Hi
I'm Carl Azuz for CNN 10. It looks like
a standoff between the facebook
technology company and the nation of
Australia is coming to an end
what happened between them is our first
story this wednesday
last week facebook suddenly prevented
australians from finding or sharing news
on the social
media platform this included links and
articles for local and international
newsand it appeared to be the most
restrictive step facebook has ever taken
against
publishers of information at first
facebook's dramatic block
included some fire and emergency
services health agencies
politicians and charities that help
victims of violence
the company said these pages were
unintentionally affected by its news
blockand that it would restore them but why
did facebook stop
news sharing in the first place it all
has to do with the disagreement between
technology companies and
news companies these two sides both
benefit from news that's posted online
tech companies like facebook and google
get reliable news content to help fill
in their search results and feeds
news companies benefit when people visit
their sites after clicking on stories
posted through facebook and google
but for years news producers have said
that tech companies take unfair
advantage of them
using news content but not giving the
owners of that content much in return
the australian government got involved
in this it's considering a new law that
will require tech companies to pay
news companies for their articles and
video instead of distributing that
content for free
that's why facebook decided to shut down
news in australia
it fiercely opposes this legislation
australian officials say facebook's move
was heavy-handed
unnecessary and that it came without
warning and the nation's prime minister
said that big tech companies think
they're bigger than governments
and that the rules shouldn't apply to
them facebook said it does not steal
newsbut that publishers choose to share
their stories on the social media
platform
it was concerned that if australia
passed a law that required it to pay for
news content
other countries would too facebook was
also worried that it would be forced to
pay for news content
that people randomly shared on its
platform content that facebook itself
had nothing to do with so what changed
in the standoff
the company said this week that the
australian government would allow
facebook to keep control
over what news information appears on
its site facebook will also get more
time to work out deals with news
publishers
so it won't be immediately required to
start paying them for content
the tech company now says it'll restore
news sharing in australia
is continuing to descend on the

ten-second trivia which of these artists
was born in norway
johannes vermeer hedward monk vincent
van gogh
or omari matisse
born in norway in 1863 was the
expressionist painter edvard monk
his best known painting is one of the
most famous artworks in the world
and the scream has a bit of a mystery to
it a tiny message was hidden
in the painting the words read quote can
only have been painted by a madman
who wrote them as far as the painting
goes art historians believe it was
inspired by a walk monk took around the
norwegian capital of oslo
he was said to be mentally and
physically uneasy at the time
the scream was first unveiled to the
public in 1895
and some critics didn't like it they
thought the work was troubling and
questioned the mental condition of the
person who painted it
curators at the national museum of
norway say monk was hurt by this
criticismand that he wrote about it in his diary
but the author of the hidden message has
been less certain
it's faint unclear and written in pencil
on top of the paint
so experts say it was done after the
artwork was finished
some have speculated that a critic
vandalized it but after using
infrared technology to examine the
madman message
and then comparing it to monks notes and
letters
curators concluded that it was written
by monk himself
they believe he put it there after
hearing people criticize the screen
a photographic mystery is our next story
today
we may never know how color photographs
taken in the u.s state of alaska
in the mid-20th century made their way
onto slides in the netherlands
50 years later but two boxes of these
color slides were purchased there by a
german woman in 2008
and she thought that if she could only
get these photographs published
somewhere
some of the people in them who are still
alive might recognize themselves or
their family members
whoever took these photographs is still
unknown but one by one
the subjects have been coming forward
filling in captions lost to history
i was on facebook one morning and i saw
this
lost treasures post kept scrolling and
then i
ran across our photo and i was sort of
in disbelief
in 2008 jennifer scooping bought two
boxes of slides at a flea market in
amsterdam
the seller didn't know anything about
their origin
i could immediately see that there were
a lot of beautiful portraits of people
that they are dated back to the 50s and
60s
i did scan them and looked at the
picture andcould decrypt a few cities like
anchorage for example
she reached out to some cultural
institutes in alaska hoping they could
help with her search
but had no luck scooping eventually put
the slides away and didn't rediscover
them until 2020 when she was cleaning
out a cupboard
in a renewed effort she reached out to
francesca street
a journalist at cnn hoping that some
media coverage and the power of the
internetmight reunite the photos with the people
in them
thank you for reaching out as well um on
twitter yeah
i'm glad you picked it up and thanks for
replying scoopin put all the photos in a
google drive
and street posted an article online
messages from excited readers soon
started flooding in
i recognized my sister marsha and then i
noticed the other photo
nice and i practically jumped off the
couch
many people have died in that collection
of photos
and it's uh really heartwarming
and welcoming for those of us who are
left
even though our mom's not with us
anymore it's like he visited us
but the identity of the photographer
remains a mystery
it was only outsiders who back then had
photos
it was rare to find anybody who had a
camera would
that would capture anything in color
some clues pointed to a klm flight
attendant
others to a local resident
for my people when someone dies and the
baby
is born i'm i have her soul
and so for this generation to see those
older photos of older people say
i'm named after this person i've never
had that thought i've never seen a photo
of this person
it's a finely connecting soul
bringing it home this wednesday a house
that's a lot easier to move than the one
we showed you yesterday
this is a tiny house a really tiny house
a kansas couple's mid-century modern
dream home
that's one twelfth the size of the real
thing the detail is exacting it even has
a dollhouse
it was built as a diversion during the
coronavirus pandemic
and the couple's asking their virtual
instagram visitors to make a donation to
an alzheimer's foundation
it actually took them longer to
construct than a real house like they
say
home wasn't built in a day and it's too
bad it's not made of gingerbread because
that would have been home sweet home
still
they're grateful to have a roof under
their heads a home within a home
literally two houses
in one because a lot of good things can
happen inside those eight walls
