It's not just about the social media, it's about the limits of the speech

In the trial against MV-lehti and Ilya Janitskyn, is the question about the right to write about thigs, what would be not tolerated in the old fashion media, and at the same time the court is metering the limits of the writings in social media. And at the same time would somebody looking for the decision about the writer of social media right to use the name "magazine" in their homepages.  But also we are facing the problem of the journalism, what is the very complicated thing.


Normally freedom of speech is meaning, that every person has right to make that kind of writings what he or she wants, but there would be no answer, what to do when if the opinion of the writer is against the opinion of the line of the magazine. And it is problematic because the journalist is in the similar relationship for the employer as the normal worker. So if the employer wants, the content of the text should follow the line of the magazine or media house.


But is the case, where the head journalist wants that the henchman changes the content against freedom of speech? And what to do, if some journalist would make the publications same time in the magazines like MV-lehti, what are actually the social media channels? Here we must also ask another question about the publications like MV-lehti, and that is very complicated: should that channel mention, that there is a "Facebook-style" channel, and would the persons, who own that channel also have the responsibility to moderate the writings, what are published in that media.


And what to do, if some journalist would write to those social media- magazines in their free time.  That means that nothing limits the journalists work when that person is not in the office. The big question is,  would that cause the divorcing if those writings are against the line of the workplace? Those are difficult questions, and there would not be right answers for this kind of things.

Have a nice day Dr. Venkman



Kimmo Huosionmaa

When we are thinking about the movie "Ghostbusters" and the one of the last chapter, where the demon is waiting that somebody says, what kind of character it should take, we might think that thing is impossible. But as we know, the characters, are actually different demons, and the thing, what would somebody say, is actually an order, that certain demon must come to the Earth, and this would transfer straight to Mafia.


In this texts might be some very strange forms of the used worlds, because tautophony is prohibited in the grammatical regulations. That's why I must choose the worlds what do not begin with the same letter. But let's go back to the mafia-men office and hire that man, who would do our dirty work for us, and when the hitman would be hired, the mafia-boss just ask, what kind of "service" would that hitman give. And then the service would be the character, and if the client wants the service as the accidental burn in the competitor's office, would that person show only the child' playing card, where is the character fireman. And then the competitor's office would be burn.


When we are thinking about the situation, where Dr. Venkman and the fellows were in that comedy, they should understand that demon or an alien would ever be on  the Earth, and that's why the most horrifying thing, what that demon might know would be that candy because those things kill more people than anything else in the world. In our world, the sugars and grease kill more people than anything else. And that might be on the list of that demon offerer because that person would read on the list of common causes of the death. Today one of the TV-chefs have died, and that was, of course, be a notable thing in the media. 


That person was very loved, and the next writing is not about this person, I hope. This case or writing in the media was brought some very bad thoughts in my mind. Normally we think, that some people are really warm and shiny person because they like our parents or family members. But sometimes I have met the persons, who are very nice and warm persons in the front of the people, but in the back office,  they are tyrants, what are under the estimation limit. 


They might just yell to henchmen that if the job is not done well, they would kick them off immediately because there are many persons behind the door. When we are thinking of that candy, what destroys all city, we must say, that this is one of the greatest fears in the mind of some people. That demon is that those persons are called always as the "fat". They would have the candies, with them, and everybody calls them losers. 


But there is one paradox with those "losers". We are all asked, why those nerds are so big authority in the working life? When we are thinking about the case, where somebody will attend to some job like fireman, police or some other that kind of job, the main role of the selection process would be medical doctors and other persons, who were graduated in the university. Those persons would always be mentioned as the unsuitable for the missions of that organization, and that's fine.


 But why those academical persons have the key role in the selection process, if there were not a single good word about them. And the most hated situation comes, when somebody, who works in public career and seems to be a very nice person would be a total asshole in the back. And sometimes that would be very hard to say because that kind of people can act very nice way. And nobody believes, what happens, where no other person would be seen.

How to become popular in politics?


The Parliament of Finland

https://avoimenkoodinmaailma.blogspot.com/p/how-to-become-popular-in-politics.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Many people might think, that this is the re-take of another text, what I wrote yesterday, but the reason, why somebody becomes popular in the political field is the very good question, and that's why I write it here. First, the person, who wants to be popular, must make speeches about the things, what people want to hear. And sometimes that is far away from realistic opportunities, what the state can give to the voters. There are always limits, what the state can pay because the national economy would and property of the state give limits, for what the government can buy, and what kind of taxes it must take from people. If there would be big payments, must the state increase level of taxes to fix the budgets.


Also, friends in the press and media would help the politician to get the opinions known to the large group of people. So politicians must make good influence about themselves for media, that the reporters would say good worlds for their program. And praise the opportunities, what the politician would give to the field of politics. This is the very good idea to become popular in every field, and of course, the good way to see, what makes people interested and like about the politician, is use decibel meter, and meter the time of the applause after speaking.


The feeling at the front of the speaker is the very good meter for the political leader or person who wants to become the political leader, that people want to hear the speeches of that person. And one of the worst mistakes is made in this field because if somebody offers something from some organization, should this person also mention, own position in that system.


Uniformed organizations are of course the very good field when something wants to promise, but there is one little problem with them. There is so little number of police officers and professional military men in the western democracies, that their votes would not raise any person in the position of prime minister. But those kinds of groups are the good field to give permissions because they seem like big and homogeneous groups. But the problem is those people afraid uniforms, and if the politician promises very much for those actors, would that cause that normal people would not give votes to that politician, what seems like some totalitarian.


And this is one reason, why the Second World War veterans got so much positive publicity, and many permissions were given straight to them. They were the big group of people, who have the same background. And if those big groups of people like some political movement or party, that brings votes for politicians. This is the mathematics of democracy. If somebody wants to get the workplace in the parliament, this person must get popularity from the people, that have only one vote to give. And only the vote, what is dropped in the box means in the election. The politicians want to please the major part of the electors, and if they want votes for new political movement, they must promise something different than old-school political leaders. And of course, they must get publicity.


That's why every political movement is very radical when it begins the work. Radicalism brings votes, and then they would get the place in the cabinets. And new political movements can always blame old actors, that all mistakes are made by them. One thing what would bring support from media is mention that some political movement has the biggest group of members in the political field. This might be sound good, but then we must ask one question: how many members are found in the party? And at the same time ask, clear answer to the question, by using numbers. In the field of politics is a good thing to find supporters from the media, because that brings free space for political advertising.


Same time, we might ask how many members are in the average party, what acts in the country, where lives five million people, and in the parliament is ten parties. There are 17 registered parties in Finland, and this makes me ask, how many members really is in those parties. But the being biggest party in the political field is the very notable thing, and it would bring more positive writings in media because big parties can get more sure places from parliaments than small parties. The membership of big party would bring more personal good for the active member, who is the good speaker than membership in the small party.


But same way we must say, that in the big party is found many opinions and the one permission is not enough, because the votes must be collected from the larger field. And that's why there must make investigations of average persons in the voting area, and make some permissions to them, and then some permissions, what are targeted in some precisely selected areas. If there would be many families with children, they might want some services for children, and if there would be the active military reserve, would they be interested in military funding for armed forces. Those examples are very far away from together, and that's why I put them here.


They are the perfect thing for compilation, what kind of permissions must politician give in the career. And that shows, how difficult is to be the politician. Without permission is no votes, and if the permissions go for wrong persons, who don't live in the voting area, would that cause the catastrophe. That means the end of the political career if the person is the first time in the election campaign. And if the result is the flop, would the supporters go to find another politician, whose campaign they want to sponsor.

Stop the rumors but keep the open and innovative atmosphere in the workplace

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.com.ee/p/stop-rumors-but-keep-open-and.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

This might be a good slogan in some workplaces. Working life is very difficult, even without persons who come to some meetings and tell that "There were some investigations about this thing in UCLA", and after that, this person gives us a very great smile, that this investigation was the thing, what is synonyms for our decision. When we are asking about those investigations, the results would be publishing after two weeks, but this person has heard rumors of those results have been told by some reporter, from some kind of "Rolling Stone" magazine, who have heard them in some cafeteria near the University of Helsinki.


This feels the very confessing thing, and that is the reason, why we must spend 30 minutes of our working day. Press is very good thing to get information, but if somebody wants to say, that in the press is written something, could this person bring that magazine with him or her to the meeting, that rest of us would see what is written in that article, what is written by some very popular and well-known person, who has been written to many publications, what are delivered to many top specialists of the world. Working life is the amazing thing if somebody is the very social person.


But the discussions about trends are the little bit disturbing if somebody in the same room makes the difficult code for some computer program. Also when we are talking about trends, we have the little bit difficult to find so-called trend work in the real life workplaces. Ordinary working life is far away from the "work" what is introduced in some TV-series. The picture what is given in those "soap operas" is that in the workplace is feeling like in champagne parties, and there would ever be any real jobs to do.
Then those persons would have unlimited money to spend in some restaurants, where they have always date-mates, who drive with nice sports cars. In real working life, we don't transfer to our home under one second. And in the real life, we are sometimes tired or angry. We are not social all the time, and we are sometimes making mistakes while we are talking to other persons. Sometimes the customers would come to visit in those stores, where workers normally talk together and are very social.


This world of soap operas would be very nice, but those persons live only in those TV-series. In real life, we are only humans, and we are making mistakes all the time. And we would not shine non-stop and sometimes some customer would come to disturb our shining input workplace. This is sad but true in modern life. That is far away from things, what we will see in modern media. Even in the time of digitization, the press is the very important source for information, but when somebody uses that information in the meetings and conferences, should the same information deliver to every person, who takes part of the meeting.


This helps to make conclusions about the information, what is delivering in those meetings, where is sometimes the question of millions of Euros. And in those cases should information, what is delivered in those meetings be absolute true, and the quality of the source must able to check, because if the information what is given is wrong, would the damages be very big, and the reputation of the company could be gone, if the investment would be wrong. And that is the key element for successful business. And only successful business increase the value of the corporation.


But we must understand that one part of the successful business is that business is moral and ethical action. It would be very embarrassing to catch about the use of child workers or pollution, and that would make very bad damage for the corporation, even if the action would be legal. And this would make the very strong negative influence for the production of the company. In those cases would not be the very good act to say that all working of the company is legal, because if that country has no legislation about those things, would every kind of actions in this sector be legal. And if there would be no laws about some things like corruption, those laws are very difficult to break.


With corruption, everybody should be very careful because that would bring the person near to corrupted officials, and that be very dangerous for health. Those persons who are corrupted could be very violent, because that can bring them very long period in jail, and that's why they can make even murders. In some nations is behavior, that sometimes some polices or other officials would be arrested for corruption. In those countries, the corruption is the very common problem, and that's why those governments sometimes give some officials to the lions, as we must say. That makes them seem active in the field of anti-corruption.


And of course, own citizens are satisfied in that time when a couple of sergeants of the police would send to jail because of corruption. In those nations, almost every official take profits in their position. This is the sad thing in the modern world, where everybody should live free, and people should trust their governments. But there are still countries, where people scare about law enforcement, and that makes the drug dealing and using the land area easy to use in the training of terrorism. And those problems caused bad things even in the streets of Finland or some other European country.

A relationship between social and printed media

Kimmo Huosionmaa


When we are talking about trusted media, we must say that of course printed newspapers are very high ranking and professional way to make media, but in some cases that thing have been caused even genocides. The problem is that some dictators are used printed newspaper against their political oppositions. In those cases, the "faked news" are caused the persecutions and violence against persons, who have talked against the dictators. This is one way to say, that many times dangerous is use trusted media for getting power in the state. I mean here, that also printed media can be used as developing the faked news and lies for people.


And this kind of misuse of media is always very dangerous because people are always trusted the media. But when we are thinking about social media, what is very unreliable, we must see one thing. When we are walking on the street, we don't have to look Facebook all the time. And we can remove that application from the telephones. That means we can just watch that thing couple of times per day. And the problem with social media is of course that if the people would use that thing, they might uncover very big secrets, or what do you think that somebody would publish the images from the house, where is guns on the wall. That kind of things is very bad for public safety.


But when we are thinking the role of social media, we must not stare that all the time, and when we are talking about the use of social media, those applications are meant to use together. So the all writings should be published in WordPress or Blogger, and then the links can be shared on Facebook etc. If we are thinking about working day and social media, we must say that the time for social media can leave outside the working day, if that feels disturbing. But the use of social media sometimes uncovers the little secrets, like that some worker, who is claimed to be an engineer has no training or education at all.


This might cause the little bit embarrassing situation if some team leader has been played an engineer, and then the dirty secret would be uncovered. In that case, somebody might want to ask, "why that person has not done anything".  And of course, if somebody writes bullshit or prosecutes somebody without evidence, can this person take to court. This is one very complicated question of social media. Superiority has right to deny the use of social media in working time, but if there find the things that are illegal, that would make possible to prosecute this person in the courtroom.


Nobody wants to be the asshole in the eyes of the family, and that would be a reason why some directors are wanted to deny the use of social media. But sometimes the reason for denying the social media is more complicated. There are cases that some other reasons were behind the blocking the social media, and one of them is, that worker keeps sick leave, but then there would be the picture, where this person sits on the terrace and drinks beer. That would be little embarrassing thing.

About the truth and lies, what is written by poets and historians



Kimmo Huosionmaa

None historian ever told the absolute truth, and the history has been faked from ancient Greece. The reason, why historians told lies about the leaders was practical. If the leaders of the nations didn’t like the texts, what historians wrote, their fate was very painful death in the mouth of emperors pet crocodile or lion. In the real world, the politics have been the ruling element when historians wrote their texts.


When we are observing the familiar books like Julius Caesar’s ” War in Gallic” we must consider, that there are many things, what makes us to suspect that this book is some kind of ”better version” about the things, what claimed to happen, when Julius Caesar was head of the legions in Gallic. I believe that some of those texts are written in some European courts in the medieval period, or they can be made later.


The part of the book, where Caesar tells about the invasion of Britannia is a part, what is not written any master of poems and rhetorics. And when we are looking at the pictures of Dover straight, we must see that the horses are not suitable in that place because the crag is so high. So did somebody made that mistake on purpose? Another part of this column of the text is full of errors, and all story feels like they were in some taverna.


So if the writer made those errors on purpose, we must ask does he lived at the same time as Caesar. In this case, that part of the text has been written for making Caesar suspected as the liar. But if it is written after Caesar’s time, we must consider, that this text might be written in somewhere in Danmark, and it might be portrayed the coast of Sjelland or some other island.


We must say that there is no evidence, that Caesar ever visited north as Danmark. But when we are talking about his book, we must say that even this book is not probably written by Caesar himself. Or part of that book is maybe written by himself, but there might be many columns, what are written after Caesar’s death. And if he hired some professional writers, those persons might make mistakes on purpose, for making Caesar seem like the liar.


Many writers have also been writing false things, because of they afraid that if the emperor doesn’t like them they would be executed. This fate was faced Cicero, the famous Roman poet, and historian. He was killed by Antonius, and his tongue was nailed to the wall. It’s very sad end for great writer and speaker of history. In this case, we must say, that  Marcus Antonius was not able to handle critics what he faced as the rank of the emperor.


And if the writings of some persons were not satisfied rulers, those men were executed. Even in the modern era, there are people sitting in jail because they have written something, what was uncomfortable for the rulers. When we are talking about leaders of the nations, they sometimes think, that every problem will be handled by arresting journalists and writers. But when we are thinking about the role of media, we must say that there are cases in history, that reporters start to publish texts, what would protect authoritarian and support censorship.


This is called ”official press”. Some countries like that they have freedom of speech, but only persons who have right to publish their texts are the ”official reporters”. In those countries, the press is in the main role to justify the political police control, and arresting what is targeted for the members of the opposition. So the press could also be a part of the authoritarian government and support the persecution what is targeted to political resistance.

Information operation like "Jade Helm" and "Northwood" are the risk for the global security.




Kimmo Huosionmaa

https://sites.google.com/view/operationnorthwood/etusivu

In the beginning, I must say that I know that I write lots of American operations. The reason for that is the information of the United States psychological warfare is easier to get that information from Soviet information campaigns.  Operation “Jade Helm” was the straight copy of Vietnam-age “Operation Northwood" from the 1960’s. That program was a pilot test for the disinformation warfare. The reason why Pentagon launched those operations were, that the leaders of the U.S Military wanted to get the public opinion for support operations in the Far East, and of course, they wanted to hide the massive chemical warfare in that country.


The chemical agent what was used in that operation, was Agent Orange, what is made for agricultural use. That chemical is very common in the normal agriculture, but misuse that chemical will cause cancer. That kind of chemical weapons is so-called “stealth killers". That means that those chemicals don't injure people in the normal way. They cause cancer and the danger of those actions is that chemicals like agent orange are very easy to get. Even if American military leaders meant to kill people with that chemical, they used that component in large areas in that country. And that might cause numbers of cancer cases in that area.  But when we are talking about “Operation Northwood" we must say that those kind of disinformation projects risks are, that they can use to hide war crimes.


But also hide the real reasons for the war. The disinformation warfare is a very dangerous if somebody wants to agitate the hate between the people. If we are talking about those operations, what the USA has done past years and what it has done in the Cold War, we must say that the relationship with United States military and those guerilla movements is not so simple than we think. The threat to the United States has always been right-wing nationalists like Ku Klux Klan, and in 1960’s the problem with the United States was it was grown too strong. The result of too strong military force was that US military was always asked for support some local governments, what made very strong risk for men who served in the military forces.  And the threat of that era was, that some nazi will be the rise in the Presidential position in that land. That’s why the military forces needed the Vietnam War and the loss in the Far East.


Those men who served in the military in the Vietnam war or other wars in the world are justified as the veteran position. But the men who have served with the CIA can’t get veteran benefits and sometimes they can’t even say that they are veterans. But when we are thinking about risks of information warfare, we must realize, that false news might be more deadly than any other weapon in the world. There is the danger that the propaganda-unit might just invent the “news" what they give to the world, and that might cause even the War. But in the information warfare in one risk. There is no need for special equipment for beginning those operations, only the writing program or pencil and papers are needed, and of course, the operator needs the good imagination to make those texts.


And if the source is mentioned to be some bandit, who lives in the jungle the paper and the pencil would grow the strength of that information. Those papers might be set to find in some tourist area, what increases the trust for that information. And of course, somebody can make blogs for some business managers, who will not want to travel to the China. The blog might involve information what is harmful to China, and after that, this person will ever get the visa to that country. The danger of that kind of actions is that if some business manager is in the trip in North Korea, would somebody make the blog for that person's name and that might make the lots of trouble for that person.

What is the reason for crises of European Union?



Eiffel tower

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The European Union is in crises, and the reason for this is populist movement what has been grown in the political field. The reason for the success of those movements has caused because of the freshness of those movements. They all have been quite new parties, and those movements have given new choice for people when they must elect their candidate to the parliament. And why those new movements have got this success. Why old fashion political leaders talked to religious people. Those people were easy to account, and they were homogenize group. That's why the promises were easy to focus to those people who visited in the church.


Religion is not so big thing to younger people, and that's why young voters are separated from old fashion politics. New political movements offer a new choice for the people, and those movements promise some concrete things to the people of nations. Offer what they give is security. Those movements promise that if the European Union builds a wall between it and another world, the people of the union will be safe from terrorists. They forget that if EU builds a wall around it, the cause of that action will be same, what happened to the Roman Empire when it built the wall of Hadrian. Enemies of Rome just escaped another side of the wall, and they could continue their actions against Rome, and that caused as it part of the collapse of the empire.


Why those populistic movements are so popular? They can speak to people, and tell them, what they want to hear. When Greece went to the crisis, the politicians told people, that if there is not the Union, they won't have to pay that money to Greece, and of course, the question was always a big money. Those politicians said, that if that Union will be broke, the people would get something new, like growing social security and more jobs in frontier guards. But when we are talking about medias relationship to politics, we must realize that those new movements are of course something strange in the political field.


New political parties are always defamed by media because actors of the media have already contacts with old political parties. And new actors are a good target for trolling. But why new political movements have risen so fast, even they have not had so-called "official" medias support. The reason is that they use Internet-marketing to collect votes, and basic social media and homepages are very effective tool for marketing platform. That environment can give very much volume to low price marketing. The argument against the new party is sometimes, that they have the only couple of percent supporters, and if someone will give his or her vote to that movement, will the vote get lost.


And new parties have very low marketing budgets if they compile with old political parties. But Internet marketing gives those new parties new channel to their thoughts to mind of the people. And this is the new way to make politics. Today politics must be very careful, what they write on Facebook and other social media. And the social media causes a situation, where the political actor must always be in interplay with people. And that will be a new challenge to democracy. It's not enough that politic leader meets people in some market square. In the Internet politician have a change to meet masses of the people.


This is a question of political culture. Politician must meet masses to get votes in the election day, and the only need is to put people mind that they give that particular number in the ballot. But social media is a very dangerous place for political actors, because there politicians must be very scarp. If they will give answers in drunk that might destroy their career in political field immediately. And if they have something to hide, those things might rise up in Facebook and other social media.

Why media is so effective and it has a great influence in marketing environment?



Kimmo Huosionmaa

The major principle of the economics is that it must keep growing all the time. Only growing economy increases need for material production. And that need is what makes production and brings jobs for people. The only growing economy can offer jobs for people, is a traditional way of thinking. But situations changing. Nowadays robots are working in factories, and the Internet makes old fashion couriers unnecessary. And modern automation causes a situation that growing need for company’s productions doesn’t mean that there will be more jobs to give for human workers.


We can’t expect that economics and markets have endless growing capacity. Sooner or later they will fill with products, and the interests of buying the products will decrease. And that will cause the situation called economic depression. In that situation, the money doesn’t move between actors. Mechanism what causes that situation is that some actors in economic environment will be going to bankruptcy and that will cause domino phenomenon what increases fall of the economic situation.


The most harmful for economics is that trusted actor will go to bankruptcy. If the actor is a bank, that might cause a mass effect, what will fall all economics to depression? The reason of economic catastrophe will be increasing number of unemployed people, what might cause problems with peace of society. When we are talking about information and journalism, they have great influence on the economic situation. Like Adam Smith said “unseen hand controls economics”, and he meant that newspapers and other media have a great role to control economic situation. In this scenario, false news and rumors can cause economic collapse, if somebody just claims that some company has financial problems. That thing may cause the situation when stakeholders will start to sell their ownership of that company.


That will cause the reaction, where company’s value at marketing zone will decrease, and that will make possible to take a power in the company with a minimum price, what allows to make great profits with minimum violence. That false news might call as information operations.  And I believe that that false news has been used when some companies have been bought. When that news begins to decrease the value of the company, somebody can buy ownership of that company, and after the news was rectified, the value of shares will start to grow. And do you know how much profit somebody can get if the value of those shares will rise about 5%? That’s why I believe that that false news has been used for criminal activities, which purpose is to make money in stock market. There is a theory that information operation caused the year 1928 collapse in stock markets.


I don’t know is that true, but is some newspapermen began to inflate problems of some banks, they might cause domino-effect, what broke economic situation all over the United States. If they did that for the purpose, those men might get outstanding financial profits, and that so-called “Wall Street stock market collapse” helped Adolf Hitler to raise a power in Germany. Sometimes I think that false news operation might be controlled by Mafia, what wanted to collapse economies, to share low price condominium in the hands. And of course, that collapse caused many bankruptcies what brought many farms and much of landmass in the hands of Mafia, if they were responsible for that collapse in U.S economic environment. But these are only rumors, and the reason for that economic collapse could be something else.


That case showed to the whole world what power of information in all levels of the state is. Media has an influence on the governmental and non-governmental environment in all worlds, and that’s why it’s very effective weapon. Information warfare is a way of making media. That equipment might everybody buy from the supermarket, and that’s why it is so attractive. Information warrior doesn’t need any special equipment, only skill to write text or manipulate images is enough, to use a media as a powerful psychological weapon.

Why media will handle only a negative part of the life?



Kimmo Huosionmaa


The problem with media is that there will ever be introduced an average person's life. A person who is the main character in documents and movies is always some kind of ultimate version of people what represented of some lifestyle, what is introduced in those programs. Do you think that Pablo Escobar is some kind of an average version of the drug dealer? That man had billions of cash, but does some so-called “street level"'drug dealer that kind of money, or does he even dream about that, when that person hangs around some shopping center and sells some crack-capsules. What made Escobar so frightening person, was his money.


He could hire mercenaries to support his reputation. But I always thought that Escobar was only a shield man for some other actors in that dirty business. If people have money, he could do almost everything, but if he want’s to hire a mercenary, must he have the right relationships. Nobody wants to get smoked that the person has been worked as a mercenary. That’s why they take jobs only from agents who they trust. And being mercenary in somewhere Africa is the little bit different than making murders in normal western State. If a person will smoke that he is an assassin, will he or she punish by the court of law? The line of that kind of people is extremely tough. Those prisoners ever get out from prison.


But in those cases like Escobar, we might see what is the direction, where media sometimes goes. I don't know why they are not writing about guys who were in gangs and after that, they began to live a normal life without any problems. Why the objective of those documents is always so negative? They always begin that kind of problems with interest, but soon after intros, the journalist really begins to show really bad attitude for that case. They just are beginning to find some errors in that case, and sometimes the information what has been given to people is very grotesque.


They bring in front of the public eye some that targets friends, who might be in jail. But they never tell to people, why those people were arrested and what was a crime, where convictions came. And of course, they never tell to people, how long those "criminals" were been in jail. Only thing what is mentioned, has been that those persons are convicted for some crimes. If we see that kind of journalism realistic, we must be naive.


There is always news where drug user brutally killed the people who helped them. But when we are taking a focus in those stories, we must realize that narcotics users might be very dangerous and unpredictable because they have hallucinations. But when we are talking about those cases, there have been only a couple of that kind of cases in the Europe. And didn't anyone told those people, that if somebody uses drugs, he might be blackmail by his fellows to let them in?


And why reporters only take this kind of crimes on the front pages of newspapers? In here I must ask, is the help what came to those persons so altruistic at all? Why they bought a cell phone to that guy? I know that these are the most brutal worlds, what anybody can write, but didn't anybody tell to those people, that money should ever give drug user or alcoholics. They just buy more drugs with that money. When narcotics control the person, he or she might not able to control his or her actions, and that's why those people might be dangerous. But why media tells stories about only those cases, what ended sadly way?

The media is the greatest opportunity and the greatest threat for democracy



Kimmo Huosionmaa

The media is a thing what rises and falls political leaders all around the world. Power of the media is absolutely incredible when political leaders and candidates are making their ideas well known for everybody in the state. Media and media-houses are in a key role when political leaders will share the ideas with the people, whose votes are very important when somebody wants to become the member of the parliament.


If media bans some candidates, that they can't get any marketing time for the ideas, or gives free marketing minutes to other candidates, will that make an influence to all election system? But marketing is much more than only minutes on the TV set. Where those marketing minutes will put are at least so important as a number of minutes on TV. If those minutes go in the middle of programs, what doesn't interest the politician's target group, they don't have any influence for the group where that political person will focus his or her speech.


Banning of a person might happen by many ways. The most hated method is that reporters begin to harass a candidate with some personal stuff. It's the very nasty thing to glance with somebody's medical conditions or behavior in some past things. If that medias quest will face only scorn and underrating it makes that interview very uncomfortable. And in those situations might some people collapse. Sometimes those reporters will use physical violence in those shows.


If some young candidates media-minutes goes in the middle of some evening day shows, those minutes go for nothing. None of the young people will stay in the home in early afternoon. And if some candidates target group will be elder people, the right place to put those expensive minutes is not probably in the middle of rock-concert or something action movies. Those minutes are suitable for young people, who looks for that kind of programs. This is the way how media takes influence to political control. If the media doesn't like some persons, they just ban those candidates, and that makes bad things for their campaigns.


The media is a key element when mistakes and errors on the society will bring to people mind. And medias role is to control public authorities and bringing misuse of authority into public knowledge. But if media gives false information it will become the biggest enemy of democracy what people ever can imagine, and that's why populism is so dangerous. We must remember that the worst dictators in the history, Joseph Stalin, and Adolf Hitler have risen to the leadership of their governments with medias support, and if the media lies to the people, they can't get knowledge, what those men in shadows are actually doing.


And publishing false gallops, will media make new kind of politics. A person who ever make good decisions. If gallops say that 90% of people want something, might most of the politicians take that thing in their program? And that would have a very strong influence for legislative part of the government. Politicians can't just pass 90% of electors, and that's why gallops are so important in the political environment. But is that number right, that's the question? If the number of that preponderance is only 55% the politicians would not follow that group so strongly. But if some actor fakes the number as a 90% that will cause strong movement in the parliament. That's why faking the gallops is the very strong method to take influence to the political movement.
