<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local.

2
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:14.839
<v Speaker 2>News thirty two degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:18.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. Boston City Councilor Tanya

4
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:22.399
<v Speaker 2>Fernandez Anderson appears today in federal court on corruption charges.

5
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:25.000
<v Speaker 2>She pleads not guilty to all charges and asks the

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 2>judge to appoint a public defender for her and she's

7
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.320
<v Speaker 2>unable to afford a lawyer, and of the Viz's Kendall

8
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Buell has more. Fernandez Anderson was in dire financials traits.

9
00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:35.880
<v Speaker 1>US attorney Josh Levy says due to a five thousand

10
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:38.960
<v Speaker 1>dollars fine she paid for violating state ethics laws by

11
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.159
<v Speaker 1>hiring her son as an office manager. According to investigators,

12
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.640
<v Speaker 1>that led to a kickback scheme involving hiring a family member.

13
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 1>This unidentified person was then given a bonus more than

14
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:50.280
<v Speaker 1>twice as large as given to the rest of the staff,

15
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:53.840
<v Speaker 1>combined thirteen thousand dollars, allegedly with the agreement that the

16
00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:56.759
<v Speaker 1>District seven councilor would get a kickback, and she did,

17
00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.079
<v Speaker 1>Levy says, in the form of seven grand in cash

18
00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:00.759
<v Speaker 1>handed over in a city hall bathroom, and.

19
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 3>Not only was these taxpayer's funds being stallboves happening right

20
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.560
<v Speaker 3>in the building where she works.

21
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:09.680
<v Speaker 2>So my personal opinion, I think it adds the egregiousness

22
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:10.560
<v Speaker 2>of this conduct.

23
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:13.560
<v Speaker 1>No one else has been charged, Levy says. The investigation

24
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:18.079
<v Speaker 1>continues from the mostly federal courthouse Canni BUWBZ, Boston's news radio.

25
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:22.040
<v Speaker 2>The judge releasing Fernandez Anderson on certain conditions today, including

26
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.239
<v Speaker 2>surrendering her passport and staying in Massachusetts. Meantime, Boston Mayor

27
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.959
<v Speaker 2>Michelle Wou in a statement, is calling for the counselor

28
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.799
<v Speaker 2>to step down from her job. Looking for more clues

29
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:34.400
<v Speaker 2>in the ongoing manhunt for the person who shot United

30
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson to death outside of New York City, hotel,

31
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.519
<v Speaker 2>investigators tell ABC News they believe they were able to

32
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:44.959
<v Speaker 2>score DNA samples from several pieces of evidence discovered at

33
00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:46.159
<v Speaker 2>or near the murder scene.

34
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 4>The mayor said today that police are on the right

35
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.760
<v Speaker 4>path to catching this guy, but they still haven't formally

36
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:56.280
<v Speaker 4>identified him. That they have him arriving at the Port

37
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 4>Authority bus terminal at nine pm on November twenty fourth,

38
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.040
<v Speaker 4>checking in and out of the hostel on the upper west.

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Side, that is ABC's Aaron Katirski. The US Department of

40
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Agriculture ordering the testing of raw milk for bird flu.

41
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.280
<v Speaker 3>No cases of bird flu virus have been confirmed in

42
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:14.919
<v Speaker 3>people who drank raw milk, but with bird flu already

43
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 3>detected in seven hundred and eighteen US cow herds, the

44
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:22.159
<v Speaker 3>new federal order requires raw unpasteurized milk samples nationwide to

45
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:25.560
<v Speaker 3>be tested. This comes after a California farm producing raw

46
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.919
<v Speaker 3>milk recalled products which tested positive for the bird flu virus.

47
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.800
<v Speaker 3>Pasteurized milk, which is he treated, kills the virus and

48
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 3>remains safe to drink. Michael Toscano, CBS News Washington.

49
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 2>A federal appeals court in DC has upheld the law

50
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.360
<v Speaker 2>that requires the sale of TikTok.

51
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:42.919
<v Speaker 5>The unanimous holding of the three judge panel is that

52
00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:47.039
<v Speaker 5>China based Byte Dance must sell TikTok by January nineteenth,

53
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:49.719
<v Speaker 5>or rely on President Biden to grant a ninety day

54
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:52.639
<v Speaker 5>extension as the company works toward a sale. If not,

55
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 5>the court says, TikTok will effectively be unavailable in the

56
00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:59.319
<v Speaker 5>United States at least for a time, and its millions

57

58
00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:06.719
<v Speaker 5>The company has insisted TikTok is safe for Americans, but

59
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:10.439
<v Speaker 5>the judges site China's hybrid commercial threat to US national

60
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:13.759
<v Speaker 5>security and Beijing's desire to gather data on America.

61
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:16.960
<v Speaker 2>That is ABC Stephen portnoit we get a check now

62
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.319
<v Speaker 2>of the four dawbz ACCU weather forecast with partly Cloudy's

63
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:22.400
<v Speaker 2>guys Tonight, We'll hang on to a little bit of

64
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.520
<v Speaker 2>the breeze, though, though the real windy conditions will start

65
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.879
<v Speaker 2>to die down. Temperatures overnight in the mid twenties downtown,

66
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 2>a little chillier in the suburbs. Sunshine tomorrow mixes with

67
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:34.800
<v Speaker 2>some clouds, still a little breezy, Temperatures a little better

68
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:38.280
<v Speaker 2>than today. We'll get into the upper thirties by Tomorrow night.

69
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:40.879
<v Speaker 2>We'll have clouds around, Temperatures close to freezing, and a

70
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:44.039
<v Speaker 2>little snow gets in here late at night into Sunday morning,

71
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:46.319
<v Speaker 2>and that could create a few slick spots. After that,

72
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:49.759
<v Speaker 2>just mostly cloudy Sunday, a little breezy, temperatures in the

73
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:53.080
<v Speaker 2>low to mid forties. By Monday, we're in the low

74
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.159
<v Speaker 2>to mid forties. We'll have some sun to start, we'll

75
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:56.919
<v Speaker 2>bring in some clouds, and we'll bring in a bit

76
00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 2>of rain late in the day. Right now, thirty two

77
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:02.960
<v Speaker 2>degrees in. Some Cambridge street signs are now honoring the

78
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>city's Native American history, as WC Suzanne Sosville tells us,

79
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 2>nearly one hundred signs. Eventually we'll include translations to the

80
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>language of the Massachusetts tribe.

81
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 6>On a rainy day recently, Sage Carbone went outside her

82
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:20.639
<v Speaker 6>East Cambridge apartment and was shocked to see the first

83
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:22.399
<v Speaker 6>translated sign was up.

84
00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 7>I think I'm still in awe of this project starting,

85
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:29.759
<v Speaker 7>and I feel really full of joy.

86
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:33.000
<v Speaker 6>She's Native American and it was her idea to translate

87
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.040
<v Speaker 6>the signs, something she had seen on reservations.

88
00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 7>But I hadn't seen any municipality make an effort to

89
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:44.240
<v Speaker 7>include indigenous language in their signs.

90
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.079
<v Speaker 6>Even those city residents voted for the new signs. Vice

91
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:50.879
<v Speaker 6>Mayor Mark McGovern says some people have commented online that

92
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:52.040
<v Speaker 6>it's un American.

93
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.839
<v Speaker 2>It's honoring the culture that that existed before we got here,

94
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:58.160
<v Speaker 2>and that doesn't hurt anybody. I see it as only

95
00:04:58.240 --> 00:04:59.879
<v Speaker 2>a positive thing in Cambridge.

97
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Earlier, we told you about Randy Moss saying he's saying

98
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:10.079
<v Speaker 2>he's battling something internal. Now, the former New England Patriot

99
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 2>and Pro Football Hall of Famer is stepping away from

100
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:16.759
<v Speaker 2>ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown as he battles a serious health issue.

101
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:19.040
<v Speaker 2>ESPN says in a statement Moss will be away for

102
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 2>an extended period of time and that he has been

103
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 2>an invaluable member of their team for almost a decade.

104
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:27.959
<v Speaker 2>The forty seven year old had said he's optimistic and

105
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.959
<v Speaker 2>has a great team of doctors and family support. It's

106
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:34.839
<v Speaker 2>fight night in New England, not tonight. Over the weekend.

116
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:57.240
<v Speaker 8>I spoke with Lucas Rosa just ahead of his battle

117
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:59.040
<v Speaker 8>in Barry First, Matt Denning.

118
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:01.680

119
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.079
<v Speaker 8>Sport amateurst joke like how long I could last if

120
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 8>I jumped in the ring with you, you know, like,

121
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:07.959
<v Speaker 8>if I jumped in with you, it's probably five to

122
00:06:07.959 --> 00:06:08.480
<v Speaker 8>six seconds.

123
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 2>Is out a book.

124

125
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.199

126
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:14.360

127
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:17.480
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I'll stay out of the cage with Lucas. And

128
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.480
<v Speaker 8>the name might be familiar to Lucas's brother. Charles Rosa

129
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:23.319
