steve: it is also winston churchill and edward r. murrow. prof. brynes: murrow is particularly interesting because he skirts on some level the boundary between news and commentary. that is also something that is happening during this time. you have people that are very well-versed going on the radio and explaining important events and important policies to the american people. it is hard to do that without making some kind of judgment, so it is not exactly straight news. on some level, it is also advocacy. i think that is an important andi think that is an important part of what i consider formative time in radio in american politics. all sorts of lines of being blurred. the line between news and entertainment is being blurred. the line between straight news reporting and advocacy is being blurred. steve: some have described radio as the most personal and visual of mediums. would you agree or disagree with that? prof. brynes: certainly the way franklin roosevelt used it in the fireside chats was personal. he moved away from the bombastic oratory t

. ♪ to lead them, the people had chosen winston churchill as their prime minister. every british heart, when he said -- >> we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. we shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in the field and in the streets and on the hills. we shall never surrender. >> this was britain in its darkest hour. the people knew they were in for the worst, yet they did not panic or run away. they patrolled and waited. they drilled and waited. they worked and waited. waited for the terror they knew was coming. then, it came. that is the sound that became part of the life of every man, woman and child in britain. >> august, 1940 and the battle for britain is on. >> the enemy flying due west. >> here comes the louvre waffle. dozens of flights. hundreds of planes. bombers, fighters. the dive bombers. across 21 miles of channel. their first tactics were to bomb convoys in the channel. convoys loaded with food and munitions. convoys to the port of london. german fighters waited overhead for the defending plains of the royal air force, the raf to app

so many years own when winston churchill set the police on the striking miners this was before the the money strike of the seventy's with margaret thatcher because politicians tend to overreact i think in some cases i think with regard to the. the churchill episode where he did set the place on the minus i find that very disappointing with regard to the profile that winston churchill has of the nation and likewise with margaret thatcher with the issues of the nineteen seventies and now particular where i live it's surrounded by the moment former mining communities once which would thriving with every house hope you provide now you know a lot of the house a border and the whole economy is totally changed in the mining community and in the ship ship building community in sunderland which is very sad but there are again politicians make decisions in the go to stand by them the must go on ikey was an exhibition whereby the major piece of that exhibition. was a pig a piece of sculpture called erotic smile or a mess cooper to us which by coincidence happens to be the motto of the. there symb

winston churchill famously commented when hitler's turned east in 1941, and the prospect of the ussr as an ally loomed. that had hitler invaded hell, i would have made a favorable reference to the devil in the house of commons. the old epithet of my enemy -- of the enemy of my enemy being my friend, but underlying that wartime relationship was the fact that winston churchill famously had said in the aftermath of the russian revolution, the intended strangled bolshevism at its birth. it was really, probably only a matter of time before the allies went their separate ways, splitting along ideological and power political lines. the fundamental question, what would happen to germany now that the war was over was almost in -- was foremost in everyone's minds. what steps were necessary to underpin an effective and and enduring peace? not even 30 years had passed since the war to end all wars had been fought. ally supreme commander in 1918, the ink was barely dry on that settlement in june of 1919, that this is not a piece, merely an armistice for 20 years. a rearmed, reinvigorated germany

now, this poem has been used by the likes of winston churchill in a speech to the house of commons.n mandela doing his long years in prison he recited to other prisoners. u.s. pows in a north vietnamese prison, the hanoi hilton, to include john mccain and admiral james stockdale who said he received the poem written with red droppings on a napkin. president barack obama recited it at nelson mandela was funeral. you see, i think this poem serves to remind us that our fate is up to us, to ensure we remain undefeated, that we have to make the choices essential to our soul, the ones we won't regret. in the first stanza he is telling us although he has many hardships, black pits suggests that this was a deep depression he was going through, a spiritual darkness. yet his sole soul remain untou. it also implies that is uncomfortable soul as a gift from god perhaps -- on comparable thereto then describes in the second stanza although his body is ravaged with disease and pain, he remains mentally strong and unashamed. a cruel grasp. he states clearly that despite being tightly held in an awf

so the answer directly, i am going to quote from winston churchill, "the democratic process is pretty our lives." i think that is a pretty straightforward answer your question. now, whether strikes are part of the political democratic process, i believe that they are. and on that note, we have to end. thank you. good morning. it's been a lovely spell of autumn warmth for some of you so far this week. yesterday, we saw temperatures reach 2a degrees in lincolnshire. same spots, though, by the time we hit friday could be a good 10 degrees lower, if not a little bit more. and it's during the next 2a hours we'll see those changes take place. it's all because we've got cold air at the moment pooling to the north of this weather front, which is set to work its way southwards. to start the day, it's across parts of north and west scotland, and because of the more cloudier outbreaks of rain, notice the warm colours on the temperature chart to start the day. coolest colours in the south, where we've got temperatures in single figures for the morning commute, even a touch of frost in one or two

leading the british by this time is a man who had been bouncing all his life, winston churchill, whoed for years to warn the world about germany. meantime, the situation that faced france was hopeless. two-5ths of the french army was lost. there were fewer than 50 divisions left. running from the northern end of the maginot line to the sea. behind that line, there were no reserves. despairing people of paris sent their children south praying that some miracle would keep them from harm. the hopeless men of the french army without adequate arms or blow. >> the first blow fell on june 5th. the french resistance was determined, but by june 8th, the left flank army had been shattered and a general was ordered to the line -- on june 9th, the german main attack came. within two days, the german armored and motorized divisions brought out into the open terrain. with this break through, the issue of the battle of france was decided and from that time on, there was official talk of anar mist is. now what about the famous maginot line? let's go back and take a look. on june 14th, the germans la

so the answer directly, i am going to quote from winston churchill, "the democratic process is prettyur lives." i think that is a pretty straightforward a nswer your question. now, whether strikes are part of the political democratic process, i believe that they are. and on that note, we have to end. yanis varoufakis, thank you very much for being on hardtalk. thank you. hello, good morning. it's fair to say yesterday across england and wales felt a bit more like summer. in the sunshine in lincolnshire, we had temperatures here as high as 25 celsius. now, today, still going to be dry in most places. there'll still be some sunshine around, but it will feel much, much cooler. we've got high pressure sitting to the west of the uk, the warmth is getting pushed away into the continent, and around the top of the high pressure, we've got these cooler winds coming in behind a band of cloud, which, in the morning, is affecting southern counties of england. it will clear away, you could get one or two light showers coming in on a north—easterly wind into the south—east corner of england, the no

tell me a little bit about your admiration for winston churchill and the key lessons you learn for him today and we can all learn from him two the key thing about churchill was that he was so fantastic and brave. he wasn't a big guy. he was bullied at school and pelted, he was only 5-foot 6 inches tall and he had a 30-inch chest. he was a run t, shrimpy kind of guy. he turned himself by sheer will, into this extraordinary colossus who dominated so much of british politics in the 20th century, and the key point for me is that although he make so many mistakes and got so many things wrong from going back on golden's attitude toward indian independence come he got things catastrophically wrong, but one big thing he got right in ma may 1940, when the uk had to make the decision about whether to fight on or to do a deal with mussolini and with hitler and if churchill hadn't been in that room, no doubt at all in my mind we would have come to terms of some kind and he made all the difference because he basically decided it would be a disaster for his country and the british empire and civiliz

after the outbreak of the war, wrest park in bedfordshire was offered directly to winston churchill asstern front, it was transformed into a much—needed hospital, with an operating theatre and x—ray equipment. despite looking relaxed in many of the photographs, the women worked long, emotionally draining shifts. we hope to find out more about these incredible images. we have had a great group of volunteer research at wrest park, but we have hit a brick wall. we can't find out anything more about these nurses. it is remarkable converting a black—and—white photo into colour. it brings a whole new life, a sense of humanity to these pictures. 1,600 men were treated on the hospital's wards before a fire broke out in september 1916, forcing it to close. the unofficial way it was established and its sudden closure meant no proper records were kept of the 100—plus nurses who had worked here. english heritage hope identifying them will highlight the enormous contribution women made to the war effort. hopefully forgotten no longer. it's been the joint hottest summer on record and, although we've

he told them that there is a speech from winston churchill and he invited them to hear the speeches, imprisoned by his superiors, islanders wrote letters in his support. and he had left one last surprise for his daughter.m support. and he had left one last surprise for his daughter. it is very special. and it is your father's medals. those are his medals. and they were left here. father's medals. those are his medals. and they were left herelj give my thanks to him for his life, because it was, for him, it was a bad light outside, but a good life inside. —— life outside. i bad light outside, but a good life inside. —— life outside. lam proud of what he did. robert hall, bbc news, guernsey. what an amazing story. lovely story. yes, those moments just what an amazing story. lovely story. yes, those momentsjust make what an amazing story. lovely story. yes, those moments just make you remember everything, itjust yes, those moments just make you remember everything, it just brings it all home. the time is almost 7:30am. we will have the headlines for you. stay with us. hello, this is bre

he is speaking to winston churchill. i love the fact.but the kings own diaries have been released after many years. it's a first—hand account. they have just been released, you have a first—hand insight as to how the king initially, because of gallipoli, although history fans will know that churchill's overseeing of that was considered quite the disaster. he was very keen on edward and was concerned. it painted him as a sort of politician, in this area, and the king felt maybe he was not the right man for the job? then with the battle of britain, churchill stepped up battle of britain, churchill stepped up to the plate. they became strong friends. if you are into your second world war history, this is for you. the king invited the wartime premier for lunch every tuesday. a recent prime minister invited a audience with the monarch to lie on the couch with the monarch to lie on the couch with a psychiatrist after a long and busy day. it's from his own handwriting, his own words. it is fantastic. i highly recommend it. and there is a lovely

believe me, or winston churchill for our address, it was bad. he wasn't perfect, franklin roosevelt because if you ask anybody what's the greatest american moment, you will say world war ii. that's absolutely right, but remember the soul, the clan. here we are, projecting power to defeat tyranny around the world and what is the reality home? a segregated america, a segregated military, franklin roosevelt signing executive order 9066 and interning japanese americans. simply because he thoughtthey might be a security threat, no evidence . a couple steps forward, step back. what george elliott called dim lights and tangled circumstance. that our story. pushing on, pushing on last example . is joe mccarthy. i don't know if this will all resonate. i'll wait. so rudy giuliani as roy cohen. it's kind of funny. sometimes you don't even have to work this stuff. so joe mccarthy back then in wisconsin, not a particularly interesting senator is looking for a national issue in 1950. there were communists in the government in the 40s but harry truman got rid

the judgment of history often -- and i think gerald ford used to say it and winston churchill as i think ron was saying earlier when we were backstage, that history -- you can't be judged until 30 or 40 or 50 years later. you know, think of harry truman. harry truman left the presidency in 1952, '53, with a job approval rating of 22%. one of the worst -- the lowest measure at that particular time. he is now considered one of the best five presidents or ten presidents depending on the list you see. so in retrospect, looking at harry truman's presidency, he could have run for re-election in 1952, but chose not to because he was so unpopular. so he wasn't term limited out because it didn't apply to him when they changed the term limit law, but he didn't run because he was so unpopular, but history looks back and sees how did he do, he comes out pretty well. >> did you want to make a point? >> well, you know, ford -- ford, i think, was very unpopular with the press because he pardoned nixon, and there was a lot of criticism of ford. and he was probably our most athletic president, as i've sa

i think i said that often and is part of my gig, that i think win e winston churchill says sundayest success is going from failure to fail outer youth losing enthusiasm, and with failures and failures of ours, failures of others, but then to enthusiasm kept us going and i can say we were so successful. but what i know is that i saw american puerto ricoans. that at times some people were saying that they were not helping, they were on strike, that they were taking advantage of -- i only saw puerto ricoans that only care for each other. i actually saw some of the best of the america i love right there in puerto rico. [applause] other and they've gait mishome but there were republicans and democrats but there was only people. we the people under one flag helping each 20 make things happen. for that i'm very hopeful and that's what i felt. i believe now more in america than ever because i see america is full of wonderful people. that's how i felt. hopeful. >> over here. >> mr. andres, just like to thank you for being here tonight and thank you for everything you have done. my question is

a co nvalescence directly to winston churchill as a convalescence home.ern front, it was transformed into a much—needed hospital, with an operating theatre and x—ray equipment. despite looking relaxed in many of the photographs, the women worked long, emotionally draining shifts. we hope to find out more about these incredible images. we have had a great group of volu nteers we have had a great group of volunteers at wrest park but we had hit a brick wall. we can't find out anything more about these nurses. it is remarkable converting a black—and—white photo into colour. it brings a whole new life, a sense of humanity to these pictures. 1600 men were treated on the hospital's awards before a fire broke out in september 1916, forcing it to close. the unofficial way it was established and its sudden closure meant no proper records were kept of the 100 plus nurses who had worked here. english heritage hope identifying them will highlight the enormous contribution women made to the war effort. so get in touch with english heritage if you recognise any of thos
