Remarkable
7:41 the way Hugo said it was so unclear to my ear that I neeeded to browse this saying. Still don't know what he exactly said.
He quoted W. Churchill who once ironically remarked that " A lie goes half around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on".
@@zarinaorynkhanova8881 I've stumbled upon two versions: (1) A lie travels around the globe while the truth is putting on its shoes, (2) A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on. I wasn't sure about the ending. Thanks to you, I know that he said 'its pants on.'
@@yawallo I didn't know about the other 2 versions! Thank you!
Hi yawallo. The video has subtitles - you just have to activate them.
Keep up to date with language, advice and news related to coronavirus. Here's our CZcams playlist: bit.ly/312yUyR

In Italy we use propaganda with the same meaning.
It's an interested program
*interesting
Yes💖
Hi Metwaly Aziz. Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you find our video interesting.
Are you suggesting that some people actually like fake news? As if fake news is not fake news because it is news that is fake, but rather because it is news that the person labelling it as being "fake news", simply does not like it. If you desire accuracy in your reporting, then why not refer to it as being "unliked news", rather than trying to psychologically manipulate your audience into projecting false definitions onto popular terms as a means to control the general populace's perspective.

BBC Learning English - whatever happened to educative content (geography, history, high culture)?
- media and politically based stuff gets very boring after a while and many ESL/EFL students do
not find it interesting.
Hi Annabelle. Maybe it's about the way the knowledge is presented and made relevant. We teach English and try to make it interesting. We have a series called The Teachers' Room which offers a range of teaching techniques and ideas for language lessons. bbc.in/2FniGIj
Samantha Bradshaw sounds reasonable, but I don't think she was aware of how little control over the flow of information that journalists, editors, and TV channels once held. Yes, with a keyboard, fake news, and/or disinformation can spread to thousands of people in no time, and she mentions that this condition can impact, and affect democracy, and she is absolutely correct regarding those elements.
Whether she has awareness, or not, she failed to mention how practically every single major social media website, has gradually been implementing new rules, guidelines, regulations, and policies for its users over the past couple of years, along with new mechanisms for enforcing these new rules, to where anybody can be easily removed/deleted from their site. Not only can their account be deactivated, but it can be so thoroughly deleted that no single trace of evidence will remain that could suggest said account did once exist upon that website.
Hell, YT will make my comments appear invisible to everyone except myself, unless I'm logged into a different account. I can return to a comment section where I had posted a comment, and as long as I am logged into the same account that I used to post said comment, it will still be there for me to read, a day later, a week, a month, etc. just so long as I'm using the same account, but to everyone else (including me logged into a different account), there will be no trace of my comment. This does not happen to all of my comments, just specific ones that had violated a new rule they had created of which I was unaware. Further, YT never bothered to inform me once that there was a problem with any of my censored comments, yet I have received warnings about posting potential "hate" comments asking me if I was sure I wanted to post said comment as written. Most of the time, it was just some bot that was unable to factor in context to realize that the comment had no hate within. Yet, they still informed me of my potential violation of their rules, and then inquired what to do about it. However, with my censored comments not one peep, plus they intentionally misled me to believe that my comment had posted successfully, and was present for anyone, and everyone to read. One would figure from standard practice, including how YT handles other violations of their rules that I should have been informed on some level that there was some issue with my comments, but no . . . nothing. Then again, I guess that would have informed me that I was being censored, while keeping me in the dark regarding the removal/censorship of some of my comments, they would be able to hide the censorship behind for some unknown length of time surely longer than what it would have been if they actually informed of such activity. One would assume that YT would follow what would be considered standard practice in dealing with unwanted comments, and when there was potential violation of the rules from one of my comments, one would assume that YT would handle it in a standard common fashion practice, and in some similar fashion as to how they handle other comment violations. Other violations, they would inform me of the potential violation, which would have likely been followed by some "READ OUR RULES AND GUIDELINES, and then either post again making sure to follow our rules, or if you feel that our removal was wrong, please contact us at XXX." No, not one single word concerning this matter. So, I have no clue as to how long this practice may have been affecting my posted comments. Maybe I discovered this rather inconsiderate, and likely malevolent practice shortly after it was first applied to my comments, or perhaps it had been in effect for a few years, I just do not know.
Regardless, in knowing this method of censorship exists, and is in practice, only adds to the believability that these social media websites are making changes so they can, not only disappear entire accounts of those who speak a little too much of this or that topic, but more importantly, is the fact that none of this has anything to do with creating a safe place free from the bad, boogey men, nor about protecting the children, or any other horse crap justification. This boils down to censorship, and establishing the means to have complete control over the "free flow" of information . . . and all of this tyrannical behavior will be performed under the guise of nothing has changed here, go about your usual business of sharing videos of your cats, with their worms sticking half way out, and being dragged behind them, but don't you dare mention how the votes of some election simply do not add up correctly, nor mention how some major global news event has happened, and is being reported on, prior to it actually occurring, and then having the cojones to actually question how such an event could happen!
She is living within a distorted reality that limits her perspectives, which in turn limit her understanding of the world around her, and therefore, she has failed to see that the way in which fake news affects democracy runs deeper, and more complex than her simplistic structures of cause and effect. Things do not appear as they truly are!

Probably it just seems to me that Sam is sad all the time.
Fake is the new f word 😮
