death penalty states do when th

how can she distinguish herself from a citizen journalist or a blogger? need there be a distinction? that goes into a whole nother question of who is a journalist. nobody wants to tackle that question. >> you should also visit new terms and talk to journalists about what they do. >> i will try to be quick. i think there is a spectrum of journalism and there are professionals. citizen journalists along the spectrum, but they are all valuable. i was going to say, one of the things you should learn how to do is promote yourself and promote your brand. you can get on tomorrow, you can build clips like no other time in history. you can do that on facebook, your web site. learning how to use your network to promote the thing that you care about, what to write about, is a huge scale that the internet will allow you to do. >> my name is claudia. i worked for pat. my question is for everyone on the panel. -- i work for patch. noting the lack of hispanics on the panel, how do newsrooms address in-language content and sourcing? try to get people in the community, th

global voices on line is an international bloggers media network that i found it along with a dear friend and colleague of mine when i was up at havard on the center for internet society and the idea is you know there are people all over the world using the internet to talk about all kinds of very interesting things, and when we started it in 2004 the idea was, there are all these bloggers in the middle east or in africa and around asia. we are talking about things happening in other countries at the media is not reporting on just because you know the media can only report so much etc., etc.. but it is really hard to find these loggers unless you know where to look. then you have to know who is credible, this guy who says he is blogging about lebanon is even in lebanon? how do you know? so we developed this team of bloggers around the world to curate what is the most interesting stuff coming out of different regions of the world and got a little funding and started translating things back and forth so we have people doing digests about what is coming out of the arabic blogosphere this wee
