1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:06,600
Speaker 1: This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 2: Thirty one degrees in Boston. We've got some freezing drizzle

3
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 2: in the city right now, very thick fog along the

4
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 2: shoreline as well. And it is eleven o'clock on your

5
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: Friday morning. Thanks for joining us. I'm Nicole Davis. Here's

6
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: what's happening. The Justice Department has released another round of

7
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 2: the Epstein files. ABC's Dave Packer reports these files contained

8
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 2: decades old sexual assault allegations against President Trump.

9
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: The Department of Justice Thursday released three previously withheld FBI

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: interview summaries from twenty nineteen related to a woman who

11
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: made unsubstantiated claims she was abused by Donald Trump when

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: she was a minor in the nineteen eighties. According to

13
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 1: the reports, the FBI interviewed the woman who claimed Jeffrey

14
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: Epstein introduced her to Trump and that Trump abused her

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: when she was between thirteen and fifteen years old. Trump

16
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: has denied any wrongdoing related to his relationship with Epstein.

17
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: Dave Packer, ABC News.

18
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: And White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt calls the allegations baseless.

19
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: It's eleven oh one, of course, We're watching the war

20
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: in the Middle East. It is day seven of the attacks,

21
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: President Trump saying today there will be no deal with

22
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 2: Iran except for unconditional surrender. On social media, the President

23
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: says after that and the selection of a new leader,

24
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: the US allies and partners will work quote tirelessly to

25
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: bring Iran back and make it economically bigger, better, and

26
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 2: stronger than ever. ABC's Ian Pannell has more of the

27
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 2: latest attacks against the Iranian capitol.

28
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 3: Residents in Tehran, reporting that last night was the heaviest

29
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 3: night of bombing so far, as the US and Israel

30
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 3: step up their campaign, warning that Moore is to come,

31
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 3: but Iran still showing it's capable of retaliating.

32
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 2: Israeli warplanes also pounding Beirute with strikes is the heaviest

33
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 2: strikes in Lebanon since the ceasefire back in twenty twenty

34
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 2: four ended the last war between Iran, bak Tezbollah and Israel. Now,

35
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: Iran is still threatened to fire on ships sailing through

36
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: the Strait of Horror moves, which typically handles about twenty

37
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: percent of the world's oil your SABC's Elizabeth Sholsey.

38
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 4: This could ultimately result in a higher time of inflation,

39
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 4: just when we had been starting to see the inflation

40
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 4: picture improve. And that is a really big puzzle in

41
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 4: the economy right now. This whole supply shock when it

42
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: comes to oil, really does threaten that inflation story in

43
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 4: a way that household's businesses really can't seem to catch

44
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 4: a break.

45
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: President Trump telling Reuter's yesterday he's not concerned about gas

46
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 2: prices here in the US, saying if they rise, they rise,

47
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: but he also thinks they'll drop rapidly once the war

48
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: in Iran is done. Here in Massachusetts, gas prices are

49
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: up a quarter on average since last Friday. And we

50
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 2: certainly had a rough morning weather wise, and it looks

51
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: like things are going to start to even out a

52
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: little bit throughout the afternoon, but it doesn't mean we'll

53
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: really see a ton of sun. We are looking right

54
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: now still at some freezing drizzle, a little bit of snow,

55
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: a little bit of sleet north of Boston, some cold

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: rain coming down on parts of the South Shore, And

57
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 2: for the rest of the day, we're going to be

58
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: seeing these occasional showers and some drizzle from time to time,

59
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 2: But the bulk of all this has made its way

60
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: out to sea, so that is certainly good news. We

61
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 2: do have a winter weather advisory up until noon for

62
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 2: the northern and western suburbs. Many areas still not above

63
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 2: freezing at this point, so the roads are still a

64
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 2: little bit treacherous in spots, especially if they haven't been treated.

65
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: Same situation for your sidewalks and your driveways, so on

66
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 2: and so forth. For today, we get up to just

67
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 2: about thirty to thirty five, so we have a better

68
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: shot of heading above freezing right by the coast again,

69
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: many of us west of four ninety five still deep

70
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: into the twenties. Now for tonight, cloudy with some drizzle

71
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 2: into the morning hours of tomorrow. Low about where we're

72
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: going to be in the low to mid thirties, so

73
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 2: temperatures not moving much once we get to our high

74
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: this afternoon. Now for tomorrow, that is where the warm

75
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 2: up begins. We've got clouds in the afternoon, a high

76
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: in the mid forties. Could see some showers on Sunday,

77
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: but plenty of sun in the afternoon, a high year sixty.

78
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: Then on Monday more some than clouds and a high

79
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 2: in the mid sixties. So yeah, another day or so

80
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: and then we will be in the warm spring weather.

81
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 2: Thirty one degrees in Norwood, twenty nine in Hudson, north

82
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,080

85
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: fog out there, freezing drizzle and worth thirty. Well, tonight

86
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 2: could be a pretty big night over at the Garden.

87
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 5: Well, we are watching closely as Jason Tatum very well

88
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 5: could be in the lineup of the Garden as the

89
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 5: Celtics host the Mavericks tonight. Tatum again going to work

90
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 5: on sor and this would be big, wouldn't it. The

91
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 5: Celtics have been damn good this season, second place in

92
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 5: the Eastern Conference. Needless to say, the Seeds are in

93
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 5: position for another championship run after the brutal end to

94
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 5: last season turn of his.

95
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 6: Hard Cardimus down.

96
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 5: Who wants a time out? Tadam is so much pain.

97
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 5: If Jason Tatum went down in the Eastern Conference Semis

98
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 5: against the the next torn Achilles, the Knicks moved on,

99
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 5: the Celts went home ten months later. Could Tatum be

100
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 5: back on the parquet We shall see tonight.

101
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 3: Going to how about somebody Yes.

102
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 5: Exciting times Drew mahaland WBZ Boston's news radio.

103
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: And when it comes to soccer, Foxborough Town officials have

104
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 2: a new offer to consider when it comes to the

105
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: World Cup. FIFA and the Craft Group which owns and

106
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 2: operates to Let Stadium, of course, have now promised to

107
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: guarantee pay for the nearly eight million dollars the town

108
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 2: needs to secure the World Cup games. And the offer

109
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: of the committee says it will pay all bills within

110
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 2: two business days and by all the necessary equipment needed.

111
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: The Select Board has been holding back on approving a

112
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: license for the game, saying they don't have the money

113
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 2: to fut the bill and they want all the cash

114
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 2: up front. In a new statement, the board says it

115
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 2: appreciates these efforts, they want to keep working on this,

116
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 2: but they have not agreed to these terms. They say

117
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: the terms don't meet what they require to put on

118
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 2: such an event. And before we go take a look

119
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 2: at business. Scientists are thrilled with the sighting of a

120
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 2: special whale off the New England coast. Here's wbz's Phipps.

121
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 6: And this one stops marine officials in their tracks. These

122
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 6: are the first ever sightings of rare blue whale spotted

123
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 6: by aerial surveillance about fifteen nautical miles south of Martha's Vineyard.

124
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 6: Three of them seen on two separate occasions last month.

125
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 6: Experts say to see them outside their normal Canadian feeding

126
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 6: and breeding grounds is rare, let alone seeing them in

127
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 6: two different areas south of home. Matt Phipps WBZ, Boston's
