I made my first mistake he said france is back france is back its a call for europe. Because we would never have any friends subsist without a european success you call them the opposite we believe isolation will get us nowhere we believe we have to cooperate and that protectionism is not the right answer if lead has not been made to globalization in general is going through a major crisis that on which we should look for Multilateral Solutions and not unilateral ones that. Our words can shift and to do we need definitely less ons and more brains than it to get the people in the style im all here its about creating a true social market economy as we would say in germany then worldwide cooperation with some of it captain if i had it in front of the United States is now concentrating more on itself this must lead us to the conclusion that we need to take on more responsibility obviously and fourth and think you didnt invite. Anybody being skeptical with Global Warming this year. Also coming up rethinking how the media cover us president dog will trot will start in the garden of eden. The pope is not saying that all journalists are snakes but he certainly acknowledging that they can be. Oh we begin the day with the future of the world and how europe would like it to be today the president of france and the chancellor of germany delivered speeches in davos switzerland at the World Economic forum in case you were wondering how much interest there was in hearing the messages of mccrone in america it was standing room only when both leaders spoke now these were not feel good speeches or do good lectures instead we heard from both leaders that globalization is in a crisis and that the responses that we are seeing in the west are disturbing the solutions they say more multilateralism more cooperation were education and a unanimous rejection of being first at the expense of the rest of the world and some here america little bit of irony here america a conservative macron a former investment banker both wanting to fortify the social market economies and welfare states that Northern Europe is known for what in the world would donald trump say to that on friday well talk about that in just a moment our first report tonight takes us to davos. The german chancellors speech marks her return to the world stage after months of political limbo at home in germany her address focused on europe and its future one of her key messages the worlds problems will not be solved by only salacious and protectionism instead she said nations must Work Together to face global challenges both economic and political. Obviously in the. We know that there are international egotism we see nationalism on the rise and many states theres a polarizing atmosphere perhaps in many places people worry whether multilateralism can really solve peoples problems. Ellis fear of them is. More may also stress that europe must overcome challenges to better implement Digital Technologies risk being left behind she said germany lags behind some less developed nations despite its reputation for technical innovation. The size that means a task for the next four years will be to bring Digital Technology into our Education System yes the government has to be organized digitally. And a better environment for startups has to be created so that we can make further progress that we can remain a cradle of innovation the chancellor then turned her attention to defense she said europe should be more responsive to the problems of its immediate neighbors she called on European Countries to cooperate more closely forging Common Security and foreign policies. This. Even if you look at europes immediate neighborhood how many global conflicts are playing out on our doorstep we experienced this in twenty fifteen when globalization came to europe in the form of people not refugees home and when we hadnt done enough to counter the civil war in syria when we hadnt done enough to deal with socalled Islamic State in iraq. The chancellor did not openly criticize us president dont know trump he will speak at the conference on friday but has strong warning against protectionism seem tailor made for washingtons most recent Global Policy as. My colleague in the humphrey is covering the Foreign Forces in davos she joins me now good evening to you have with us so today was europes day at the World Economic forum was the message that we heard was that a no to trunk no to isolationism. It most certainly was a no two trumpets and a no to isolationism brant the funny thing is there over the past couple of days weve heard a variety of speeches which is saying no to protectionist sentiments no to populism no one has really dead though to call out the us president by name yet to actually say were watching we dont like what youre doing the nearest anyone has got to it today perhaps was french president Emmanuel Mccomb when he took to the stage here at the World Economic forum and he started with a joke in his two true kind of charismatic style bar it perhaps from barack obama when he said when you took all the snow here its hard to believe that Global Warming exists lucky you havent invited anyone here who doubts that Global Warming exists there was a burst of applause in the Congress Hall after that but it was getting a more serious issue and of course his speech then did take a more serious tone and he called for the rebirth of multilateralism for a stronger europe picking up from where german chancellor Angela Merkel left off the soft a new in their speeches with different angle americal with a very classic speech where she started speaking about the end of the First World War saying have we not learned the lessons of history its up to this generation to prove that we have michael didnt take that tone it was a more energetic fresh passionate speech saying now is the time france is back. Yet lets listen just to a little clip here of what mr america said today if some people are ready to be more ambitious to go further in terms of integration and ambition of what makes you sovereign as a power in this Global Environment to defend your values and your interests lets move. Those with which dont want to move forward should not block the most and be sure people in the room now what is interesting besides the content here is the fact that weve got a french president mr marquand delivering part of a speech in english not french what in the world should we make of that helen and i think this just says a lot about french president among us Michael Michael and approach to well his campaign and now his presidency he has always been an internationalist hes got that entrepreneurial spirit which hints at america despite the fact that he wouldnt be in favor of those America First policies he did then transition into french as well what was interesting about the way the emmanuelle spoke is it was so unlike other leaders he didnt really seem to have a script or an autocue from france a strong france he says means a strong europe hawking back to that symbiotic idea at the same time hes got a series of tough reforms to push through hes well aware of that and he needs a strong euro zone to make sure that those french reforms are success and let me ask you if you saw an irony here that weve got he was a conservative weve got to muddle mccraw who comes into the World Politics as an investment banker youve got both of these leaders pushing the social welfare state the social market economies that Northern Europe is known for isnt it ironic. I suppose there is a little bit of an irony here it wasnt necessarily felt in davos because the french president to money when michael was welcomed to the stage as somebody who survived france according to klaus schwab in the past eight months heavy praise there from. Externally of course the risk criticism that some of his policies are near liberal policies and for american as well but they already champion this new idea that businesses must work with communities because you know this is really the increase in the wealth gap has only led to a rise in populism and a big point today made by the german chancellor Angela Merkel actually was the first talk that she was asked about after her speech was big data and digitalization of the economy that was something that seemed very important to her today. They absolutely did and its been a big theme here at the World Economic forum yesterday indian Prime MinisterNarendra Modi also spoke about this he says whoever owns the big data essentially has the power and i want to talk a little bit more about that Industrial RevolutionArtificial Intelligence now with somebody who knows a lot about it im joined by endorse hes the c. E. O. Of an ai and Big Data SoftwareCompany Called televisions thank you very much for joining us perhaps you could tell us a little bit about what your company does yeah thank you very much for the invitation yeah were doing Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence and were one of the Technology Peer pioneers youre forms of polygamy for im one of the few i would say in germany because not only these companies are in Silicon Valley and many areas because its like banks insurance as an optimizer Digital SalesMarketing Automation and the area where all the google is playing a role well right now a lot of these topics are very much championed here at the World Economic forum despite the fact that the forms also pointed out to a awe ai can pose risks to jobs and its easy for people at the World Economic forum to champion this when its their job to think theyre not perhaps at risk of night messing aria when it comes to ai the nightmare scenario we have all seen in terminator so i think the scenario is its you radically possible but as we all sing here the whole day hopefully well find some regulations and six talk such as what the regulations need to be first we have to Start Building whatever think tanks and what were already doing talking about all these topics because. I was one guy saying every need Something Like in medicine to close that the people who work on ai releasing all your body monitors disadvantages and i think that the first topic its clear its all the normal we goals. Ok what are we doing if the car drives forward and somebody crossing the street and. The people in the car and here you have the moral questions and just totally key of everybody right on a more basic level there you know what scares me who owns the data and then what do they do with it i mean how do you respond to that yeah ok were in europe or even germany so did a regulation and privacy is a big topic but we all gave our data already a way to facebook to google to. Whatever of because of the one of the because of the companies they have all of our data and even each app were installing they all have data from us and theyre owning and today i think that an app has some data if you is not a problem but if its about fake news and influence on information about what you believe we have really a critical phase already it was a ton of effects call it in us all right one last quick question to you natural stupidity ought to fission intelligence which will kill us first. I would say additional intelligence but after trump got elected so no maybe Somebody Just pressing the button between north korea and us you said it i didnt make a i wasnt off c. E. O. Of the company at televisions thank you very much for joining us here on the day brant. Thats right hell enough and a little commonsense wouldnt wouldnt hurt anyone i think before we let you go how can our viewers how can they keep track weve still got two very important days of talks there in davos something they keep track of whats going on absolutely plenty more topics and speeches and appearances of course you want to go to d. W. Dot com our web site do you follow us on twitter as well at d w underscore business which we seeing at those speeches lots of colorful shots from here in davos as well so not to be missed thats true definitely a must see must read this week there in davos on the story for us tonight and all week over the as always thank you very much. Well when donald trump speaks in davos on friday it would not be out of character for him to simply label this weeks criticism of protectionism as fake news well today another leader with an even higher power put the topic of fake news on the agenda to mark world Communication Day pope francis launched a stinging critique of unethical journalism denouncing it as evil and satanic in a written message with the title the truth will set you free the pontiff compared fake news to the biblical surfeit fooling eve in the garden of eden he said that journalists shouldnt use snake tactics for political gain. Fake news equated with the original sin that will have a lot of copy editors sweating tonight the term fake news it became part of everyones vernacular indulge trump to get running for the office of u. S. President of covering his campaign and the first year of his presidency has been well its been a challenge my next guest tonight says that the media have some serious homework to do after this first year and that its time to rethink how we cover trump im joined tonight by from new york by pope the editor in chief of the columbia journalism review mr pope its good to have you all the day i want to start if i may by getting your reaction to the pope comparing fake news to the serpent in the garden to be i assume that im here because im the only hope that you can get to come on the show the timeouts. I think its well i think its. Sort of comical that the pope is weighing in on this you know hes right distance is insidious and interest and weve seen as of the last year theres no one comment on twitter and maybe should stay in his lane and let us have our own when he. Does want to get in and say ok were giving it say i want to give you our other pope tonight your say in your commentary this week you write that the media had the best intentions a year ago when Trump Took Office but then well we dropped the ball i mean youre right we want to show our viewers just a section here of what you wrote you wrote the idea then was that it was time to take the story back to not let trump and his acolytes control the conversation we unfortunately have failed to hold up our end of the bargain i suspect that one factor behind the dropoff in quality is burnout but the sad fact one year into this presidency is that the current approach to covering this white house is no longer working burnout it feels as if it feels as if you go ahead i mean to ask you about the notion of burnout i mean it feels as if no president before trump has received as much Media Attention is this selfinflicted burnout. Yeah i mean when i talk about burnout im talking about burnout both among journalists which is something we care about and journalists care about not sure the broader public cares that much but i do think theres a significant burnout among readers and among viewers. And i think one of the reason that you made the point that this president has received more coverage and and so much of the coverage that recede is generated by him. Its coverage of things that he wants to get attention to in this president has a unusual ability to sort of sense when that conversation is moving away from him and to grab it back he does that as we all know through twitter he does it through very provocative comments and i think journalists have been too willing to swear go down those paths which fit lets face it are quite repetitive i mean the president will say c. N. N. Is great news and hell say it ten times or hell say it twenty times you know thirty times my argument has been why why is news the thirty first time that he says that i think so i just think that theres been a failure of i mean i say in a piece one of the things i think hes done is hes become our own assignment editor were letting him tell us where we should be spending our time and i think thats exactly the offices should be i know that you wrote i think it was last year you wrote an article about the media about obsessing over trumps tweets but if you compare trot the past president s and i was just looking at the numbers here trump does not talk to the media Clinton Bush Jr president obama they all held a minimum of seven press conferences in their respective first year in office trump held just one so at the end of the day all we have from him are his tweets. I mean its not quite right that he does he basically afraid of the press in general but there are at least in this country there are sort of friendly outlets to him primarily on the right primarily fox news and affiliated and hes where he spent a lot of time with them so i mean theres actually a kind of weird dichotomy going on where if you talk to reporters who covered obama even though obama had a lot of press conferences he ran a very very tight ship in the sense that nobody on his staff top to the media it was very tightly control the opposite is true trump everybody talks its a leak is an illustration that these reporters university a long time so you know its a bit of a mixed bag i mean the truth is that there are a lot of there is a lot of information about this administration is getting out its just not in the formal press conferences and my argument is that we should continue down that path almost certain to ignore the were all settings and formal statements from him and focus on other stuff that we think is important i want to join your attention to the russia investigation in special counsel Robert Mohler trump has reportedly called the or hes repeatedly called the investigation which hot yesterday a White House Reporter asked White House Press secretary Sarah Huckabee sanders if the president says that this is all bogus why doesnt he just fire mr moeller and get this over with and here is her response they want to see this come to a complete and full conclusion i think we all know what everybody in this room would do if the president did that and i dont think thats helpful to the process. I heard that and i thought well so the white house says that the president is making crucial decisions based on what he expects the behavior of journalists to be so how in the world we supposed to report that. Yeah first dont. Nobody believes that if the president thinks that the heat is too intense at some point nobody believes that he wont actually get rid of the special prosecutor so lets lets set that aside. He and while they say they may want to see the process come to fruition the truth is that the president and his advisors have spent the last basically the entirety of his term in office talking down mauler and his team trying to discredit the f. B. I. Trying to a salish this narrative that that its a politicized investigation and theyre laying the groundwork and whether he fires are not are clearly laying the groundwork to try to discredit whatever dollars findings are and let me ask you before we run out of time when you when you talk about the the over reporting of the drug presidency or the obsession i mean can you say that there is more of this sin you know if you want to quote the other pope in Television News compared to print journalists are we in t. V. Are we actually hammering the tweets much more and too much compared to the way newspaper and online are doing. You know its so hard to type moves aggregate because different t. V. Networks are better than different news producer papers are better i think in general im afraid that youre right i think t. V. Does tend over over cover them i mean i dont know what its like. In germany or in europe but in the u. S. On almost every time trump tweets because theres a cairo on and theres a discussion around this. And it also is the case online and i think the print. Papers which are obviously but the longer form newspapers have gotten a bit better about trying to get into a quite a ride out of there in chief of the columbia journalism review joining us tonight from new york thank you very much thanks for having me. Turkeys incursion into Northern Syria is in danger of escalating thats has rockets fired from within syria away and in turkey killing two people and wounding several others turkeys president has also vowed to expand his armys offensive words where they risk approaching u.
