people debate, people start facebook campaigns, etc. they're not shut down for doing that, you know? and they have a slay underlaying politics unfold. some of these have been a textbook of genuine public engagement at the grassroots level all the way up to congress on key issues about how to manage the emergence of new technologies. when -- my response when talking to counterparts is, first of all, i do start from the premise that not only i, but my colleagues in other agencies who are working on these issues start from a commitment to principle and trying to figure out the practicalities, the nuts and bolts, the best way to approach these problems as members of congress. i assume they're trying to do as well. and, you know, the good news is that as we work this out, it's exposed to public scrutiny, and when criticisms come up, they're dealt with in an open way, and that's part of -- that is something that if everybody committed to that, we'd be a long way down the path. >> host: this is c-span's "communicators" program, our weekly look

., etc. they make the same mistakes that people do. there is -- in terms of trying to shut down speech or restricted the internet, there is also the openness of the conversation about how do we reckon with these new technologies? what should we do? how should we respond to the challenge of developing infrastructure, etc., and where those conversations are open in thet in the places they have been are corrected more easily. >> and looking at it, do you also have problems sometimes in making the distinction? some countries may be well- intentioned and make a mistake. is there copyright protection or child pornography and sometimes legitimate excuses for legitimate reasons for restricting -- are they cited by foreign governments and determine whether or not they are in fact legitimate? >> you're quite right. there is a set of legitimate challenges that arise as they do offline in terms of law enforcement or intellectual property protection. and there are some governments that star from the premi

people spread facebook convenes etc. but are not shut down for doing that. and they have a say on the way politics on fold. it's almost some of these have been almost a textbook case of a way of to the congress on key issues about how to manage of the emergence of new technologies and so mauney response when talking about the counterpart is first of all i desert from the premise not only on that my colleagues and other agencies are working on these issues start from the commitment of principal to figure of practicalities and the nuts and bolts but as the members of congress try to do as well the good news is as we work on the public scrutiny and when criticisms come up, they are dealt with in an open way and that this something that if everybody committed to that, we would be a long way down the path. >> this is c-span communicators the computer will look at policy and joining this week is daniel baer, assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights and leave orie and we are discussing their human rights report that the state department puts out and

etc. etc. i think this happens too many times. i am really an optimist because i believe the afghan people have something in them and they really wanted peace and a settlement. i don't mean those that are cashing in on corruption. >> look at what they have put up what is from us in the last 10 years. >> i have two questions. would you share your opinion on how the distinction with a two groups of the taliban with the same ideology? you thought that they were moving away from the [inaudible] would you share your opinion on what these two groups have that make them distinct? is what will it take for the pakistani taliban to allow the government to survive in a sustainable fashion? >> just for the sake of those who may not know the nuances, could you also just start by giving a quick thumbnail of your pakistani taliban are today and why they are distinct from the afghan taliban? >> the pakistani taliban initially rose in the border regions between afghanistan and pakistan as a result of the presence of the taliban and al qaeda's pres

etc but defacto police insist to inscribe this church and it's very difficult to say what it will be. first of all the opinion of the majority of member states in general because majority of member states. support polystyrene. like to try to help them but of course a just not proper time for emergency inscription because we hold that united states needed in a school and after the presidential election somehow they will you know returned. will will start to pay so so is it true that the resources that used to liking when americans should use this boycott the are impossible to compensate so you know camino survived with. or without the yeah i you know survive it's possible of course how you come to say you cutting your program says that it's impossible to compensate the man eagle telling the prince yes absolutely you're got your activity but in compensation i mean you know it's intergovernmental body it's not charity or some other fund which you can call so the other members are not ready to pay you to pay the move or you know of course a split on the other is that they didn't want to

and michael hastings has joined us, reporter for buzzfeed and, etc. etc.ve you here, michael, because we're going to talk about the press and how romney is running away from it. we had an event at the museum, a museum about the news, journalists. after he was done speaking they threw out the reporters. they said not only are you not allowed to ask questions you're not even allowed to listen to the questions. and there with a was a tweet from michael calderon who said, reporters kicked out of romney's talk at the "newseum"." >> maybe he didn't see it. >> cenk: he must have missed that one or the name of the museum. president obama did something similar as well. when go to mitt romney, well, he had this report of how he handled st. petersburg last month when reporters tried to ask him questions at a public event. look what happened. >> after the event was over, as romney was shaking hands with supporters along the rope line, they made sure that the candidate stayed on topic. this press aid physically stood in the path of reporters trying to make their way to

you know that the violence is still on the table etc etc one just let the sanctions work if they're working. peter well peter if you're stating that the sanctions are working and that's why the iranians came to the table that would appear to clash with what david just said that this is basically a toothless punishing of the iranian people and there's an interesting disagreement on oh i didn't know that was the case i didn't sit down again i didn't say it's toothless i said i'm going to first toothless in terms of changing policy. listen to the policy makers have sent a negotiator clearly they've been affected you suggested the sanctions on affecting the policy that's what i'm saying and again i'm. going to be i'm talking now what i think gentlemen is you know we did use well sanctions i'm going to be saying just words for change there i mean that's the difference of opinion here and it probably won't happen ok sanctions alone won't do that well i'm not sure about that but i'm talking more getting communicate clearly i'm talking about the injustice of it i think it's incredibly uncivilized t

you know there's a run on banks etc there's not a whole lot of preparation that you can do except for maybe by some credit default swaps that the arabs read and so on and cases i want to talk more about this we're going to go to break quickly when we come back we're going to talk more about the threat to u.s. banks that they may not be prepared for we'll have more of edward harrison founder of credit write downs also still ahead we already talked about spain's formal request for a bank bailout but we'll take a look at some of the more creative protests spaniards have waged against those banks in loose change but first your closing market numbers. wealthy british style. is no time to. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to conjure reports on our. the the for . welcome back before the break we were talking about the eurozone crisis and the risks to u.s. banks the dissolution risk the risk of what happens when the euro no longer is and there's all of these contracts

., etc.at i see. i get the chris christie who gets not all but a lot of his money from hedge fund managers from new york who do a lot of his bidding. is that part of the portrait. >> i think it is. the portrait we tried to make down the middle. there is a part of him from immigrant families, and there is another part of the guy from new jersey, and there is another guy that is republican. >> cenk: yeah, i mean, look at his big boners, charles schwab, home depot founder all hedge fund guys. as i look at that and one other part he gives $1.57 million to state tax breaks. i feel like the whole image constructed there is a little fake because it seems like he's a regular guy but in evaluate he gets his money from these hedge fund guys and gives giant tax breaks to the rich. that's not a regular guy. that's a guy looking to help the rich. >> well, he grew up in sort of regular-guy family so to speak. despite the fact that he's well off now and he espouses some of those policies you were just talki

for errrands course for shopping, etc.. i wanted to ask the supervisors that if we are targeting that made group -- that little group that anne in and spoke about -- >> thank you. i would like to ask that next time you be a part of the presentation. you should get to know a lot of the groups here today. i hope you start working with them together. you definitely address the needs of a particular group that needs attention here in san francisco. i want you to be part of the bigger discussion instead of an outsider, which i do not think you are. -- outlyer, which i do not think you are. i'm hoping you can get together with the senior action network so that you can be included in in the discussion. gregg's we have been working in a lot of the neighborhoods. >> that is an integral part of it. >> thanks. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is marilyn, and i'm a social manager case worker with meals on wheels. i'm here to represent one of our clients, "c" we will call her. mrs. c cannot be here herself. she is homebound and b

understand their point of view and vice versa. >> give us a snapshot of espn, an employee, revenue, etc. >> it is a 33-year-old company out of bristol, conn.. over the course of those years, lots of great work by lots of great people that established the espn. it is truly the premier sports media company. we have 724 sunsplash 7 networks -- we have seven 24/7 networks. mobil espn. we want to reach fans wherever they are. we've picked up from all media to new media, whether it is print with a magazine come espn radio, espn television and all the way to new applications. we want to serve fans and all of those platforms. that is a unique characteristic. we consider cable television to be the core of what we do and we will always remember the that is what got us here, serving fans there and making sure that, when they wanted to consume sports and other platforms, that we were there as well. >> this is "the communicators" on c-span. now we're joined by the chief political correspondent for cnn, host of "john king usa." how has your job changed since the last presidential election? >> i repor

i have been representing people, blacks, browns, at such drug -- etc. for over 20 years.

and then the guys who are greedy and say, i want all the money etc.rection i feel like they're going to crash the economy again and this time worse. am i being too pessimistic or is that the direction we're heading. >> oh, i think there is a significant rich. one of the lessons that most economists took out of the crisis was that we needed, for instance getting our banks back to the boring business of lending and away from gambling and risk taking. we didn't do that. we said we have to make the banks more transparent. we didn't do that. in some ways the financial sector is worse because we made our big banks even bigger. too big to fail. too big to be held accountable. the result of that is there is an incentive for them to engage in more risk taking. >> cenk: is it definitely going to blow up again? >> i don't wanting to that far but the risk is very high. >> cenk: yeah, i would. i think it's inevitable. it's a matter of logic. you keep taking this level of risk you will at some point crash. >> you see the example would be jpmorgan. one company betti

etc and they knew very well that at the beginning of the euro there were large inequalities in europe so they knew it and they said oh it's no not a problem we create a system. called the jones. and that was a treaty of mastic the norms of maastricht and they said no we're going to level up all the counties to prepare two thousand and two into the introduction of the euro and now we are ten years later and we see that the inequalities in europe. were level to at zero but it's created more inequalities than ever in the last fifty years in europe and of course the country in focus right now with spain again we're seeing the same solution being prescribed assets prescribed to greece and ireland i think really that the financial sector in all of europe should be transformed tyrannically in that we need the public sector in finance in all over europe because now they can be allowed spain into. but it's all a very short term measure as it's structurally it isn't changing a lot and i hope they will help as a short term but you need also measures at the long term in europe and so i instance i

. -- height and bulk, etc. i have indicated my intent to amend this to limit it to new construction because there has been some concern raised about conversion of existing apartment units and that is something that will be a longer conversation in terms of how to address that. i would like to and i do move to continue this one week because we do have language we want to distribute and make sure that people are able to see and it will come again to the board next week. my motion is to continue the item by one week. supervisor chiu: is there a second? supervisor campos. further discussion? supervisor olague: adhahn i know of one week is enough time but there was some thought of splitting up certain aspects of the legislation so that we could have a better grasp on some of the conversion, questions around converting some current units or existing units and

the poor ever closer it's going to be italy and spain then next could be france or belgium or austria etc and then they're going to continue to try to paper it over and at some point they face a decision either we stop it because it's getting too close to the core or we let the whole thing collapse well that's a really interesting point because there was an article in a gym german newspaper over the weekend talking about how well the germans are buying swiss property at any price because they just want out of their euro denominated assets they want to escape any kind of threat of a euro collapse and i guess my question from that is is there more of a concern when you have germans losing faith in the euro and concerned about the crisis does that show it's reaching that core we already know the german see the numbers have already been moving up somewhat and we have to remember that germany has eighty two percent debt to g.d.p. been over the maastricht hurdle a number of times in the last decade they have their banking system is under capital they have already had to build some bags one of t

., etc.question we need real wall street reform. to get wall street reform we need fed reform. we got to get the bankers off the regional fed. >> eliot: that logic is perfect and exactly right. one of the things that you alluded to in the report to show that the assets that are owned by families have dropped by 30% to 40% over the last couple of years, a critical component has been housing prices. housing prices collapsed because of the cataclysm of '08. we have not done anything fundamentally to the mortgage market. the banks have trillion of dollars. homeowners got zip. nothing. can anything be done at this late stage in the obama administration? >> can anything be done? yes. will it be done? probably not. it's not because smart people don't have good ideas about how to do it. it really has to get back to the unbelievable power of wall street with citizens united by the bay way it makes wall street reform much more difficult. i will tell you from a political perspective i think the american

we looked at geography, etc. we are pleased by the fact that we have made an expansion of hours a priority and we have been successful. as of today -- and i want to emphasize this -- all of our libraries are open five, if not six days a week. what we are proposing in this year's budget is two more branches that would be open one additional day. that is the visitation valley. this is in keeping with a plan to be strategic to where the need is. we have also opened up new facilities, have been delivered about the hours on that. the proposal would get us to 54% of all of our libraries open seven days a week. look at that comparison with other cities across the nation. san francisco is at 54%. san jose has only 5%. seattle, 44%. chicago, 4%. philadelphia, 2%. this means san franciscans really are supporting their libraries, and we are supportive of the preservation fund, but we are also the only urban library in the nation that has had no impact during the economic downfall. we are proud of that but we also continue t

etc now you're telling me maybe we're going to europe will have to build a separate new city somewhere to show some kind of neutrality i don't know but the thing is is that when european integration started after the second world war maybe in the in the genetic code of the founders political union was the ultimate goal but it was the people were told that the how do you feel about it being forced upon you because of necessity and that's not necessarily democratic it's really difficult to understand the european integration process as a. steady pro. so you know that we really need crosses to come to different level of conscience works or hope needs to be done and i don't think that when you look back that there was a constant planning process not because it was and. perhaps it was a big mistake you know to introduce to europe before there was. a better form of a political system within the year. but i'm not so sure i mean very by nationality you know you're a skeptic the angles next few of you will be the skeptic what you found we are ok. it's just always always like there's a problem i
