On July 31st, Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas's top political leader, was killed in Iran. Haniyeh came to the capital city of Tehran for the presidential inauguration; an explosive device went off in the guest house where he was staying. Just hours before, Haniyeh had met with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Israel hasn't taken responsibility for the attack, but they're widely believed to be responsible—especially given their history of targeted political assassinations. Indeed, Haniyeh's killing followed Israel assassination of Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr in Lebanon one day earlier. Haniyeh was killed in the middle of ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel. With the death toll in Gaza nearing 40,000, and the family members of Israeli hostages desperately calling for a prisoner exchange, the pressure to come to an agreement has been mounting. But Haniyeh was a chief negotiator in those talks, and now, the chances of arriving at a deal seem further than ever.Meanwhile, Iran has vowed to retaliate against Israel for the attack on their soil. As of Thursday, August 8th, that hasn't happened yet, but many now fear that tensions could lead to a wider regional war. In this collaboration between Unsettled Podcast and On the Nose, Unsettled producer Ilana Levinson interviews Tareq Baconi, author of Hamas Contained: The Rise and Pacification of Palestinian Resistance, to make sense of these developments and what Haniyeh's assassination means for the future of the region. This episode was produced by Ilana Levinson with Emily Bell. Music in this episode from Blue Dot Sessions.

Practical Guide to Legislative Change as a Registered Nurse Learn about what level of government would make the changes you want to see. Find out: is this a federal, state, or local issue? Federal government example: Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) reimbursement rates for advanced practice nurses State government example: Scope of practice for advanced practice nurses Figure out WHO are the elected officials that represent you at that level of government because you are their constituent. It is their job to listen to your concerns! Best website: https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials Federal legislators: One U.S. House of Representatives member (representing your congressional district, where you live in the state) and two senators (represent the entire state, not just your district) State legislators: State house representative and state senator (typically both represent a district within your state) Local officials:County/City Executive/Supervisor/Commissioners, etc. Learn about your elected officials! For example, to learn more about your U.S. House member, look them up at https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative. Select their name to bring you to their personal House.gov website, which includes the member’s committee assignments and their office’s contact information. Federal legislators will have at least two offices; one in Washington, DC, and one or more within the congressional district itself. Each office has federal congressional staffers working to address constituents’ concerns and provide official follow-up. There are options to call, fax, e-mail, or speak with staff in-person. Within the district office, these staff members typically include a constituent service representative. A U.S. House member specifically represents your district’s needs (including you as a constituent) to Congress more so than U.S. Senators, as they represent your entire state’s needs. If you are interested in a state issue, please be aware that state representatives and senators are “part-time” legislators. State legislative bodies typically meet in the first months of the year but occasionally are called back for special sessions. This website shows upcoming state legislative schedules: https://documents.ncsl.org/wwwncsl/About-State-Legislatures/2024-sessions-calendar.pdf Your state should have similar websites for its representatives and senators. These elected officials will likely have an office in your state’s capitol and within the district where staffers are available to address constituent concerns. It is important to be aware of your legislator’s committee assignments and if they serve in any kind of leadership role. Do they sit on a health committee? Are they the chair of a committee? Committee assignments often are related to the member’s legislative areas of expertise and related to their professional background before running for elected office. Committees will be the first place legislative change will be introduced, debated, and voted on before coming to the full legislative body. Sadly, many bills “die” in committee and thus, support from these smaller groups is needed first! Many organizations develop a form letter for you to send to a legislator regarding an issue or a specific bill. These are helpful but please be aware that if you cut/paste, sign, and send, your letter will be placed in a pile with the rest; depending on the size of the pile of form letters about one issue, this will impact how much attention the office and the elected official gives to a certain topic. Please take 5-10 minutes to personalize the form letter with your own experiences and always make sure to include in the first sentence that you are a constituent of the elected official (and maybe if you voted for them). Talk about how the congressional district is impacted by the issue specifically. Provide your background as a nurse and your contact information so the legislative staff may follow up with you about your experience and your expertise on the subject. Reach out to nursing organizations that may already be advocating for this issue.They may have a legislative “champion” that has sponsored bills in the past and is helping to move towards progress on this issue. Some nursing organizations are allowed to hire lobbyists, and some organizations cannot because of their tax filing statuses. Some nursing organizations have political action committees (PACs) that raise money to impact legislation. Nursing organizations can come together into coalitions in an effort to move forward complex legislative issues. Get to know your legislators as individuals. Often this happens by volunteering your time to help them out. Frequently during campaign season. Volunteering is easy and fun. The campaign provides you with all the training and materials. You just provide your time and enthusiasm. Examples: Phone banking (making phone calls to constituents), door knocking (walking around neighborhoods in the district, knocking on doors to offer information about the individual or leaving a hanger on their doorknob if not home or available), or different forms of fundraisers.

Over the past year thousands of journalists have lost their jobs as mass media news organisations struggle to make ends meet. Ad revenue is down, many publishers are struggling to gain subscribers, and social media has resulted in plummeting traffic to homepages. More than a third of people worldwide say they sometimes or often actively avoid the news, many citing their mental health and concerns that they can't do anything about the problems reported. Meanwhile advancements in artificial intelligence promise rapid changes to the way journalism is done. So, what's the future of journalism?

On Saturday, October 7th, Hamas launched a surprise attack across the Gaza border, killing more than 1,400 Israelis, mostly civilians, and taking at least 150 Israeli hostages, most of whom are still captive in the Gaza Strip. Israel responded to the attack by declaring war and cutting off food, water, and electricity to Gaza. On Friday, October 13th, Israel ordered 1.1 million people in the northern part of Gaza to evacuate as it prepares for a ground invasion, and Israeli air strikes have already killed nearly 4,000 people in the area.

Emily recently passed away, and I hope she can inspire us all one more time with her message of "live by faith, not fear." Full Show Notes Learn more about your ad choices.

In the spring, Tech Policy Press editor Justin Hendrix teaches a course called Tech, Media and Democracy that is a partnership of faculty at NYU, Cornell Tech, CUNY's Queens College, The New School and Columbia Journalism School. The course hosts a range of expert speakers on issues at the intersection of those topics, and graduate students in journalism, information science, computer science, media studies and design collaborate to produce prototypes and investigations of key issues. A recent guest speaker was Peter Pomerantzev, an author and researcher who is concerned with propaganda, polarization and how we come to understand the world around us. Emily Bell, director of the Tow Center at Columbia and one of the faculty on the course, led the discussion, which ranges from topics including the information component of the war in Ukraine to the tension between democracy and authoritarianism to the role of journalism and technology in shaping public discourse.

Elon Musk's ownership of Twitter has inspired news headlines once unimaginable (see New York Magazine's "Elon Musk is Selling Off Twitter's Cafeteria and Furniture"). It has also created serious problems for journalists who rely on the platform for developing sources, finding stories, and driving readership. It's not safe to do journalistic business on the platform anymore, Emily Bell, founding director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism told Kyle Pope, editor and publisher of the Columbia Journalism Review, in this week's episode of the Kicker. Together, Pope and Bell discuss how journalists should (or shouldn't) cope with Musk's Twitter, which Bell calls “an unstable substance,” and what might be lost if Twitter were to disintegrate completely.

If you turned on your wireless set 100 years ago, what would you have heard? Katie Razzall looks back at the earliest days of the BBC as it celebrates its centenary, hearing how the idea of a single, national broadcaster came into being. Early broadcasts involved reading out railway timetables and mocking up Big Ben's chimes on tubular bells, but very quickly the power of wireless broadcasting became apparent. From debates about the difficulties of enforcing the licence fee to fraught deals with newspapers and live performers who feared competition and losing audiences to the newly-formed BBC, some of the discussions have never gone away. But will the BBC last another century? Guests: Mark Damazer, executive at the BBC for more than 30 years, including as controller of Radio 4; Jean Seaton, professor of media history at the University of Westminster and an official historian of the BBC; Paul Kerensa, broadcaster on BBC Radio Essex and producer of the podcast British Broadcasting Century, which tells the story of the BBC from the beginning; Emily Bell, founding director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia Journalism School.

Last week at Stanford University, former President Barack Obama gave a https://techpolicy.press/transcript-barack-obama-speech-on-technology-and-democracy/ (keynote address) at a Stanford University Cyber Policy Center symposium entitled “Challenges to Democracy in the Digital Information Realm." This week, many of the issues Obama discussed were brought into sharp relief when it was announced that billionaire Elon Musk will acquire Twitter for the price of $44 billion dollars. For reactions to Obama's speech- and to Musk's antics- I spoke with David Kaye, Professor of Law at UC Irvine and the former United Nations Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression; Emily Bell, Director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University; and Jameel Jaffer, Director of the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University.  In the opening, you'll also hear just under the last five minutes of Obama's speech, which will give you a sense of it.

Ein al-Beida is a fresh water spring that used to be the main source of water for several Palestinian villages — until Israeli settlers moved in and claimed the spring as their own. On a cold Friday morning, two hundred Palestinians and Jews march together to the spring to take it back. Then the army shows up.Unsettled producer Max Freedman reports from the center of the action: what goes according to plan, what doesn't, and what happens next."The Birthday Party" was reported by Max Freedman, and produced by Max Freedman, Emily Bell, and Ilana Levinson, with help from Asaf Calderon. Music from Blue Dot Sessions. Visit www.unsettledpod.com to see Max's photos from his time in the West Bank, and all of Unsettled's previous reporting about the South Hebron Hills.

Lilly is a young activist from North London who has been to the West Bank many times before — just never with other Jews. In this episode of “The Birthday Party,” Lilly talks about the teenage rebellion that first brought her to Palestine, and why she now believes she can have the greatest impact within her Jewish community.Unsettled producer Max Freedman follows Lilly and other activists with the Center for Jewish Nonviolence as they get to know the people and the landscape of the South Hebron Hills, and prepare to stand alongside Palestinians as they directly challenge the Israeli occupation forces.“The Birthday Party” was reported by Max Freedman, and produced by Max Freedman, Emily Bell, and Ilana Levinson, with help from Asaf Calderon. Music from Blue Dot Sessions.

Bob first visited Israel in 1969, when he was on leave from his U.S. military service in Vietnam. He was raised in a Zionist home; he has relatives who proudly live in former Palestinian houses; he once volunteered on an IDF base. But now, at 71 years old, Bob is entering the West Bank for the first time.He's one of 44 diaspora Jews who have come to the South Hebron Hills with the Center for Jewish Nonviolence to practice co-resistance with Palestinians. In the second episode of “The Birthday Party,” producer Max Freedman spends time with Bob as he confronts the reality of occupation — and his own identity.“The Birthday Party” was reported by Max Freedman, and produced by Max Freedman, Emily Bell, and Ilana Levinson, with help from Asaf Calderon. Music from Blue Dot Sessions.

In this special miniseries from Unsettled, producer Max Freedman spends nine days in the South Hebron Hills with Palestinians and Jews working together to oppose and obstruct the occupation. This trip, organized by the Center for Jewish Nonviolence, culminates in a dramatic direct action known by a code name: “the birthday party.”In the first episode, Max gets to know Tariq, a Palestinian teacher from the village of Umm al-Khair. Umm al-Khair is surrounded on three sides by an Israeli settlement, and the residents live under constant threat of violence and demolition. Tariq explains how his family came to live in this area, how he became an activist, and why he believes in co-resistance with Jewish allies.“The Birthday Party” is reported by Max Freedman, and produced by Max Freedman, Emily Bell, and Ilana Levinson, with help from Asaf Calderon.

On March 15, Israel's High Court of Justice heard a case that could lead to one of the largest forced population transfers in recent history. For more than 20 years, Israel has been trying to expel the residents of 12 Palestinian villages in a part of the West Bank called Masafer Yatta. The state claims they need the land for a military firing zone. If the court agrees, 1,300 Palestinians might be removed from their homes.In this episode, producer Max Freedman speaks to Ali Awad and Maya Rosen about this decades-long legal battle and what's at stake. Ali and Maya are both organizers of the Save Masafer Yatta campaign, which aims to stop this eviction by turning Masafer Yatta into a household name.Unsettled is produced by Emily Bell, Asaf Calderon, Max Freedman, and Ilana Levinson.

From March 4, 2021: On this episode of Arbiters of Truth, the Lawfare Podcast's miniseries on disinformation and misinformation, Evelyn Douek and Quinta Jurecic spoke with Emily Bell, the founding director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia Journalism School. Emily testified before Congress last week about the role of legacy media, and cable news in particular, in spreading disinformation, but she's also one of the keenest observers of the online news ecosystem and knows a lot about it from her days as director of digital content for The Guardian. They talked about the relationship between online and offline media in spreading disinformation, the role different institutions need to play in fixing what's broken and whether all the talk about “fighting misinformation” is a bit of a red herring.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

On this episode of Arbiters of Truth, the Lawfare Podcast's miniseries on disinformation and misinformation, Evelyn Douek and Quinta Jurecic spoke with Emily Bell, the founding director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia Journalism School. Emily testified before Congress last week about the role of legacy media, and cable news in particular, in spreading disinformation, but she's also one of the keenest observers of the online news ecosystem and knows a lot about it from her days as director of digital content for The Guardian. They talked about the relationship between online and offline media in spreading disinformation, the role different institutions need to play in fixing what's broken and whether all the talk about “fighting misinformation” is a bit of a red herring.

Ambitious women get held to tricky double standards; there's the expectation that they should have the drive and vision of ambitious men but are also expected to ‘be nice', to care take others and to not threaten men. And women are often harshly judged for many of the more negative downsides to ambition – such as being less considerate of others and demanding your worth – which are either seen as positives or neutral when done by men.We're living in an era when there is probably more acceptance of female ambition and championing of women's potential than ever before. But still, why do we have these impossible double stands for ambitious women?Note: this is the final episode of Season 2. We will be back with Season 3 on 19th June 2018, and we will also be releasing a few mini-episodes before then.Host and producer: Nas aka Nastaran Tavakoli-FarCo-host: Jonathan FreemanCo-producers: Sam Baker and Jonathan BlackwellGuests: Sam Baker, co-producerAlice, teacherRelated links:‘Jill Abramson and the wholly sexist narrative of the woman in power' by Emily Bell, The Guardian https://bit.ly/2Tb64dw‘Jill Abramson loses the newsroom' by Dylan Byers, Politico https://politi.co/2Ts8Iec‘Good Jill, Bad Jill' by Lloyd Grove, Newsweek https://bit.ly/RSz1XtThe Gender Knot podcast and Facebook Grouphttps://www.thegenderknot.com/https://www.facebook.com/groups/182851532302085/Recommended podcast: A Therapist Walks Into a Bar https://www.atherapistwalksintoabar.com/Music: Government Funded Weed by Black Ant (used under Creative Commons) 5 Pieces by Black Ant (used under Creative Commons)
