    To the Editor, Susan Goldberg National Geographic Headquarters 1145 17th Street N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036-4688 [email protected] London, June 8th 2018 Dear Susan Goldberg, Our trade associations represent the producers of certified compostable materials including “bioplastics”, and we are linked with members around the world. The UK, USA and European associations are co- signatories to this letter. The article recently published by National Geographic and written by Laura Parker linked here https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2018/06/plastic-planet-solutions-waste-pollution/ has caused a certain amount of dismay among our membership. While we are thrilled to see your illustrious, prestigious and authoritative journal tackle the monumental problem of plastic waste, the recent issue appears to also transmit a series of misconceptions around bioplastics which our membership does not recognize or associate itself with. Our members work to certified standards, recognized in the USA and globally, around the end of life of their materials. They recommend these materials only as solutions for certain uses, not as a panacea for every plastic issue. They certainly do not promote the use of bioplastics as a solution for marine littering and know that there is no such standard nor any material made by them that would biodegrade in a short time in the ocean. Nor would any of our members want to be associated with a message that says “throw this out the window or into the river, Mother Nature will take care of it.” Bioplastics can be a confusing term in itself but it is not the only material that can be defined in many different ways.

CNN is owned by parent company Time Warner, and the U.S. news network is a division of the Turner Broadcasting System.[5] CNN is sometimes referred to as CNN/U.S. to distinguish the North American channel from its international counterpart, CNN International. As of June 2008, CNN is available in over 93 million U.S. households.[6] Broadcast coverage extends to over 890,000 American hotel rooms,[6] and the U.S broadcast is also shown in Canada. Globally, CNN programming airs through CNN International, which can be seen by viewers in over 212 countries and territories.[7] In terms of regular viewers (Nielsen ratings), CNN rates as the United States' number two cable news network and has the most unique viewers (Nielsen Cume Ratings).[8] History Early history CNN's first broadcast with David Walkerand Lois Hart on June 1, 1980. Main article: History of CNN: 1980-2003 The Cable News Network was launched at 5:00 p.m. EST on Sunday June 1, 1980. After an introduction by Ted Turner, the husband and wife team of David Walker and Lois Hart anchored the first newscast.[9] Since its debut, CNN has expanded its reach to a number of cable and satellite television networks, several web sites, specialized closed-circuit networks (such as CNN Airport Network), and a radio network.

    Conflicts of Interest in the Syria Debate

    Conflicts of interest in the Syria debate An analysis of the defense industry ties of experts and think tanks who commented on military intervention October 2013 About the Public Accountability Initiative The Public Accountability Initiative (PAI) is a non-profit, non-partisan research and educational organization focused on corporate and government accountability. In addition to publishing research on critical public accountability issues, PAI maintains LittleSis.org, an involuntary facebook of powerful people and tool for power research that was used to compile data for this report. PAI’s work is funded by a variety of non-profit sources (all funding sources are listed at http://public- accountability.org/about/funding). This report was authored by PAI research analysts Gin Armstrong and Whitney Yax, and PAI director Kevin Connor. Introduction During the public debate around the question of whether to attack Syria, Stephen Hadley, former national security adviser to George W. Bush, made a series of high-profile media appearances. Hadley argued strenuously for military intervention in appearances on CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, and Bloomberg TV, and authored a Washington Post op-ed headlined "To stop Iran, Obama must enforce red lines with Assad." In each case, Hadley's audience was not informed that he serves as a director of Raytheon, the weapons manufacturer that makes the Tomahawk cruise missiles that were widely cited as a weapon of choice in a potential strike against Syria. Hadley earns $128,500 in annual cash compensation from the company and chairs its public affairs committee. He also owns 11,477 shares of Raytheon stock, which traded at all-time highs during the Syria debate ($77.65 on August 23, making Hadley’s share’s worth $891,189).

These programs enjoy a large and diverse viewer base and are an important part of the public debate about issues that affect women's lives. With male guests vastly outnumbering female guests on Sunday morning broadcasts, women lose out in shaping the national discourse, and your viewers miss important points of view. A report published this week by Media Matters for America, analyzed Sunday shows on your networks, including ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, CBS' Face the Nation with Bob Schieffer, Fox Broadcasting Co.'s Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, NBC's Meet the Press with David Gregory, CNN's State of the Union with Candy Crowley, and MSNBC's Up and Melissa Harris­Perry. The report found that overall gender diversity on the broadcast shows and CNN was lacking, with men making up more than 70 percent of the guests on each program.
