What would you do differently in this image if you had more time and/or skills? The image is a screen capture from an MP4 created using a Canon HD Vixia HF R62. The colors were translated from the color picker located at https://html-color-codes.info/colors-from-image/. The Hex Codes were translated into the names of the colors at http://chir.ag/projects/name-that-color/. The overall setup could have been staged at KNPB-TV (where I work) using a studio green screen and the control room to edit but the home version required a bit more of an effort to achieve even rudimentary results. In maintaining the theme of simplicity, it was edited on a Microsoft paint program.

What does this statement mean to you? There was a time when journalism was not web based and the reporter had to fend for himself with whatever means was available to him. That is partly the reason I chose not to create the Challenge at the KNPB studio. State-of-the-art equipment; lighting, cameras, editing rooms and final cuts, all readily available, would have been a takeaway from the process of basic media technique, much of it lost to modern technology.

RED FLAG
Checkpoint Charlie: NATO, Article 5 and the Berlin Wall
There was no North American Treaty Organization, NATO, immediately following the close of World War Two. By the close of the decade, due to pressure from the Soviet Union, particularly in Germany, the alliance was formed with 12 initial members. The concept of “collective security” had been around for over 30 years, at least on the Continent, with respect to the World War One League of Nations; neither the United States nor the Soviet Union were members.

Red Flag: The U.S.-Japan Security Pact of 1960
The recent statement by the White House concerning a “bilateral” treaty between the United States and Japan from 1960 raised the issue of the former’s lack of a security-military commitment, with the latter doing the heavy lifting. It comes as no surprise in light of other treaties such as NATO in Europe with the U.S. again carrying The Weight.
Part and parcel to how it all unfolded had to do with certain ambiguous positions by the two nations coupled with the American public not totally informed of the agreement. The situation was quite different in Japan. (09 March 2025)
