Questions
If William and Kate's Caribbean tour was “a PR disaster”, as the BBC's royal correspondent Jonny Dymond claims, there's a question to be asked about how much the BBC and its royal correspondent contributed to making one, especially with largely negative reports like this: Another question might be whether the following tweet, in reaction, is true: Only in this country would the ‘national’ broadcaster lead with such a negative headline on a overall successful royal tour! A third question might be whether the bad blood between Prince William and the BBC is getting out of hand and / o... read more

Cuba Prepares For Disaster
The September 2021 Scientific American included a description by the editors of the deplorable state of disaster relief in the US. They traced the root cause of problems with relief programs as their “focus on restoring private property,” which results in little attention to those “with the least capacity to deal with disasters.” The book Disaster Preparedness and Climate Change in Cuba: Adaptation and Management (2021) came out the next month. It traced the highly successful source of the island nation’s efforts to the way it put human welfare above property. This collection o... read more

The Media Campaign Against Maxim Gorky
After the abortive 1905 attempt by the communist revolutionaries to seize power in Russia, the Russian author Maxim Gorky (Aleksei M. Peshkov), accompanied by his wife, actress Maria Andreyeva, came to the United States on April 10, 1906. He was on a political mission—Lenin had told him to raise money from American donors for the cause of the Russian revolution. Gorky and his wife received a royal reception at Hoboken where their ship docked. Since they did not speak in English, an interpreter had come with them. Thousands of Russian immigrants cheered Gorky and carried him on their... read more

How the media helped rig the 2020 election for Biden
Newsbusters: The left-wing news media didn’t just poison the information environment with their incessantly negative coverage of President Trump going into the 2020 election. They also refused to give airtime to important arguments of the Republican campaign — both pro-Trump and anti-Biden — which meant millions of voters cast their ballots knowing only what the media permitted them to know about the candidates.
