German Men’s Rights Advocates And Academics Join Voices In Criticizing Media Bias +

By Robert O'Hara: Recently a pair of German academics, along with Men’s Rights advocate Arnie Hoffman, composed and co-signed an open letter containing bold criticism of Germany’s unchecked gender bias, which they addressed to that country’s news media. Hoffman, along with co-authors Professor Dr. Günter Buchholz and Dr. Alexander Ulfig, published the letter on January 9  on Hoffman’s popular Men’s Rights blog titled “Genderama.” The letter has been reprinted in several news outlets in Germany, as well as in other European news outlets and on Antimisandry.com, a men’s rights website based in the UK.

The letter, which attracted an additional 30 signatures, including those of a dozen credentialed academics and media experts, echoes many of the same criticisms concerning media bias that is heavily slanted towards feminist ideology that are put forth on a regular basis by Men’s Rights Activists worldwide.

Following is an English translation of this letter:

“For a balanced coverage policies on gender equality – Open Letter to the German Press”

Today Professor Dr. Günter Buchholz, Dr. Alexander Ulfig and I [Arne Hoffman] offer for the use of other websites the following open letter addressed to the attention of the German press:

We, the signatories of this open letter, are writing to you because we are concerned about reporting policies in German mainstream media on the subject of gender equality. For years, the public has been confronted, almost daily, with very one-sided articles on gender equality policy, most particularly on the topic of “the women’s quota”

Men’s Issues & Music – The Notorious B.I.G

By Ty Henry: The second installment of this series features the late Christopher Smalls, a legend known by his interchangeable monikers Biggie Smalls and Notorious B.I.G., and widely considered one of the top five most influential rappers in hip-hop history, and among the genre’s most important and groundbreaking figures. Indeed, his influence even today befits his imposing 6’3”, 280lb frame.
Entitled “Suicidal Thoughts,” this recording off his morosely-titled debut album Ready To Die is the most stark, haunting and realistic treatment of male suicide maybe ever recorded.

Data Shows Alarming Rate Of Suicide, Murder In UK Jails + Sara Ylen False Rape Claim Shows Ease With Which Innocent Men Convicted

Official figures show that the number of suicides and murders has reached its highest levels in British prisons.
UK BANNED Press TV: Statistics gathered by the Prison Reform Trust (PRT) and released by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) show that there were four alleged murders in prisons in England and Wales in 2013, the highest rate since 1998.
The figures also indicate that 70 deaths, apparently self-inflicted, were committed in British jails, the highest number since 2008.
Moreover, the suicide rate among male prisoners is rising year on year with five male prisons recording three self-inflicted deaths each. This is while the female prisoners self-harm and suicide attempts seem to have fallen due to safety measures introduced in 2007.

Dean Esmay: This classic essay, read by its author, was flagged as “Hate Speech” on YouTube within hours of it being uploaded. A revised version of that video noting the censorship effort has been uploaded, and those who wish to fight the censors who marked this as “hate speech” are encouraged to mirror it. Here it is:

By Nurdy Dancing: There was a time in the history of my country, when an entire demographic group was regularly pushed aside and disregarded – legally and socially. That group had some but not all of the rights that were granted to the rest of society and the rights they did have were ignored and denied with shocking regularity. Each member of the lower class was socially valued by how well they were liked and how useful the were to their superiors, the privileged class.

THE RETAIL DEATH RATTLE

“I was part of that strange race of people aptly described as spending their lives doing things they detest, to make money they don’t want, to buy things they don’t need, to impress people they don’t like.” - Emile Gauvreau

The Burning Platform: If ever a chart provided unequivocal proof the economic recovery storyline is a fraud, the one below is the smoking gun. November and December retail sales account for 20% to 40% of annual retail sales for most retailers. The number of visits to retail stores has plummeted by 50% since 2010. Please note this was during a supposed economic recovery. Also note consumer spending accounts for 70% of GDP. Also note credit card debt outstanding is 7% lower than its level in 2010 and 16% below its peak in 2008. Retailers like J.C. Penney, Best Buy, Sears, Radio Shack and Barnes & Noble continue to report appalling sales and profit results, along with listings of store closings. Even the heavyweights like Wal-Mart and Target continue to report negative comp store sales. How can the government and mainstream media be reporting an economic recovery when the industry that accounts for 70% of GDP is in free fall? The answer is that 99% of America has not had an economic recovery. Only Bernanke’s 1% owner class have benefited from his QE/ZIRP induced stock market levitation.

The $23 Trillion Credit Bubble In China Is Starting To Collapse – Global Financial Crisis Next?

By Michael Snyder: Did you know that financial institutions all over the world are warning that we could see a "mega default" on a very prominent high-yield investment product in China on January 31st?  We are being told that this could lead to a cascading collapse of the shadow banking system in China which could potentially result in "sky-high interest rates" and "a precipitous plunge in credit".  In other words, it could be a "Lehman Brothers moment" for Asia.  And since the global financial system is more interconnected today than ever before, that would be very bad news for the United States as well.  Since Lehman Brothers collapsed in 2008, the level of private domestic credit in China has risen from $9 trillion to an astounding $23 trillion.  That is an increase of $14 trillion in just a little bit more than 5 years.  Much of that "hot money" has flowed into stocks, bonds and real estate in the United States.  So what do you think is going to happen when that bubble collapses?

The bubble of private debt that we have seen inflate in China since the Lehman crisis is unlike anything that the world has ever seen.  Never before has so much private debt been accumulated in such a short period of time.  All of this debt has helped fuel tremendous economic growth in China, but now a whole bunch of Chinese companies are realizing that they have gotten in way, way over their heads.  In fact, it is being projected that Chinese companies will pay out the equivalent of approximately a trillion dollars in interest payments this year alone.  That is more than twice the amount that the U.S. government will pay in interest in 2014.
