2008-11-22T10:44:19Z

We are increasingly seeing extended negotiations between corporations and what we call stakeholder groups, says Steve Rochlin. But it's time-consuming and expensive, and some NGOs are suffering from "stakeholder negotiation fatigue." Web 2.0 is a great resource that helps us speed up this process.

Listening Post - YouTube killers - 03 Oct 08 - Part 1

2008-11-01T03:30:18Z

This week on The Listening Post, old media, new media and the phenomenon of the YouTube killers.

In this week's News Divide, we take a look at the latest phenomenon of our time, and our technology.

As the latest Finnish school shooter joins the ranks of a disturbing new breed of young mass murderers who have relied on the media to gain notoriety, the Listening Post explores the new media platforms, the videos they showcase and where the responsibility lies for policing the content. We also look how the mainstream media are handling this often graphic material and beaming it into the homes of unsuspecting viewers.

Plus, go to part two for 'Ramadan TV': the battle for the hearts and minds of Islamic viewers and the big business that it brings.

John McCain: Speech 08/09/08

2008-10-28T21:30:42Z

John McCain
Speech
Las Vegas, NV 08/09/08

TRANSCRIPT:
JOHN MCCAIN: It is every veteran's hope that should their children be called upon to answer a call to arms, the battle will be necessary and the field well chosen. But that is not their responsibility. It belongs to the government that called them. As it once was for us, their honor will be in their answer not their summons. Whatever we think about how and why we went to war in Iraq, we are all humbled by and grateful for their example. They now deserve the distinction of the best Americans, and we owe them a debt we can never fully repay. We can only offer the small tribute of our humility and our commitment to do all that we can do, in less trying and costly circumstances, to help keep this nation worthy of their sacrifice.

Many of them have served multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Many had their tours extended. Many returned to combat sooner than they had been led to expect. It was a sad and hard thing to ask so much more of Americans who have already given more than their fair share to the defense of our country. Few of them and their families will have received the news about additional and longer deployments without aiming a few appropriate complaints in the general direction of people like me, who helped make the decision to send them there. And then they shouldered a weapon or climbed in a cockpit and risked everything -- everything -- to accomplish their mission, to protect another people's freedom and our own country from harm.

John McCain: Town Hall Meeting 12/07/07

2008-10-27T03:30:47Z

John McCain
Town Hall
Atkinson, NH 12/07/07

TRANSCRIPT:
MCCAIN: "There's a long list of programs that I could tell you that I would cut and eliminate and frankly one of them is a lot of the farm subsidies. I don't support subsidies for ethanol. I think ethanol is a very fine, viable alternative. E85, that ethanol gas, which now all the Brazilians use to fuel their tanks, is a very good option. But I don't believe we should have subsidies. I don't think we should subsidize cotton in my home state of Arizona. And I think we should phase out a lot of these subsidies. I think we should phase out a whole broad variety of programs. One of the areas where we have to go, I'm talking about big money, after we eliminate the wasteful spending, is defense."
