BILL COSBY AND ASSOCIATES ...


By Bernard Bujold (LeStudio1) - 
Developments in accusations of sexual crimes involving Bill Cosby are adding to the numerous sex scandals, economic and political time. As many observers say: "All our society tags disappear ..." 
The acts by Bill Cosby, who called himself a strong supporter of family life and who had strongly criticized the lack of discipline of Black Americans and especially their sexual promiscuity, are particularly disappointing. In a sense, the acts of Cosby resemble those of Quebecers Marcel Brisebois, also a large symbol for our society and a member of the intellectual elite, who was recently arrested and charged with sexual assault of a minor when he headed a private college in Valleyfield. 
Each new unveiled crime is always more shocking and surprising than the last! 
One may wonder if worse is yet to come?

THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA


By Bernard Bujold (LeStudio1) - 
The story of Brian Williams (NBC) is much like that of Joel Legendre and François Bugingo. 
In the case of Williams, American soldiers had contacted NBC in 2003 to say that Williams did not tell the whole truth in his reports on the war. NBC did not respond... 
In 2015, thinking to promote their star Williams, NBC released a video recounting the exploits of their star anchorman. That was the end of Brian Williams when the same soldiers who had complained in 2003 commented virally on social media unveiling the lies of network television presenter. 
When social media did not exist, the mainstream media, governments and other institutions were fortresses and their respective stars were untouchables! But with social media, it is the public that has become the master and judge for the truth.
