North Korea’s rumors of street protests and a potential succession crisis had viewers speculating over possibilities for a “peaceful” resolution. The vast majority agreed sanctions “would not help in any way and would only harm the citizens.” Most encouraged open dialogue among the leaders in an effort to develop a positive approach.

I believe the Israeli position is rather arrogant, but not a surprise. I wonder if CNN will follow up the story with the US authorities about the US credit card accounts. Being a daily viewer of CNN, I will be watching this story with great interest.

Two conversations led the discussions among the Amanpour audience this weekend. One was about the internal crisis the country of Venezuela encountered. Confusion about the possible outcome was highlighted by most who expressed hopelessness. The second discussion was about the podcast posted by Amanpour in Facebook that suggested the worthiness of de-listing “more” Taliban from international sanctions lists. Some Taliban have already been de-listed. While debate about this topic took place, the majority simply stated; “It’s too early to expect any positive outcome.”

Hamas is an acknowledged terrorist organization. If the assassinated Hamas leader was in Yemen and taken out with a preditor missile, would there be anyone complaining?

The discussion about Venezuela’s internal crisis continued to stir the emotions of the Amanpour Facebook audience. Many felt Chavez “was in control” and “at least fifty percent” of the citizens in Venezuela were in his favor. Uncertainty was the main reaction portrayed by the majority about this situation. Additionally, the debate concerning Iran’s human rights unfolded new opinions among Amanpour Email viewers. The common thought was that Human Rights Sec. Gen. Mohammad Javad Larijani “left important matters out” and “kept the truth” to himself.

Comments about Venezuela’s opposition leader to Amanpour

It's just a political bluff. The Venezuelan people is still behind El Presidente Chavez.
Osy Nkemakolam
It's possible if Chavez don’t rig the election; Venezuelan economy is in free fall because of Chavez policy of indigenization.

Amanpour viewers shared personal expectations as the discussion about Venezuela’s internal crisis unveiled. The exchange Christiane and the Venezuelan leaders led initiated an open dialogue among the majority of the viewers who felt that Chavez’ leadership “faltered throughout.” The mere minority said they would vote for Chavez again if he was re-elected and commented that they did not find such a “broken” outcome during his governance. Overall, the audience’s disapproval of Chavez and his time in office surpassed by a landslide those who disagreed and voted in Chavez’s favor.

Amanpour viewers appreciated the interview with the Secretary General of Iran's High Council for Human Rights, Mohammad Javad Larijani, who fiercely defended his country's record on human rights. A controversial debate about this interview unleashed among most viewers with one common thought about Mr. Larijani’s words; deceit. The majority felt his statements throughout the exchange with Amanpour were incorrect and Iran “lacked democracy and human rights.”

Amanpour Facebook viewers discussed various topics of interest. The majority felt that the interview with Hollywood celebrity Angelina Jolie was not appropriate based on the absence of “her scholarly credentials and expertise” to comment on Haiti. Additionally, other viewers thought the Amanpour show “focused on Iran” solely, and they commented, “Please, let Amanpour know there is a world that exists out there.” Furthermore, the plan that discussed a plan to save Greece from its debt crisis generated mixed feedback with no significant tilt to either side.

Interview with Angelina Jolie
Tellì Foto
How is anything Jolie-related news worthy? Anyone splashed across every tabloid cover imaginable even half as often as she is should not even be mentioned from any respected journalist.
Uzzi Ez
Angela Jolie is news worthy because she is big enough celebrity with influence to actually make things happen and be heard on issues.

Amanpour. Facebook viewers engaged into an intense debate about the 31st anniversary of Iran’s Islamic revolution. While some expressed uncertainty and fear about the potential clashes that this anniversary could cause, others said they supported any opposition movements “one hundred percent.” A few commented, “The days of the Iranian regime are numbered” Overall, the majority highlighted a distinctive set of personal beliefs that emphasized a division of goals and ideals for Iranians as a whole. Amanpour. Email viewers continued to express concern about the aftermath of Haiti’s earthquake.

The Amanpour show usually has lively discussions involving knowledgeable people. This is good. I am wondering why nobody at the UN or elsewhere promotes the role of universities in service to solving the problems of society at large. For example, a few engineering or architecture schools could go to Haiti and design some structures that could be built using appropriate technology. Relevant NPOs such as Light Up the World could be involved too, since education means evening reading which means light bulbs. Off-grid may be better in the long run and would save on diesel and pollution. Green infrastructure. Maybe some academics would want to look beyond their department's offices. Such collaborative, inter-disciplinary projects might be hard to setup and start, but I am sure they would have a great impact.

Amanpour. Facebook viewers applauded the interview with Nigerian Attorney General, Michael Aondoakaa and Nigerian author, and Nobel laureate, Wole Sonyika. The vast majority expressed a deep disappointment for the blatant lies believed to be stated by the Attorney General, Mr. Aondoakaa followed by strong accusations that doubted his credibility as a leader. Nigerian viewers who commented, “Knew how the PDP operated in reality”, also accused the Nigerian political party PDP of fraud and corruption. On the opposite side, most viewers supported Mr. Sonyika’s theories and his stance regarding the political future of Nigeria and described him as “a true statesman and a patriot.” Additionally, Amanpour Email viewers commended the show Unattainable Beauty that discussed a French lawmaker that introduced legislation to label retouched photos from advertising to magazines spreads. While the majority of the audience felt this was a good step toward the restoration of self-esteem in women, especially in teenagers, others, commented “retouching photos was the effect, not the cause” and that this action was not deceitful but rather an attempt to show beauty.

Dear Christiane,
I am watching your show now and heard Diane Von Furstenberg talk about the age of models and not promoting super-skinny ones. I'd like to bring your (and your viewers') attention to what I received today as an ad on my Yahoo mail - from Kenneth Cole/Nordstrom's. I thought it was outrageous and offensive. When you click to the actual Kenneth Cole site, the models look normal. Where can someone complain about the promotion of a minus-zero, underage model?
All best,
Emily Lo
Great show about retouching fashion photos – still watching. As a designer i have an interest in this, but retouching is the effect, not the cause. Just look at the pictures women put on the social networking and dating sites. My guess is that the pictures put on such sites are on average 3 years younger than actual age. They do not do this to deceive, they just want to present themselves as beautifully as possible. Focus on health (including mental self image) and fitness programs, and the beauty will naturally follow.

Amanpour. viewers held hope for the political future of Nigeria and while most commented they felt the government corruption was at its peak, others thought its economy was about to improve. The Nigerian audience voiced added types of concern such as violence, poverty and religious differences among some of the causes of continued distress within the communities. Overall, most commented that while optimism was alive in the country, “the leaders were to blame” for the condition in which the citizens lived currently.

Hi Christiana
I love my country, i dont know why but i would still die for my country in the absence of basic infrastructure, good governance and the rule of law but, also with the hope of a better future and the will to work towards all the aspirations and dreams of a better future. with all due respect to Prof. Wole Soyinka i know he has an opaque view of the political structure and situations in Nigeria due to his level of participation. its not just by writing books and tongue lashing of the people involved but by actual participation and making a difference. Rome wasn't built in a day and people must have shed blood to call the U.S.A what it is today (A great country). you need to drag someone down to your studios, an ex president, a fomer security chief (someone with a lot of insight) and you must ask the right questions! maybe 'Obasanjo' ask him the right things and he would say it all. he looks up to no one.
Regards

Amanpour. viewers geared their commentary toward the European consideration of the Burqa ban. Controversy was the main component in all conversations that in their majority stated that women “should be allowed to wear the Burqa, unless the country of residence, dictates otherwise.” Mixed reactions were present by the minority. Additionally, the legalization of drugs in México continued to be of interest to some, who expressed their opinions about it.

During Amanpour's recent broadcast, it was stated to the Mexican Foreign Minister that marijuana was legalized only in California, stating that this was but a small fraction of the country. However, it should be noted that the number of states to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes has grown rapidly over the past decade to 14 states in all. Rather than dismissing the argument of legalizing marijuana to attack the narco-trafficking problem in Mexico, it should be taken as a legitmate argument considering the growing of public support within the United States for such a policy. Too much responsibility is placed on foreign governments when the roots of the problem are high demand and the cumbersome policies of the drug war.
