1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,680 Speaker 1: News when you won it with Bloomberg News. No, I'm 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: Denise Pellygreene the FAA ordering the temporary grounding and inspections 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: of some Boeing seven thirty seven Max nine aircraft. That's 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: a day after a fuselage section as we've been talking 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: about on a brand new Aleska Airlines jet blew out 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: shortly after takeoff. No one was injured, passenger Mma, who 7 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: says it was even all more frightening when she learned 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: exactly what happened. 9 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 2: When I initially had gotten off the plane, everyone was saying, oh, 10 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 2: window shattered, and I generally thought it was just like 11 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: a little crack like something like that. Couldn't make the 12 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 2: whole plane. But that makes a lital sense now that 13 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 2: like the whole door flew. 14 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: Off, Passenger Mfoo there a Bloomberg's Mary Schlangenstein says this 15 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 1: reflects a design feature and use for many years, suggesting 16 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: investigators are likely at zero and on issues in the 17 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: manufacturing process, not design. 18 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 3: You know, Boeing has had incidents before where they've been 19 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: cited for you know, not lining up the holes in 20 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 3: the aircraft that had to be you know, hooked together 21 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 3: or or bolted together. So they've had some incidents in 22 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 3: the past on those lines as well. 23 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 1: Bloomberg reporter Mary Schlangenstein. There all this triggering even more 24 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: flight delays on top of those already caused by the 25 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: storm moving up the East Coast. Meantime, Bloomberg meteorologist Rob 26 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: Carolyn says tough driving conditions overnight up and down the coast, 27 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: but the New York metro could escape widespread power outages. 28 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: Different picture though for some parts of Massachusetts, they're not. 29 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 4: Going to see as much in the way of wind. 30 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: In the Tri State area. 31 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 4: The storm is going to be deepening southeast of Nantucket, 32 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 4: so by the time the winds really start to pick up, 33 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 4: it's going to have moved away from the Tri State area. 34 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: So I don't think we'll see the type of power outage. 35 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 4: Issues in the Tri State area that we could see 36 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 4: in extreme southeastern New England. 37 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: Bloomberg meteorologist Rob Carolyn also says heaviest snowfall tonight and 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: into tomorrow morning, then things blow out by tomorrow night. 39 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin apologizing and says he'll return to 40 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: the Pentagon soon.

The Pentagon suddenly said yesterday 42 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: Austin was hospitalized because of complications following a recent elective 43 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: medical procedure. Meantime, sources tolling us here at Bloomberg that 44 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: President Biden only learned of Defense Secretary of Austin's hospitalization 45 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: this week, several days after the fact, and received no 46 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: advanced notice from Pentagon officials. China's military may be dealing 47 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: with more corruption than initially thought, or at least we're 48 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: learning more about what happened with a wave of recent purges. 49 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 1: We get more from Bloomberg's stand Schwartzman. 50 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 4: More details are emerging as the reasons behind Chinese President 51 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 4: Xi Jimping's recent sweeping military purge.

Some examples of the corruption 56 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 4: were missiles filled with water instead of fuel, as well 57 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: as fields of missile silos located in the western part 58 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 4: of the country with lids that don't function properly to 59 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 4: allow missiles to launch effectively back.

I think you're going to have to 89 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 6: pay the players.

And I think what those 92 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 6: players deserve to be paid. And I think you see 93 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 6: the courts now recognizing that that the players who can't 94 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,679 Speaker 6: restrict their trade their motion, they need to be paid 95 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 6: and share in some of that money. 96 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: And Pine there in Bloomberg Wall Street week Daily with 97 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's David Weston and Romaine Bostik, college football trails only 98 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: the NFL in US popularity.
