Speaker 3: It's time for your morning wake up call. Here's Amy King.
Speaker 4: It's five o'clock.
Speaker 1: This is your wake up call for Monday, September sixteenth.
Speaker 4: I'm Amy King.
Speaker 1: Good morning. Time to stop hitting the snooze and get
Speaker 1: out of bed. I got my coffee. I didn't get
Speaker 1: my breakfast this morning. Are you one of those people
Speaker 1: who you can just go for hours and hours without eating.
Speaker 1: I have one of my best friends doesn't. She doesn't
Speaker 1: eat until like noon. I'm like, if I don't eat
Speaker 1: until at like right when I'm up, my brain gets
Speaker 1: a little scattered.
Speaker 4: So today could be fun. Do you ever have bugs
Speaker 4: fly into your house?
Speaker 1: So yesterday I was out watering the plants, came back in,
Speaker 1: was doing something in the kitchen and this big old
Speaker 1: something is fluttering around in the kitchen.
Speaker 4: I'm like, what is that?
Speaker 1: It lands it's a praying mantis in my house. It
Speaker 1: wasn't one of the ginormous ones like because I've seen
Speaker 1: him where they're like four or five inches long. But
Speaker 1: he was like a good three inches long and he
Speaker 1: was flying around. So I was like, okay, great, what
Speaker 1: am I going to do with that? Well, if I
Speaker 1: leave him, the cats are going to get him. So
Speaker 1: I trapped him with a Martini glass, gently placed paper underneath,
Speaker 1: and took him back out onto the balcony. And then,
Speaker 1: you know how they look at you. He just sat
Speaker 1: and stared at me and they kind of tilt their head.
Speaker 1: They're really kind of freaky. Anyway, I was wondering if
Speaker 1: that sign of good luck though, because you.
Speaker 4: Know how like it's it a it's not a firefly,
Speaker 4: it's a oh what's that? What's the bug that's supposed
Speaker 4: to be a good luck? Not a grasshopper? Ladybugs?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 4: Oh shoot, lady bugs are good luck?
Speaker 1: Well, ladybugs are good I can't remember they made a
Speaker 1: movie about it. Kevin Costner was in it. Oh, I'll
Speaker 1: think about it. You guys know what I'm talking about. Though,
Speaker 1: there's some bug that's supposed to be goodluck. So I
Speaker 1: was wondering if maybe it was good luck that a
Speaker 1: praying Mansis came into my house. I don't know Emmy's were.
Speaker 4: On last night.
Speaker 1: I didn't watch it all, but I watched the Big
Speaker 1: Ones and I have to tell you I just watched Showgun.
Speaker 4: Remember I told you about it on Amy's on It.
Speaker 1: It was great and it cleaned up and was super
Speaker 1: surprised and super happy that Hacks won for Best Comedy.
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out all about that, what you missed
Speaker 1: if you missed it, and get a recap from ABC's
Speaker 1: Jason Nathanson. That's coming up before the bottom of the hour.
Speaker 1: Here's what's ahead on Wake Up Call. For the second
Speaker 1: time in two months, an attempt has been made on
Speaker 1: former President Trump's life. The Secret Services agents fired at
Speaker 1: a man with an AK style rifle who was about
Speaker 1: four to five hundred yards away from Trump. He was
Speaker 1: playing golf at the Trump International Golf Course in Paul
Speaker 1: Palm Beach County yesterday. S Yeah, I told you, I
Speaker 1: got to get my food. The suspected shooter took off
Speaker 1: in an suv but was arrested in a neighboring county.
Speaker 1: We're gonna be talking with ABC Stephen Portnoy more about
Speaker 1: the shooting, what we know about the would be shooter.
Speaker 1: Coming up at five point twenty. Did you feel it
Speaker 1: there was some more rumbling in the Southland. A three
Speaker 1: point six quake shook Malibu this morning. The US Geological
Speaker 1: surveyces the quake happened at four twenty two, about four
Speaker 1: miles north of Malibu. That's near where a four point
Speaker 1: seven quake shook the area last Thursday. We're gonna be
Speaker 1: talking with US Geological Survey seismologist Susan Huff about what's
Speaker 1: up with all the shaking we've been having. Some residents
Speaker 1: on the northern side of Palas Verdi's estates are about
Speaker 1: to get their power and gas service shut off. The city,
Speaker 1: says SoCal Edison is cutting city service to Rolling Hills
Speaker 1: the state's residents no later than Wednesday at six because
Speaker 1: of the shifting land at six five. It's handle on
Speaker 1: the news just in time for the Emmys. Disney and
Speaker 1: Direct TV struck a deal. Let's get started with some
Speaker 1: of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four
Speaker 1: hour newsroom. Members of Congress have requested a briefing with
Speaker 1: the Secret Service to learn the details of the second
Speaker 1: attempted assassination of former President Trump. He was at Trump
Speaker 1: International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida, yesterday when
Speaker 1: police say an agent saw a person with a rifle
Speaker 1: and some bushes.
Speaker 6: That'd immediately engaged that individual.
Speaker 1: Palm Beach County Sheriff Rick Bradshaw says shots were fired
Speaker 1: and the man took off. A witness told police about
Speaker 1: the alleged shooter's car and it was stopped in neighboring
Speaker 1: Martin County.
Speaker 6: In the bushes where this guy was is a eight
Speaker 6: K forty seven style rifle with a scope, two backpacks
Speaker 6: which were hung on the fifths that had a ceramic
Speaker 6: tile in him had a go pro.
Speaker 1: ABC News says officials are looking into whether the guy arrested,
Speaker 1: Ryan Ruth, had grievances related to Ukraine and was from
Speaker 1: strated with Trump's position on the war with Russia. News
Speaker 1: brought to you by Benjamin Moore. Human skeletal remains have
Speaker 1: been found in running springs in an area of the
Speaker 1: fire that started in Highland. Investigators in San Bernardino County
Speaker 1: say the remains were found Saturday afternoon by deputies who
Speaker 1: were on what they call a proactive patrol of an
Speaker 1: area that's closed off Highway three thirty. Officials say the
Speaker 1: bones appeared to have been in the area for quite
Speaker 1: a while and investigators don't believe the death is related
Speaker 1: to the fire. Showgun showed just about everyone up. At
Speaker 1: the seventy sixth Annual Emmy.
Speaker 7: Awards, Showgun won Outstanding Drama and Lead Actor for harro
Speaker 7: Yuki Sonata and Lead Actress for Anna sa Y. It
Speaker 7: also broke the record for most wins by a show

Speaker 7: Jeremy Allen White. Tony Foster won her first ever Emmy Award,
Speaker 7: taking home the prize for her role in True Detective
Speaker 7: Night Country. She expressed her gratitude to the native people
Speaker 7: in northern Alaska.

Speaker 5: was just a blessing.
Speaker 7: Baby Reindeer one Outstanding Limited Series. Greater and star Richard
Speaker 7: Gadd had some inspirational words in his acceptance speech.
Speaker 2: Take Risks, Push Boundaries, explore the uncomfortable dance have failed
Speaker 2: in order.
Speaker 7: To achieve, and Hacks beat out The Bear for Best
Speaker 7: Comedy Series and Best Lead Actress.
Speaker 4: Jeane Smart was taking it all in stride.
Speaker 5: I appreciate this because I just don't get enough attention.
Speaker 4: Heather Brooker, can you find news.
Speaker 1: It's five oh seven on your Monday morning wake up call.
Speaker 1: Let's say good morning to ABC's Geordana Miller. I'm going
Speaker 1: to say it right for one time, Geordana. I'm going
Speaker 1: to get it. Eventually. It's only been a year and
Speaker 1: I still just gravitate back to Jordana. Yeah, Okay, onto
Speaker 1: more serious things. Huti's fired a barrage of rockets into Israel.
Speaker 9: Well, the huties fired. They've been firing barrages of rockets,
Speaker 9: but one actually evaded Israel's air defense systems on Sunday
Speaker 9: and contral Israel. It appears that an interception. There were
Speaker 9: several attempts that failed. One hit the rocket that didn't
Speaker 9: destroy it. It fell at the edge of a forest
Speaker 9: not far from Tel Aviv, not far from the international airport. Thankfully,
Speaker 9: no injuries, some fires that broke out from different shrapnel.
Speaker 9: But now we're in another situation where you know everybody
Speaker 9: is waiting because he is really Prime Minister and said
Speaker 9: he will respond to this stripe. And remember last time
Speaker 9: the Huti's managed to evade the General's air defense system.
Speaker 9: They fired a drone that hit a building in Tel
Speaker 9: Aviv actually not far from the US embassy there, the
Speaker 9: US Consulate building, and killed one Israeli and shortly thereafter,
Speaker 9: less than forty eight hours later, Israel bombed the port
Speaker 9: in Yemen how Dada, which is used merely by the Houtis,
Speaker 9: but for it is still not fully operational since that
Speaker 9: bombing in July, so we're waiting to see what happens.
Speaker 4: This was a.
Speaker 9: Blunder by the Israeli Army, by their air defense systems,
Speaker 9: and they're also investigating that.
Speaker 1: Okay, And you say it was a blunder because it
Speaker 1: didn't catch all the rockets, is that right.
Speaker 9: Well, well, there was one that was fired, only one
Speaker 9: actually managed to enter Israeli airspace. And the question is
Speaker 9: why the Israelis didn't pick it up. It had extremely
Speaker 9: long trajectory. It was flew for over twelve hundred miles
Speaker 9: and it was in the air for somewhere around twelve minutes,
Speaker 9: so that it wasn't picked up and intercepted along its
Speaker 9: flight path Fisher is a major question. And you know,
Speaker 9: overall Israel and the United States have done a pretty
Speaker 9: good job of shooting down Yeah, the missiles that have
Speaker 9: come from the houtis right. This is an Iranian backed
Speaker 9: group that has been attacking see out of what they
Speaker 9: call solidarity for the gous of war. They've done a
Speaker 9: lot of damage, but Israel and the United States have
Speaker 9: shot down dozens of their missiles and rockets and drones,
Speaker 9: but this one somehow got through. So it is a
Speaker 9: failure and Israel is going to They already have opened
Speaker 9: up the probe.
Speaker 1: Okay, and Jordana, is the system failing or is it
Speaker 1: getting overwhelmed or that's what the investigation is going.
Speaker 4: To look at.
Speaker 9: I mean, that's what the investigation is going to look at.
Speaker 9: It looks like it was it was detected, but it
Speaker 9: was probably some sort of human error that it wasn't
Speaker 9: It wasn't put in the category of we need to
Speaker 9: shoot this down now. I mean, sometimes the system will
Speaker 9: you know, put in input threats and then they have
Speaker 9: to be watched and monitoring and a decision, a decision
Speaker 9: has to be made, you know, we'll have to see
Speaker 9: and look. I think it was a human error that
Speaker 9: it wasn't detected sooner.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 1: And you mentioned that both Israeli and US forces have
Speaker 1: shut down incoming rockets. Are they doing that. Is that
Speaker 1: just like in the is there the US part of
Speaker 1: it anyway? Is that just the Yemen part of it,
Speaker 1: or is the US assisting with shooting.
Speaker 4: Down rockets that are headed into Israel as well?
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's a good question. I mean, the main bad
Speaker 9: actors who are finding firing into Israel right are the Hasbolah,
Speaker 9: the Love and you know that's shut on Israel's northern border.
Speaker 9: Those are not really US forces aren't needed for that.
Speaker 9: Israel's taking care of that. It's a low grade kind
Speaker 9: of war already. But the ones that are coming from
Speaker 9: the Red Sea are primarily shot over by Iranian back
Speaker 9: level group, the Hutis and in that instance, and they've
Speaker 9: been firing since. You know, if you go and look
Speaker 9: at Sencom's Twitter, for example, you'll see probably twice a week.
Speaker 9: It doesn't make headlines, but often the warships that are
Speaker 9: there in the Red Sea are shooting down incoming drones
Speaker 9: or missiles. Sometimes they're fired towards israel southern city of
Speaker 9: a lot. Sometimes they're fired through the east, you know,
Speaker 9: you know, coming over for example, heading over towards Jordan
Speaker 9: to enter Israel, and one drone was fired and came
Speaker 9: through the west right over the water and hit a
Speaker 9: building in Tel Aviv and that was that was a
Speaker 9: deadly strike, right with one civilian killed. So this has
Speaker 9: been a persistent threat. And again it's not only Israel.
Speaker 9: The hooties have caused billions of dollars in damage to
Speaker 9: shipping vessels and to just trade. There have been companies
Speaker 9: that have stopped trading stuff up or cut that cup
Speaker 9: back because of the threat of UTI strikes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're right, we don't hear about those what's
Speaker 1: going on in the oceans and the waterways anymore. It
Speaker 1: was we heard about it all the time for a while,
Speaker 1: but it just sort of it got out of the
Speaker 1: news cycle. So thank you for you know, updating us
Speaker 1: that it's still going on and we're still actively making
Speaker 1: sure that people get safe passage through. Jordana George, Donna Miller,
Speaker 1: thank you so much. I don't know why I have
Speaker 1: such a brain lock on your name, but.
Speaker 9: It's all good.
Speaker 4: It's not a lack of respect.
Speaker 1: I promise, I promise it's not a lack of respect
Speaker 1: because I appreciate everything.
Speaker 9: You don't worry about it. There's so many more important
Speaker 9: things to get right in the world right now.
Speaker 4: Jordana, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Let's get back to some of the stories coming out
Speaker 1: of the KFI twenty four hour news from. Firefighters have
Speaker 1: made more progress on the three fires burning in southern California.
Speaker 1: More than eight thousand firefighters working to stop the fires
Speaker 1: which started during the recent heat wave. The fire that
Speaker 1: was sparked in San Gabriel Canyon and has burned into
Speaker 1: San Bernardino County has burned nearly fifty five thousand acres.
Speaker 1: It's nine percent surrounded. Evacuation Orders are still in effect
Speaker 1: in Mount Baldy and right Wood. The fire from that
Speaker 1: started in Highland is forty two percent surrounded.
Speaker 4: That's good news.
Speaker 1: It's burned nearly thirty nine thousand acres. Most evacuation orders
Speaker 1: have been downgraded to warnings, but there are still some
Speaker 1: evacuation orders in place east of Highway three thirty to
Speaker 1: Summer Trail Place and north of Highland Avenue. The fire
Speaker 1: in Tribuco Canyon in Orange County that has spread into
Speaker 1: Riverside County is nineteen percent surrounded. It's burned just under
Speaker 1: twenty four thousand acres. In Orange County, the areas of
Speaker 1: Casper Regional Park, San Juan Springs and the Blue Jay
Speaker 1: Campground remain under evacuation orders. A woman in Long Beach
Speaker 1: has been stabbed to death by a man police say
Speaker 1: she was dating. A burglary was reported early yesterday at
Speaker 1: the Gate community where the woman lived. Police say the
Speaker 1: woman was found lying in the street. She'd been stabbed
Speaker 1: several times and died at the scene. Her accused killer,
Speaker 1: Leonard Rolls Junior, was arrested for murder. He's being held
Speaker 1: on two million dollars bail. A deal reached over the
Speaker 1: weekend means DirecTV customers can once again get ESPN, ABC,
Speaker 1: and other Disney owned channels. DirecTV and Uverse customers lost
Speaker 1: the programming when contract talks broke down at the start
Speaker 1: of the month. Thousands of directvs more than ten million
Speaker 1: subscribers canceled their service during the blackout, and agreement in
Speaker 1: principle was reached on Saturday. DirecTV alerted subscribers and plans
Speaker 1: to raise prices on some bundles next month because of
Speaker 1: higher programming costs. Yeah, I got that notification already. Human
Speaker 1: skeletal remains have been found off Highway three thirty and
Speaker 1: Running Springs in an area that has been closed because
Speaker 1: the fire burning in the San Bernardino Mountains. Officials say
Speaker 1: they don't believe the remains found are related to the fire.
Speaker 1: The person hasn't yet been ident The fire burning in
Speaker 1: Orange and Riverside County has destroyed eighty two homes and
Speaker 1: other buildings. It's burned more than twenty three thousand acres
Speaker 1: and is nineteen percent surrounded. Fourteen people have been injured

Speaker 1: spreading the rumor that Haitian immigrants were eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.
Speaker 4: Bill's going to tell you why. Right now.
Speaker 1: Let's say good morning to ABC's Stephen portnoy So Steven.
Speaker 1: A second attempt apparently has been made on President Trump's life.
Speaker 4: For President Trump's.
Speaker 10: Life, Yeah, the big story of the morning. Yeah, so
Speaker 10: overnight we learned the identity of the suspect, fifty eight
Speaker 10: year old Ryan Wesley Routh is his name, of Greensboro,
Speaker 10: North Carolina, also with ties to Hawaii. He had something
Speaker 10: of a preoccupation, you might even say, obsession with the
Speaker 10: war in Ukraine, and so that's a key area of
Speaker 10: interest for investigators looking at whether he had a motivation
Speaker 10: based on Trump's position on Ukraine. Maybe maybe not. Lots
Speaker 10: of questions about how he was able to get a
Speaker 10: quarter mile from the former president on the perimeter of
Speaker 10: the golf course while Trump was there, and how he
Speaker 10: even knew Trump was there, because that was not something
Speaker 10: that was publicly announced. It was sort of, as far
Speaker 10: as we are told, a spur of the moment thing
Speaker 10: on Trump's part to say, hey, let's go golfing today,
Speaker 10: something he's wont to do on a Saturday. But how
Speaker 10: did this man even know that Trump was in South Florida?
Speaker 1: That is I mean, like, was he just camping out?
Speaker 1: Does he have an inside source? Great questions and we
Speaker 1: don't know I did hear that his son said that
Speaker 1: his dad isn't a violent person but hates Trump.
Speaker 3: That's Rauth's son. You look.
Speaker 10: Ralth Son did an interview, I think with a Daily
Speaker 10: Mail in which he said, this doesn't sound like my dad.
Speaker 3: My dad's a peaceful person.
Speaker 10: But also, here are all the reasons why America is an
Speaker 10: awful place under the constitution we have blah.
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah. I'm paraphrasing.
Speaker 10: Yeah, Look, there'll be lots of questions about this man's motivation,
Speaker 10: his mental health state, his interest in Ukraine. To describe him,
Speaker 10: I've seen photographs white, shock hair, bleach blonde, even he
Speaker 10: often would appear with an American flag around his neck
Speaker 10: like a scarf. Those who have spoken to him, and
Speaker 10: he did a number of interviews over the years, particularly
Speaker 10: with respect to his interest in Ukraine really interesting there.
Speaker 4: Yes, he was in Kiev a couple of years ago or.
Speaker 10: So well, apparently, yes, and he descried He's described by
Speaker 10: those who encountered him as something of a character, someone
Speaker 10: who's sort of a magnet for who would go up
Speaker 10: to him and find him interesting and talk to him
Speaker 10: right away because of his appearance and just his nature. He,
Speaker 10: as I say, was obsessed with the war in Ukraine
Speaker 10: and tried to aggressively recruit foreigners to travel to Ukraine
Speaker 10: to take up arms against Putin's forces there, not just Americans,
Speaker 10: but also interestingly Afghans. He's been trying to get them
Speaker 10: engaged to travel from their country to fight in another
Speaker 10: country's war.
Speaker 4: So does he have a military background, Stephen, or do
Speaker 4: we know.
Speaker 3: Any I'm not aware of one, all right.
Speaker 1: So getting back to what happened, luckily didn't happen yesterday,
Speaker 1: we heard that shots were fired, but it appears that
Speaker 1: they weren't fired from his gun.
Speaker 10: There were apparently some shellcasings found nearby from the AK
Speaker 10: forty seven, but it's not clear whether they were freshly
Speaker 10: fired or maybe just something he had in his bag.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 10: What we do know is that the Secret Service was
Speaker 10: able to get forty six rounds off and that was
Speaker 10: enough to get the man to run away. The most
Speaker 10: remarkable aspect of the story was something highlighted by the
Speaker 10: Palm Beach County Sheriff yesterday. The technology that was used
Speaker 10: to find this man. A passerby took a photograph of
Speaker 10: a man who jumped out of the bushes and drove
Speaker 10: away in his car. The photograph of the SUV had
Speaker 10: the license plate number. They used the license plate readers
Speaker 10: that they now have along the highways in South Florida
Speaker 10: to identify and locate the car as it was a
Speaker 10: heading north on Interstate ninety five.
Speaker 3: Think of that.
Speaker 10: I mean they were able to as the man's going
Speaker 10: at speed on the interstate, they were able to find
Speaker 10: him and stop him, and they arrested him without incident.
Speaker 10: So he survived all this and now he'll maybe be
Speaker 10: able to ads if he's willing answer questions.
Speaker 1: Okay, And then another question for you about Trump's security,
Speaker 1: because now everybody's going, oh, the Secret Service failed again.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, how this one's a a stretch though,
Speaker 1: because if the guy was hiding in the bushes and
Speaker 1: they just happened to see a rifle barrel sticking out
Speaker 1: from the bushes and that's how they spotted the guy,
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you cover that large of a perimeter.
Speaker 1: And has his Secret Service detail been increased since the
Speaker 1: last attempt or is it about the same.
Speaker 10: Well, I don't know about the number of personnel, but
Speaker 10: I do know that the Secret Service has talked about
Speaker 10: how it has enhanced security around Trump since the July
Speaker 10: thirteenth attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. There is a question about
Speaker 10: whether the security around Trump should be what it was
Speaker 10: when he was the sitting president, and there are reasons
Speaker 10: why you would not want or why the Secret Service
Speaker 10: would not be positioned for that. One is that Donald
Speaker 10: Trump is a former president as significant as a figure.
Speaker 10: He is an American life and our current electoral process
Speaker 10: is not in the command and control structure of the
Speaker 10: US military at this moment. He is the prospective future president,
Speaker 10: but that's up to the voters first. And so there's
Speaker 10: the idea that, you know, the institution of the presidency
Speaker 10: itself is worthy of more protection than those who would
Speaker 10: serve in the role. And beyond that, there is the
Speaker 10: question of the fact that, look, Donald Trump yesterday didn't
Speaker 10: apparently have a long standing plan to go golfing. It
Speaker 10: was sort of a spur of the moment thing. He
Speaker 10: lives five miles away. He does this from time to time.
Speaker 10: Maybe that's a vulnerability that has been identified here. But
Speaker 10: you know, I will tell you that even when he
Speaker 10: was a sitting president, I used to go to Mara
Speaker 10: A Lago to cover him there. And I remember he
Speaker 10: would go to Trump International Golf Club in West Palm
Speaker 10: Beach and we would be in the press. We would
Speaker 10: positioned the pool which follows the president would be positioned
Speaker 10: at the library which is across the street. And yes,
Speaker 10: there would be shutdowns of the streets. But I don't
Speaker 10: know necessarily that while he was on the golf course
Speaker 10: that the streets around the golf course, which you can
Speaker 10: see on Google Maps, there are thoroughfares all around it,
Speaker 10: around the perimeter. I don't know that the streets were
Speaker 10: necessarily locked down. What I can tell you is that
Speaker 10: a sitting president would have aerial assets from the military
Speaker 10: and from the Secret Service that would be overhead. That
Speaker 10: might be to identify a threat from the air that
Speaker 10: you could see on the ground. Hey, who's that sub
Speaker 10: It's pulled over on the side of the road. Here,
Speaker 10: what's that guy in the bushes? And that is something
Speaker 10: that may have been lacking yesterday, and it may have
Speaker 10: been a function of the fact that Trump, at the
Speaker 10: last minute, decided to go golfing. Nevertheless, there are questions
Speaker 10: about what the Secret Service can do in a moment
Speaker 10: like that. What it should be expected to do, and
Speaker 10: lawmakers are asking whether the Secret Service needs more more
Speaker 10: not just it doesn't need more authority, it needs more resources.
Speaker 10: And that's a question that I'm not positioned to answer
Speaker 10: this morning.
Speaker 1: Okay, Stephen Portinoy, Thanks, We're going to be listening for answers,
Speaker 1: but you provided several for us, and we appreciate it.
Speaker 4: You bet all right.

Speaker 11: The Disney saw success here and quickly outgrew the space.
Speaker 11: The bungalow is now home to a skate shop in
Speaker 11: downtown LA. Michael Monks KFI News.
Speaker 1: Vice presidential candidate jd Vance's former President Trump is in
Speaker 1: amazingly good spirits following a second assassination attempt in two months.
Speaker 1: Van says Trump told him he'd be hugging his kids
Speaker 1: Extra Titan, saying a prayer of gratitude. Firefighters are making
Speaker 1: slow but steady progress against the fire burning near right
Speaker 1: Wood and Mount Baldy. The fire has destroyed forty nine
Speaker 1: homes and buildings and is threatening twelve thousand more. It's
Speaker 1: burned about fifty five thousand acres and is nine percent surrounded.
Speaker 1: The Chargers, under new head coach Jim Harbaugh, are two
Speaker 1: and oh after beating the Carolina Panthers twenty six to three.
Speaker 1: The Rams, on the other hand, are starting their season
Speaker 1: at zero to two following a big forty one to
Speaker 1: ten loss in Arizona. And fifty ABC's Jason Nathanson, we'll
Speaker 1: have the scoop from the Emmys, the big winners, the
Speaker 1: big losers, any big surprises, and any big snubs too.
Speaker 4: Right now, let's.
Speaker 1: Say good morning to US Geological Survey seismologists. Susan huffs Susan,
Speaker 1: thanks so much for getting up early with us this morning.
Speaker 5: Oh you're welcome, and I'm usually up early.
Speaker 4: Oh good.
Speaker 1: Well, then we'll know that we can call you anytime
Speaker 1: like this morning when we have we had another little
Speaker 1: shaking this morning in Malibu.
Speaker 3: We did.
Speaker 5: They've actually been fifty five after shock since the four
Speaker 5: point seven. Most of them are too small to feel,
Speaker 5: so you don't know about them. You only know about
Speaker 5: them when they get over three then people start to
Speaker 5: feel them. Yes, but it was a three point six,
Speaker 5: and it's having an after shock sequence that has been recorded,
Speaker 5: and we have actual probabilities of future after shocks which
Speaker 5: are expected at this point.
Speaker 1: Okay, so we're expecting after shots. But I think a
Speaker 1: lot of the big question that people have been saying
Speaker 1: is and we I think we've talked about this before,
Speaker 1: but people say some people say, hey, if you have
Speaker 1: a bunch of smaller quakes, it could relieve pressure on
Speaker 1: the fault.
Speaker 4: But that's not really how it works, right.
Speaker 5: Right, the little quakes are too small to be any
Speaker 5: kind of safety valve. We know that's not true, and
Speaker 5: little quakes do increase the odds slightly of bigger earthquakes,
Speaker 5: and that's the statistics that we use to make these
Speaker 5: after shock forecasts. And even for shock probabilities, what are
Speaker 5: the odds that one of these earthquakes will be a
Speaker 5: four shock? We actually can calculate those probabilities.
Speaker 1: Okay, And do we have any probabilities for this round
Speaker 1: of quakes?
Speaker 5: We do, and they were calculated pretty immediately go down
Speaker 5: in time. If you don't, if you're going to have
Speaker 5: something bigger, it's usually very close to the first quake,
Speaker 5: So the four point seven and over time, the more
Speaker 5: time to spy, the better it is. So right now,
Speaker 5: the odds of a five or above are under one
Speaker 5: in one hundred, so that's obviously a low number. The
Speaker 5: odds of another four in the next week or so
Speaker 5: we're about one in twelve, so that wouldn't be too surprising. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: there is a point. You know, we estimate these low
Speaker 5: numbers one in one hundred. That sounds comforting. It's not zero.
Speaker 5: And you know, people, we live in a great country
Speaker 5: and you know it's something bigger could happen. We don't
Speaker 5: expect it, but people always need to be on their
Speaker 5: toes and take these little earthquakes as reminders of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, And speaking of the reminders, because you said
Speaker 1: we are in earthquake country, maybe we need the reminders though,
Speaker 1: so it can get baked into our brains, Like if
Speaker 1: you don't have any shaking at all, we kind of
Speaker 1: just tend to forget things, don't you. So maybe the
Speaker 1: little quakes are sort of a wake up call to
Speaker 1: get ready because there's probably going to be a big
Speaker 1: quate at some point.
Speaker 5: At some point, there definitely will. And yeah, that's an
Speaker 5: excellent point. But also I saw somebody on Twitter saying, well,
Speaker 5: I dropped cover hold on what's the point because by
Speaker 5: the time you take that action, the shakings over. Well,
Speaker 5: the point is you want to be in a safe
Speaker 5: place if it gets worse before it gets better, and
Speaker 5: that's going to be infrequent, but you know, dropping covering
Speaker 5: if you can get into your table, if you get
Speaker 5: under your desk, covering your head, if you're disabled, try
Speaker 5: to protect your head as best you can, moog away
Speaker 5: from windows. That action can be really important if the
Speaker 5: earthquake is a larger one.
Speaker 1: Okay, And so you mentioned the shake alert when we
Speaker 1: had the quake last week, which was on Thursday morning,
Speaker 1: happened like right when I was starting a newscast, and
Speaker 1: we're all kind of looking around, going is that someone
Speaker 1: running in the building or is that an earthquake? And
Speaker 1: then about five or six seconds later, then I got
Speaker 1: the shake alert after I already felt to the shaking.
Speaker 1: So how come I didn't get it ahead of time
Speaker 1: because the last one, and I think the last time
Speaker 1: we talked, we got the shake alert before the quake.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so the shake alert really wasn't designed to give
Speaker 5: people heads up. For a four and a half, it's
Speaker 5: pretty close to you. Those earthquakes aren't going to be damaging.
Speaker 5: So what it's really aiming to do is if a
Speaker 5: bigger earthquake happens, it's likely to happen some distance from you,
Speaker 5: so the system has a few seconds to record it,
Speaker 5: get a warning out, and get the heads up to people.
Speaker 5: If you're very close to a four and a half,
Speaker 5: or you feel gentle shaking, you know, fifty miles away,
Speaker 5: that's really not what the system is designed to do.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So if we don't get ahead, if
Speaker 1: we get it ahead of time, we should be more
Speaker 1: worried than if we get it when it starts.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if that's a fair statement.
Speaker 1: Okay, super well, thank you so much for the information, Susan.
Speaker 1: I look, well, let's see, I always look forward to
Speaker 1: talking to you, but I'm afraid that the next time
Speaker 1: we talk to you is the next time we're going
Speaker 1: to have an earthquake. So I hope we don't talk
Speaker 1: to you for a really long time.
Speaker 5: That sounds great to me.
Speaker 4: That being said, we love talking to you.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for making the time to talk
Speaker 1: to us this morning, Susan.
Speaker 5: Thank yeah, You're welcome.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get back to some of the stories
Speaker 1: coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. More
Speaker 1: homes on the Palace Verdes Peninsula are set to lose
Speaker 1: power and gas because of the shifting land. The latest
Speaker 1: shutoffs will affect people in Rolling Hills. So Cal Edison
Speaker 1: notified customers over the weekend that their utilities would be
Speaker 1: turned off indefinitely by Wednesday at six pm. More than
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty homes in Rancho Palace Verdi's have
Speaker 1: already had their services shut off. Governor Newsom declared a
Speaker 1: state of emergency for the area. Earlier this month, a
Speaker 1: homeless man convicted of beating and sexually assaulting two women
Speaker 1: near the canals in Venice, killing one of them. Has
Speaker 1: been sentenced to life in prison plus one hundred years.
Speaker 1: Anthony Jones was sentenced on Friday for the attacks that
Speaker 1: happened in April. One woman's injuries were so bad she
Speaker 1: was declared brain dead and was eventually taken off life support.
Speaker 1: The other woman suffered traumatic injuries to her face and chest.
Speaker 1: Jones pleaded no contest to charges that included murder, forcible rape,
Speaker 1: and torture. He also admitted to special allegations that he
Speaker 1: kidnapped the women and killed one while committing rape. Members
Speaker 1: of Congress say they want to hear from the Secret
Speaker 1: Service about the second attempted assassination of former President Trump.
Speaker 1: He was golfing yesterday at Trump International Golf Course in Florida,
Speaker 1: but it was not on his public schedule. Palm Beach
Speaker 1: County Sheriff Rick Bradshaw says the would be shooter's rifle
Speaker 1: was spotted in some bushes along the fence yesterday, not
Speaker 1: far from the former president.
Speaker 6: Probably between three and five hundred yards, But with a
Speaker 6: rifle and a scope.
Speaker 3: Like that, that's not.
Speaker 4: A long distance, he says.
Speaker 1: Secret Service agents noticed the assault style rifle and shots
Speaker 1: were fired. The guy took off, but was stopped and
Speaker 1: arrested in neighboring Martin County. The sheriff says the rifle,
Speaker 1: two backpacks, and a go pro camera were found. So
Speaker 1: you know how everybody's been chained. Not everybody, but a
Speaker 1: lot of sports teams have been changing names because they
Speaker 1: say that you know, they're they're disparaging to Native American populations.
Speaker 1: So like, for example, the NBA, the Philadelphia Warriors dropped
Speaker 1: their logo, which apparently was featured a Native American, but
Speaker 1: kept the name. The Cleveland Indians became the Guardians. The
Speaker 1: Washington Redskins are the Commanders now, the Braves from Atlanta,
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs Kansas City. They're holding onto their names,
Speaker 1: at least for now. In twenty nineteen, Little League mandated
Speaker 1: that all derogatory names, as they called them, had to
Speaker 1: be removed. Here's but I think is an interesting thing.
Speaker 1: Like when you talk about a brave or a chief
Speaker 1: or a warrior, that's not disparaging to me personally, Like
Speaker 1: I think that that shows toughness and hutsba and fighting
Speaker 1: and that kind of stuff. But it's become a huge thing. Well,
Speaker 1: here's an interesting side note to all that. The family
Speaker 1: of the Blackfeet Chief, who served as the face of
Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins for forty eight years, you remember the logo,
Speaker 1: They want his image back in the NFL. The descendants
Speaker 1: of John two Guns white Calf also want his life
Speaker 1: story retold to a new generation of Americans who are
Speaker 1: looking for unity and value multiculturalism. The White Calf family
Speaker 1: has support in DC from one of their senators, from Montana,
Speaker 1: and from the NFL franchise itself, of course, now known
Speaker 1: as the Washington Commanders. But again important not to forget
Speaker 1: our past. And it's the black Feet Chief and they
Speaker 1: want him back in the NFL.
Speaker 4: So we'll see what happens with that.
Speaker 1: Biologists are investigating if ash from the fire burning in
Speaker 1: Orange and Riverside County has caused a fish die off
Speaker 1: at Lake Elsin or thousands of threadfin shad have died
Speaker 1: in the lake recently. Biologists say it could be linked
Speaker 1: to changes in water temperature and oxygen levels. Firefighters have
Speaker 1: deadlines around thirty six percent of the fire that's burned over.
Speaker 1: Actually it's up to over forty percent of the fire
Speaker 1: that's burned in the San Bernardino Mountains. Several neighborhoods remain
Speaker 1: under evacuation orders. Regulators have issued an air quality advisory
Speaker 1: until at least eleven tonight for most of the Southland
Speaker 1: because of the smoke from the three major wildfires.
Speaker 4: A federal appeals court is set to.
Speaker 1: Hear arguments on challenges to a law that would ban
Speaker 1: TikTok in the US if the video sharing app doesn't
Speaker 1: divest from its Chinese owner. A group of TikTok platform
Speaker 1: creators filed the lawsuit to block the law from taking effect.
Speaker 1: SA it's unconstitutional. Let's say good morning to ABC's Jason Nathanson,
Speaker 1: who's probably running on fumes at this point.
Speaker 4: Morning.
Speaker 3: Jason, I'm very excited.
Speaker 4: You are running on fumes, aren't you.
Speaker 3: No, I'm good.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 5: So we got.
Speaker 1: Emmy seventy six Emmys, and as I was just talking
Speaker 1: to wake up Call listeners, I am thrilled that I
Speaker 1: watch Showgun because it pretty much cleaned up it did.
Speaker 2: It continued its record of it had won already fourteen
Speaker 2: at the pre Emmys last weekend and added another.
Speaker 11: Four to.
Speaker 3: To its takeaway.
Speaker 2: So that's eighteen, which is the record for in a
Speaker 2: single year for any show. We knew that it was
Speaker 2: going to win, although it seemed a little bit like
Speaker 2: it could go a different way because at one point
Speaker 2: Slow Horses won for Best Riding.
Speaker 3: That's an Apple TV Plus show.
Speaker 2: I think it's in its fourth season now starring Gary Oldman.
Speaker 2: And when as best writing goes, often the major awards
Speaker 2: will go. So when Slow Horses one, we're like, is
Speaker 2: there going to be an upset?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: That did not prove to be the case in that category,
Speaker 2: although we'll talk about later where it did prove to
Speaker 2: be the case.
Speaker 3: But Showgun did win.
Speaker 2: It was the first non English language show to win
Speaker 2: the Emmy for for Best Drama. And then you also
Speaker 2: had royky Sonata who won as well for Lead Actor
Speaker 2: for that show and an A so y An. So
Speaker 2: why the first actress of Asian descent to that category. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she's good to give a great speech last night, So
Speaker 2: so so did he, so did so did pretty much everybody,
Speaker 2: including Justin Marks, who's the co creator of the show,
Speaker 2: who talked to thanked the the executives at FX for
Speaker 2: even making it in the first place.
Speaker 8: You guys greenlit a very expensive titled Japanese period piece
Speaker 8: whose central climax was revolves around a poetry competition.
Speaker 3: I have no.
Speaker 8: Idea why you did that, but thank you for your
Speaker 8: faith in this incredible team.
Speaker 2: And that's kind of indicative. We heard Richard Gadd say
Speaker 2: something similar. He's the creator of Baby Reindeer Executives. They
Speaker 2: are taking chances right, and streaming is allowing them to
Speaker 2: do that, and that's allowing a lot of these shows
Speaker 2: to be very good and then to win Emmys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so for you, what, what was the best part
Speaker 1: of the Emmy's last night.
Speaker 3: Hacks winning right Cheer Best Comedy. I was so excited, Yeah,
Speaker 3: very excited about that.
Speaker 2: So that's the other show that I was talking about
Speaker 2: where best writing actually did indicate, because at the beginning
Speaker 2: of the show, I mean, let's set the table. The
Speaker 2: bear goes into the night with the most nominations ever
Speaker 2: for comedy twenty three Haven't You Been just not a
Speaker 2: comedy even though it's not a comedy, having just won
Speaker 2: in the previous year the Emmys earlier this year, which
Speaker 2: were last year's Emmys ten which was the most ever
Speaker 2: in a year by a singer comedy show, and then
Speaker 2: it started out the night, winning three of the four
Speaker 2: acting categories, and you're like, okay, here's another route for
Speaker 2: the Bear.
Speaker 3: And you know, again, that's fine.
Speaker 2: Whether it's a comedy or not. We've talked about on
Speaker 2: the show. I don't think it is, and you know,
Speaker 2: but whatever, it's nominated in the comedy category. It's a
Speaker 2: really good show and they want to celebrate it.
Speaker 3: So fine. They do that with the acting wins. But then.
Speaker 2: Hacks Jeane Smart wins for Hacks for Best Actress over
Speaker 2: Ioid every from the Bear, which was the first sign. Okay,
Speaker 2: but Jean Smart is won before for Hacks, and the
Speaker 2: Emmys do lock onto something.
Speaker 3: When they lock onto something, they usually award it over
Speaker 3: and over again.
Speaker 2: And then Hacks one for Best Writing over the Bear,
Speaker 2: and that was the first sign h something might be
Speaker 2: up here. But still the Bear went on to win eleven,
Speaker 2: beating its own record of most wins in it for
Speaker 2: a comedy in a single series a season, so you
Speaker 2: know it's the Emmy still did show a lot of
Speaker 2: love for the Bear. But Hacks winning Best Comedy was
Speaker 2: was really great. And Lucia and Ielo, who's the one
Speaker 2: of the co creators of the show, talked about the
Speaker 2: power of comedy during her speech.
Speaker 7: But we really feel like it can bridge divide. When
Speaker 7: you laugh with someone, you have something in common with them.
Speaker 5: So please support comedy.
Speaker 3: It speaks true to power. And she also said support
Speaker 3: your local comedian.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I hate that they're trying to walk her off.
Speaker 1: That speech wasn't very long. I mean, I know they've
Speaker 1: tightened up on that, but when you win the big one,
Speaker 1: they should plan for it that they get a little
Speaker 1: extra time.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So you know, there's three co creators of the show,
Speaker 2: Paul Downs who's also on the show, Lucia and Ilo
Speaker 2: and Jenstatski, and Paul spoke first, so he took up
Speaker 2: the majority of the time. Yeah, and Lucia and Paul
Speaker 2: are married, so you know, I don't know if she
Speaker 2: was ma when they got home. They did, and Jen
Speaker 2: didn't even get a chance to speak at all. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so you know, but I do. I hate it too,
Speaker 2: especially since that was the last award.
Speaker 3: Of the night. We've been waiting for that moment.
Speaker 2: If you look at the rundown of the show, they
Speaker 2: had actually the factor in for thirteen minutes of going
Speaker 2: long past eight o'clock here in la and they were
Speaker 2: actually a little early. I think it was like eight
Speaker 2: oh seven, eight oh eight, something like that. But but again,
Speaker 2: those are the awards we want to see and we
Speaker 2: want to see them win.
Speaker 3: And also there was they started to play off the
Speaker 3: guys behind Showgun as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they smartly decided to stop the music when
Speaker 2: Hiroyuki Sonata was speaking. He was speaking in Japanese and
Speaker 2: it had to be translated, and it was a very
Speaker 2: it was interesting and touching moment. And this is the
Speaker 2: first series to ever win for a non English language show.
Speaker 2: And they're cutting off the guy right when he's trying
Speaker 2: to make his you know, and what are you doing?
Speaker 1: You know, they've been doing this for seventy six years.
Speaker 1: You think that they would get it. They'd figure it out.
Speaker 2: The Emmys and most award shows are generally not good television,
Speaker 2: which is kind of like which is kind of like,
Speaker 2: you're an award show about TV, celebrating TV, but the
Speaker 2: show itself ain't great television. And you know, as we
Speaker 2: talked about on Friday, I liked Eugene and Dan Levy.
Speaker 2: You know, I like them as people. I think they're
Speaker 2: funny performers. As hosts, they were they were Okay, you know,
Speaker 2: I would have liked something a little bit better. There's
Speaker 2: gonna be no, there's no viral moments from them. You
Speaker 2: know this morning that everybody's watching. And at one point
Speaker 2: last night when they introduced Katherine O'Hara to give out
Speaker 2: the Best Comedy, we hadn't seen them in like an hour,
Speaker 2: and I had forgot that they were hosting. She looked great,
Speaker 2: Catherine O'Hara. Yeah, yeah, And and she was really funny too.
Speaker 2: She stole it, just like she stole every scene the
Speaker 2: Beetle Juice as well.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Okay, Jason Nathanson, go get some sleep, all right,
Speaker 1: take care, Thank you so much.
