CHINA | «Si la prensa china fuera libre, el #coronavirus no sería una pandemia», sostiene RSF https://bit.ly/2WAev2y

Mucho cuidado con creernos ahora que el modelo chino es el mejor contra el #Coronavirus. La dictadura no solo es peor éticamente que la democracia, también es más ineficaz https://twitter.com/RSF_ES/status/1242393763747692545 …

Nearly 20 years after the U.S. drove the Taliban from power in Afghanistan, the group claims it holds more territory that any time since the war began in 2001. As President Trump says he wants to end the war, FRONTLINE reporter Najibullah Quraishi goes on a dangerous journey inside both Taliban- and ISIS-held territory and exposes the harsh reality that not only is the Taliban once again wielding power, but the threat from ISIS looms large.

A reporter’s emotional journey back to her homeland in Italy, now the global epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak. “I never thought that I would be making a film like this in Italy,” says FRONTLINE correspondent Sasha Achilli. “I feel immensely proud of the way that the Italian doctors are doing everything they can.” Italy’s doctors, she says, are looking at how America is responding now, and finding similarities with how their own country reacted weeks ago. “Doctors [here] are saying, absolutely self-isolate and do it in the interest of yourself. But in the interests of everybody else around you and who you love. Because this is very, very real.”

Great Decisions television series on YouTube

Many participants from libraries to classrooms and houses of worship have asked to share this year’s television series with their broader community during this public health crisis. We have decided to release this season of Great Decisions on YouTube to provide a single link to post online and share with your community.

During this period of isolation, groups across the country are using teleconferencing tools from Google Hangouts to Zoom to continue their discussions online. Please encourage your community to debate, discuss, and decide. In a democracy, it takes an informed public to inform policy.
