Wolfowitz and the World Bank: beyond a joke?

01-04-2005 14:00

President Bush was so keen to install Paul Wolfowitz as head of the World Bank that he couldn't wait for April Fool's day. Yet the nomination shows an impressive, if warped, sense of humour. Wolfowitz' record is as a strident nationalist who has never worked in a bank, and has more experience of strategic bombing than strategic human development. So what did the President do? He appointed him to be head of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development…

MEDIA IMPARTIABILITY A MITH

01-04-2005 07:06

Amid ever more aggressive criticism of our ‘democratic’ mass media the question we should ask is whether our media’s much vaunted impartiality has become blatantly partial over the last years or whether the mass media has always been the serf of particular interests, interests camouflaged as the struggle to preserve the freedom of ‘our’ democratic world.

APRIL FOOLS: Funding Crisis!

31-03-2005 23:00

(((i)))

The Independent Media Centre Network has gone from strength to strength over the past 5 years in a bid to provide an alternative media outlet. But now, as IMC UK heads towards its own 5th birthday, a crisis is looming...

So, in order to to survive, IMC UK has decided that "if you can't beat 'em - join 'em." The current crisis is, of course, fiscal - threatening not only our ability to provide any kind of media service during the G8 protests, but may also mean we have to make cutbacks and axe participants from the project. This we would hate to do. Consequently, we are negotiating premium contracts with Ronald McDonald and Starbucks (for pop-ups, banners and promotional videos) to provide targeted marketing opportunities into a new sector. We hope that this will sustain IMC UK for the foreseeable future.
