Speaker 1: what's ahead on wake up call. So show is good
Speaker 1: to go. Dodgers Superstar Show. Hey Otani is in the
Speaker 1: lineup for tonight's Game three of the World Series in
Speaker 1: New York. Otani got hurt trying to steal second during
Speaker 1: Saturday Nights forty two win over the Yankees at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1: Manager Dave Roberts says, as long as though Tani feels good,
Speaker 1: there's no reason he won't play. The Dodgers lead the
Speaker 1: best of seven game series two games to none. Israeli
Speaker 1: missile strikes against Iran have apparently hit a nuclear testing facility.
Speaker 1: Experts told Reuters that Saturday's airstrike appears to have hit
Speaker 1: a building that was part of Iran's nuclear weapons development program.
Speaker 1: The Israeli missiles also hit a massive military complex near
Speaker 1: Tehran and a missile production site. With eight days to
Speaker 1: go until the election, polls show the race between former
Speaker 1: President Trump and Vice President Harris is basically tied both
Speaker 1: nationally and in the battleground states that are going to
Speaker 1: decide the election. The latest CNBC poll finds Trump has
Speaker 1: a two point lead over Harris. Trump leads on economic issues,
Speaker 1: Harris leads on character issues. We're gonna catch up with
Speaker 1: both campaigns. We're gonna be talking with ABC's Stephen Portnoy
Speaker 1: at five point thirty and actually at five to twenty,
Speaker 1: and then ABC's Karen Travers at the bottom of the hour.
Speaker 1: And did you know that bees do more than pollinate
Speaker 1: our world? They say veterans, yep. Beads are amazing. We're
Speaker 1: going to be telling you how and how you can
Speaker 1: get involved when we talk with the Valley Hives Keith
Speaker 1: Roberts this morning about an event being held at the
Speaker 1: Valley Hive for the veterans. It's called Share the Buzz.
Speaker 1: Really super cool and a great way to support veterans.
Speaker 1: At six h five, it's handle on the news. Iran
Speaker 1: is accusing the US of being involved in the Israeli
Speaker 1: air strikes on Tehran over the weekend. Let's get started
Speaker 1: with some of the stories coming out of the KFI
Speaker 1: twenty four hour newsroom. Three men have been found dead
Speaker 1: inside a house that caught fire and Temple City. Two
Speaker 1: other people were taken to the hospital hospital yesterday with
Speaker 1: critical injuries. La County Sheriff's Lieutenant Hugo Renaga says the
Speaker 1: fire is believed to have been arson.
Speaker 4: During the investigation, or shortly about an hour after. An
Speaker 4: individual arrived on scene spoke to the deputies and he's
Speaker 4: a Mandarin speaker, so there's been some language barrier and
Speaker 4: right now he's a person of interest.
Speaker 1: A neighbor says she heard yelling and saw the whole
Speaker 1: house on fire. She says she saw the two injured
Speaker 1: elderly men walk out of the home, at least one
Speaker 1: with serious burns. The film and TV industry could get
Speaker 1: a big boost from the state.
Speaker 5: Governor Newsom unveiled a propose expansion of the tax credit,
Speaker 5: which started in two thousand and nine and intended to
Speaker 5: incentivize the production of films and TV shows in California.
Speaker 5: It would more than double the credit from three hundred
Speaker 5: and thirty million dollars to seven hundred and fifty million.
Speaker 5: Newsom says the expansion would invest in the future of
Speaker 5: the industry and make it more competitive with states like
Speaker 5: Georgia New York, where many filmmakers have relocated their productions
Speaker 5: in favor of larger tax credits. Program would go into
Speaker 5: effect as early as June twenty twenty five, pending approval
Speaker 5: from the state legislature. Other Brooker Kafin news.
Speaker 1: The quarter pounder is back on the menu at McDonald's
Speaker 1: following an E. Coli outbreak that made at least seventy
Speaker 1: five people sick in thirteen states and killed one person
Speaker 1: in Colorado. Adriy ABC's Andrew Dimbert says McDonald's claims testing
Speaker 1: has ruled out beef patties as the source of the outbreak.
Speaker 6: McDonald says the FDA believes slivered onions from a single supplier,
Speaker 6: Taylor Farms, are the likely source, and we remain very
Speaker 6: confident that any contaminated product related to this outbreak has
Speaker 6: been removed from our supply chain and is out of
Speaker 6: all McDonald's restaurants.
Speaker 1: He says. The FDA is still working to confirm the
Speaker 1: onions were the source. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts says show
Speaker 1: Hey Otani is expected to play in tonight's Game three
Speaker 1: of the World Series, despite a shoulder injury from Game two.
Speaker 7: That's my expectation, given talking to talk to the training
Speaker 7: staff and getting the reports, and so I just know
Speaker 7: if it's a per tolerant situation, I just don't see
Speaker 7: him not playing Game.
Speaker 1: Three me either. Roberts says the final decision will be
Speaker 1: based on Otani's performance in workouts. Otani injured the shoulder
Speaker 1: on Saturday trying to steal second base unsuccessfully. Roberts called
Speaker 1: it a possible sublocation subluxation. It's basically a partially dislocated shoulder.
Speaker 1: Game three is tonight in New York. First pitch goes
Speaker 1: out at five eight. Let's say good morning now to
Speaker 1: ABC's Jordana Miller. Jordana in Jerusalem. Jordana, Israel's retaliatory attack
Speaker 1: on Iran was just the beginning of violence this weekend.
Speaker 1: What all happened.
Speaker 8: In the pre dawn hours on Saturday. Israel carried out
Speaker 8: very intense strikes on Iranian military targets. Important to say
Speaker 8: that Israel did not hit the nuclear site or the
Speaker 8: oil fields. That was what, By the way, the United
Speaker 8: States and the Biden administration had been urging Israel to
Speaker 8: stay away from, fearing that it would really bring the
Speaker 8: region to, you know, a wider war and a direct
Speaker 8: war between Israel and Iran. Israel appears to have rained
Speaker 8: in its attack. It hit several military bases from Tehran
Speaker 8: to share Rads to the Secretive part In military base,
Speaker 8: and it hit the Israeli say missile production facilities, ballistic
Speaker 8: missile depots, drones as well and air defense systems. And
Speaker 8: the satellite imagery that we're beginning to see appears to
Speaker 8: back those claims and shows damage in several military bases Iran.
Speaker 9: So far, they haven't really.
Speaker 8: Come out with an aggressive statement vowing a direct strike
Speaker 8: to retaliate, so that's good news, but that could change
Speaker 8: in the days ahead, and we're going to just have
Speaker 8: to wait and see what the regime ultimately decides to do.
Speaker 8: They're still kind of sizing up the damage.
Speaker 1: So will So you're saying that Iran will decide whether
Speaker 1: to retaliate against the retaliation based on how much damage
Speaker 1: is done.
Speaker 10: That's right.
Speaker 9: I think they're sizing They're trying.
Speaker 8: To figure out how much damage was done, and you
Speaker 8: take into consideration other calculations. And so far we've heard
Speaker 8: again kind of moderate statements. We heard, for example, the
Speaker 8: Supreme Leader Ayatola jome Ma, who in the past has
Speaker 8: threatened very severe punishment, for example against Israel. For example,
Speaker 8: the leader of Kamas was killed on Irani and soil
Speaker 8: It's Malhammea. After a general was killed in Damascus, after
Speaker 8: Habala's leader was killed, we heard very very strong threats.
Speaker 8: That has not happened this time. Hamene instead said, you know, uh,
Speaker 8: you know, we have a right to self defense. What
Speaker 8: happens should neither be you know, dismissed or exaggerated. This
Speaker 8: morning we heard a little bit more strident comments from
Speaker 8: the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, General Salami, who
Speaker 8: said there will be quote unquote bitter consequences, but again
Speaker 8: not the same level of threats of a direct response
Speaker 8: on Israel.
Speaker 9: But that doesn't that doesn't mean it won't happen.
Speaker 8: It just seems that right now, Ron is quite you know,
Speaker 8: they haven't they're not threatening that, and they appear to
Speaker 8: be assessing the damage. They have been weakened and left vulnerable,
Speaker 8: and you know, they need to make a decision about
Speaker 8: whether further escalating this confrontation with Israel serves their interest.
Speaker 8: There are plenty of analysts here in Israel and abroad
Speaker 8: and in the United States who say this should be
Speaker 8: the end for Ran. They should, you know, they should
Speaker 8: come down from the tree and for now call this
Speaker 8: back and forth, you know, the end of this cycle
Speaker 8: of violence. And you know, Israel also has other interests.
Speaker 8: They need to wind down the war in Gaza, they
Speaker 8: need to finish what's happening in Lebanon. This isn't really
Speaker 8: the time for Israel either to go to war with
Speaker 8: Iran head to head.
Speaker 1: Okay, and Jordana, I got some information from Reuters. Just
Speaker 1: wanted to check on you because you said that they
Speaker 1: did not hit oil or nuclear but there is a
Speaker 1: report from Reuters that they hit a building that was
Speaker 1: part of Iran's nuclear weapons development program, like a nuclear
Speaker 1: testing facility or something like that. Is that accurate? Or
Speaker 1: not accurate or do you know yet?
Speaker 8: Routers is referring to the part In Military base, which
Speaker 8: was a secretive base that in the past, we're talking
Speaker 8: a decade ago, was used to test nuclear to test
Speaker 8: nuclear weapons, but it's not it's no longer considered part
Speaker 8: of around current secret weapons programs.
Speaker 9: Those sites are four dough.
Speaker 8: Right, Those are other other sites now and not parts
Speaker 8: and Partian is believed that what the Israelis hit was
Speaker 8: part of testing even now for ballistic missiles, which is
Speaker 8: you know what Alon used to attack Israel and what
Speaker 8: they wanted to take out, both their arsenal and their
Speaker 8: ability to make them gotcha?
Speaker 1: Okay? And then you mentioned Gaza. So Egypt now has
Speaker 1: an idea for a very temporary ceasepire, what how long
Speaker 1: and what would be the point of that.
Speaker 11: Thing?
Speaker 9: A two day these five.
Speaker 8: With the release of four live Israeli hostages and dozens
Speaker 8: of Palestinians jails here in Israel released and a commitment
Speaker 8: by the size to continue talking to extend those first
Speaker 8: two days of a pause. Unfortunately, though it's grabbing headlines,
Speaker 8: it's not doesn't appear to be making a difference in
Speaker 8: Hamas and the ranks of Hamas. They need to agree
Speaker 8: on a partial agreement, and they're still putting out a
Speaker 8: very strong line that they'll only agree to a comprehensive deal.
Speaker 9: End of the war, all of the Israeli troops out.
Speaker 8: So this Egyptian proposal doesn't seem to have many legs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it doesn't seem like Hamas has moved off
Speaker 1: of that stance one iota in the last.
Speaker 9: Year, right, which is pretty depressing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, jar Donna Miller, thank you so much for
Speaker 1: the information, the update. We appreciate it. We'll talk to
Speaker 1: you soon. It started with some of the or no,
Speaker 1: let's continue with some of the stories coming out of
Speaker 1: the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. A man in La
Speaker 1: has been shot in the arm, allegedly by a neighbor
Speaker 1: during an argument about a break in and a stolen dog.
Speaker 1: Police say the man left his neighbor's door yesterday when
Speaker 1: he realized he'd been hit, and walked to the front
Speaker 1: of the apartment complex to wait for police to get there.
Speaker 1: The woman who allegedly shot him was arrested. A sixteen
Speaker 1: year old boy in still Mar has been hurt jumping
Speaker 1: off a seventy five foot high high voltage tower. Firefighters
Speaker 1: say the boy was having what was called a psychological emergency.
Speaker 1: He was taken to a trauma center. His condition is
Speaker 1: not known. Relatives of fallen LAPD officers have condemned the
Speaker 1: remarks of Isabel Herado, who's running to replace La City
Speaker 1: Councilman Kevin d Lyon, for saying f the police during
Speaker 1: a forum with college students it was a sloa Herodo's
Speaker 1: comment was caught on tape and released earlier this month.
Speaker 1: The LA Police protectively has demanded an apology and urged
Speaker 1: Toronto to withdraw from the election. She put out a
Speaker 1: statement saying she understands the pain that families feel after
Speaker 1: the loss of a loved one and that the memories
Speaker 1: of fallen officers can be honored, while also pushing for
Speaker 1: accountability and equity in policing and real investment in LA communities.
Speaker 1: A man in Orange County claims to have won a
Speaker 1: forty four million dollar powerball jack Popp says he hasn't
Speaker 1: seen any cash. The man says he bought tickets at
Speaker 1: his local routes in August and it was exciting to
Speaker 1: see his numbers come up, but he says the process
Speaker 1: is really horrible for a winner of any big lotto prize.
Speaker 1: He says lottery officials won't say when the prize will
Speaker 1: be paid out. A state lottery official says the fastest
Speaker 1: a winner might get paid is four weeks, but that
Speaker 1: doesn't happen very often. Police have warned Dodgers fans not
Speaker 1: to break the law when celebrating the home team's win
Speaker 1: against in the World Series. You know what I was
Speaker 1: trying to say. Right after the team won Game two
Speaker 1: on Saturday night, fans shut down Whittier Boulevard in East La.
Speaker 1: The street takeover featured cars doing donuts, fireworks going off,
Speaker 1: and eventually deputies moving in to shut things down. Family
Speaker 1: members of several LAPD officers killed in the line of
Speaker 1: duty are calling for Isabel Hirado to drop out of
Speaker 1: the race for La City Council. The relatives say Herado's
Speaker 1: words about police are offensive and could be dangerous to
Speaker 1: the city of La. Public Works crews in San Bernardino
Speaker 1: are preparing for storm season, in which there could be
Speaker 1: flooding and mud flows in the burn scar of the
Speaker 1: fire that burned forty four thousand acres in the mountains
Speaker 1: this summer, a trash track is being installed in Cook
Speaker 1: Canyon to filter debris from storm runoff, and almost one
Speaker 1: hundred cameras are being installed so officials can monitor conditions.
Speaker 1: At six oh five, it's handle on the news. Another
Speaker 1: major newspaper has declined to endorse a presidential candidate, and
Speaker 1: people are not happy about it. Right now, let's talk
Speaker 1: about that. Those presidential candidates. We're checking in with ABC's
Speaker 1: Steven Portnoy. Stephen, you get to go first today instead
Speaker 1: of Kara. With just over a week until the election,
Speaker 1: both candidates moving along full steam ahead. Former President Trump
Speaker 1: making a play for a state that hasn't been won
Speaker 1: by Republicans since Reagan.
Speaker 12: Well, I mean, look, he is appearing. He appeared last
Speaker 12: night in New York City. He was, you know, basking
Speaker 12: in the adulation of at least nineteen thousand people. I'm
Speaker 12: not sure exactly how many people they fit into Madison
Speaker 12: Square Garden, but it holds nineteen thousand, five hundred. The
Speaker 12: idea here is that he's, you know, trying to put
Speaker 12: forward an image of him playing in New York. But
Speaker 12: you're absolutely right to note that the last time the
Speaker 12: state went blue was nineteen eighty four and Ronald Reagan's
Speaker 12: second run, so it's been forty years. I think it's
Speaker 12: meant to demonstrate that he has a base of support
Speaker 12: and can fill a large arena, even in the bluest
Speaker 12: parts of the country. We'll see if it really does
Speaker 12: put some of those Northeastern states in play. What the
Speaker 12: crowd saw last night was not just Trump for about
Speaker 12: an hour and twenty minutes, you know, performing his greatest hits,
Speaker 12: but also a pre show that's gotten a lot of
Speaker 12: attention because of some of the lewde racist, vulgar, obscene
Speaker 12: remarks that were made to the rally crowd. And obviously
Speaker 12: the big headline is what this one comic said about
Speaker 12: Puerto Rico. That has gotten attention because you know, the
Speaker 12: possible impact on Latino voters. But beyond that, some of
Speaker 12: these things that were said last night are simply not
Speaker 12: appropriate to be repeated on morning radio. There's another joke
Speaker 12: at this comic gave about how Latino men enter the
Speaker 12: country that I cannot repeat because it's inappropriate for children. Okay,
Speaker 12: but you can find it yourself and you might undoubtedly
Speaker 12: will agree with me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't understand. I mean, like the guy can
Speaker 1: say what he wants and maybe do they go over
Speaker 1: all of their material or is he just trying to
Speaker 1: get the shock value? Like why would he do that?
Speaker 1: I bet the Trump team isn't very happy with him.
Speaker 12: Well, they're not because they're distancing themselves from it. And
Speaker 12: not just in a statement last night, but in an
Speaker 12: interview on Fox News this morning, a Trump campaign spokesperson
Speaker 12: saying that this is not reflective of Trump's views and
Speaker 12: or the campaign's views. You've got Rick Scott, the Republican
Speaker 12: senator from Florida who's hoping to win his second term
Speaker 12: up against a woman who was of Ecuadorian descent, and
Speaker 12: he's saying that what the comic said is not funny
Speaker 12: and not true. And again, the Puerto Rico joke is
Speaker 12: as offensive as it might be to Puerto Ricans to
Speaker 12: be told that you come from an island of garbage,
Speaker 12: it's relatively anodyne compared to some of the other things
Speaker 12: that were said last night, such as Jews don't like
Speaker 12: throwing paper or money down, that Kamala Harris presides over
Speaker 12: a party full of Jew haters, that Kamala Harris herself
Speaker 12: is the devil and the antichrist, and you can perhaps
Speaker 12: point fingers as these days in politics everyone is wont
Speaker 12: to do and say, oh, but you should listen to
Speaker 12: some of the horrible things that Trump Democrats say about
Speaker 12: Trump and his supporters. Well, that's fine, but it's hard
Speaker 12: to have the moral high ground when you have a
Speaker 12: rally that features rhetorics such.
Speaker 1: As this, Yeah, I wish they'd both just knock it off.
Speaker 1: And were all of those comments from that comedian or.
Speaker 12: No, this is a variety of people Trump's friends, you know,
Speaker 12: people who have associated themselves with Trump, and so it
Speaker 12: was a litany of things over the course of several
Speaker 12: hours of pre show programming.
Speaker 1: Crazy and I heard that there were like a ton
Speaker 1: of people outside too try and they couldn't get in.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I would look.
Speaker 12: I mean Trump made reference to that that there were
Speaker 12: people lined up, He said all the way to the
Speaker 12: Hudson River, which would be I think probably about a
Speaker 12: half mile long. I don't know whether that was the case,
Speaker 12: but lots and lots of people. And it's not all
Speaker 12: that surprising when you look at the electoral map, where
Speaker 12: I should say maps of counties in and around New
Speaker 12: York City, you've got long Island, Staten Island, various parts
Speaker 12: of northern and central New Jersey, and some of downstate
Speaker 12: New York where you have and certainly upstate New York
Speaker 12: deep red pockets. And so the idea that these states
Speaker 12: in the majority vote blue disregards the idea that they
Speaker 12: are even in just as there, it's true in Orange
Speaker 12: County and Los Angeles County. There are plenty of Trump's
Speaker 12: supporters in those places, and so when Trump holds a rally,
Speaker 12: he can easily pack Madison Square guard.
Speaker 1: Especially if you just hold one. Sure, So where's he
Speaker 1: headed to next?
Speaker 12: Today? Trump has two events in Georgia, in and around Atlanta.
Speaker 12: There's the afternoon remarks to a gathering of faith leaders
Speaker 12: and evening rally in Atlanta tonight.
Speaker 1: All right, Stephen Bortinoy, thank you so much for keeping
Speaker 1: us up to date on what's happening on the trail.
Speaker 1: You bet all right, talk to you soon. Let's get
Speaker 1: back to some of the stories coming out of the
Speaker 1: KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Temperatures are expected to start
Speaker 1: dropping as a cold low pressure system moves into southern
Speaker 1: California from the Gulf of Alaska. Forecasters say it'll bring
Speaker 1: gusty wins and maybe even some rain today in places.
Speaker 1: Meteorology Philip Gonzalez is the drop in temperatures will be significant.
Speaker 8: Temperatures in Orange County won't get out of the sixties
Speaker 8: even an inn an Orange County, and likewise Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Scattered rain will develop tonight and linger through tomorrow, but
Speaker 1: amounts are expected to just be like a tenth of
Speaker 1: an inch or less in most places. I think it's
Speaker 1: a nice reprieve. It's felt so much like summer for
Speaker 1: so long. It's kind of nice to have a little dip.
Speaker 1: I might even get out a sweater or two. A
Speaker 1: person who's been injured jumping from a second floor window
Speaker 1: of an apartment building that caught fire. Firefighters say the
Speaker 1: fire happened on Reno Street south of Beverly Boulevard around
Speaker 1: eleven yesterday morning. The jumper's condition is not known. A
Speaker 1: pedestrian and a motorcycle rider have been killed in a
Speaker 1: crash in Ventura County. The HPIE says officers got reports
Speaker 1: of a crash yesterday on Highway one to eighteen west
Speaker 1: of Rocky Peak Road in moor Park. They found an
Speaker 1: empty car in the center median and a man and
Speaker 1: a woman on the gra nearby. Investigators say it looks like
Speaker 1: the woman got into a crash, hit the right guard rail,
Speaker 1: which spun the car out of control across all the
Speaker 1: westbound lanes and hit the median, So then she got
Speaker 1: out of her car, and officials say that's when she
Speaker 1: was standing on the side of the road in the
Speaker 1: first lane and got hit by the motorcycle. And Israeli
Speaker 1: citizen has crashed a truck into a bus stop in
Speaker 1: Tel Aviv, killing one person and injuring forty others. Officials
Speaker 1: have called it a possible terrorist attack. The crash yesterday
Speaker 1: happened a day after Israel's retaliatory strike on Iran. A
Speaker 1: proposed vending machine at LAPD headquarters downtown would offer police.
Speaker 13: Merch THELA Police Foundation, a nonprofit that raises money for
Speaker 13: and contributes to the LAPD, says it wants to put
Speaker 13: the vending machine right in the lobby of the headquarters
Speaker 13: building on First Street. It would sell branded hats, t shirts,
Speaker 13: jewelry and other merchandise, with the proceeds going back to
Speaker 13: the foundation. But the no cost agreement requires city approval,
Speaker 13: and the full city Council will have to consider it
Speaker 13: without a formal recommendation from the Government Operations Committee. That's
Speaker 13: because council Woman Unsses Hernandez voted against it, while council
Speaker 13: Woman in Melda Padilla voted for it. Councilman Heather Hut
Speaker 13: was absent, so a tie vote means no endorsement. In Downtown, La,
Speaker 13: Michael Monks KFI.
Speaker 1: News, Governor Newsom has unveiled a plan to expand California's
Speaker 1: entertainment tax credit program. The plan would increase incentives for
Speaker 1: film and TV production companies from three hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: million to seven hundred and fifty million dollars. It comes
Speaker 1: as Hollywood faces increasing competition from other production hubs across
Speaker 1: the country. It'll need to be approved by the legislature.
Speaker 1: A federal judge has denied a request from Sean Combe's
Speaker 1: lawyers to place a gag order on government agencies investigating
Speaker 1: his sex trafficking and racketeering case. The judge's order on Friday.
Speaker 1: In it, he said he had not found any evidence
Speaker 1: of wrongdoing. The judge also said both sides are expected
Speaker 1: to abide by existing laws, which prohibit lawyers or investigators
Speaker 1: from revealing information that would interfere with a fair trial. Venom.
Speaker 1: The Last Dance has topped the box office, taking in
Speaker 1: about fifty one million dollars in its opening weekend. It's
Speaker 1: number one, but the lowest grossing of the three movie
Speaker 1: trilogy at six so five to tendle on the news
Speaker 1: quarter Pounders coming back and again at five point fifty.
Speaker 1: What's the buzz at the Valley Hive? A chance for
Speaker 1: you to have a great night out and help veterans.
Speaker 1: Tell you about that right now, let's say good morning too,
Speaker 1: ABC's Karen Travers. So, Karen, vice president Harris is very
Speaker 1: strong with women, but has some issues with men. So
Speaker 1: how is she combatting that?
Speaker 14: Yeah, I heard that pun. I heard that pitch pun earlier.
Speaker 11: That was very clever.
Speaker 1: I know Cono is so good at those things.
Speaker 11: Very good.
Speaker 14: Yes, And then that's exactly what they're doing right now.
Speaker 14: You know, they're over the weekend doing a lot of
Speaker 14: targeted outreach to sports fans in battleground states. They had
Speaker 14: specific ads that were running during football games in the
Speaker 14: Wisconsin market, the Philadelphia market during the Eagles game, during
Speaker 14: the Pittsburgh Steelers game yesterday, and also running in Detroit.
Speaker 14: And they were using words that Donald Trump has said
Speaker 14: about those cities. You know, bad things happen in Philadelphia,
Speaker 14: him calling Milwaukee a horrible city, saying Detroit's a mess,
Speaker 14: things like that to rev up people in those cities
Speaker 14: by tapping into their civic pride, you know, their pride
Speaker 14: of sports fans, so a lot of sports imagery, a
Speaker 14: lot of fighting, fighting, you know, literally in the Philadelphia
Speaker 14: add lots of fighting because that's what they do there.
Speaker 14: I can say that I'm from Philadelphia.
Speaker 1: It's okay.
Speaker 14: But you know, it was a very specific message. Are
Speaker 14: you going to see that this week on television? No,
Speaker 14: it was really geared towards those sports audiences over the weekend.
Speaker 14: But you know, you do mention like there is so
Speaker 14: much focus on the gender gap right now and what
Speaker 14: we're seeing in polls, what we're seeing in early voting,
Speaker 14: and you know, I think it was also notable to
Speaker 14: see former First Lady Michelle Obama over the weekend. She
Speaker 14: was out with the Vice President in Michigan, big big
Speaker 14: event in Michigan. The first time we've seen Michelle Obama
Speaker 14: on the campaign trail, and when she was talking about
Speaker 14: rep deductive rights, it was not just a message to
Speaker 14: women voters. She was tailoring that message to men, and
Speaker 14: that's something we haven't seen many Democratic surrogates do. So
Speaker 14: I think they really are trying to key in on
Speaker 14: mail voters over the next couple of days as we
Speaker 14: get toward election day. And you know, it's really all
Speaker 14: about trying to shore up certain groups. But they obviously
Speaker 14: have concerns about.
Speaker 1: Some right, So I would be very interested, Karen, and
Speaker 1: I don't know how they could possibly track it, but
Speaker 1: you know how like sports is sort of an escape, yes,
Speaker 1: and so if I'm inundated by presidential ads during my
Speaker 1: football game, yeah, I am not going to be happy.

Speaker 1: learned when I visited you Keith, every single honey from
Speaker 1: every different beehive case different, they have their own unique flavor.
Speaker 11: In years past. For example, last year we had about
Speaker 11: fifty two entries and they were all from backyard beekeeper.
