Crafty Use of Art Supplies Makes Banksy World Famous

Posted: Nov 20, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>

Banksy has become one of the world's most famous artists thanks to his controversial use of art supplies.

The Bristolian has risen from being a teenage member of the DryBreadZ Crew graffiti gang to an internationally recognised artist whose satirical take on life is respected social commentary.

Banksy's rapid rise began when he started to paint stencil drawings featuring striking and subversive images, which occasionally included anti-establishment and anarchic slogans.

Fellow Bristolian, 3D from dance music group Massive Attack inspired Bansky to enter the world of graffiti and he started painting in the classic New York style of big letters and characters.

The style was not to last as Banksy confessed that he had to dump the technique because it took too much time and left him vulnerable to arrest from the police for defacing public property and vandalism.

The artist soon hit the big time when he moved to London and notable works in the capital include a painting of Charles Manson in a prison suit attempting to hitchhike, while in Shoreditch a British soldier is seen painting an anarchist sign on a wall.

Bansky graffiti may gain popularity with the general public but local authorities are often averse to having overtly political art work on their streets and attempt to remove any new paintings.

Banksy defends his use of art supplies by claiming that graffiti is a way of bringing art and culture to people who would otherwise denied access to exclusive exhibitions and galleries.

"Art is not like other culture because its success is not made by its audience. The public fill concert halls and cinemas every day, we read novels by the millions, and buy records by the billions," he wrote in Wall and Piece.

Banksy's art is not always available on the streets as he has also exhibited his work on both sides of the Atlantic resulting in international fame, which he argues is both a blessing and a curse.

Celebrities are always keen to get their hands on a Banksy as pop star Christina Aguilera bought an original of Queen Victoria as a lesbian and Hollywood actor Brad Pitt and his equally famous wife Angelina Jolie are also big fans.

Despite the global adulation, Banksy has not forgotten his roots as he has helped raise over £45,000 for Bristol Museum when he held an exhibition in the institution in recent times.

Some visitors queued for six hours to enter the exhibition and the acceleration in Banksy's popularity shows no signs of slowing down.

Forensic Accounting: Investigation of Fraud and Criminal Activity in the Modern Business World

Posted: Nov 09, 2008 |Comments: 0
| Views: 1,939 |

]]>

Alarming sums of money are stolen from businesses each year by trusted employees.  It is estimated that in 2008, at least $6 Billion will be lost by businesses as a result of fraudulent activities.  Surprisingly, smaller companies suffer the majority of the losses.  This is due to their lack of funds to implement preventative procedures in concert with a generally stronger trust and more personal relationship with employees.  In order to prosecute those responsible for these crimes, it is important to understand the path leading to the fraud.

Forensic accounting is a rapidly expanding field involving careful investigative work, in depth financial analysis and an understanding of the legal system.  Forensic accountants must think on their feet and work side-by-side with law enforcement personnel in order to solve the puzzles surrounding fraud cases.  Frequently they are required to testify in court as expert witnesses and provide key evidence leading to convictions.  Evidence is gathered from books and other records including computers, hard drives, and email correspondence and computer records.  It is then carefully traced back to where the problem first began.  Forensic accountants act as detectives, lawyers, CPA’s and scientists.  These professionals often have highly developed deductive reasoning skills, familiarity with legal procedures, good writing skills and excellent public speaking skills.  They have the responsibility of convincing a judge and jury that the evidence they have gathered is solid.  Forensic accounting played a large role in convicting Al Capone for tax evasion.  It also figured prominently in exposing the Enron and WorldCom scandals.

As technology improves and the amount of money stolen from companies and corporations grows, the demand for forensic accountants has grown rapidly. Considered to be one of the fastest growing accounting jobs, it is predicted that this profession will be among the top twenty in the next few years.  Schools have begun to offer programs in this field to help meet the strong and ever increasing demand for forensic accountants.

]]>

In the computer age, fraud comes in many forms.  It is much easier for criminals to embezzle money without detection.  This is why forensic accountants typically need advanced computer knowledge.  They must be able to extract evidence from computer hard drives.  Business owners look to forensic accountants to help implement preventative measures.  Many businesses hire these professionals to examine documents and computers regularly so that the chances of a serious problem are minimized.  Forensic accountants also find employment in police departments, law firms and governmental agencies such as the FBI and the IRS.

While working for a law firm, there are a variety of legal disputes that a forensic accountant may assist in.  In divorce cases, assistance is needed in dividing assets.  Disputed assets are often investigated behind the scenes in order to determine the most equitable way to split them as well as determine if both parties are credible.  Forensic accountants also assist lawyers in bankruptcy cases.  Evidence is gathered to ensure that there is no suspicious financial activity surrounding the case.  Copywriting and patent infringement, insurance fraud, personal injury, and construction audits are among the kinds of cases that forensic accountants are often called upon to investigate. Police departments hire forensic accountants for many of the same reasons, especially to gather evidence for prosecution that will stand up in court.

Forensic accounting professionals express a high level of job satisfaction.  The profession typically offers excellent compensation ($100K+/year) and the investigative work is very intellectually challenging.  There is always something new and exciting to work on every day.  It is clearly extremely rewarding to be able to identify those responsible for stealing millions of dollars and in some cases for saving businesses.

Until more educational institutions start offering forensic accounting programs, employers often look for Certified Public Accountants, who are certified in Fraud Examination to fill forensic accounting positions.  It is preferred that the job candidates have accounting experience and a good knowledge of the law along with strong computer science, writing and investigative skills.  Background checks and reference checks are also necessary to ensure that new employees have a clear criminal record and a good reputation in the community.

Forensic accountants are vital to the survival of both large and small companies.  There will always be new work to do as technology advances.  People with an interest in accounting and detective work who are inspired to identify criminal activity and therefore prevent business failures should consider this as a career option.

Solutions for Terrorism in the Arab and Muslim World

Posted: Nov 24, 2009 |Comments: 0

]]>

Hasan A. Yahya, Professor of Sociology

 In all religions, sects and ethnicities there are advocates who disseminate extremely radical, as well as  extremely aggressive, ideas. (The crusades, the Zionists, the Nazis the Bolshevik and Jihadists are examples).  But the number of followers who adopt those ideas differs from one case to another. For example, some Jewish and Christian leaders advocate ideas that are totally at odds with common humanity, with tolerance and acceptance of Other people – indeed, sometimes calling for death to others. But each of these groups had encounters to such perception. For example, in the United States, you find all types of opinions and opposing schools cross religious boundaries come together and criticized extremism. Like ifamericansknew, stopthenato, stopnato, realjews internet webpages, they profess anti-violence and arm races. But the number of followers who espouse their cause is nowhere near as great as those which advocates of some extremist Islamic ideas succeed in winning over. Many political regimes (unfortunately supported by some members of the intelligentsia) lump the members of both groups – advocates and followers – together and deal with them through the state's security apparatus, an approach that only compounds the problem. For although the advocates of violence are dangerous, I believe the security risk they represent is limited. Their message cannot in and of itself push any society to the point reached by a number of Muslim societies today. I also believe that using police methods against them will not produce positive results, instead these practices promote more violence and grouping among rejecters of the status quo government and its forces. You may see examples in Algeria, Yemen, Iran, Turkey and Egypt, etc.,

In the 1950s, Sayed Qutb, the famous Islamic thinker in Egypt, (executed in 1966.) 18 years after the assassination of Hasan al-Banna the initiator of Muslim Brothers in the country. Their ideas survived their death to become, after the merger with the Wahhabi doctrine, the primary ideological source on which most of the radical movements of political Islam draw today. As opposing Arabism led by Jamal Abdul-Nassir. The only way to curtail the influence wielded by the advocates of violence is through a concerted cultural and ideological campaign by enlightened members of the intelligentsia. In the final analysis, however, it is not the advocates of violence but their followers who constitute the cornerstone of the phenomenon known as Islamic terrorism, who mostly young uneducated other than Qur’anic teachings.

In Pakistan, Abul-Ala al-Maududi is similar in thought of the Muslim brothers in theory, while in practice followers of al-Maududi are different in aggression except in Kashmir where injustice prevail in all corners of the country.

 Thinkers and intellectuals from all the Arab sides tried to give solutions for the unrest and the phenomenon of violence. But the problem of failed solutions, is that the political violence is justified in the name of Islam. And governments continue its injustice policies facing violence with harsh violence. Governments may secure temporary calm times, but underneath the aches the movement of violence restart in a more bloody phase. So the question was,  what is it that draws people, particularly young people, in many Muslim societies into the web of advocates who teach radical ideas? Ideas justify violence and call on them to isolate themselves from the course of their own nation in particular, and the human civilization in general.

 In other words, many thinkers believe that justice practices have to be introduced, civil society institutions and organizations have to be supported by governments to create grassroots of justice and equality if such organizations lead to compassion, there is nothing wrong with that. From a humanistic and historical perspective, to understand and sympathize is not to condone, justify or accept but to deal rationally with by recognition that we are dealing with psychiatric patients suffering from a debilitating and dangerous disease, patients who need treatment, not security procedures, violence, coercion and torture in prisons halls.

Promoting understanding, the reactions to social injustice  among the public is the first ingredient in solving terrorism in the Muslim world. The failing governmental policies to serve the masses to help them to live in dignity, promote such violence, and the uncontrolled anarchy of wealth (in most oil producing countries) among the few on the top are some of the obstacles to understanding. Nepotism is another disease in most Arab countries which promote favoritism and absence of justice and equality. We might touch other sources of injustice as well among young people in many Muslim societies which compromise 60 percent of any nation with an unemployment rate reaches 30-45% in some countries, such as the absence of rational civil society institutions based on free well and harmony; the traditional political (irrational) systems of most Arab and Muslim countries; the dependency of most Arab and Muslim countries on foreign aid and consultations;  the absence of rule of law, which increase injustice by using the law to dominate the public; the failure of economic policies to provide everyday food and necessities; the absence of personalities with leadership qualities in most areas combined with ignorance of traditional leadership in combating violence; the enormous gap between the haves and have-nots; not so much the fact that there is a gap as its sheer magnitude; the high percentage of unemployment among the youth and disappearance of fairness from most fields of employment, where favoritism and nepotism count for more than merit. And finally, the divorce between free-thinking and media on one side, and the executive branch of government on the other.

 In conclusion, I think these are some of the problems which need focus which make people angry and lead to violence, rejection, hostility and finally “terrorism” against   political, cultural and strategic governmental plans serves parts and ignore other parts in each society. Such actions from a security perspective do a grave injustice to society and to all the parties involved, including the security institutions themselves. At the end, police methods are no match for phenomena with numerous political, economic, social and cultural dimensions. It is a common knowledge among learned and ignorant people that those who believe in lack of social justice can call loudly for justice through terrorist groups which  are not small in number.

Maximum Profit or Optimum Profit?

The reality is that the publicity-marketing-sales continuum takes more time, effort and money than ever before. And you really don't have a choice. The times have dictated that if you want to thrive now, you must strategize and market and persuade better than ever before. The key is creating optimum profit. Optimum profit is the profit you can feel good about taking, knowing that you have re-invested a part of the total profit back into your business.

This article analyzes the peace proposal recently provided by prominent Israeli (non-government) persons to move the peace negotiation ahead. The author concludes that no proposal for peace would be acceptable without connected (1967 borders), Gaza Strip with the West Bank, a port on the Red Sea near the Port of Eilat , and compensation for the refugees from 1948 and 1967.

Rio de Janeiro: the World Cup, the Olympics and the Favelas

Posted: May 12, 2011 |Comments: 0
|

]]>

Earlier today, ESPN.com published an article by Wright Thompson in which the author exposes the social crisis that the organizers of the World Cup and the Summer Olympics are hoping to neglect. Every big city in the world has two sides to show. Not even the Dubai municipality escapes this truth. But it seems as if there are very few cities in the world where the division between the outcasts and that of the economically privileged citizens is more latent and entangled as in Rio de Janeiro. The legendary beaches of Copacabana fill the pages of what Brazil wants the world to know about its largest city. White sand beaches and clear blue tropical waters at the disposal of the beautiful people lucky enough to bath under the sun; the perfect scenario for movie festivals, fashion shows and an epic Rolling Stones concert. The 2016 Olympic game planners have prepared an 19-page brochure describing the beauty and the prosperity that hosting the games will bring to the city. It mentions programs for educating the children, uplift the economy and even goes on with an eco-friendly clip about protecting the world's largest urban forest. Photos of pristine beaches, blueprints of new stadiums, and other modern facilities to host the fans and the athletes and the delegations, they are all there in the brochures. Not a single word about the favelas, about those dense urban slums that climb up into the steep hills of Rio. Not a word about those precarious communities that exist outside of civilized society. A little fewer than one thousand favelas flourish and decay in the hills of the city. Their habitants are just a couple kilometers away from what many consider to be quite close to paradise, but they are mere spectators of the comedy, the luxury and the extravaganza of another Sin City. The decisions that are made in the city affects them directly, and yet they don't seem to have any sort of participation, any voice. The favelas, like Thompson points out, are the dirty conscience of Rio de Janeiro. It's habitants are confined in an area without formal education, without the protection of police and no social services. There are very few opportunities available in the favelas. Drug trafficking, prostitution and smuggling are two of the more lucrative outsources. This disparity is only mesmerized with violence. In 2010, Rio de Janeiro reported th 4,798 murders. That's about a fourth the number of murders annually in the entire United States. To put things into the right perspective, consider that there are 6 million citizens in Rio. The US population is about 300 million people. So what does this means for the World Cup organizers? Again, like Thompson mentioned in his article, "Rio has less than three years to fix a crisis a century in the making." And there is no answer to the violence. The favelas, some just miles away from the legendary Maracana stadium, that will not only host World Cup games but be where the inaugural ceremony of the Olimpics take place, are run by drug lords and violent traffickers. The government has responded with military presence and the incursion of NAVY SEALS-like military personal and special police brigades on missions to kill drug traffickers. And much anything else that moves or dares to get in their way. The favelas have been war zones. And nothing that has been done up to this point could prevent this two conflicting sides of the city to erupt just when the city hosts the two sporting events that call in the biggest audiences.

World in Action - Waterwell Drilling Rig - china Top Head Drive Drilling System

Edit Article |

Origins
World in Action was the pre-eminent current affairs program produced by Britain's ITV Network in its first 50 years. Along with This Week, Weekend World, First Tuesday, The Big Story and The Cook Report - and the news-gathering of ITN - World in Action gave ITV a reputation for quality broadcast journalism to rival the BBC's output.
For the first 35 years of its existence, ITV had a near-monopoly of television advertising revenue. Roy Thomson, who ran Scottish Television famously described ITV as a "licence to print money". In return for this income, the broadcasting regulator insisted that the ITV companies broadcast a proportion of their programmes as public service TV. Out of this was born the network's reputation for serious current affairs, eagerly grabbed by program makers under Granada's founder Lord Sidney Bernstein.
Some of the dominant figures in 20th century British broadcasting helped to create World In Action, in particular Tim Hewat "the maverick genius of Granada's current affairs in its formative years" and his World In Action successor David Plowright: but also Jeremy Isaacs, Michael Parkinson, John Birt and Gus Macdonald and, its most long-serving executive-producer, Ray Fitzwalter. World In Action trained generations of journalists and, in particular, film-makers. Michael Apted worked on the original Seven Up. Paul Greengrass, who spent ten years on World In Action, told the BBC: "My first dream was to work on World In Action, to be honest. It was that wonderful eclectic mixture of filmmaking and reportage. That was my training ground. It showed me the world and made me see many things." He later told The Guardian: "If there's a thread running through my career it's World in Action - the phrase as well as the programme." Although its rivals produced many memorable programs, it was World in Action "slamming into the subject of each edition without wordy prefaces from a reassuring host-figure" which consistently gained a reputation for the kind of original journalism and film making which made headlines and won major awards. In its time, the series was honoured by all of the major broadcasting awards, including many BAFTA, the Royal Television Society and Emmy Awards.
World in Action's style was the opposite to its urbane BBC rival's, especially to the London BBC. By repute, especially in its early days World In Action would never employ anybody who was on first-name terms with any politician. Gus Macdonald, an executive producer of the programme, said it had been "born brash". Steve Boulton, one of its last editors, wrote in The Independent that the programme's ethos was to "comfort the afflicted - and afflict the comfortable." Paul Greengrass told The Guardian in June 2008 that the chairman of Granada TV once told him: "Don't forget, your job's to make trouble."
World in Action out-lasted all of its contemporaries in ITV current affairs, killed off as the commercial pressures on the network grew with the arrival of multi-channel TV in the UK. Eventually World In Action, too, was removed from the schedules by its own [but by now dramatically different] creator, Granada TV, following pressure from the ITV Network Centre. World In Action, with its worldwide view and coverage, was replaced in the schedules by Tonight. Investigative legacy
From the beginning, and especially from the late 1960s, World In Action broke new ground in investigative techniques. Landmark investigations included the Poulson Affair, corruption in the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad, the exposure of the shadowy and violent far-right group Combat 18, investigations into L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology and, most notably, a long campaign which resulted in the release from prison of the Birmingham Six, six Irishmen falsely accused of planting Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) bombs in Birmingham pubs.
World in Action's appetite for controversy created tension with the Independent Broadcasting Authority (IBA), the official regulator during most of the series run, which had the power to intervene before broadcast. Sir Denis Forman, one of Granada's founders, wrote that there was "trench warfare" between the programme and the industry regulator, the Independent Television Authority (ITA), in the years between 1966 and 1969 as World In Action sought to establish its journalistic freedoms.
The most celebrated dispute was in 1973, over the banning of The Friends and Influence of John L Poulson, the definitive film about the Poulson Affair, itself one of the defining scandals of British political life in the 1960s. Poulson was an architect, who was jailed a year later for corrupting politicians and civil servants to advance his construction business. The regulator, which was then the IBA, banned the film without seeing it and without giving official reasons other than "broadcasting policy". As a protest, Granada broadcast a blank screen - which bizarrely recorded the third highest TV audience of that week. After a public furore which saw newspapers from the Sunday Times to the Socialist Worker unite in condemnation of "censorship", the IBA held a second vote, having by then seen the film. By a single vote, the ban was lifted and the programme, retitled The Rise and Fall of John Poulson, was transmitted on April 30, 1973, three months after it was first scheduled.
In 1980 the programme examined the business practices of the then chairman of Manchester United F.C., Louis Edwards. Edwards ran a wholesale butchery business that supplied schools in Manchester; WIA exposed practices of bribery of council officials and the supply of meat that was unfit for human consumption to such institutions; Edwards' businesses were subsequently prosecuted and lost their contracts.
World in Action tackled the British intelligence services; as well as the Navy over its recruitment practices: senior Navy personnel famously 'door-stepped' the director of the World In Action's film in question. The programme broadcast revelations by whistleblowers from both GCHQ, the government's electronic eavesdropping and surveillance headquarters, and from the Joint Intelligence Committee.
Its most audacious investigation of the intelligence community was perhaps an extended edition in July 1984 titled "The Spy Who Never Was", the confessions of a former MI5 officer, Peter Wright. Spycatcher, Wright's subsequent account of the period when he and colleagues had, as he put it, "bugged and burgled our way across London", revealed what had in effect been a planned coup against the then Labour government of Harold Wilson. Wright appeared to have been in charge of the technical side of things. 'The Wilson Plot', as it became known, was corroborated to varying degrees both before and after the film's transmission in various other books by journalists and in volumes of memoirs by others involved in the conspiracy. Wright's book was the most explosive of them all. Wright, embittered by a still unresolved pension dispute, fled to Australia where the book was written and finally published - to the fury of Mrs Thatcher - with the assistance of the original programme's chief researcher, Paul Greengrass. Publication in Britain was initially banned outright by the government of Margaret Thatcher.
The series was rarely away from the courts and the threat of legal action. The Scientologists tried [and failed] to stop World in Action's broadcasts about them through the courts and In 1980, members of the programme's staff and senior executives at Granada TV announced that they would be prepared to go to prison rather than submit to a House of Lords ruling that the programme reveal the identity of an informant who had supplied WIA with 250 pages of secret documents from the then state-owned steel company British Steel. British Steel was at the time locked in an industrial dispute with its workforce.
In 1995, Susan O'Keeffe, a World in Action journalist, was threatened with prison in Ireland for refusing to reveal her sources. She had investigated scandals within the Irish meat industry in two films in 1991, setting in motion a three-year Tribunal of Inquiry in Dublin, which found that much of her criticism of the industry was substantiated. The Tribunal, though, demanded that she name her informants, and when she refused to do so, she was charged by the Irish Director of Public Prosecutions. The case became a cause clbre in the Republic of Ireland, and in January 1995 she faced trial for contempt of court but was cleared of the charge. She was honoured in the 1994 Freedom of Information Awards for her stand.
In its last few years, the programme was involved in two high-profile libel cases. It won the first (along with The Guardian) against the former Conservative Cabinet Minister Jonathan Aitken, and lost the second, against the high street chain Marks & Spencer.
On April 10, 1995, Jonathan Aitken (himself a former journalist for Yorkshire Television) called a televised press conference three hours before the transmission of a World in Action film, Jonathan of Arabia, demanding that allegations about his dealings with leading Saudis be withdrawn. In a phrase that would come to haunt him, Aitken promised to wield "the simple sword of truth and the trusty shield of British fair play ... to cut out the cancer of bent and twisted journalism." Aitken was subsequently sentenced to 18 months in prison for perjuring himself in the libel case.. World in Action followed the collapse of Aitken's libel case with a special edition whose title reflected the MP's claim to wield the "sword of truth". It was called The Dagger of Deceit. Television techniques
Although the series' lasting reputation is for its investigative work, it also led the way in introducing other techniques to mainstream TV. In 1971, years before reality programming became the staple diet of the TV schedules, World In Action challenged the Staffordshire village of Longnor to quit smoking, a forerunner of many of the popular-challenge documentaries which enjoyed success in the 21st Century reality boom.
In 1984, World In Action caused a sensation by challenging a rising young Conservative Member of Parliament, Matthew Parris, to live for a week on a 26 unemployment benefit payment to test the reality of his own critical views on the unemployed. (Parris subsequently abandoned Parliament for a career as a broadcaster and writer.) The same year, World In Action revealed the tricks behind political oratory by coaching a complete beginner, Ann Brennan, to deliver a speech which won a standing ovation at the annual conference of the Social Democratic Party, using techniques developed by Professor Max Atkinson. The eminent political commentator Sir Robin Day, covering the conference for BBC television, described Mrs Brennan's performance as "The most refreshing speech we've heard so far."
World In Action helped to pioneer the technique of using covert cameras, not just in investigative work but also in social documentary, including, from the earliest days, the treatment of gypsies, the old in care ("Ward F13") and poverty in England. The arrival of high-quality miniature cameras allowed ambitious projects such as Donal MacIntyre's award-winning programmes in October 1996 on the illegal drug trade, and the future Conservative MP Adam Holloway's disturbing reports on the reality of life among the homeless in 1991.
World In Action gave rise to a number of spin-off series, most famously the Seven Up! documentaries which have followed the lives of a group of British people who turned seven years old in 1963. The most recent, 49 UP, was shown in 2005. Michael Apted directed most episodes; parallel series have also started in the last decade in South Africa, the USA and Russia. ITV's popular consumer series, House of Horrors, in which shoddy builders are invited to carry out minor repairs to a house festooned with covert recording devices, originated on World In Action.
More recent current affairs series on other channels, such as the MacIntyre series on BBC and Five, and Channel 4's Dispatches, commissioned by Dorothy Byrne, a former WIA producer, may be seen as having inherited certain aspects of World in Action's hard-hitting journalistic style. World In Action and popular culture
One of the programme's hallmarks was its willingness to embrace popular culture, at a time when its competitors preferred a more highbrow approach. One of the very earliest editions reported on overspending at the Ministry of Defence in the style of a contemporary gameshow, Beat The Clock. The programme was so controversial it was banned from being shown on ITV by the then regulatory body, the Independent Television Authority (ITA); instead, ten minutes of it were shown on the BBC as an act of journalistic solidarity. The gameshow device re-emerged in 1989, when an academic study of the uptake of tax-funded benefits by the middle-class was transformed into a mock quiz show named Spongers, fronted by a well-known star of game formats, Nicholas Parsons.
Popular music played a significant role in WIA's history. An early edition, in 1966, carried a fly-on-the-wall account of daily life aboard one of the then pirate radio ships, Radio Caroline, at a time when the British Government was determined to preserve the radio monopoly of the BBC by driving the "pirates" off the air.
In 1967, a young researcher named John Birt established his early reputation by persuading the rock star Mick Jagger to appear on World in Action to debate youth culture and his recent drug conviction, with Establishment figures, including William Rees-Mogg of The Times, who had written a famous editorial defending the singer. Jagger so enjoyed the experience that he invited the Granada team to film The Rolling Stones at the band's free 1969 concert in Hyde Park, London. The resulting film, The Stones In The Park, was one of the iconic concert films of the Sixties. John Birt rapidly moved on to edit World in Action and eventually run the BBC as its Director-General.
The rise of Thatcherism and the misery of mass unemployment saw WIA examining the phenomenon through the eyes of another emerging band, UB40, in A Statistic, A Reminder (1981), a line taken from one of the band's songs. Six years later, a special edition of the programme was devoted to the Irish rock band U2 and their charismatic front man Bono. Like The Rolling Stones before them, U2 allowed World in Action to film one of their classic concerts in 1987 in Ireland. This footage, shot by the future Hollywood director Paul Greengrass, was shown only once on ITV because of copyright restrictions, although it circulated among fans of the band as a bootleg. A small section of the film was posted on YouTube in 2006. The full documentary was made available on the itv.com website in 2008.
In 1983, Stevie Wonder, at the height of his popularity, gave the programme a musical exclusive when he agreed to let a World in Action crew record him performing an unreleased song, written to help the Democratic politician Jesse Jackson's electioneering, for The Race Against Reagan. Another popular singer, Sting, appeared in a more critical World in Action episode, which questioned the effectiveness of his Rainforest Foundation.
Perhaps the most bruising encounter between WIA and popular entertainment was the 1995 film Black and Blue which featured a covert recording of a performance by the veteran comedian Bernard Manning as the star of a charity function organised by the Manchester branch of the Police Federation, which represents rank-and-file officers. Manning's racist and homophobic performance, loudly applauded by those present, caused outrage when WIA broadcast excerpts, sparking an intense debate about the willingness of British police officers to embrace a diverse culture. Leading contributors Journalists
World in Action employed many leading journalists, among them John Pilger; Michael Parkinson; Gordon Burns; Nick Davies, Ed Vulliamy and David Leigh of The Guardian; Alasdair Palmer of the Sunday Telegraph; John Ware, BBC Panorama's leading investigative reporter; Anthony Wilson, whose second career as a music impresario was immortalised in the feature film 24 Hour Party People; Michael Gillard, creator of the Slicker business pages in the satirical magazine Private Eye; Donal MacIntyre; the writer Mark Hollingsworth; Quentin McDermott, since 1999 a leading investigative reporter for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation; Tony Watson, editor of the Yorkshire Post for 13 years and editor-in-chief of the Press Association from December 2006; and Andrew Jennings, author of Lords of the Rings, who has campaigned vigorously for more than a decade against corruption in international sport.
Two former World in Action journalists uncovered one of the biggest broadcasting scandals of the 1990s. Laurie Flynn, a central figure in the British Steel papers case, and Michael Sean Gillard revealed that large parts of a 1996 Carlton TV documentary, The Connection, about drug trafficking from Colombia, had been fabricated. Flynn and Gillard's expos in The Guardian in May 1998 led to an inquiry and a record 2 million fine for Carlton from the then regulator, the Independent Television Commission (ITC), as well as provoking a passionate debate about truthfulness in broadcast journalism. Presenters
Unusually for a current affairs programme, WIA's standard format was as a voice-over documentary without a regular reporter although a handful of WIA journalists did appear in front of camera, including Chris Kelly, Gordon Burns, John Pilger, Gus Macdonald, Anthony Wilson, Nick Davies, Adam Holloway, Stuart Prebble (who later became the programme's editor), Mike Walsh, David Taylor and Donal MacIntyre. Guest presenters were used on rare occasions, among them Jonathan Dimbleby, Sandy Gall, Martyn Gregory, Sue Lawley and Lynn Faulds Wood. Perhaps its most celebrated guest presenter was the distinguished American anchorman Walter Cronkite, who came out of retirement to cover the 1983 British General Election for the series.
A small group of narrators delivered the vast majority of WIA's voice-overs. The science presenter James Burke did a number of commentaries on early editions of the programme. Other main contributors included David Plowright, Chris Kelly, Jim Pope, Philip Tibenham and Andrew Brittain. Among the guest narrators who contributed occasional commentaries were the popular actors Robert Lindsay and Jean Boht. Producer-Directors
The series was known for its gritty visual style, almost always shot on location, and a number of its producer-directors went on to work on major film projects. Those working on the series in its early years included Michael Apted, later to direct Coal Miner's Daughter, Gorillas in the Mist and the James Bond film The World is not Enough, as well as the Seven Up! documentaries, and Mike Hodges, who went on to direct Get Carter and Flash Gordon. Later, Paul Greengrass, director of the feature films United 93, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum and of the drama-documentaries Bloody Sunday and The Murder of Stephen Lawrence, cut his directing teeth on World in Action. According to The Guardian, Greengrass was listed in 2007 as "the 28th smartest" person in Hollywood.. Leslie Woodhead, director of The Stones In The Park, the award winning A Cry From The Grave, many "Disappearing World" films and also regarded by many as a founder of the drama-documentary movement, worked on World in Action for many years as a producer-director and executive. Long-time World in Action alumni who went on to direct and produce Granada's international award-winning "Disappearing World" films include Brian Moser, its instigator and original producer, and Charlie Nairn.
Among the more recent generation of film-makers to emerge from World in Action were Alex Holmes, who became editor of the BBC2 documentary strand Modern Times and went on to write and direct the Bafta-winning dramatised documentary series Dunkirk for the BBC; and Katy Jones, a former WIA producer, who became a key collaborator with the screen writer Jimmy McGovern as a producer on his award-winning drama-documentaries Hillsborough and Sunday. Broadcasters
WIA was a starting point for several key programme-makers who went on to major roles in British broadcasting. John Birt became Director-General of the BBC, having been Programme Controller of the London ITV franchise LWT, where he created the company's current affairs flagship, Weekend World.
Several WIA staffers were promoted to significant roles in Granada Television, among them David Plowright, who became its chairman and later went on to become deputy chairman of Channel 4. Steve Morrison became chief executive at Granada. Gus Macdonald held the same role at another ITV franchise, Scottish Television.
Stuart Prebble, a former editor, became chief executive of ITV, and Steve Anderson became Head of News and Current Affairs for that channel. Both have since moved on to the independent production industry. Ian McBride, who led the team which made the Birmingham Six programmes, became Managing Editor of Granada TV, and was Director of Compliance for ITV until 2008.
Dianne Nelmes, who worked as a researcher and executive producer of WIA, was the founding editor of Granada TV's hugely successful This Morning with Richard and Judy and went on to head daytime and factual programmes at ITV.
Dorothy Byrne, a former WIA producer, is Head of News and Current Affairs at Channel 4. Julian Bellamy, who worked as a young researcher on one of WIA's last big foreign investigations - about arms deals between Britain and Indonesia - later headed Channel 4's entertainment channel E4 and was programme controller of the BBC digital channel BBC Three before re-joining Channel 4 as its Head of Programming in the spring of 2007. TV production companies
A number of WIA veterans went on to set up and run their own independent television production companies. John Smithson and David Darlow, who set up the production company Darlow Smithson, responsible for the feature films Touching the Void and Deep Water and many factual TV programmes including Black Box and The Falling Man, worked together on WIA. Claudia Milne founded twentytwenty tv, which made a successful current affairs strand for ITV, The Big Story, as well as popular factual series such as Bad Boys' Army' on ITV and That'll Teach 'Em on Channel 4. Brian Lapping set up the much-garlanded Brook Lapping company, which made The Death of Yugoslavia and many other landmark contemporary history programmes. Stuart Prebble, a former editor of World In Action, runs Liberty Bell, best known for the popular Grumpy Old Men series on the BBC. Another former editor, Steve Boulton, started an eponymous company, which made Young, Nazi & Proud, a Bafta-winning profile of the young British National Party activist Mark Collett.
One of the biggest British independent production companies is All 3 Media, which controls several other leading companies, including Lime Pictures, formerly Mersey Television, makers of Hollyoaks. It is run by Steve Morrison, a former WIA producer. Political connections
Although in its early days World In Action was reputed never to employ anyone who was on first-name terms with any politician, a number of British Parliamentarians since have World In Action on their curriculum vitae. The most recent is the Conservative MP Adam Holloway, elected to the House of Commons in 2005. The British Cabinet Minister Jack Straw worked on World in Action as a researcher, as did Margaret Beckett who served as Tony Blair's last Foreign Secretary. Chris Mullin, Labour MP for Sunderland South, played a major role in the programme's campaign on behalf of the Birmingham Six. Gus Macdonald, now Baron Macdonald of Tradeston, and from 1998 to 2003 a Government Minister, was formerly an executive on the programme. John Birt (by then ennobled as Baron Birt), was personal advisor to the British Prime Minister Tony Blair between 2001 and 2005. Editors
Editors of the programme (sometimes with the title of Executive Producer) were, successively, Tim Hewat, Derek Granger, Alex Valentine, David Plowright, Jeremy Wallington, Leslie Woodhead, John Birt, Gus Macdonald, David Boulton, Brian Lapping, Ray Fitzwalter, Allan Segal, Stuart Prebble, Nick Hayes, Dianne Nelmes, Charles Tremayne, Steve Boulton and Jeff Anderson. Anderson also became editor of World in Action's replacement Tonight, before becoming Head of Current Affairs at ITV in 2006. Mike Lewis, a former WIA producer, was appointed editor of Tonight in October 2006. Academic connections
Professor Brian Winston, Pro-Vice Chancellor (External Relations) at the University of Lincoln, who has also held leading posts at the Universities of Westminster, Cardiff, Pennsylvania State and New York, was a researcher and producer in the early series of World in Action.
Ray Fitzwalter, WIA's longest-serving editor and the man behind the ground-breaking Poulson investigations, became a Visiting Fellow at the University of Salford School of Media, Music and Performance.
Gavin MacFadyen, who worked on early series of World in Action as a producer-director and was best known for his under-cover human rights films, was made a Visiting Professor at City University in 2005. He is also Director of the Centre for Investigative Journalism. David Leigh, who made Jonathan of Arabia, the film which provoked Jonathan Aitken's self-destructive libel action, was made Britain's first Professor of Reporting at City University, London, in September 2006. Camera work
Although a great many director/producers, journalists and editors passed through the programme, one cameraman played an overwhelming role in shaping the appeal of the series. George Jesse Turner, born on the Lancashire coast, close to Granada's roots, served on the programme from 1966 until its end. By his own count, he shot the principal footage for some 600 of its 1,400 editions, as well as filming all of Michael Apted's documentaries in the Seven Up! series. Turner was shot himself - in the backside - by an Israeli bullet whilst he and Allan Segal were filming a clash between Fatah guerrillas and the Israeli Army in 1969. Shortly before he retired from Granada, Turner was honoured by Bafta in 1999 for his work as a documentary cameraman.
Among the many cameramen who also contributed to WIA was Chris Menges, who went on to become a distinguished cinematographer - Kes, The Killing Fields and The Mission are among his credits - and a film director in his own right, on features such as A World Apart. Title sequence
The programme's distinctive identity owed much to its striking title sequence. The music, based on a descending series of organ chords, was called Jam for World in Action and is usually credited to Jonathon Weston, though the American musician Shawn Phillips disputes this. He has posted his claim of authorship on YouTube. The programme's logo, and the centrepiece of its titles, was the Leonardo da Vinci drawing, the Vitruvian Man. Controversy
In August 1978 World in Action aired reports from the United States that microwaves were dangerous and caused cancer which later proved unfounded. This fallacy was encouraged and further reinforced which resulted in the compounding of peoples fear that these appliances were dangerous. UK microwave sales plummeted immediately after the documentary aired. Potential purchasers were particularly anxious that radiation would somehow escape through the oven walls or door. External links
