Hey, it's Jennifer Jones Lee. You're listening to KFI, a M six
forty wake up call on demand on the iHeartRadio app. That's Monday, man,
it's time to rise and shine. Here's Jennifer Jones Lee with your morning
wake up call, Addie. I miss you, guys. Did you miss
me? I know, probably not. Jason Middleton, thank you so much
for filling in for me so I could wander on up to writing, Oh
my gosh, you guys. I rarely am like, hey, check out
my stuff from my vacation. Would Jeffer have one of those vacations where you're
like, God, bless America. That was a good vacation. That's how
I feel about my last trip. And if you follow me on Facebook Jennifer
Jones Lee or instagramm JJLKF, I I did some I tell you guys so
often about the way I grew up, and I know it probably sounds so
foreign to most people who grew up down here, but I wanted you guys
to see what my extremely rural life was like. And I think I probably
start most videos with I know you guys probably think I'm lying when I tell
you half these stories but that is genuinely what I did. I went back
to my roots, did some rodeo times, spent time on the ranch.
I'm gonna introduce you to Willie and Jezebel. For all of you who have
not watched any of my videos on Instagram Live, can you guess who Willie
and Jezebelle are. I'm just gonna leave that there. I'll tell you more
about it later. So many stories together to you this morning. We've got
debt ceiling talks, and I know normally you'd be like, I don't want
to talk about debt ceiling. However, you've got President Biden meeting with how
Speaker McCarthy today, and we are nearing Secretary Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen's deadline of
when she says, hey, guys, we're going to default if you guys
don't figure something out. So this is a big deal fact. At five
oh five, we're going to talk more about this meeting with ABC's Karen Travers.
Also, we've had somebody killed on the ninety one freeway in Corona,
but it's a weird story. It's not just a car crash that is,
you know, sad and tragic enough it's a little bit stranger. Then there
was this crazy car show that went terribly awry in Baja California. Steve Gregory's
got that story coming up. So let's get into these. President Biden and
how Speaker McCarthy are set to meet face to face again to talk about raising
the debt ceiling and avoiding a government default. No agreement, we're still a
part. Administration officials have warned the government could run out of cash to pay
its bills as soon as June first. Now, Speaker McCarthy says a phone
call with Biden yesterday was productive. I walked through things that I'm looking at.
What I'm looking at are where war differences are and how could we solve
those? And I felt that part was a perdounty. Isn't that what you
do when you negotiate things? You look at the problems because if you agree
on stuff, why would you look at that? Okay? Anyway, Biden
returned early over the weekend from the G seven semment in Japan and says the
phone call with McCarthy yesterday went well and their meeting again today more on that
with Karen Travers. In a few a man's been killed on the ninety one
Freeway in Corona Now. The HP says the twenty one year old man was
on the eastbound side about three in the morning yesterday when he was hit,
so he was walking or not, because there was an initial report of a
person lying in the freeway before they were actually hit by a car, so
some strange went on there yesterday before this person was killed. Ten people have
been shot and killed and nine others injured during a car show in Baja California.
Officials say it's not clear the motive for the shooting, but people were
gathered at a gas station when a gray van pulled up and guys jumped out
with long guns and opened fire. The shooting Saturday afternoon happened in the city
of Ensnada. Last month, a seventy nine year old man from sam Bernardino
was beaten to death in Tijuana while he was delivering donations to families in need.
The US State Department issued a travel warning to Americans last October, and
Baja California was elevated to level three status, with four being the worst.
Steve Gregory CAMAFINUS and police in Anaheim are investigating a double homicide in Disneyland's garden
Walk shopping District. Police Sergeant John McClintock says there was a large fight before
the deaths early yesterday and that investigators believed the people killed or involved. We
believed the fight might have started inside the garden Walk, potentially at a local
club. One man was fatally shot in the parking structure. Another was found
nearby. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Karen Traverse. Karen, any
movement, I mean it kind of sounds like President Biden and Speaker McCarthy after
their phone call, might be a little bit more interested in negotiations. Well,
you know, their meeting today, So at least that's some interest in
negotiations because they will sit down together today here at the White House. The
President yesterday said that his phone call with McCarthy when he was traveling back from
Japan went well. When he was asked how it was, McCarthy said that
the conversation was productive, but he stressed that there was no deal and that
they're still very far apart at this point. Over the weekend, the conversations
were kind of stopping and starting. They halted on Friday. The House negotiators
and the White House negotiators were going back and forth about steep spending cuts,
and you know, it was notable. I think that there was a sense
that really things couldn't take that big step forward closer to the finish line until
President Biden was back in Washington and he could sit down with how Speaker Kevin
McCarthy, Okay, and when the two. I think it's this cut that
I heard this morning from McCarthy that, honestly, I'm gonna say I mocked
a little bit, but check it out. I walked through things that I'm
looking at. I'm what I'm looking at are where war differences are, and
how could we solve those? And I felt that part was a productive and
I think my mock of it earlier was like a you guys are gonna look
at the issues that you don't agree on. Well, that's how negotiations work.
It felt so ambiguous though. It almost felt like, yeah, I'm
just reading some political statement here, but really I don't have any meat to
tell you guys. Yeah, yeah, like as vague as you possibly.
Yeah, in terms of a statement there, you know, we're going to
look at things that we don't agree on and think about ways that we could
get closer to an agreement on that. Oh while, as we're heading closer
to this very quickly looming deadline, the Treasury Secretary yesterday said is a hard
deadline. Janning Yellen said, June first is a hard deadline for when the
government would default, when the government would run out of the cash to be
able to pat its bills and no longer be able to borrow anymore unless there
is action from Congress. So you know, we talked about this. June
first is the date circle. June first has been the default date, but
yesterday she was very clear it's a hard deadline. All right, Karen,
Well, I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that today's talks are a little
more poignant than maybe some of these statements have been about the talks. But
we'll see if anything actually comes out of him. Thank you so much.
I'm sure we'll talk more this week. Absolutely, have a great day,
all right, you too, See you later. ABC is Karen Travers And
I don't mean to yes, I do. Who am I kidding? Yes?
I do mean to point out, Come on, you guys, if
June first, you have Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen saying Hey, guys, we
gotta bills to pay, and if you don't figure it out, we can't
pay the bills. And then what are they going to have to? I
don't know, pick and shoes. I mean I read a statement this morning
that Treasury Secretary Yellen is saying that there will be some hard choices to make
about what bills don't get paid if the debt ceiling isn't raised. Now,
let's think about this. We've all been in this position at one point in
our lives where you're like, man, I only have you know whatever,
five hundred bucks in the bank left until my next paycheck. But I've got
you know so col gas do, I've got edison do, I've got you
know whatever? My water bill? Do? What am I going to pay?
And what am I going to push off? That is where she's making
it sound we are. I'm sure the big bills will get paid and the
ones that we can push will get kicked down the road. But that fourteenth
Amendment, I mean, you still hear a lot of Democrats saying, hey,
President Biden, kicking that fourteenth Amendment where you have the opportunity to raise
the debt ceiling. But that's a sticky, sticky political move. Should he
do that? So we'll see what happens. Right, let's get back to
some of these stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour news room.
The latest Associated Press Nork Center for Public Affairs Research poll shows thirty three percent
of adults in the US say they approve of President Biden's handling of the economy.
Twenty four percent say national economic conditions are in good shape. Thirty one
percent say they approve of the President's performance on gun laws and immigration. Over
All, forty percent of people say they approve of the way that Biden is
doing his job. Vice President Harris is wrapping up her four day it to
LA Now she's headed up north to Silicon Valley. She'll be attending a roundtable
discussion today with Texi EOS to talk about the Biden Administration's support for US semiconductor
research development and for manufacturing oh Meta Meta's face in a big old fine from
the EU one point three billion that the EU is slapping Meta with for privacy
violations and has ordered it to stop transferring user data across the Atlantic. ABC's
Andy Field says this case started in twenty thirteen legal battle highlights the clash between
Washington and Brussels over the differences between Europe's strict view on data privacy and the
comparatively lax regime in the US. Meta has vowed to appeal and ask courts
to immediately put this decision on hold. The company has previously warned the services
for users in Europe could be cut off. A couple in a BMW have
been killed by a speeding jeep that slammed into them as they pulled out of
a drug I've through restaurant in South LA. The driver of the jeep ran
off after the crash early yesterday, but was caught a short time later thanks
to a witness who had followed him. This one is some serious money.
A very pricey private space flight is docked with the International Space Station for the
first time. In decade, Saudi Arabia has sent astronauts into space, including
the nation's first woman. The Axiom mission to ISS is a multimillion dollar chartered
flight led by a retired NASA astronaut. Axiom won't say how much Saudi Arabia
paid for the trip, but NASA has generously provided a list of expenses per
person per day on average daily charges include two thousand dollars for food, about
fifteen hundred for sleeping bags. If you need to send your luggage up to
Iss ahead of time, it runs about ten thousand dollars per pound. If
you need your items on the return flight to Earth, well it's double the
price. Andrew Caravella k if I News. Somehow, I feel like it's
kind of a bargain to put your sleeping bag in space. It only cost
fifteen hundred bucks. That's like, I don't know, go into one really
good Dodgers game, getting those like sweet seats. Officials in Mexico are investigating
a fatal mass shooting that killed ten people and injured nine others in Baja California.
The shooting Saturday afternoon happened during a car show in en Sonata. It's
not clear if this is cartel related. I hate the story. Dog in
Riverside County is being treated four hundreds of beastings. There was a man in
Paris who says he was trying to remove a hive on his fence last week
when the bees attacked a neighbor's two year old Rottweiler pitbull mix. The man
says chance the dog was stung at least seven hundred times on one side of
its body. Let's say good morning now to abcasonez Dela Kuta. The G
seven summit wrapped up, and it seemed like, once again you had Ukrainian
President Zelenski, who really took center stage when it all came down to,
you know, the person that everybody was listening to. Hey, good morning,
that's right. So we expected Ukraine to be at the top of the
agenda, and it certainly was. We actually saw Ukrainian President Lenski attending,
even though we should point out Ukraine is not a member of the G seven,
but his presence there certainly put Ukraine kept Ukraine front and center. So
we know Zolenski met with some of his biggest backers behind closed doors, and
he did seem to make progress on some of his biggest demands. So one
of the big headlines out of the summit was President Biden announcing the US would
join allies training Ukrainian pilots on the US built F sixteen warplanes, and Biden
saying he has a flat assurance from Zolenski that the planes will not be used
on missions in a Russian territory. That was a real concern for the US,
the fact that you know, some of these warplanes could be used to
attack targets inside Russia. And in fact, when Lenski first began making those
demands a few months ago, asking for warplane to be donated to Ukraine,
we saw a split amongst native countries with regards to what to do. So
you have some countries on the Eastern Plank, countries like Poland, for instance,
that supported giving Ukraine warplanes. They've actually moved ahead already with donating warplanes,
but then you had countries like the US that were more reluctant to do
so out of fear it could escalate the situation with Russia and the US saying
that it now does support plans to provide Ukraine with fighter jets. Worth noting,
though that the US hasn't said that the planes would come directly from the
US. So it appears that the US is saying we support allies donating planes
to Ukraine. It's it's still unclear who's going to be giving those planes and
when that's all going to happen. Yeah, and Russia has made it very
clear that that would be sort of a demarcation line for them if the US
starts actually being the one to provide the actual you know, weapons and things
that are actually used in war. So that's been one big thing that they've
sort of It's funny, it's like Putin kind of keeps his eye on it
and he makes these veiled threats, but then he never actually does anything on
them. I know that world leaders were, you know, telling China,
hey, put this pressure on Russia. You guys are buddy, yet them
to end this war in Ukraine. Did China, That's what I'm kind of
curious about. Did China have any reaction to this, Did it seem like
it was going to stay on Russia's side or what went down there. So,
you know, it's interesting because China has certainly tried to play a role
here, a mediator role. China has offered to broker peace between Russia and
Ukraine. Actually sent an envoy to Ukraine recently to try and broker peace.
And you had countries like Russia thing they support anything that could put an end
to the war in Ukraine. So China's trying to position itself as a kind
of world lead. I mean, it is a world power, but it's
trying to position itself, as you know, potentially a leader here in this
in this conflict. Should China be successful in negotiating an end to the war,
that would give China even more cloud than it already has on the geopolitical
stage. So China in a tricky position. So when it comes to to
these fighter jets, it will be interesting to see what China does and whether
you know, China China comes out to say that that that's um, you
know, an escalation of the conflict. China not thrilled with everything that happened
at the G seven. You had Chinese state media this morning calling the summit
an anti China summit. They feel that a lot of the talk regarding China
was um was not necessarily appropriate. You had Beijing summoning Japan's envoy to China.
You had Beijing also be rating Britain after their statements that they issued regarding
the G seven, and you had China's Foreign ministry today urging the US to
have the right understanding of China, meet it halfway and bring bilateral relations back
on track. Oh, that's that's some kind of good, juicy rhetoric.
I guess that came out of this for sure. We'll keep an eye on
that one and see how. You know, China continues to react to that,
thank you so much, and as I appreciate it, thank you all
right, see you later, Aby season as delakutera. And you know,
it's it's not even just a sticky situation for China to be in, but
it also here's the thing. We don't ever want China to think, oh,
yeah, we're depending on you guys to put an end to the Russian
conflict with Ukraine, because you don't want China to feel like it's got that
power. So how do you make somebody who is your let's call China our
friend of me, Shall we your friend of me do something you need it
to do without actually giving it more power. I don't have an answer for
that. I'm just throwing that out there as a yes, China, we'd
love for you to do something, do the right thing. At the same
time, we need you to do the right thing and not take any credit
for it nor feel like you've gained any footing at all. Probably not possible.
A group of business economists is predicting, oh, this is nice.
Inflation will remain high this year along with the Fed's key interest rates. The
National Association for Business Economic Survey found the median forecast is for inflation to average
four point two percent this year. That's up three point nine percent forecast in
the group survey from February. The Fed is expected to keep that key interest
rate at its current level of roughly five point one percent, it's highest point
in sixteen years. And a jury in la is set to hear the closing
arguments in the trial of a man accused of fatally shooting a man in Malibu
Creek State Park who was camping with this Two little girls, Tristan Boudette,
was shot through his tent in twenty eighteen were not hurt. The accused killer,
Anthony Rauda, is also charged with attempted murder for the shooting of a
man who was sleeping in a hammock. The man says he thought he had
been bitten by an animal when he was shot in the arm. Closing arguments
are set for this morning. President Biden and how Speaker McCarthy are going to
talk about negotiating that federal debt ceiling, raising it in the final days before
the country default on its bills. ABC's Louis Martinez joins us right now,
and Louie, I was just talking with your counterpart Abcason as de la Kutera
about what was going on at the G seven summit and the US pledging another
three hundred and seventy five million dollars in aid to Ukraine. But it couldn't
help me think about our upcoming interview, which was, Okay, well,
that's lovely that we're going to pledge three hundred and seventy five million. But
I hope whoever the accountant was who missed the three billion dollars in the accounting
error before for all of the aid that we were giving Ukraine is not the
same person who's going to do this math on this additional aid. Good morning,
Jenny. Yeah, it's a very tricky situation, right the Pentagon and
acknowledging they made a three billion dollar accounting error is what they're calling it.
But I think let's just call it fuzzy math, right. I mean is
they're looking for additional money they can give the Ukraine, and they found it
just by doing a different accounting metric. Okay. And the way I've been
explaining it is essentially you're going to buy a new car, you get the
dealer price. You're going to buy a used car, you've got the blue
book value. What they've been giving the Ukrainians from the US multitary stock pile
is that AID used equipment and so they were using the original dealer price when
they should have been using the blue book value. And that's how the Pentagon
is explaining this a way. Okay, I love that because at least that
makes sense. You know. I wanted to say, like, how in
the world do you, you know, have an error of three billion dollars?
But what I think that this does is it makes the American people go,
huh, we don't really like the way that this is being built.
You know. I'm when the government is preaching we're going to be transparent,
we're going to tell you everything that we do, when you're going to be
able to hold us accountable, and then there's a three billion dollars accounting error
at the Pentagon. You can't help but sit back and go, what else
are we having fuzzy math on these days? I no doubt about it,
Jem, because leading to a lot of hit scratching saying, well, if
this is what you have been doing for so long, why weren't you doing
it from the start? And you're hearing some House Republicans, some Center Republicans
saying just that. But the way that it's interesting, the tact that they're
taking on this, is that they're saying this would have been money that you
could have used on the front half, right, and not on the front
end as opposed to the back end, because essentially they're going through a lot
of this money already, and so they're having a rational specifically how much more
they can give them, and by finding at least three billion dollars, you
know what, it's actually going to be probably more because I was told on
Friday that they're applying this metric to all of the assistance that they've given you
Ukraine, and then it is probably going to be more like five billions.
Oh that's great, all right, Well, thank you for that. At
least we know that's coming. And thank you for you know, doing that,
you know, investigation for us and helping that. And I think that
that's where I know that people get mad about the media, and you know,
they say that we bias things and all that. I get that,
but then look at what you just did. Look at how this initial report
came out. It was reporters looking into this stuff who saw that there was
Hey, there's a discrepancy. Some doesn't smell right, and that's the way
that this stuff comes out. So I guess you know, my or moral
of the story here is, yes, I know that you just trust us
in the media a lot, but we get things right sometimes, and I
want to say you're welcome. You're welcome, So no, Louis, I
mean, seriously, you guys are doing the hard work on this, and
so we thank you for that, because sometimes it is somebody who just sees
something that's a little bit off and you do some digging, and not only
is a little bit off, it's way the heck off. Yeah, it's
something that's really you have to look at it, right, because we're talking
about the huge amounts of money thirty seven billion dollars that the United States military
has given to Ukraine already, and it's some of that existing stock, it's
some of it as new weapons. But I think overall, the rush to
help Ukraine was so this is at the forefront of everyone's mind a year ago,
right when the invasion occurred, and it's continued. But you've got a
different attitude in Congress right now, and it's going to make it more difficult
for the administration to get more money to provide to Ukraine, even as they're
gearing up for this big counter offensive, which may being Black Loud, it
might be somewhere else, but either way, money is going to be tight.
And so I think this is more a case of the God actually looking
inward and saying, Okay, how can we get more money? And so
they're being creative here. All right, Louis, thank you so much for
explaining that for us. Keep up the good work. Thanks, appreciate it,
all right, see you later. ABC's Louis Is, I don't know.
I don't like this when you guys, it feels like we just opened
Pandora's box and I don't like that. I don't like when I go three
billion and now Louis saying it's five freaking billion. All right, So breaking
this up for a second, I'm gonna give you the ninety seconds compilation of
what went down on my trip to Shasta County. First off, please go
to Lake Shasta if you need a trip this summer and you're like, oh,
we got a road trip somewhere whole leak. Gnolie. I'm telling you
go there because I've not seen the lake this full in I don't even know
a bazillion years. It's stunning. However, I was telling Tyler, here's
the only bad thing. So you've got all the logs that were on the
shores for years that are now in certain so that the La Shasta has five
arms, a couple of the arms that we went through off of it.
The McCloud in the Sacramento Holy cow. There it is log best if you
know the river or the lake, the pit side is stunning. Stay over
there. My pro tip. But here's the craziest thing. So they're telling
people now that because of all the logs in the water, if you're gonna
go wakeboarding or something like that, you could get smacked to buy a log.
Oh, that's not what i'd heard. And then the other thing is
there are snakes swimming in the water because the water has now encroached on the
snake's land. Like, hey, we've been stunning out here for the last
few years in this drought. Drought has been fun for us. Oh they're
swimming. I didn't see any I saw a couple of videos on the local
news up there of snakes swimming in the water, and I thought, oh,
that's neat because I'm going out on the lake tomorrow. Anyway, you
want to see the videos, JJLKFI and I tease you earlier about I went.
I went to my family ranch, which is where everybody still lives,
and our family barn is awesome, you guys, I kind of forgot how
awesome it was, so you're gonna see that. I like my dad and
I kind of break into it and it's it's old and original and still standing
and it needs, uh, you know, refurbishing. I think I'm gonna
start a go fund me with my family, like, let's refurbish the family
barn. It's awesome. Anyway. I got to meet my cousin's horse,
Lama, two donkeys, Willie and Jezebelle, and uh, Willie named after
my grandpa Bill. Grandpa, if you're listening, they've named a donkey after
you. I don't know what that says about our family, but you can
see what life and Redding is like for me. I got to go to
the rodeo. We have a family box that we've had. I don't know,
since I don't know since the start of the rodeo. For all I
know seventy five years. This year Redding Rodeo was awesome and it was just
it was a hell of a week to be up north. And you guys
can see my redneck roots in full swing. So Jjlkfi on Instagram and Jennifer
Jonesley on Facebook. Two people have been killed by a speeding driver while they
were pulling out of a drive through restaurant in South LA. Family members tell
KTLA the young woman killed yesterday was a twenty year old USC student. Her
name was Maria Bellin Polanco. Even though we were step siblings, we were
the same age, we were in the beginning we were in separable, you
know, we were like twins. And even though we were in blood still
my sister so sad. A friend of the young man who died says they
were texting over the weekend, but then his friend didn't respond. He found
out later his friend had died. The driver who caused the crash ran away,
but witnesses followed him. He was arrested as short time later, and
the EU has fine Meta one point three billion dollars for privacy violations and ordered
it to stop transferring user data across the Atlantic. But this took a bazillion
years. This case started in twenty thirteen. Finally there is a resolution.
Oh it's a he said, she said, or it's a they say,
they say when it comes to air bags, and this fight over ARC Automotives
recall of sixty seven million airbag inflators. Now the company says there's no reason
to recall them, and the National Highway trans Traffic Safety Administration disagrees. Jim
Ryan, good morning to you. So what is the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration saying about these airbags? Hey, Jennifer, and yeah, this also
started approximately bazillion years ago, two thousand and nine, Oh my gosh.
Yeah. And since that time, the National Highway Traffty and Traffic Safety let's
just call it NAS then name, and it says it has seen nine reports
of injury or death related to the airbag inflators built by Automotive. Sounds familiar
because Takata went through the same thing. Remember, millions and millions of vehicles
had to have their airbag inflators changed out because Takata airbag inflators were found to
be defective. Well, Nitza says the same may be true with ARC Automotive,
although there are far fewer numbers involved here, and our Automotive says,
you know what, because of that, we don't think there's a need to
issue a sweeping recall. We're not going to go along with it. It
just says, yeah, you want to. It's it's sort of the standoff
because generally the company or an industry will will say, go ahead, let's
let's go ahead and issue the recall. We'll eat the losses. You know,
it could be crippling in years ahead, as it was with Takata.
But ourc Automotive is saying no, they're resisting these calls for a nationwide or
the a worldwide recall. Okay, So what if you are somebody, though,
who has one of these ARC ones. I think I'd be a little
bit nervous, though I'd want to err on the slide of caution. I
think, well, you're right, So what do you do about it?
Yeah, you could take your vehicle in And by the way, ARC automotive
airbag inflators are found in about a dozen makes from around the world. Some
fan Kia, you know, Hunda uses them. General Motors uses them.
So and Chrysler. So if you have one of those vehicles, what do
you do about it? You can take it into a shop and have them
look and see if it's an Arc Automotive airbag inflator, but there's no real
fix in place at this point. General Motors has taken it upon itself to
do its own recall and has issued documents or issued letters to the owners of
about two hundred and forty thousand buik Enclaves from twenty fourteen to twenty seventeen,
four hundred and fifty thousand Chevy traverses, two hundred and ninety three thousand GMC
acadius. So it sent out these letters to them, to owners let them
know that there could be this problem, but there's no real fix in place
yet until Arc Automotive says, okay, we're gonna send out new airbag inflators
to dealerships and go ahead and put them in. Okay, no real fix,
And who plays for this, that's the thing. So who does pay
for it? Nobody's nobody's paying for anything right now. There's nothing to pay
for it, I guess, right, right. I mean, if you
if as if a car owner, and if you wanted to take your twenty
fifteen gmc A Katie into the shop and have them change out the airbag inflator
at your own cost. Save the receipt because at some point in the future
you might get reimbursed if there's a nationwide recall. All right, Jim,
Wow, what a mess? All right, thank you so much. I
appreciate it, Sudan, all right, see you later. ABC's Jim Ryan
as if you haven't the moral of that story, If you have an arc
airbag in your car, we don't know what you're supposed to do about it
or who's gonna pay for it. Other than that, have a great day.
What a mess. Have some fun stories for you. In a second.
We're going to talk about dinosaurs and pizza after we get the latest on
the WGA strike, because fall episodes of TV shows are supposed to start filming
in about a month, but the people involved are wondering whether that'll happen if
the Hollywood Writers strike continues. Members of the Writers Guild of America have been
on strike since May second. NBC has a full season shot of a new
missing person's drama called Found. NBC's also already filmed some episodes of Quantum Leap.
Those shows are generally the exception. If the strike continues into the summer,
networks will likely offer expanded versions of reality shows or game shows, or
reruns of scripted shows, lots of reruns. Mark Ronnery, If I knew,

one control of a key city in eastern Ukraine. Ukrainian officials acknowledge they now
control only a small part of Bakhmut, but they say their fighters presence has
played a key role in their strategy of just exhausting the Russian military. Basically,
the Ukrainians feel like, if we can drive this Russian military until its
wheels fall off, that might be the way that we win. It's kind
of a think of Russia as the the tortoise and Ukraine I'm sorry, and
Ukraine as the tortoise and Russia as the hair. Now, Ukraine says its
current position in surrounding areas will let them strike back inside bach Moot, while
there are other advances from the Ukrainian forces outside the city. Apple TV is

News. All right, have you ever thought about the angriest airport? I
know I hadn't either. Whose idea is it to go? Hey, let's
do a poll on angry airports. That guy gets paid too much money,
whoever he is, traveling back and forth can be a headache. But there
are ones in particular that what suck more and suck less. So there's this
recent survey survey in Forbes that found the angriest airport in the country is John
Wayne Airport in Orange County. I'm gonna disagree, but has anybody else been
to lax? I'm just saying. The analysis found nearly two thirds of the
tweets aimed at John Wayne Airport could be categorized as angry. Complaints ranged from
the airport being too noisy. Shut up? Oh, the airport's too noisy.
Please If you're gonna talk about flight delays, that's one of the things.
I get it. Issues with TSA, I get it, but you're
bitching about a noisy airport. Shut up anyway. The others on the list
were Jacksonville in Jacksonville, Florida, let's see Eppley Airfield in Omahanna, Braska,
San Diego International Airport. That one does kind of string if you've flown
southwest, it's San Diego and Norman why Manetta Sandoda International Airport. I kind
of like that one. Anyway, there you go, and Lax doesn't make
the list. I don't believe in this list. So Catweather from KFI.
We have a partly cloudy day ahead. That's because there is still this chance
of showers or thunderstorms and that's going to be mostly in the mountains and the
deserts today, but highs are going to be in the sixties and seventies.
Then it looks like for tomorrow low clouds and fog again. Highs are going
to be in the mid sixties, but it looks like we're gonna stay probably
just in the sixties low seventies for most of this week. We lead local
