RUSSIA TIGHTENS INTERNET SUPERVISION
A new law that aims to protect children from harmful on-line content, came into effect in Russia on November 1st. The measures will allow the government to take any sites considered harmful to children offline. And as CCTV reporter Wang Ying explains, residents in Moscow are mixed about what the new law means for Russia. This newly established website began operation on November the 1st in Russia. From it, you can check if a webpage has been banned officially in Russia, or you could report one if you think it contains illegal content. According to the new law, only sites that contain child pornography, or promote drugs or suicide can be shut down. The institution responsible for site monitoring is the Federal Supervision Agency, or Roskomnadzor. But some are afraid that this new law might increase censorship in Russia. Olga, Moscow Resident, said, "There are some controversies. Because it depends on the supervision department to decide whether a website should be closed. Some websites that do not have illegal content may be banned." But there is also evidence showing public support for it. A survey conducted by the pollster Levada Centre in late July indicated that about 62% of those asked supported the idea of a blacklist.From:myutubespace123Views:0 0ratingsTime:02:11More inNews Politics

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Patriotic Veterans, Inc., a 501(c)(4) issue advocacy committee for veterans, today announced it has instructed legal counsel to file a formal complaint with the Federal Communications Commission against KDKA as a result of KDKAs refusal to air a radio spot sponsored by the organization scheduled to begin earlier this week.

Said Jim Nalepa, West Point graduate and combat veteran, We veterans have risked our lives in combat to protect the First Amendment right of free speech for every American citizen including ourselves. Its disgusting that KDKA refuses to run a radio commercial in which we criticized two of Senator Caseys military votes.

Nalepa continued, Our radio spot is presently running on 51 other stations in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. No other station refused to run this spot or questioned its substanceonly CBS affiliate KDKA in Pittsburgh.

We believe this is a classic case of prior restraint and media arrogance. Since it is my understanding that Sen. Caseys campaign has not filed a complaint against our ad to date, KDKA appears to be representing Sen. Caseys interests in this matter.

The two Casey anti-military votes mentioned in the ad were HR 2642 amendment 4817 (roll call 138) on May 22, 2008 which would have limited U.S. offensive military operations in Iraq and made our troops even more vulnerable to terrorist attacks, according to Patriotic Veterans, Inc. The other Casey vote which the ad criticized was his vote against the Semper Fi Amendment in which Casey voted for a $2 million appropriation to the Berkley California City Council after they had prevented U.S. Marine Corps recruiters from recruiting in the city. The amendment was sponsored by Sen. Jim DeMint, S. Con. Res. 70 (roll call 79), March 14, 2008.
