How not to handle the aftermath of a not so Natural Disaster didnt live at each 90 to Rupert Murdoch finally stepped back and puts his eldest son in charge of his media, m gets this stuff. Tv shows are made. And the journalist on a mission to preserve nigerian history as it was 1st reported in print. The hello, im richard gets burton. Youre at the listening post where we dont cover the news. We cover the way the news is covered. Libyans are still counting their debt after the colossal flood hit the eastern city of death, now wiping out whole neighborhoods entire families. Within minutes, once reporters descended upon the scene and libyans learned about some of the bad Decision Making that contributed to the disaster. Heartbreak gave way to anger. Libya has been a politically divided country ever since. 20143 years after the arabs spring brought down new market. Duffy, the military figures who now ruled the east have been spooked by the journalistic scrutiny. Theyve ordered some reporters to leave the city. Theyve arrested others. In the aftermath of a Natural Disaster, officials can usually expect a degree of goodwill from citizens and reporters. A like, however, some clumsy attempts to spin the narrative and stop journalists from doing their jobs. Ive only highlighted the incompetence and legitimacy at the top, united and politically fractured citizenry more and more of which is now opposed to those top. To leave the city of doing now, were down to the district. Thanks. A lot of what weve seen this week in the is a very systematic attempt to shut down the coverage on the prices. Medina was flat. The tools are using all the tools they know. And so its shut down, locked down, and absolutely kill the story. Impairment on medina and then the superintendent had the the come in that and the dictates are 1. 00 oh 1. 00. Right. You dont know how to spend this, you just kill the stories. And so the International Journalist will be spared because theyll just be removed from the country. Local journalists, local activists will not back in and not shall use the story in eastern lives after trying unsuccessfully to spin the narrative and deflect questions on negligence. Lack of foresight and infrastructural failings, but appear to have worsened the flooding and costs of life. The authorities have been ordering certain journalists to leave them, throw in a communications shut down through an internet blackouts, and it adds up to a sustain to, to contain the store. Theyve actually shut down the incidents from east and theyd be claiming through that Media Outlets that this was a 7th cable in the city. And then its another part of an action unnatural men made. Theres also that happened last week when the reality is the sources of tripoli from the libyan Telecommunications Network could have said that this was an order to shut down by the authorities of cos, emotions, a 100 people have lost 171820 or more members of their family, then ill begin to us those critical questions. Why did the dams must, why would they not to maintained who is responsible who we have the other issues of course, about the older duplicates. So theyre asking for culpability. Theyre asking for accountability, and this has become political now. The authorities in control of the depth and their military, the Libyan National farm work l. N. A. Did not correct down on journalists or assignments, social media right away. First, they tried to influence the coverage in the divine dismissive way with multiple officials depicting the floods. Thats gone. But the lower the shelves are not going to be able to nick. I know if i had an account that has to be reunited, you know, get isnt. So because you never, if you to the l. N a is leaving for leaf off. Went on a carefully managed photo off tour of the tough guy has put his son saddam in charge of the disaster response, which is fitting. Since the suns encounter with a british journalist would prove disastrous in itself. An exercise in the section right down to the language. They were speaking for the prevention, but it gets done. This is the person whos brought up in the united states. Well, we, as you mean that is no one is in english. He chose to hide behind an interpreter, refused to talk in english, looks very uncomfortable when he was finally off some deep and meaningful questions, the side tracked them and drove off. This is a regime that is not used to independent investigative agenda. Is that interaction with Alex Crawford is the perfect depiction of the delusion of impunity. He genuinely believed he could sit there with a journalist of that caliber and be able to spend everything is fine. Line hasnt been a big enough international response. So youve just everythings fine. So now he tells us, and i think what weve seen since isnt disconnected in 24 hours of that becoming that hes a man worldwide. Weve seen the expulsion of journalist and the shut down. Its to. Busy of funding because the ego of a man can impact on the outcome for a nation. Reporters without foreigners, which ranks libya at 149 for 180 countries on its press Freedom Index describes it as an informational black hole. The 5th, 20143 years after the fall and execution of Little Market golfing libby green and varying states of civil park, mainly between forces, loyalty to a tripoli based government in the west. And d o n a. In the e 2 and a half years ago with the u. Ns help a ceasefire was a greek elections were promised, but keep getting to like scores of journalists have flags. And many of those who may have been forced or have chosen to take sides. The atlantic and the break away parliament to which it is allies has never had this kind of story to contend with before. This kind of screws. And it show there is an attempt to control the muscle and gag local voices. Last allowing what supposed to be in kinder gentler than that Media Outlets while maintain libyans, as most sides of muscle, television, and new outlets. And then how the television, all of which are considered to be propaganda. Masterpieces for the message is to downplay what is really happening to move. I shouldve been stuck on living in another a, within my school, but ive had, youd also be able to we often hear them talking about the unification of libyans with piano and sad music to show the human suffering behind all of this the up until now theyve operated with such impunity, they didnt even have to counter a narrative. They could do what they wanted to do and get away with it. And were looking for Little Victories and this, this is a victory because when you feel that you can get away with something, youre going to talk about the fact that youre trying to guidance the media is an indication that things have changed. Well, this is, i dont think weve really felt this moment have changed in libya to this degree, since 2011 where people arent buying this anymore. Theres a history in libya. You know, weve come up to 40 odd years of the good, the good that the rule. There is not the culture of Free Independent media and plus 2011. And that is still very much the case then that soft on the half the security for us is completely different to the Libyan Government and tripoli, even west and libyans, to have permission to go in and to national media, to get clearance to go in. So you have the double whammy of a split political regime and reporting on a disaster that is now city that those journal is permitted to remain in depth. I know that they are being watched closely by our regime, whose media strategy seems to change by the day. After a week of poor messaging and expelling report, press briefings are now provided daily fronted by a journalist from one of those pro government track. Hes sending you emails with if he didnt ask for the political figures who have been calling for unity in the face of this disaster that may come back to haunt there are some, some libyans coming together in opposition on what needs to change. You know, way they cannot bode well for their funnel like we can feel a new pulse that is without the right thing. And that reason can be felt from that in the for the white, the trip land because he is very reminiscent of the ad spring which started in 2011 from the east. The video for the prism of that is also being felt from the trembling authorities and use the media through the clamoring to shut down communication. And then the cool for libyans themselves to not use this time to be critical. But to use this time is a moment of reflection. The simple message really is, i think, be quiet and forget about the individuals that are responsible for this. And this is particularly dangerous interface like libya, because everything is politicized in the country, including the media, libyan credible journalist are being disappeared, are being detained, and are being suppressing its International Jealous that when i have to tell the story, and when they leave, it will be done lists from within libya that identifies the penalty the moving to the us now and a real life story of succession. Rupert murdoch is handing over the reins of his mamma, news, and part. And joanna host is here with the details. Thats right, richard. This pauls thursday folks, corporation in news Corp Announced that Rupert Murdoch after 7 decades in the Media Business is retiring. And his eldest son, laughlin, will be the new man in charge since inheriting his fathers newspaper business in his native australia. On the 1950s murdock senior built immediate control mart, consisting of hundreds of news outlets in dozens of countries, including fox news and the wall street journal in the us. Herbert murdock is 92 so media, what years knew that this was coming and he had already tapped laughlin as a successor, making him the ceo of folks. But the timing is interesting, folks knew it was the most watch cable news channel in the us has been the subject of a number of those who to those are the stations coverage of the 2020 president ial election and amplification of baseless conspiracy. Theories about the election being stolen from donald trump. They ring the election in front of all of us and nobody did anything about the 1st of those legal cases, ruled by voting, machine, manufacturer, dominion. So folks settle out of court for almost 800000000. 00 that was agreed after internal communication among the folks employees revealed that senior execs and on our host, consider the stolen election claims were bogus. But fair at the effects such and use would have on the networks ratings. And theres another little suit coming launched by smart magic, another voting machine company, claiming folks as the fame does reputation. The asked their 2700000000. 00. Herbert murdock says he will remain as chairman of maritza, is at folks a news corp hope at laughlin needs much guidance. His politics are much more closely aligned to his fathers. Then his more centrist siblings, prudence james and elizabeth. So its unlikely that much will change, at least for now, what sort of senior does eventually donnie though and the Family Business is left in the hands of for kids with ideological differences, each with one vote on the companys future. The direction of the murder empire can become a lot more succession esque next. There was an interesting exercise underway in nigeria. Its about newspaper reporting and it goes back many decades. It examines journalism as the 1st rough draft of history, the newspapers, the deliver to news big and small back in the day, provide glimpses into our past important stories that can disappear if not properly preserved. Archived. That is what this nigerian project is all about. Digitizing 50 years of newspaper front page is making them accessible to anyone online and safe starting journalism against being forgotten. And this isnt the work of some aging historian, looking to make the pastor relevant. The journalist leading this project isnt millennial part of a generation of nigerians digging into their countrys history and politics. But listening posts mean actually robbie, now with the story of nigeria passed in print and the efforts to save it from being forever let me see positive, nice effect. See ripples the true history because did always show up if we need to call it the one denot magnificence 2 is thats, thats me. Call me time. What is i guess the collect everything in the cup to the picture of your time. What do you know . Everything will be time in a nation. What is the odds with a to z will be to are, is on the headlines functional columns, the talk to one, the one about newspapers. And his love for them is tied to this. According to him, nothing compares to the range, the way they report stories big and small, and national and local. The eclectic mix from popular recipes and teen or tv should use to momentous development in the nations history. For the long it was during his time as a journalist when it struck him just how much nigerians were missing out on because there was no accessories digitize depository of 19 in newspapers from decades past time. And again, he found himself on the deadline, the searching the story and struggling to find his strong, make nigerian use report. But how does that look good in New York Times of find new stuff about an engine like history down finding it here. And so the requested us to give like, what does it look like if we actually had a lot older spaces in new york . I suspect it was like of course, but it was like what does it look like for us to even like talk no space much where its begun. Since 2020 laval and a group of others have poured data efforts into building the night g didnt new speed, but archives of the dreams. It has involved fundraising campaigns, calling newspaper offices to talk about digitizing the stacks of papers. They have dealing with coffee, i cannot find an industrial grade scanner. Its not that nigeria does not have any official loc guides between whats already in national and state archives in the country, and the historic documentation in museums and lived to these across britain, which colonized nigeria for a 100 years since the 80 and sixtys. Historical records are available. Whats missing though, is a comprehensive, navigable newspaper guys. We must emphasize well because you have some idea. While Government Official documents, thats ended unit 19 fifties. Right of this, this with bus. I know find the shop. How are you find them . They pull up very quickly because of the nature of the past use at that time. If i do, i know to be in it as well. So this, i swear to story some project. Its a nation. I is project. Okay. But it gives a chance to get that wrecked context. What does it look like to get a sense of what people with think in, in the seventys or the eights is something that happens writes with histories that you remember the big stories. You remember the seeing the blue of the wall . Its decimal flores from the 60 seventys eightys. That was, you know, a photo body every day. A story is what about the library . And that was, i mean, in dollars all euros because never one. There is 1. 00. What about people looking for jobs in the 60s to seventies these every day stories . Right. Im missing because i came in doesnt exist. The modern history of 19 newspapers is closely tied to the countries sent to the under christine mission. To these duties, officials 19 inactive his own caught involved in publishing peoples like the west african pilot legal speak, a record of the daily times with on active way before independence in the 1960 often asking people like mine got the guardian on punch, wind speed reporting on the seminal movements that often gets all the attention to china is and beyond the front page tests, some of the most compelling stories. So those very popular seventies was executions. Rates do, exclusively to worked in is that you think its the want you to think of a way that you kind of get to comply. You think your employees sometimes sweet . Oh, what was the one you much all events the beach. I see this how your lives and up because hes a, by the view, we saw such a be events in vegas to, excuse me, but by beach. This is, im about quite prolific utilities, according to dr. Towards the excuse that any walk the i think the monday on a deadline goes um would you be line to do both through the deal because what did see the doctor . Oh um. The demo was the one where he was hit down. So you, because it was like crazy generational nissan and put down point of note who uh, give us an idea. It is good loving. All ive seen is, begins corruption, political studio. But its good. I study to double all ive seen and yeah, like what megs of who was in the fiftys. Thats the british web, back into the h u b issue that the british, wildly that element of the 1950s do hope that this, this revised cultural. I mean, when young people read those, they will be as tarnished. Remember, this is for but will capture and momentum which again as well for reading as subjects. But in the fiftys they became citizens of the was going to been no most prides generation of course, is also going to bring and thats instead of the country, rice and the progressions very rapidly see deal with see the picture with option it has 19 his life post independence has been turbulent periods of civilian governance have been punctuated with military cause and dictatorships. It was only in 1999. The last military step down. The have the moments of political reckoning since then. Most recently in 2020 with whites. Good. Im going to jump and Police Brutality united young nigerians behind a common cause size was an authority, is police squad, responsible for the extreme violence, including the torture and executions. The protest send a clear sequence of green number of political with an active young nigerians. Theres a come on saying, well people go maybe young people or 90. I just dont like to read. But a number as soon as people are, invest that a reason, as long as your story is interested in. Right. And says, was it 20 points was a very visible turning point. And things then, did i, even with the work that we would do, and were seeing growth in the participation of young people on your interest in engaging with the stories. I think once you can show people how if then affect them, thats how you get the interest. Right. And so i guess thats what i kind of in helps with look on the new stupid archive has been underway for 3 years now. Getting it online and weve been clicking distance for nigerians is given that when the archive does go live, it will just be the end of the beginning. There are many decades of newsprint get to be sourced, digitized and catalog new with a stories and additive to be uncovered. And i went to find patients contracted shows perfect in all of those. It was with us. How want to be sure generates different perspectives. Regional perspective, or could you just but spec teams broke up perspectives, at least the business of the story on 45 side on this perspective. So theres just no doubt about that is a project of, of, you know, most tremendous significance, i think will be what were doing uh, wedding in a public where they probably can see that its, you know, but what we can see is, is that the have on unlimited utilities, all kinds of people, others make all kinds of sense. We cannot even begin to qualify. To put this all in fox of do a good day. And finally, some of the news anchors went on the war pack this past week. Thats par for the course. The country has almost 424 hour news channels, the vast majority of which support Prime Minister and around remotest party, the b j. P. If that means backing modis in due to the nationalist agenda, dealing and hate speech and endangering muslims and other minorities, soviet, now politicians from an alliance of more than 2000 Opposition Party say theyre done with that. Theyve named 14 host choose programs. They will now board if only indian news consumers will do the same. As for the host involved, this board cartridges provides them with more contact, another wedge to drive between audiences that need to be in fair rather than insight. Well see you next time. Youre close to them today as they bring out this last little boy was gone. People up this country all with us with me. Probably get snow, which i just got in the front of the big money. Enjoy the image in the low a theme for the got as we get somebody loads it in the on the in the and then going to get so i updated the they the little mississippi. So id have to connect downloads. But the fact of the matter is i, we not democrat big when we, i bought them space, which they dont want to big ben. My question is, i use good up my question. That is why you dont want to be on the list on the line. You wanted the modern high ground that we boy, for these journalist was saying to you, why core to back the dont. Because i can use its a basic fundamental human rights that everyone has the right to seek safety and protection. Hard hitting in to be supposed to tell them on failed pockets. Tons, hope, and expectations facing realities has good education in your view, become elitist of goods. Universities only accessible to the people who can afford them via the story.
