    1 March 2011 par (Open-Publishing)

    In what may seem like a case of David and Goliath, 60 broadcast technicians and engineers at WKYC-TV Channel 3 are standing up to the Gannett Corporation’s nationwide union-busting rampage.
    Facing a savage attack on their union, the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians (NABET) Local 42, the workers got badly needed support from their brothers and sisters at other stations Wednesday, Feb. 23, in an 11-hour silent picket line in front of Channel 3 studios.

  • TV news reader quits in protest at Berlusconi
    3 June 2010 par (Open-Publishing)

    One of Italy’s top news readers has dramatically quit her job on state-funded television after claiming its coverage was biased in favour of the media mogul and premier, Silvio Berlusconi.
    Maria Luisa Busi, who presented the flagship evening TG1 news show on the Rai 1 channel, reportedly told bosses what she thought of the programme’s editorial line in a frank letter pinned to a notice board.
    Her abrupt departure at the weekend follows a series of clashes with TG1 editor Augusto (…)

    19 April 2010 par (Open-Publishing)

    The taxpayer-funded Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), the Australian equivalent of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), has a TV program called Q&A (touted as "adventures in in democracy": ) in which the studio audience or viewers submit questions to a mostly right wing panel of half a dozen MPs, commentators or other public figures.
    In my view, the Australian ABC in general (and like the BBC and other Mainstream Media organizations in the other "2-party" Western (…)

    By David Glenn Cox
    I spent the New Year’s weekend apartment sitting. Ahh, hot showers and central heat. All the comforts of home, except for a computer. Well, it is only forty-eight hours; I can take it. The two dogs in the apartment, a Chihuahua and a Chihuahua mix, viewed me with great suspicion. They are one-person dogs and I wasn’t him, so they stayed in the bedroom and I in the living room.
    My one source of entertainment was a television with plenty of college football. I like (…)

    By David Glenn Cox
    The healthcare debate just keeps spinning out of control, death panels and let’s kill off granny movements bumbling, stumbling with overweight, jackboot wannbes. Watch them pretending outrage while keeping one eye on the director.
    I was watching the video of the St. Louis town hall scuffle and one man seems to always be on the edge of the camera shot. When he looks at the camera the camera moves forward almost like he was giving instructions. But when you hire amateurs (…)

    Those aware of the tragic colonial history of India and other former Western colonies will quickly discover that Western historians in the English-speaking world simply IGNORE Western atrocities perpetrated against their non-European subjects i.e. they lie by omission.

    They are not telling us what digital signals are really being used for... just so you know:
    "Military sensing and communication systems operate in challenging electromagnetic environments where very high linear dynamic range is required to detect small target signals obscured by a strong background of interference, jammers, and clutter.

    Global Research, January 22, 2009
    Germany’s most prominent political debate TV program “Anne Will” had announced to run a show on Gaza on 11 January, but in what many observers believe to be an unprecedented step canceled the topic only three days earlier. The talk show is broadcast every Sunday night by the country’s foremost public-service broadcaster ARD while attracting on average 3.6 million viewers. The “Anne (…)
