The "Live Too Late" news team may not be the most punctual, but fortunately they never let the facts get in the way of reporting (or re-creating) the story. This week, intrepid reporter Jesse Martinez-Coffee (Bryan Safi) leads his crew to the site of an exploded fire hydrant. By the time this eye-witless bunch arrives a few days later, however, the water has long since dried up. No matter. Watch Jesse and his put-upon producers do whatever it takes to get the scoop.

A married footballer named on Twitter as having an injunction over an alleged affair with a reality TV star has been named in Parliament by Lib Dem MP John Hemming as Ryan Giggs.Mr Hemming named him during an urgent Commons question on privacy orders.Using parliamentary privilege to break the court order, he said it would not be practical to imprison the 75,000 Twitter users who had named the player.Earlier the High Court again ruled that the injunction should not be lifted.Parliamentary privilege protects MPs and peers from prosecution for statements made in the House of Commons or House of Lords.Addressing MPs, Mr Hemming said: "Mr Speaker, with about 75,000 people having named Ryan Giggs it is obviously impracticable to imprison them all."In court, Mr Justice Eady rejected a fresh application by Sun publisher News Group Newspapers to discharge the privacy injunction.The judge said: "The court's duty remains to try and protect the claimant, and particularly his family, from intrusion and harassment so long as it can."Lib Dem MP John Hemming was fully protected by parliamentary privilege. Media organisations have only qualified privilege which means they do not have an absolute right to report what an MP says in Parliament.In reality though once an MP says something in Parliament it is very difficult to stop that becoming widely known.News organisations were torn between their duty to observe a court order and their obligation to viewers, listeners and readers.Once some news organisations started publishing Ryan Giggs's name, other news organisations agreed that it would be unrealistic to pretend that the injunction had any purpose or would be maintained beyond the afternoon.On Sunday, a Scottish paper named Mr Giggs as being the footballer identified on Twitter.

Who cares about Arnold?? I feel very sorry for Maria Shriver and most sorry for all the children involved in the mess, but it shouldn’t be dominating the national news. Adultery, sadly, occurs frequently. Shriver is not the first nor will she be the last cuckolded spouse.
But there is real news going on all over the planet that is getting less coverage as the media hounds the other woman, Arnold himself (who cares about him anyway.

Two years after reporting the Peabody Award-winning Vanguard episode, "The OxyContin Express," correspondent Mariana van Zeller discusses the ongoing battle in Florida to regulate or limit sales of prescription pills, and the struggle for sobriety that one man she interviewed for the piece has faced in the time since.
In this season's premiere episode, van Zeller tracks OxyContin trafficking further up the east coast to Boston, where the high cost of black market pills has fueled a dramatic increase in addiction to cheaper heroin. "Gateway to Heroin" premieres Monday, June 20 at 9/8c on Current TV.

A number of friends of Vanguard (FOV?) are working on film and book projects -- and the fundraising that is always part of independent media-making. Anyone here looking to become a patron of the documentary arts?
Here are a few noteworthy efforts being made by friends and former colleagues that could use some extra support:
Fever Dreams, a collection from photojournalist Jeff Antebi. Jeff's photos from Afghanistan and Juarez have appeared on Current.com.
Waited For, a documentary by Nerina Penzhorn (a VC2 alum) about South African lesbians who adopt across racial lines.

This is the first official trailer for Andrew Rossi’s Sundance-screened journalism doc Page One: Inside The New York Times.
In the tradition of great fly-on-the-wall documentaries, the film deftly gains unprecedented access to the New York Times newsroom and the inner workings of the Media Desk.
The synopsis states:
With the internet surpassing print as our main news source and newspapers all over the country going bankrupt, Page One chronicles the transformation of the media industry at its time of greatest turmoil. Writers like Brian Stelter, Tim Arango and the salty but brilliant David Carr track print journalism's metamorphosis even as their own paper struggles to stay vital and solvent, while their editors and publishers grapple with up-to-the-minute issues like controversial new sources and the implications of an online pay-wall. Meanwhile, rigorous journalism is thriving--Page One gives us an up-close look at the vibrant cross-cubicle debates and collaborations, tenacious jockeying for on-record quotes, and skillful page-one pitching that brings the most venerable newspaper in America to fruition each and every day.This is the first official trailer for Andrew Rossi’s Sundance-screened... more

Oscar-nominated documentary-maker Tim Hetherington, co-creator of the Sundance-winning documentary “Restrepo," was killed in the besieged city of Misurata, Libya, covering fighting between Muammar Gaddafi’s forces and the opposition. A British citizen who lived in New York, Hetherington had covered conflicts with sensitivity in Liberia, Afghanistan, Darfur and, in recent weeks, Libya. Hetherington was in Libya to continue his multimedia project highlighting humanitarian issues during times of war and conflict.
Photo-journalist Chris Hondros, a US Pulitzer finalist who worked for Getty Images, was also killed. Hetherington and Hondros were among eight to 10 journalists reporting from Tripoli Street in Misrata. When shooting broke out, they took shelter against a wall, which was hit by fire.
“Restrepo” won the 2010 Grand Jury Prize for Documentary at Sundance, and was a 2011 Oscar Nominee for Best Documentary, Features. The movie is a stunning chronicle of one U.S. platoon, which was posted in one of the most dangerous valleys in Afghanistan. The film was made as part of Hetherington’s ongoing mission to bring the hardships of war into the public eye.
This article also presents “Diary,” one of Hetherington’s most recent works. “Diary” is a documentary short film that presents a dreamlike composition of insightful juxtapositions about his war experiences, composed of carefully conceived montages and almost inchoate sounds. It is similar in spirit to his impressionistic documentary short “Sleeping Soldiers” of 2009.
This piece includes a number of color photographs, the official trailer for “Restrepo” and Hetherington’s two documentary short films, “Diary” and “Sleeping Soldiers.”

Two award-winning photographers have been killed while covering the conflict in the Libyan city of Misrata.
40-year-old Briton Tim Hetherington was working for Vanity Fair and 41-year-old US photographer Chris Hondros working for Getty was also killed, and two others, including Briton Guy Martin, were injured.
Mr Hetherington, co-directed the Oscar-nominated war documentary Restrepo. Mr Hondros won the Robert Capa Gold Medal for war photography.
Mr Hetherington's friend James Brabazon, who worked with him on Restrepo and had been e-mailing him right up until his death, said: "He was extremely talented, experienced and dedicated."
He explained why Mr Hetherington was working for Vanity Fair magazine in Libya: "He went there for humanitarian reasons. He went there to shed light on a very confusing situation."
In a statement on the magazine's website, his family said: "It is with great sadness we learned that our son and brother, photographer and filmmaker, Tim Hetherington was killed in Misrata, Libya, by a rocket-propelled grenade."
His family said he would be "forever missed".
"Tim will be remembered for his amazing images and his Academy Award-nominated documentary Restrepo."
They added: "Tim was in Libya to continue his ongoing multimedia project to highlight humanitarian issues during time of war and conflict."
Vanity Fair magazine said Mr Hetherington was "widely respected by his peers for his bravery and camaraderie" .
In a recent entry on Twitter, Mr Hetherington described "indiscriminate shelling" by pro-Gaddafi forces, who have been battling rebels trying to end the rule of long-time leader Col Muammar Gaddafi.
Mr Brabazon said Mr Hetherington very last Twitter message mentioned that there was "no sign of Nato".
He said: "Although it's an oxymoron to say it, Tim was a very cautious war reporter. He knew the risk but he decided to take them in order to cover the story."
Mr Hondros was based in New York for Getty Images.

Reports of a U.S. “death squad” in Afghanistan, complete with the publication of gory photographs, have failed to attract the intense political or media attention afforded a previous war scandal — the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib.
In 2004, CBS News broadcast an array of photographs showing American jail guards abusing Iraqi detainees. The most famous: a forced pyramid of naked, humiliated prisoners. The depictions touched off an avalanche of media coverage. In Congress, liberals called for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld. Democrats launched inquiries and held a string of well-covered hearings.
In recent months, another wartime embarrassment has emerged. The Army charged five soldiers with murder in the deaths of Afghan civilians in what amounted to a “death squad.” The German magazine Der Spiegel published several digital photos of soldiers posing with the dead last month.
Yet the U.S. media have given relatively little coverage, and no one in Congress has called for Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates to quit, planned hearings or raised questions at budget hearings.

How can you justify the "humanitarian" war with Libya with the bad press in Afghanistan? In addition, drones keep killing innocent civilians, women and children in Pakistan, even 2 US SOLDIERS were killed a few weeks ago by a drone. 9/11 Truth doesn't get any media attention either, except smear campaigns. Can't bury your head in the sand forever, unless you want to get us all thrown in a FEMA Camp.
We're already being prepped for tyranny through the airports and TSA. Can't happen here? It already has. The media is on the payroll; they're muckraking scum. That's why I know Wikileaks was an inside job, b/c look at all the media Agent Assange was getting. Only Der Spiegel, a German paper, covered it. Shame on you media!

Like a recurring nightmare, the Anti-Defamation League is back, this time with over 100 billboards in Greater Boston promoting the group’s “anti-bullying” program. As we’ll see, the real bully is the national ADL.
Recall that a few years ago the ADL’s alleged anti-bias program, “No Place for Hate,” was tossed out (NoPlaceforDenial.com) by Watertown, Arlington, Bedford, Belmont, Easton, Lexington, Medford, Needham, Newburyport, Newton, Northampton, Peabody, Somerville, Westwood, and the Massachusetts Municipal Association.
It has long conspired with Turkey – which bullies its ethnic and religious minorities, journalists, and dissidents – to deny the Armenian genocide of 1915-23 committed by Turkey, and to bully Congress into not bringing an Armenian genocide resolution to a fair vote.
The ADL, of course, promotes Holocaust recognition and reacts vociferously against perceived acts of anti-Semitism. Yet it displays gross insensitivity by collaborating with a major human rights violator, Turkey, to block recognition of another ethnic group’s genocide. Can such an organization be trusted to design humane, fact-based programs, whether about anti-bullying or called “No Place for Hate”? The answer is obvious.
And suppose a school system adopts the ADL’s alleged anti-bullying curriculum. Sooner or later, students and parents will discover that it was created by a group that doesn’t practice what it preaches. Duplicity is not a value that schools should be teaching.
Let’s be frank: The ADL has a political agenda. Fortunately, since every Massachusetts school district was required to adopt an anti-bullying curriculum by January 1, the state has many fine such programs that, unlike the ADL’s, aren’t politically motivated.Like a recurring nightmare, the Anti-Defamation League is back, this time with over... more

I found this site the other day and found it amusing, sad, and infuriating. After having to deal with fear-mongers, misinformants, and just plain crackpots online such as some here on Current, this site came as something of a relief and revelation as to where many people were getting their (mis)information.
*******************************************************************
This Wall of Shame is being assembled by various people, many of whom are on the ground in Japan as residents, not temporarily assigned journalists, who are sick of the sensationalist, overly speculative, and just plain bad reporting that has gone on since the Tohoku quake in Japan on March 11. We feel that contacting each and every publication and reporter every time a bad report shows up independently is not effective, and it is our sincere hope that this will encourage journalists to aspire to a higher (some would say minimal) level of responsibility in their reports.
Severity of Offense scores
1 - 2: Probably unintentional, and based on bad info that seemed legit
3 - 4: Not malicious, just misunderstanding of the situation
5 - 6: Reporting without checking easily-confirmed facts; lazy as opposed to malicious OR just dumb fluff piece using human tragedy as a background.
7 - 8: No fact checking; printing rumours as fact; sensational story more important than actual truth
9 : Fear mongering.
10 : Hysterical fear-mongering along with racial/cultural/political bias
11 : Satan
Some choice examples:
*Gordon Rayner and Martin Evans - 9
The Telegraph (London)
Sensational headline - "Just 48 hours to avoid 'another Chernobyl'" - based on quotes from French bureaucrat, not a nuclear expert. Quotes from actual nuclear expert, saying Fukushima situation is in fact 'not like Chernobyl,' buried in third-last paragraph.
*Pieter Huyberechts - 7
Het Nieuwsblad, De Standaard (Belgium)
"Japanese don't know what's happening"
[condescending]
"They vaguely had heard about 'something bad' happening in Sendai. When I show them pictures of the carnage caused by the tsunami they open their eyes in surprise. Nobody seems to realize the fact that a life threatening radioactive cloud is heading their way."
[sensational, condescending, insufficient research]
*BBC News Website - 7
Pic 5 of 20 - "In Sendai the full scale of the disaster could be seen from the air. Few buildings remain standing in the city that was home to some million people." Accompanying a picture of Minami Sanriku.
Suggesting that a city of a million people has been almost completely wiped out and accompanying it with a picture of a town of 20,000 people whilst there are countless BBC journalists on the ground in Sendai is grossly irresponsible.
*Your World With Neil Cavuto - 5
FOX TV
Screen graphic showing the nuclear power plants in Japan; includes one called "Shibuya Eggman" which is actually a niteclub in downtown Tokyo!
*Virginia Wheeler - 9
The Sun (UK)
Using paranoic Tokyo shut-in as sole source; Photo of "crowded" Tokyo airport that could have been taken in Golden Week; implying that face masks are related to radiation and not pollen allergies; obvious fear mongering and misinformation.
*CNN (US) - 9
CNN television in the U.S. has been showing on-screen headline banners that are unnecessarily alarmist. From just this morning:
Radiation Could Reach US Friday.
Nuclear Cooling Has Failed.
*John Vidal and Damian Carrington - 6
Guardian (UK)
Quoting a Greenpeace-sponsored "expert" and another expert on past Japanese government coverups, and TEPCO lies, to conclude: " The Japanese government has always tended to underplay accidents. At the moment the Japanese claims of safety are not to be believed by anyone." and claiming there are no radiation levels being provided.
*BILD Zeitung (Germany) - 9
Headline titeling "Atomic Horror" mit 4 (!) exclamation marks. The picture on the front shows a person with gasmask/some suit against radioactive pollution. In the background a devastated landscape is shown. On first sight it looks like a nuclear desert, however it is a picture from the destruction caused by the Tsunami. On the next pages they ask: "And what´s up with the Sushi in the restaurants. Can we still eat it"?
*Tim Willcox - 8
BBC News
Tim Willcox insinuating Tokyoites wearing masks due to radiation fears when it is really due to the fact that it`s cedar pollen season which affects many people in Tokyo.
*Edgar Galicia - 10
TVAzteca Noticias
This reporter and his team made wrong translations from Japanese to Spanish. For example at minute 00:18 the Japanese man says "Please stop recording my face" and the news translated as "these are the remains of my house".
In another part at 2:03 there is a Japanese lady saying "here we make simulations (for earthquake) every year " and they translated as "we will never forget this"
*Bill Kaufman - 8
The Calgary Sun
Interviews a man who has family "trapped" without food, in Northern Chiba, which they make out to be closer to the epicenter of the tragedy than it was. Liberal doses of all of the issues - nuclear holocaust, no food or supplies. Also misrepresents attribution of the voluntary evacuations for US and British citizens as being from radiation, where as they are travel warnings due to disruptions in Tokyo.
Also use of the word "trapped" in the title. If they are in Chiba, can't they simply hop on over to Narita?
*Chris Hogg - 5
BBC News Website - Asia Pacific
"Again it is the stalwart exterior that is on show, but you have to wonder how much uncertainty there is behind the mask. As a foreigner in Japan, that is a question you'll almost never get an answer to."
Stereotyping based on assumptions, not facts.
*Hayden Cooper - 5
ABC TV (Australia) Midday News When trying to hype up a story with the byline "Radioactive food fears grow in Japan" used footage of food vendors in Ame-mura (clearly showing the sign above the street in Japanese).
Only problem is that this street is in Osaka (western Japan) nowhere near Fukushima and any food production sites that may be affected by radiation.
Also conveniently glosses over that fact that food and milk products from any of the affected areas in Fukushima have already been quarantined and are not for sale in any region.
*David Gutnick - 10
CBC Radio /The Current
Gutnick travelled to Horoshima determined to establish a link between radiation poisoning from the Hiroshima bombing and the potential for radiantion poisoning at the Fukushima nuclear station. He interviewed a few citizens who, although painfully polite, brushed off his nonsense with comments about the bombing being an act of war and whereas the ongoing difficulty at Fukushima was an unfortunate failure resulting from the force of nature. A few seemed to be offended that he would attempt the equation, and from the hysterical tone that crept into his voice, it was clear that Gutnick found their common-sense replies offensive.
*Bill O'Reil & FOX news - 7
Fox has been using the word "nuke" instead of nuclear. They constantly called the nuclear facilities "nuke plants" which gives a much worse connotation. If you google: fox Japan nuke, you can find tons of stuff. It was their standard practice to use the word nuke instead of nuclear
Also, when it was being reported about the possible meltdown, FOX kept using the word "likely"
