A deep analysis of the effort by powerful media platforms, to abolish truth and spread hatred and false information:
A speech of how media also can function as a propaganda canal for world leaders that won’t serve as servants for the people, but on the contrary make the people their servants or worse their slaves, by retaining power over them thru false news, and by creating artificial contradictions and divisions between their citizens as in the US.
In her lecture she warns even established democracies, that the tendency to use advanced technology to pollute information based on facts, threats true democracy in many countries today!
Ressa uses examples of how i.e Facebook earns billions of dollars by triggering and escalating divisions between citizens and hatred on their sites.
Two very worthy Peace Prize winners.
Journalist Maria Ressa from the Philippines, “Rappler” and Dimitry Muratov from Russia, director of the only critical free press newspaper “Novaja Gazeta”, receiving their Nobel Prize Gold medal and Diploma, in the big town hall of Oslo.
Maria Ressa’s speech or lecture at the Nobel ceremony in Oslo, Norway.( How much would you risk to fight for the truth?)
Muratov’s speech, and the speech of Nobel Prize laureate David Beasley director of the World Food Program ( 2020 Nobel Peace Price) will be posted later.
