Global Pulse: Obama's Nobel War & Peace Prize

Global Pulse: Obama's Nobel War & Peace Prize (October 14, 2009) President Barack Obama's Nobel Peace prize catches the media off guard. But the adjectives quickly start flowing. The war in Afghanistan and the contrast between Mr. Obama and his predecessor, President George W. Bush, fueled the blunt criticism and outright mockery of the Nobel Committee's decision. Is the furor directed at Obama the man, or Obama, the symbol of America?

Global Pulse: China Peaks, World Freaks (10/7/2009)

Global Pulse: China Peaks, World Freaks (10/7/2009) (October 7, 2009) World media are a bunch of party poopers, criticizing China as it celebrates the 60th anniversary of Communist rule. Fox News' response was predictable, but South African broadcasting seemed to have it in for China as well. China's former "big brother to the North," as Russia Today phrased it, was one of the few willing to join the celebration.

Global Pulse: Iran's Power Players (9/4/2009) (September 4, 2009) What's in a kiss? Iran's Ayatollah Khamenei and president Ahmadinejad took part in one of the most analyzed kisses since Romeo and Juliet.

He has sometimes supported and sometimes reigned in his chosen winner, Ahmadinejad. Position, politics, and power drive this dynamic duo. Who will emerge on top?

Global Pulse: Afghan Women: Far from Equal (8/21/09)

Global Pulse: Afghan Women: Far from Equal (8/21/09) (August 21, 2009) Afghan women can now vote and run for office, but they are still second-class citizens. Domestic violence is entrenched in society, the majority of women in Afghanistan are illiterate, and nearly half are married off while still children, under 16. Shocking numbers of Afghan women set themselves on fire, a fact that is underreported by Western media and may well signal their desperation. Whether the current election will help rectify these problems remains to be seen.

Cyber Attack or Media Hack?

Cyber Attack or Media Hack? (Global Pulse: July 17, 2009) When hackers hit government websites in the U.S. and South Korea, was it a cyber salvo in a new form of warfare, or just hackers causing mischief? Some media went on a cyber field day, pointing fingers at that international bad boy, North Korea. But in this case, the hype may be more of a threat than the hackers.
