One of them is propaganda. Misinformation campaigns have been on the rise partly due to the turn towards right-wing extremism in many parts of the world. Social media has created new ways to spread misinformation and propaganda, making education a powerful tool to combat the spread of lies and what we might call fake news. My guest today is Maria Ressa, a Filipino-American journalist and author. Co-founder of online news site Rappler, she has been an investigative reporter in Southeast Asia for CNN and was included in the 2018 Time's Person of the Year for her work combating fake news. She has been arrested for her reporting on Duterte, the Philippine president, and is currently on trial for cyberlibel. This episode was put together in collaboration with Education International. www.freshedpodcast.com/mariaressa/ Twitter: @FreshEdpodcast Facebook: FreshEd Email: info@freshedpodcast.com

Send us a textWhat if standing firm in your beliefs makes you more susceptible to misinformation? Join me, Darrell McClain, as we unpack the complex dance between truth and tribalism in our media landscape. This episode challenges the conventional notion that unwavering belief is a virtue and suggests that it might actually blind us to deception. By examining the web of misinformation, such as the baseless allegations involving USAID and figures like Chelsea Clinton, we strive to illuminate how ideological commitments can cloud judgment, urging listeners to sharpen their critical thinking skills.Dive into the murky waters of conspiracy theories as we dissect the false claims surrounding USAID's alleged financial dealings with celebrities and media outlets. From the fictitious narratives about payments to Ben Stiller and Angelina Jolie to the misinterpretations involving Politico and the BBC, we unravel the threads of deceit. Our aim is to differentiate between genuine financial transactions and mere subscriptions, highlighting the pressing need to combat misinformation in an age of rampant media trickery.The conversation doesn't stop there. We also tackle pressing issues like corporate layoffs and their impact on the job market, as well as stories of justice like Gilbert Merritt III's exoneration after two decades of wrongful imprisonment. Touching on broader societal and political issues, including the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the distractions of culture wars, we confront the moral dilemmas posed by political allegiances. This episode promises a thought-provoking journey through the complexities of justice, economics, and the political landscape, urging listeners to question and reason in our shared world.

Just a few decades ago most people used — and trusted — the same news sources. Now, Americans are siloed in separate ecosystems, consuming conflicting depictions of reality. Misinformation runs rampant. Conspiracy theories flourish. And extremism grows. What can bring us back to a shared, fact-based understanding? A new miniseries from Landslide explores America's information divide — starting with a coordinated campaign in the early 1970s to undermine the press, and the alternate media ecosystem that followed.Created and hosted by Ben Bradford.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What are the legal implications of the unprecedented mass pardoning of the January 6th rioters? What does it say about American rule of law? President Biden's DOJ prosecuted nearly 1,600 of the January 6, 2021, rioters—many for acts of shocking violence against police and government offices. On January 20, newly sworn-in President Trump, in one of his first official acts, issued a sweeping grant of clemency to all of the rioters charged in connection with the attack on the Capitol attack. He pardoned most defendants and commuted the sentences of 14 members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers militia, most of whom had been convicted of seditious conspiracy. The response from some of these violent rioters since the pardons has been alarming.“The people who did this, they need to feel the heat. We need to find and put them behind bars for what they did,” said Enrique Tarrio, the former national Proud Boys leader, sentenced to a 22-year sentence on seditious conspiracy charges, on Alex Jones' podcast soon after his pardon. Our guests today are Stanford Law Professor Shirin Sinnar and former DOJ prosecutor Brendan Ballou.Sinnar's scholarship, including a recent study of hate groups, focuses on the legal treatment of political violence, the procedural dimensions of civil rights litigation, and the role of institutions in protecting individual rights and democratic values in the national security contextBallou was a lawyer at the Department of Justice for five years. He resigned on January 23 soon after President Trump's pardons. In a New York Times opinion essay, he wrote: “For while some convicted rioters seem genuinely remorseful, and others appear simply ready to put politics behind them, many others are emboldened by the termination of what they see as unjust prosecutions. Freed by the president, they have never been more dangerous.” He graduated from Stanford Law in 2016.Links:Shirin Sinnar >>> Stanford Law pageNew York Times piece by Brendan Ballou >>> I Prosecuted the Capitol Rioters.

Meta is ending its third-party fact-checking program in the U.S. and allowing "more speech" on Facebook and Instagram.

Starting as an early AI enthusiast during his Stanford days, Reid Hoffman was eager to explore the potential of artificial intelligence, but the technology wasn't ready, so he shifted his focus. Years later, inspired by conversations with top tech innovators, he recognized AI's potential and seized the moment. He became a founding investor in OpenAI and later co-founded Inflection AI. In this episode, Reid introduces the concept of "superagency," where AI enhances human capabilities rather than replaces them, addresses common fears about AI, and shares his vision for a future shaped by AI-powered agents. In this episode, Hala and Reid will discuss:  (00:00) Introduction (01:06) AI as the Next Big Wave (03:30) AI, Jobs, and Concerns for the Future (08:01) Superagency: Amplifying Human Capability with AI (18:38) Training AI to Be a Better Human Companion  (22:20) Trust and Misinformation in the Age of AI  (25:01) Why Human Expertise Still Matters in AI (27:19) Reid's AI Twin (30:12) Leveraging AI for Content Creation (31:37) How AI Will Shape the Future Reid Hoffman is an entrepreneur, investor, partner at Greylock, and co-founder of LinkedIn and Inflection AI.

www.beautyschoolbobbi.com www.beautyandstylenetwork.com www.socialbeautymakers.com www.beautycastnetwork.com Follow Beauty and Style Network: @beautystylenet (instagram) Follow Beauty School Bobbi: @beautyschoolbobbi (instagram) Follow Gordon Miller: @gordnm (instagram)   In this conversation, Bobbi Powell and Gordon Miller discuss the evolving landscape of the beauty industry, emphasizing the importance of networking, education, and understanding the historical context of the field. They explore the challenges faced by new entrants, the impact of social media on perceptions of the industry, and the realities of self-employment. Gordon shares insights on the necessity of continuous learning and the transactional nature of relationships within the industry, ultimately stressing that success is not guaranteed and must be actively pursued. In this conversation, Gordon and Bobbi discuss the significance of hustle in achieving career longevity, the need to shift mindsets from viewing careers in the beauty industry as temporary to recognizing their potential for long-term success. They address the challenges posed by misinformation, the importance of professionalism, and the necessity of systems and processes in business. The discussion also covers future trends in the industry, including the rise of independence, the role of retail, and the impact of digital education. They emphasize the importance of building a supportive community and maintaining hope for the future of the industry.   Takeaways Networking is crucial for success in the beauty industry. Understanding the history of the industry helps navigate its future. Many young professionals feel entitled to success without the necessary experience. Self-employment in the beauty industry carries significant risks. Education should extend beyond technical skills to include business acumen. The beauty industry is increasingly self-employed, with 70% of professionals in this category. Life does not owe anyone success; it must be earned. Running a business is more challenging than performing technical skills. Continuous learning is essential for long-term success in beauty. The industry must address mental health and work-life balance more effectively. The hustle is essential for career longevity. Finding a personal version of hustle can lead to success. Shifting mindsets from temporary to long-term careers is crucial. Misinformation is a significant challenge in the industry. Professionalism is vital for the industry's reputation. Systems and processes are key to business success. Independence in the industry is on the rise. Retail remains a controversial yet important aspect of salons. Digital education is a game changer for the future. Building a trusted community is essential for growth.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Background 02:51 The Role of Networking in the Beauty Industry 06:04 Understanding the Importance of History 09:02 Navigating Change in the Beauty Industry 12:13 The Impact of Social Media on Perceptions 14:58 The Reality of Self-Employment in Beauty 17:51 Education and Continuous Learning 20:52 The Challenges of Business Ownership 23:57 The Transactional Nature of Industry Relationships 31:00 The Importance of Hustle in Career Longevity 33:58 Shifting Mindsets: From Temporary to Long-Term Careers 36:57 Navigating Industry Challenges: Misinformation and Professionalism 39:48 The Role of Systems and Processes in Business Success 42:57 Future Trends: Independence, Retail, and Digital Education 49:11 Building Community and Learning from Others 51:50 Hope for the Future: Professionalism and Industry Growth

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes The topic of Captain America reshoots is one we've discussed a lot and recently Cap himself Anthony Mackie addressed reshoot and poor test screening rumors head on, telling Empire “It wasn't retooled at all, every Marvel movie I've done has done reshoots, so it's not retooling or remaking. You basically get the movie and the story you want, you edit it together, then go back and shoot a few more scenes." Since last week, The Hollywood Reporter has also finally revealed that the total budget of the film is significantly less than previously thought - coming in at around $180 million dollars. Switching to the Sorcerer Supreme himself, Benedict Cumberbatch made some headlines after revealing in an interview with Variety that Doctor Strange will not be in Avengers: Doomsday. Cumberbatch cited the reason being Strange's character “not aligning with this part of the story,” and also let loose that the Master of the Mystic Arts will be in “a lot” of Avengers: Secret Wars. In typical James Gunn fashion, the director and DC Studios co-chair gave us a first look at Milly Alcock's Supergirl in a still photo he released on social media last week. The post also confirmed filming recently began. The weekend's NFL division championships provided space for a new-ish Superman trailer, with mostly the same footage, but a different look at Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luther. And in our final DC news nugget, actor Ulrich Thomson was cast as villain Sinestro for the upcoming Lanterns series. Thomsen is a Danish actor who was seen in The Blacklist here in the states. In comics, Sinestro is Hal Jordan's mentor. The Oscar nominations were unveiled last week after a brief delay caused by the devastating and ongoing fires in California. Leading the pack this year is Emilia Pérez, earning an impressive 13 nominations despite ongoing controversy surrounding the film's portrayal of cultural identity, which has sparked heated debates online. Close behind are The Brutalist and Wicked, tied with 10 nominations each and A Complete Unknown and Conclave earned eight nods apiece. On the studio front, Netflix emerged as the frontrunner with 16 total nominations, followed by A24 with 14, Universal with 13, Focus Features with 12, and Searchlight with 10. However, the announcement wasn't without its surprises—or disappointments—as some fan-favorite films, including Challengers, Furiosa, and Civil War, were notably snubbed. Warner Bros unveiled a new official trailer for SINNERS from director Ryan Coogler and frequent collaborator and star Michael B. Jordan, the film will hit theatres April 18. David Leitch — the stuntman turned director behind John Wick and The Fall Guy — is in talks to direct Ocean's 14. The film is expected to return original Ocean's 11 cast members George Clooney and Brad Pitt, among others. Neon has released the first trailer for horror film Hell of a Summer, starring Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard, who is also making his directorial debut. The film debuts in theaters on April 18. HBO has renewed anthology series The White Lotus for a fourth season. The third season will begin streaming on February 16. Focus Features, Universal's art house division which released and financed Nosferatu, is reteaming with Robert Eggers for his next film titled Werwulf, currently set for release on Christmas Day 2026. While details are scarce, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the story is set in 13th century England. George Nolfi, known for his screenplay work on movies such as The Bourne Ultimatum and Ocean's 12, has been tapped to write New Jedi Order, the Daisy Ridley-centric Star Wars movie. The move to Nolfi makes the third writer change for the project.

With 23 pro-lifers pardoned last week, we talk with Paul Vaughn, father of 11 who was arrested for praying for the unborn outside an abortion clinic in Tennessee. Offering a gripping account of the moments FBI agents arrived at his home to now being pardoned, Vaughn says his Christian faith carried him through the entire adversity. After a contentious RFK hearing on Capitol Hill, Mary Fiorito answers the question the HHS nominee had difficulty answering: Yes, states with pro-life laws can help pregnant women suffering from miscarriage and other complications. We also check in with Becket senior counsel Will Haun as the Supreme Court is expected to take up a very important case that is bringing parents of all faiths together in Maryland as they fight to keep pride books out of the classroom. Msgr. Father Roger Landry also offers an inspiring homily to prepare us for the Presentation of the Lord. Catch the show every Saturday at 7amET and %pmET EWTN radio!
