Obama to Prince Harry: Leaders must use care on social media
LONDON - Former President Barack Obama told Prince Harry in an interview broadcast Wednesday that people in leadership roles must be careful in their use of social media and warned against spending too much time immersed in the internet at the expense of the world outside.Obama did not, however, directly mention his successor, President Donald Trump, who has made the use of Twitter a centerpiece of his presidency."All of us in leadership have to find ways to recreate a common space on the internet," he said. "One of the dangers of the internet is people can have entirely different realities. They can be just cocooned in information that reinforces their current biases."He spoke with Harry in the prince's capacity as guest editor of the BBC Radio 4 news program. Both...

Kosovans hang ties in protest at PM salary hike
PRISTINA - Angry Kosovans hung hundreds of neckties on the fence outside the government's headquarters on Wednesday in protest after its leader justified doubling his own salary by saying that wearing smart clothes was part of his job. Protesters hung some 300 ties of various colors and patterns and even the odd shirt in a gesture of scorn aimed at premier Ramush Haradinaj. He sparked outrage by passing a measure raising his salary from 1,500 to 3,000 euros a month. Ordinary Kosovans scrape by on a fraction of that. Kosovo's unemployment and poverty rates are about 30 percent. Defending the move in an interview last week, Haradinaj said: "I am obliged to wear a tie. I cannot go out dressed any old how. I must have a shirt." For Wednesday's protest, campaign group...
