Fabulous essay about a commercial-to-residential incentive program that hasn’t lived up to its promise of affordable housing. https://t.co/1ybfVzAp0G

There is no silent spring this #EarthDay, because of the scientists, politicians and corporate leaders who took action as environmental threats loomed. What can we learn from systems ecologists for the potential age of autonomous AI? My latest in @globeandmail

[Peter W. Klein @peterwklein]

Do we need a Silent Spring for the AI era? Underneath the AI noise, I keep thinking about Bikini Atoll, DDT, ozone layer. We keep releasing powerful things into complex systems and assuming we can contain the consequences. We've been here before. ☢️📷

Thrilled to see @bribeincdoc nominated for the Emmy for Best Business Documentary! As corruption runs rampant, this timely film explores why bribery matters through an investigation of one of the biggest corporate bribery cases in modern history. https://t.co/8vUFzEsW7h

You Say You Want (Them to Have) a Revolution...

The US has a long history of encouraging citizens abroad to revolt, but rarely follow through with support. Hungary. Cuba. Afghanistan. Iraq. Will Iran be different? My take in @nytimes

Governments in the US and Canada are taking advantage of the line between journalism and activism. My take on what the Don Lemon and Amber Bracken cases mean for press freedom. https://t.co/igfPiG95Jn

Canada's largest paper, @TorontoStar, asked me to weigh in on the @60Minutes @bariweiss saga. For me, it comes down to a flawed media landscape where the firewall between editorial and corporate have crumbled. https://t.co/8Tze0MRWb7

Thanks to @peterwklein , and Alexandra and @CalynShaw for their bravery of spirit in reporting this story.
I encourage everyone to see @BribeIncDoc as a mirror of our global battle against corruption.

[Peter W. Klein @peterwklein]

@TorontoStar asked me to weigh in on the @60Minutes CECOT saga. For me, it comes down to flaw in corporate control of media that is ripe for political manipulation & abuse

[Global Reporting Centre @GlobalRepCentre]

GRC’s founder @peterwklein says decision to pull @60Minutes story raises concerns about corporate control of media. "A salve to this wound in the media landscape is the emergence of non-profit news organizations." https://t.co/IXccyqR3E1 Support GRC: https://t.co/N0sExPkOhH

I grew up listening to my dad playing recordings of Hungary's greatest comedian, Géza Hofi. I got to thinking recently about Hofi's dangerous antics during the height of the Cold War, and wrote this piece about the risks to American comedy today.

Working with @Ageinvestigates was one of the high points of my career -- such a smart, passionate journalist, who broke one of the biggest corruption cases in modern history. I was proud to join him on the new podcast The Great Untold to discuss our film @BribeIncDoc.
