COM The Daily Show With Jon Stewart November 4, 2013
Stewart. Nice show for you tonight. Our guest
Diane Ravitch
here to talk bed case and he education reform. Ladies and gentlemen, there are many consequence to its growing cascade of revelations about our nations spying activities. Most recently the bugging of german chancellor
Angela Merkels
cell phone and lederhossen drawers. laughter and the fact that the
United States
pretended to be her onlean boy friend for two years. Two years but perhaps i never realized how acute and dire the fallout of this may be until i saw this shocking story. Russian leaders are denying reports of spying on overseas leaders. They are accused of passing out bugged gift bags at last months g20 summit. Jon bugged gift bags before all these revelations we could have jumped all over this story with good oldfashioned american con desession and smug superiority, thrown out a little boris and natasha reference. Done a little yaukoff smirnoff, in russia gift bag rummage through you, but now laughter i can only smear at how ham handed their spying is. Delegates were given usb pem ree sticks and phone chargers equipped with spywear. If youre a world leader and you put the usb stick russia gave you into your computer, you deserve to have them [bleep] with your screensaver. Wow. That is going to haunt my dreams. Oh. Like i was hypnotized. But it is now abundantly clear that any opportunity for outrage or moral that we would like to engage in when learning of another countrys covert activities is long gone. The only thing left for to us do is pretend we had no idea it was happening. The
Senate Intelligence
committee senator
Diane Feinstein
a loyal defend are of the nsa broke ranks and said they have been kept in the dark of just what the nsa was up to demanding a total sur ray lance review. If only we had some way of secretly finding out what the
Spy Organization
was up oh, you know who could help us, the ns oh [bleep] its time for a good old us of a plausible deny ability scramble. Brought to you by, i dont recall if i had been specifically briefed on whether or not this is butter. laughter and arbies. Arbies, why not challenge your stomach to a fight. So post nsa revelation, the house
Intelligence Committee
hauled in our nations spy chiefs yesterday. Who came before the
Congressional Committee
hat in hand. This is a tough time for nsa where everybody says what are you doing or why are you doing. It is much more important for this country that we defend this nation and take the beating than it is to give up a program that would result in this nation being attacked. Im sorry, did i say they came hat in hand. I meant middle fingers a blazing. Yes, the
Intelligence Community
s altitude could best be desribed as are we done here . Because i need to get back on that walk. You need me on that wall. You cant handle the truth. Show me the money. You had me at hello. We aint teaching radio, radio teaching us. Thats not a noise, this is a noise, im not a stripper, im a dancer. Said the director of the
National Security
agency. But the
Congress People
in the house
Intelligence Committee
were adamant they did not know anything about how we gather intelligence. I think that if you ares tapping the phone line of a foreign leader, and ally that is a significant intelligence activity that should be reported to the committee. I too want to just say that we need to do everything we can to insurance that our members get the information that we need. Why did we not know that heads of states were being eaves dropped on, spied on. I thought we were bros. These folks in congress on the house
Intelligence Committee
are completely taken off guard but what maybe the access of american intelligence gathering and they invest ree right to be outraged and surprised. Well, not every right, no right, they have no right. Heres why. In 2001
Congress Passed
the patriot act giving our intelligence agencies access to quote any tangible thing. Thats the phrase thats in the patriot act. Our nations intelligence has to have access to everything exaccept except wishes and faireys. And that act was renewed twice by congress. In 2007
Congress Passed
the protect america act. Giving those same agencies plan the question surveillance powers without even having to name specific targets. In 2008 and 2012 expanded and extended powers, explicitly reswrekted an amendment of a disclosure of the surveillance. So the legislature bewildered at the scope and reach of the surveillance granted them the scope and reach. If i may, i cant believe you stayed out all night and got drunk just because i left you with a keg of beer and a note that said do whatever the [bleep] you want for as long as you want. I mean for gods sake. cheers and applause you cant handle the truth i shouldnt have done that. With this increddably permissive
Legal Framework
they could surveil the entire world. All they would need is
Unlimited Money
and manpower which
Congress Also
gave them. We spend more on intelligence by some estimates than the rest of the world put together. There are now 3200 government organizations and private firms working on homeland security. Cont terrorism and intelligence. 854,000 people hold top secret security clearances. 10,000 locations in the
United States
where government or private contractors are working on intelligence. A massive nsa utah data facility which can hold five zetabytes of data. Jon what that thing can hold so much data they just made up a word for how the data can be. A zetabyte. Thats not even whats the last letter of the alphabet, z, zetabyte is there anybody on the house
Intelligence Committee
who will take some responsible for this. I just want to clarify the record on this, that this committee is briefed on the
National Intelligence
priority framework. All of the products of the
Intelligence Community
of which we are consumers are available to the committee. Source and methods, unlike any other committee here in this congress, are available to this committee. It is disingenuous to imply that this committee did not have a full and complete understanding of activities of the
Intelligence Community
. Jon here here,
Committee Chair
mr. Rogers, really, youre mr. Rogers . Well, wont you spy on my neighbor. Finally, a hero emerges. Someone without is willing to stand up and say look, we made this frankenstein monitor monster and it is our responsibility to rein him in and control him, or perhaps hell go the other way and suggest yes, we know about it and its all good. I would argue that maybe the fact that we havent had any complaints come forward with any specificity, arguing that their privacy has been violated clearly indicates in ten years, clearly indicates that something must be doing right, somebody must be doing something exactly right. Jon yes, ladies and gentlemen, i give you the chairman of the house
Intelligence Committee
airtight logic for why this cant a big deal, because for ten years no one specifically complained that they were being surveiled without their knowledge. You cant have your privacy violated if you dont know your privacy is violated, right . Jon of course you cant have your privacy violated if you dont know your privacy is being spying is like heal care. If you never find that actual never your ball sac, it cant kill you its like
Benjamin Franklin
said. Those who would trade liberty for security should never find out that that decision has alr e bxb ,℠,x jon as the great
Herman Melville
wrote in his classic mobbee dick, or the whale, let the most absent minded of men be plunged in his deepest referies, stand that man on his legs said his feet, and he will infallably lead to you water. laughter didnt expect silence on that one. Read to us, boy, read to us. Its late and our eyes are weary. laughter the seafaring tradition is a noble one, thus tonight we examine a few recent maritime stories in a segment we call, really, is that what were calling it . laughter jon i read from melville. It just doesnt have the gravity that we were fine. First up, puzzling
Maritime News
from the bay area. More than a month after the americas cup
Something Else
is grabbing attention this morning on the
San Francisco
bay. Jon pless tell me it is not another ghirardelli chocolate drilling station disaster. Still licking chocolate off the boards from the last one. Four stories high, this
Building Made
of
Cargo Containers
first appeared a few months ago. Sitting on a barge 250 feet long and 72 feet wide. On top are dozens spires that could be masts or flag poles or antennas. Whatever it is, its off limits to the public and guarded by private security, cnet reporter
Daniel Terdiman
began investigating and soon unearthed legal documents showing that google is involved. Nobody outside google really knows what it is. Jon thats weird, it a google project that no one in the outside world knows what it is. I guess what theyre saying it is google plus. Boom boom book book note to self, google shoulder injury. Lets see, if its serious google project, well, i have a puckish notion for how we might clear this up. You might find it a bit mischiefous. Perhaps we use the internet and google it. If you think you can get the answers just by goog elling it, guess again. laughter jon you have made a powerful enemy voiceover guy. I seem to recall another odd story from earlier this year. Google taking its technology to the stratosphere releasing 30 hightech balloons that will bring i would few internet to people who arent connected. Jon right, i would few. Dont most i would few hubs look like giant hovering jellyfish . Im sure google is not using the secret barges to teach ocean creatures to fly so they can rule the sea and air. Is that whss happening . Lets be clear, its not normal for an internet
Search Engine
to launch secret ocean vessels. Thats why there is no bing dinghy or bingey, you think im overly a recall lad by google bond villainestq and reach. Google launch a new
Company Named
calico that will try to reverse the aging process and extend life. Time magazine is feet uring the venture on a cover article posing the question, can google solve death . Jon what are you up to, google . First of all, solve death . How about first you make all your applications run the correct way on the iphone. Then well talk about conquering oblivions icy chest. Whatever is going on at least we caught it early. First thing we do is contain this to the
San Francisco
barge. Quarantine t you cant let this thing multiply. Another barge reported to be registered to the same company as the one in
San Francisco
appeared on the shores of portland, maine last week. Jon im pretty sure this is how the movie cloverfield started. Watch out, statue of liberty. Look, just the recap. Google is surrounding us on the water, watching us from the sky, and mott for nothing, constantly monitoring, recording every single street in the country and now they wont even let us die. laughter am i the only one feeling threatened. Im beginning to think the
Im Feeling Lucky
button on google should really be dow feel lucky . Well, do you . Stephen welcome back, my guest tonight
Research Professor
of education at nyu also an author, her latest book sell called reign of error the hopes of the privatization and danger of americas public school, please welcome back to the program,
Diane Ravitch
. Hello. Thank you. How are you . Great, thank you. Wonderful. Nice to see you again. Wonderful, was laughing my head off at the earlier segment, loved it. Really quite amusing, we are. We work on that for at least an hour and a half a day. Reign of error the hopes of the
Privatization Movement
and danger to americas public school. For me the most surprising thing in the book is you spend a great deal of time, one of the assumptions that we make in this country is that the
Public Education
system is broken. You make the case here that its not correct. Actually, no, its not true at all. What i did was to look at all the data and i found out that the test scores today are the highest ever in history. Graduation rates highest ever in history. Dropout rates lowest ever in history and i came to the conclusion that kids today are, in fact, the smartest generation yet. Jon applause jon what it seems to speak to though, is that like wealth inequality there is an education inequality. Because that is an amortization, i would imagine. We have the highest test test scores and
Graduation Rate
yet its clear that there are certain areas. Oh, yeah. Jon that are really struggling. There are i mean the single biggest source of is poverty. And we have the highest rate of
Child Poverty
amongst all the advanced nations of the world. There was a report. Jon so were number one. We are number one, number one in
Child Poverty
. And we now have about half of our states where half the kids are living in poverty, for a rich country this is ridiculous. Jon also people van impression that this is an inner city issue. And it not. And there are a lot of areas, people view it as middle class or blue collar, those areas where the children are, they have food insecurity, they have difficulties as well. This is a very wide spread issue when it comes to education, yes . Well, its actually focused on wrefer there is poverty or low test skorx low academic performance. Kids are sick, kids dont make it to school as often. Their attention is distracted because of all the huge problems, emotional and social and economic of their lives. Uhhuh. And yet these people without call themselves reformers say dont
Pay Attention
to that. Thats the elephant in the room. That is what we must
Pay Attention
to. I mean if you really care about improving education in america, we would have smaller class sizes. Particularly for kids who are poor. applause jon . We would make sure thief ree school in america had every day a nurse or
Health Clinic
that kid kos go to when they were sick. We would make sure that every school had the arts, that every school had physical education, that children who go to. Jon these areas, so the families in these areas, because this gets into another issue that you bring up in the book. The families in this area are rightly concerned, though, with the performance of some of the
Public Schools
in their areas. These schools can be dilapidated, poorly performing and these types of things. There is this movement and the
Charter Movement
that says whats wrong with giving choice to those kids in those areas, because the schools around them are not serving their needs, what is wrong with that in your mind . Well, whats wrong with it is that it is part of, i believe, a purposeful effort to create a consumer mentality around education. Public education is a public responsibility. Whether you send your children to private schools or to
Religious School
or you home school them, thats your right. And if you have no children at all, youre still obligated to support
Public Education
. What they are trying to do is to say that
Public Education
is not public, its a choice, its a consumer choice. Theyre trying to destroy the sense of civic obligation so the next time. Jon turn it into a marketplace. Exactly. So the next time a bond slew is up you will say well, i done have a child in will skoochl i will not vote for the bond issue. Were going to destroy
Public Education
that way. Jon do you think, you know, if you were to talk to most parents they would say the biggest bain of their existence is this new, you know, core curriculum that is being tested. But they would also say tenure is also a problem, the
Teachers Union
is too rigid, do you also admit that there can be reform in that area as well . That that can
Work Together
. Well, let me say that im probably the biggest critic of the status quo. I dont like the status quo. The status quo today is test, test, test, pretest, post test, data, kids are not looked at as individuals, theyre looked at as data points. I think its all wrong. I think that the idea of you look on your school, you go shopping and pick your school the way you pick your shoes or your automobile. That is wrong too. People should have a
Good Neighborhood School
and every neighborhood. One where they are very happy to send their kids because they know the teachers are terrific. The funny thing is if you look at whole data from gallup what it shows is people are asked how is
American Education
doing. They have heard 30 years of
American Education
is broken, it doesnt work, its obsolete. So they american
Diane Ravitch<\/a> here to talk bed case and he education reform. Ladies and gentlemen, there are many consequence to its growing cascade of revelations about our nations spying activities. Most recently the bugging of german chancellor
Angela Merkels<\/a> cell phone and lederhossen drawers. laughter and the fact that the
