it's journalism.tories about america, often governmental stories, but my hope is that we'll expand to stories that tell a broader swath of information about america; entrepreneurialism, health, finance, how to start a business, stories that are just not being told globally that are coming out of america and can be told. but there are parts of the world where voa, and this is where it gets confusing, where voa is also a surrogate, and that's in central africa. so the only independent news in many parts of central africa is voice of america doing surrogate news. so when burkinaç faso had that problem, the only reporter on the air was the voice of america reporter when that coup went down. when the shootings, the terrible shootings in paris went down, it just so happened that a voice of america reporter was in paris and was able to do reporting for all of the other entities from paris. and is so voice of america -- and so voice of america wears two hats often. it's a larger, more capable organization fo

it means it can reach its journalism to more people than ever before in its history.ut it is a great challenge as well, in that it has to remake and rethink how it makes and sells its journalism. that requires absolute attention and focus. and i think it requires scale as well. and in reality, the "ft" is a 300 million pound journalism business in a 5 billion pound education business. and it was going to be increasingly difficult, not so much from an investment point. i think investment we could have dealt with. but to just bring the focus, the clarity, the additional insight and expertise, and the scale that absolutely is required by that focus on being the very best of journalism that it can be. francine: what you seem to be saying is it is difficult to make money in this because of social media. is it becoming harder? john: i think the "ft" does make money. as everybody knows, it was a lush year -- profits of 24 million pounds on sales of 300 million pounds. i very much believe that the "ft" has a sustainable and profitable future. but the best way of ensuring it c

journalism. moroccan authorities have a problem with citizen reporter d reportersnd, and the court case is underway. what's the store at davos, with the world economic forum, the people who go there and the journalists who cover it? last week, journalnism afghanistan was dealt a killer blow. seven geesbreght of the country's -- country's tolo t.v. were killed when the taliban targeted their bus in a bombing. last year, the militant group declared the channel a military target. this attack was a message to the rest of the afghan media. the targeting of tolo leaves journalists between a rock and a hard place with a threat posed by the taliban compounded from pressure from figures in the government to report in a way that suits their version of the political and social story that progress is being made. until last week's attack on the media, government officials and those with links to them had been responsible for more threats against afghan journalists over stories about corruption, land grabs, vi

it's journalism. stories about america, often governmental stories and my hope is it will expand to a broader swath of information about america, entrepreneurialism, how , finance, how to start a business, stories that are not being told globally that are coming out of american can be told. but there are parts of the world where voa is also a surrogate and that's in central africa. so the only independent news in many parts of america doing surrogate news. when burkina faso had that problem the only reporter in the air who went down with the voice recorder. when the shootings, the terrible shootings in paris went down it just so happened that a voice of america reporter was in paris and was able to do reporting for all the other entities from paris. and so voice of america wears two hats off in. it's a larger more capable organization but wearing to hats that's not to say in iran that there isn't remaining duplication but in my sense of the way we think about that the reform of that duplication withou

i think if we can be successful in bringing high-quality, professional journalism to influence those peer-to-peer conversations, particularly among moderate, perhaps moderate muslims in syria and iraq, places like eastern ukraine, china, the periphery, getting into this conversations and having a reputation as truth tellers in this conversations is really the most important thing. the last thing i will say to that is the investment that we have. the difference is really, let's take a snapshot of russia's investment in their state media versus the united states. it is really 102 one difference. we are the one. we are just under billion dollars. that billion dollars in different pockets is an interesting conversation, but calling it reform i think is an interesting approach, but i think the real reform would be to think about how serious do we want to invest in the messaging that is our messaging, which is the values of the united states as are presented by high-quality journalism. again, as talk about, little further into this idea of countering propaganda with straight journalism. yo

i think that that is significant for american journalism because i think that professional journalism does matter and is very important. i think having these organizations make that change in a way that is sustainable is crucial, really, to continuing forward. i would just say that i think new media is so exciting. used -- you used to be able to just put something on a piece of paper and print photographs or a flat graphic. that was all that you could do. the reason why i moved into digital is because it was so exciting. you could create databases that live on. you can explore things on your own and really understand a subject matter. i think different people learn different, so video is incredibly interesting and certainly has existed for a long time outside of print. we were just talking about the video on what a lot of our means. we went and talked to people in the community. ironically, or interestingly, we months before few everything started happening in san bernardino. we wanted to explain to people that this is not scary, what this means, how people interpret it, in a way that
