The French president is attempting to impose regulations on news disseminated through Facebook and Twitter. This week President Macron said that he will introduce legislation to help prevent the influence of "fake news" during elections by blocking access to sites deemed to contain false information. Who makes the decision of what is and is not real? Is this the first battle on the war of technology? We speak to a new voice in Europe about the crackdown on social media and what tech giants like Facebook are doing with your data. Then, President Trump cuts aid to Pakistan until Islamabad takes action against the Taliban and Haqqani terror groups. Trump says this may only be a first step in gaining compliance from the Pakistani leaders in the War on Terror. We'll speak to our voice in Pakistan and find out if pulling aid will light a fire under the rear ends of officials. Finally, we're going back to Anderson Cooper's Smokin' New Year's Eve celebration. Last year we had drunk Don Lemon, this year we have Randi Kaye ripping a joint live on television. If she did it on Ellen, Voice to America would have nothing to say; but it was a segment on CNN, the most trusted name in news. Grab your ganja and attach your gas mask bong because Change is Hard.
