Dear Dimitri, I have been an investigative journalist in years past, I have produced, directed, and written documentaries, and films with high caliber artists, musicians, movie stars. I too rejected legacy media matrix in favor of Truth. I have watched your youtube stream for about 1 year, and I am particularly grateful for your work and the selfless manner in which you approach each adventure, subject matter, and especially the manner in which you uncover, and reveal the essence of Truth in the Mid-East. In fact, I'm surprised youtube hasn't censored your Zionist expose', and the very good work you have done reporting atrocities of the innocent Palestinian citizenry, and the genocidal bloodshed the IDF/Israeli/zionists are committed to on a daily basis. Please continue to do what you do, you are highly valued.

I so appreciated the interview of the senior figure of the Hezbollah. It was so informative. Giving a voice to these people can only help. Months ago I had seen an interview of the political figure of the Houtis and I had been amazed by what I heard, certainly not what we are told in the mainstream media.

The brand of journalism utilized by MSM outfits, from CBC on the supposedly left of the spectrum to the National Post on the right, by using too much of officially defined, politically prescribed and partisan "fairness, balance and objectivity" have managed to render themselves irrelevant and obsolete for the majority of the population. Mr. Journalist can take that to the bank!

"Mr Journalist" should at least have first found out whom he was attempting to disparage. Had he done so, he'd have known there was no chance of him emerging from this unhurt. For I know of no one who could take on Dimitry Lascaris on any issue and not emerge badly hurt: an intellectual pit-bull terrier if I ever knew any. And a courageous and true moral giant of our time, too. I salute you, sir!

Wonderful and truthful rant, Dimitri. Without taking up space with a rant of my own, I'll simply quote two people who've influenced me. First, the spiritualist Jiddu Krishnamurti who said: "Question everything including me." Second, Norman Finkelstein who said here in a RU-vid video: "I am neither pro-Israel nor pro-Palestine. I am pro-truth and pro-justice." And by the way, I'm an American who despises what my government has been doing and continues to do. Thanks again for your rant.

@LuciThomasHardylover-qx6ts
@LuciThomasHardylover-qx6ts 2 месяца назад
That's what I was thinking. I know people who started their careers by getting a job on a local newspaper or just submitting their writing to a national paper. With absolutely no qualifications whatsoever. It's total rubbish to pretend that being a journalist means anything different than just someone who is doing the job. FFS, it's not like being a doctor or a gas engineer. If people want to read or hear what you are reporting,then you can call yourself a journalist. Getting a press pass is just up to the discretion of the issuing authority and whatever criteria they use to judge the credibility of your application. Sometimes just asking is enough! I absolutely agree with what Dimitri says about having the legal training being a good and relevant training, absolutely! But ultimately what makes a good journalist is being a decent human being. Someone who is paying attention to what is going on,who can think for themselves and give a voice to the people the rest of us want to hear from. And being a person of good heart and integrity so that people trust you and are prepared to open up. And that is a reputation that can be built on, rather than the tabloid journalists who schmooze people into telling their stories and then turning on them in the next breath. These are the people who have given journalism such a bad name,who have caused people to turn away from the mainstream media with no trust in what they're saying. And you, Dimitri, are filling the gap very nicely. So keep on keeping on! You're a much bigger man than your critics, and the world is a big place. ❤️

I understand what you're getting at, but aren't there journalistic standards that need to be followed to produce accurate journalism? Now you don't necessarily need to go to school to learn this, but you still have to learn it. In regards to writing, you still need to learn writing rules such as grammar, building a structure, etc to be a reliable writer.

@andrewsmith267
@andrewsmith267 2 месяца назад
Mr. Journalist here...since you called. I actually agree with a great deal of what you say. The mainstream media has indeed lost its way but only partially for the reasons you stated. It started to go down hill when its constituent members in both management and reporting staff abandoned the basic tenets of journalism and allowed their political and personal biases to infest their work. While you could, and have, argued that being upfront about bias and objectivity solves this, it does not and that applies to advancing corporate interests or any other interest that is not subject to context. What we end up with is a rag tag collection of activists pushing narratives and THAT is what has eroded public trust. If you look more closely at what the news consumer wants, they want to be presented with a set of facts and be granted the opportunity to form their own opinions rather than have someone else's opinions pushed on them. Citizen journalists do have an increasing role however most have zero interest in providing a range of opinions in their work and, if this proliferates, we end up with a literal Tower of Babel which, combined with social media incoherence pollutes public discourse to the point of oblivion. I watched your interview with the Hezbollah official and I will provide you with one observation about how different that might have turned out if conducted by a seasoned journalist. You asked a very astute question about if Hezbollah is committed to the destruction of Israel. He answered by saying Israel will self destruct. That immediately called for a follow up question such as "what if it doesn't...what will you do then?" Considering Hezbollah has repeatedly publicly stated that is its goal, you allowed him to get off that hook with only a nod and a wink. Given the current state of affairs, isn't THAT the most critical and I would certainly have attempted to present an opposing opinion. Your dedication to doing this is admirable but, at some point, you are going to find you are preaching to the choir and no one else and it's very difficult to affect change if you are only leading a parade with one legged band members.

As for Mr. Journalist, as far as I recall, there is no licensing requirement for reporting news,, conducting investigations, interviews or express opinions. Lawyers in particular make decent journalists, since we are trained to be able discern facts from spin and actually have importance of ethical obligations drill into us.

(And there are many who are spoon fed narratives to run with). Agree, as so many others will, Canada’s main media truly sucks when it comes to presenting intelligent, high quality journalism. Great to hear the reasons articulated so well, thanks Dimitri!

The so-called 'objectivity' in journalism has become quite boring lately considering the scale of things going on. I used to be understanding of that state of affairs (objectivity) but I despise it now and prefer to hear different viewpoints that give me some meat to chew on instead of the bland and false objectivity. I used to listen to Radio Tirana in the 70s or any other shortwave radios operated mainly by States. Boy! Those were propaganda machines which messages criss-crossed the airwaves 24/7. It was fun though to try to decipher what everyone was saying about everyone.

Slightly off topic but still relevant: The ones willing to see merking of people (and animals for that matter) will always squeal in your face when you stand up and push back. I got abused by a supervisor at work for wearing a keffiyah and when asked about it I said "I don't like what's going on in Palestine." The vicious reply was "I don't either. K(i)ll 'em all." IT took me a couple of days to get this to stop bothering me. I thought about all the trapped people who face this and the ultimate abuse (death) and cannot escape it. And did more research as to who supports and who doesn't support peace and justice.
