The headlines of the day by The Indian Express

What happens when a new technology transforms how we communicate ideas and information? Best-selling science fiction writer Naomi Alderman joins Amol to explain why she thinks the digital age has pushed us into a “third information crisis”, which is as profound as the invention of writing or the printing press. Drawing on those past revolutions, Naomi offers some solutions to help us navigate the era we're living through. She suggests new laws to regulate the online world and potentially even a “checked internet” like Wikipedia, which is home to verified facts rather than misinformation. But at the heart of her argument is the need to prioritise real world, human connection and resist the urge to move everything online. Naomi also tells Amol how therapy has helped her and why she's written her first non-fiction book after a series of successful novels. (00:03:23) What is the third information crisis?

The Stringer Documentary & the Napalm Girl Mystery – A Deep Dive into Photojournalism Controversy Published on 10 Frames Per Second Blog – Your go‑to source for photojournalism insight Table of Contents What Is The Stringer? Meet the Key Players – Gary Knight & Bao Nguyen Why the Napalm Girl Photo Matters Forensic Evidence: The Road‑Testing of the Iconic Shot Industry Reaction – Backlash, Bans, and the “Wagon‑Circling” Culture The Hidden History of Vietnamese & Local Freelance Photographers How to Watch The Stringer and Join the Conversation Takeaway: What This Means for Photojournalism Today 1. What Is The Stringer? The Stringer is a newly released documentary (Netflix, 2024) that investigates the authorship of the world‑famous “Napalm Girl” photograph taken in Vietnam, 1972. Core premise: The film follows journalist Gary Knight and director Bao Nguyen as they trace a decades‑old secret held by a Vietnamese stringer‑photographer, Nguyễn Thành Nghệ (Wintan Nei). Format: A blend of on‑the‑ground interviews, archival footage, and forensic road‑testing that reconstructs the exact location, timing, and line‑of‑sight of the iconic image. Why it matters: The image is one of the most published photographs in history and is universally credited to Associated Press staff photographer Nick Ut. The documentary questions that credit, shaking a cornerstone of photojournalistic mythology. 2. Meet the Key Players – Gary Knight & Bao Nguyen Person Role Why They're Important Gary Knight Founder of the VII Foundation, mentor, and documentary “connective tissue.” Provides insider knowledge of the photojournalism world, contacts, and credibility that anchors the investigation. Bao Nguyen Director of The Stringer Chose to frame the story as a journey, not just a series of talking‑heads, and insisted on a central narrator (Gary) to guide viewers. Carl Robinson Former AP Vietnamese‑language photo editor (local hire). His 2022 email sparked the whole investigation; his memories and documents are a primary source. Horst Fass Senior AP photographer in Vietnam (the “gatekeeper” of the image). His decision to run the picture on the wire is central to the credit controversy. Nguyễn Thành Nghệ (Wintan Nei) Vietnamese stringer who claimed to have taken the shot. The film's “secret” – his testimony and forensic evidence challenge the accepted narrative. Nick Ut AP staff photographer historically credited for the photo. The focal point of the debate; his name appears on every caption of the image. 3. Why the Napalm Girl Photo Matters Iconic status: Frequently cited in textbooks, museums, and peace‑activist campaigns. Cultural impact: Symbolizes the horrors of the Vietnam War and the power of visual storytelling. Professional legacy: The credit has shaped career trajectories, awards (Pulitzer, etc.), and AP's brand. If the credit shifts, we must reconsider how many other war‑zone images were attributed, potentially rewriting a large part of photojournalism history. 4. Forensic Evidence: The Road‑Testing of the Iconic Shot The documentary's most compelling section is the road‑forensics – a scientific recreation of the moment the photo was taken. Methodology: Researchers drove the exact route described by Wintan Nei, measuring distances, angles, and terrain features. Key Findings: Line‑of‑sight analysis shows the photographer would have been ~150 meters from the burning road—far beyond the reach of a 35 mm lens used by Ut. Shadow & lighting study matches the sun angle on July 29, 1972, which aligns with Wintan Nei's timeline, not Ut's. Camera metadata (Pentax vs. Nikon) – expert testimony confirms Ut's camera was not a Pentax, the model allegedly used by Wintan Nei. Independent verification: World Press Photo hired a former Bellingcat investigator, and INDEX a Paris-based research group. French photographer Tristan da Cunha corroborated the forensic report.  Cunha also worked with AD Coleman on his Robert Capa investigation (Ep. 35) These data points form the strongest case in the film that Nick Ut did not take the photograph. 5. Industry Reaction – Backlash, Bans, and the “Wagon‑Circling” Culture Immediate pushback: Numerous journalists launched letter‑writing campaigns to film festivals and employers, asking for the documentary to be removed. Attempted bans: Some media outlets threatened to fire staff who publicly supported the film. Defensive stance: Many veteran photographers argued that the film attacks “iconic” heroes and undermines the profession's reputation. Key quote from Gary Knight: “Journalists don't ban books or films they haven't read. Our job is to investigate, not to protect mythologies.” The controversy illustrates the “wagon‑circling” phenomenon—protecting revered figures at the expense of truth. 6. The Hidden History of Vietnamese & Local Freelance Photographers The documentary spotlights a systemic issue: local photographers' contributions have been consistently erased. No Vietnamese names appear in a May 1975 Time editorial thank‑you list, despite hundreds of local staff. Many local photographers sold film to AP, NBC, or CBS, but credits always went to Western staff. Examples of overlooked talent: Dang Van Phuoc – AP's most prolific photographer during the war (lost an eye in the field) *needs his own wikipedia entry. Catherine Leroy, Francoise Demulder, Kate Webb – Women who covered Vietnam but remain under‑recognized. Result: A distorted, Western‑centric narrative of war photography that marginalizes the very people who captured the ground truth. 7. How to Watch The Stringer and Join the Conversation Platform Availability Tips Netflix Global (over 100 countries) Use the search term “The Stringer”; enable subtitles for multilingual audiences. Film festivals Sundance 2024 (screened), Frontline Club (London) Look for Q&A sessions with Gary Knight or Bao Nguyen. Social media #TheStringer on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook Follow the hashtag for updates, behind‑the‑scenes clips, and scholarly debate. What you can do: Read the forensic report (available on the Seven Foundation website). Share the story with your photography community to spark discussions on credit attribution. Support local photographers by following their work on platforms like Vietnam Photo Archive or Fotodoc Center. 8. Takeaway: What This Means for Photojournalism Today Transparency is essential. Photo agencies must disclose the full chain of custody for images, especially in conflict zones. Credit deserves rigorous verification. The Napalm Girl case shows that even decades later, new evidence can overturn long‑standing attributions. Elevate local voices. Recognizing Vietnamese, Cambodian, Bosnian, Serbian, Ukrainian, and other native photographers enriches the historical record and promotes equity. Forensic tools are now part of journalism. Road‑testing, GIS mapping, and metadata analysis are valuable assets for future investigations. Bottom line: The Stringer isn't just a documentary—it's a catalyst urging the photojournalism community to re‑examine its myths, honor the unsung creators, and adopt a more accountable, data‑driven approach to storytelling.

This week we're rooting on Australia's bold new experiment: a nationwide social media ban for teens under 16 (even though we're not quite sure how it's gonna work). With companies on the hook for massive fines, we break down how the government plans to enforce it, what apps are included, and how we would've handled this kind of restriction as teens ourselves. Would we support something similar in the U.S., and would parents actually help enforce it? We also talk VPN loopholes, whack-a-mole app workarounds, and the nostalgia of being slightly less online growing up. We're also talking Hollywood's latest attention-grabbing strategy: vertical micro-dramas. With Netflix's bombshell bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery and streamers scrambling for our eyeballs, these 45-second, swipe-friendly “shows” are becoming a real investment. We discuss whether they work, why the “second screen problem” is driving this trend, and if TV has actually gotten worse, or if we've all just gotten too distracted. We wrap with recs: Think of setting New Year's themes, not resolutions (Andrew), vibration plates (Laura), and buying cleaning brush attachments for your drill head instead of buying a whole new cleaning appliance (Pam). And in this week's installment of After Dark: We get some follow up tea on family holiday drama, and we ask each other some probing questions about ourselves inspired by Teen Vogue's list of 215 questions to ask your friends.

Australia has officially banned teens and children from using social media, and Pags surprises everyone by saying he likes the idea. He explains why minors don't have the same rights as adults, how this could finally protect kids online, and whether America should consider a similar move. Then Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, joins the show for a sharp legal deep dive. They get into birthright citizenship, with Mike dismantling the media myth that “33 countries do it like America,” and breaking down how SCOTUS is likely to rule. He also fires back at Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, saying her comments reveal a major misunderstanding of the Constitution — especially regarding whether POTUS can fire executive-branch officials. A fiery, must-hear interview from one of the sharpest legal minds in the country. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In a world first, millions of Australian children and teenagers are prevented from accessing social media accounts. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told adolescents to make the most of the situation by taking up a new sport or reading a book, instead of scrolling on their phones. Under the legislation, companies could face heavy fines if they don't take reasonable steps to prevent under-16s from opening social media accounts. Social media firms have argued the ban would be ineffective, difficult to implement, and could isolate vulnerable teenagers.Also: tens of thousands flee their homes in border areas of Cambodia and Thailand after a resumption of fighting. An investigation finds at least 1700 civilians have been killed in airstrikes by Sudan's armed forces since the start of the civil war. South Korean police raid headquarters of the e-commerce giant Coupang. And a British man who was paralysed permanently 9 years ago, attempts a world record for sit-skiing to the South Pole.

This week on TechTime Radio, a state-backed cyber scheme hiding in plain sight. That's where we start: identity rental, deepfaked interviews, and remote tooling that let North Korean operators slip into real jobs at real companies. We unpack how recruiters lure engineers, what data they demand, and the quiet ways compromised devices become corporate backdoors. Then we get practical—clear verification steps for HR, device attestation, network controls, and a tighter handshake between hiring and security teams.From the office to the bookstore, we shift to the uneasy rise of AI-written titles and the complicated dance between reader demand, author craft, and copyright risk. We talk labels, discovery, and the thin line between helpful tools and hollow literature. Policy heats up as Australia forces a sweeping under-16 social media lockout. We parse the benefits, the whiplash, and the risk of driving teens to unmoderated spaces, and outline smarter safeguards like verified age gates, default privacy, and digital literacy.Then comes the jaw-dropper: researchers discover that stylized poetry can jailbreak safety systems across multiple chatbots. We explore why “style attacks” work, where current guardrails fail, and how to harden models with adversarial training, independent moderation, and server-side checks. Entertainment gets its own tremor as a rumored Netflix–Warner Bros.–HBO deal sparks questions about catalog control, competition, and what it means for your monthly subscriptions. And yes, we leave room for levity: the London velodrome's accidental “sound effect,” a raccoon's ill-fated whiskey tasting, and a cautionary tale of an AI agent that wiped a developer's entire drive without a confirmation.We close with our whiskey finals—WhistlePig PiggyBack Bourbon versus Bakta 1928 Rye—and crown a champion after a tight, flavor-first showdown.
