1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Morning Run with Amy and TJ an iHeartRadio Podcast.

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: Hey there everybody, it is Thursday, October seventeenth. I'm TJ.

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 3: Holmes and I'm Amy Robot.

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Thank you for coming along for this Thursday Morning run

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: with us.

6
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 2: And on today's run, it wasn't a debate, but Trump

7
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 2: and Kamala competed on the same platform. Yesterday, Fox News.

8
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: Felons on the move in Nebraska, where are they headed?

9
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 3: The voting booth?

10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: Plus what we know today about the shocking death a

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: former One Direction member Liam Payne and a shocking decision

12
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: by TMZ to publish images.

13
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: Of his body.

14
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 2: Also this morning, Texas plans to execute a man tonight,

15
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: but even the detective who helped put him on death

16
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: row thinks he's innocent. Also, an IVY League school kicks

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: a pro Israel professor off campus, and a record sexual

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 2: abuse settlement with the Catholic Church in LA.

19
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: And that meat recall over Lasteria concerns has now expanded.

20
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: And another product is being recalled because it has sugar

21
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: in it. You see, the problem is the product is

22
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: labeled sugar free. We begin our run on this Thursday,

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: with just nineteen days until election day. Trump and Harris

24
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: both made headline grabbing appearances on Fox News yesterday.

25
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 2: Yeah VP Harris sat down with Fox News Bret to

26
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 2: Bear for a thirty minute interview. This was her first

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: time appearing on the cable network since becoming the Democratic nominee. Meanwhile,

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: former President Trump held an all female town hall on

29
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 2: Fox News as well.

30
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: Now, Harris's interview with Bear could certainly be called a

31
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: contentious affair, the two of them talking over one another

32
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: at several points. She was pressed repeatedly on immigration and

33
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 1: was asked again about how she would be different from

34
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: a Biden president.

35
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: You might remember she received criticism for how she answered

36
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: that question in recent interviews, with the most part saying

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 2: there was no difference between her and Biden even said

38
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: I can't think of anything I do differently. Well, this

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 2: time she had a better answer prepared, and she said,

40
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: in my presidency will not be a continuation of Joe

41
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: Biden's presidencies. She went on to say, I represent a

42
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: new generation of leadership.

43
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: Over At Trump's town hall, which took place in the

44
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: all important state of Georgia, he took questions from the

45
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: all female audience about childcare, immigration and abortion, and at

46
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: one point, when he was asked about fertility treatments, Trump

47
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: declared himself the father of IVF. His campaign later said

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: he was just joking. He also promised to end sanctuary

49
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: cities and, as he put it, restore normalcy.

50
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: Well. Also on the election front, as we continue our

51
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 2: run this morning, some news out of Nebraska where the

52
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: Supreme Court there has ruled something that is going to

53
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: be making headlines, and it's just in time for the

54
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: presidential election, and felons need to get on top of

55
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 2: this and act quickly. He had eight days incounting to

56
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: do what to register to vote?

57
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: That's right, the Nebraska Supreme Court has just ruled that

58
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: convicted felons who served their sentences are now allowed to vote.

59
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: In the past, Nebraska had allowed felons to vote two

60
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: years after they completed their sentences, but earlier this year,

61
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: the state legislators voted to eliminate that two year waiting.

62
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: Period, but Nebraska Secretary of State ordered election officials to

63
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 2: stop letting people with felony convictions to vote, saying the

64
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 2: new law was unconstitutional. The problem there is, you're the

65
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: secretary of state. You just can't go around willy nilly

66
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: and saying this law or that law is unconstitutional. So

67
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 2: the High Court got involved and with the ruling, now

68
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 2: anyone living in Nebraska with a felony conviction has to

69
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: register online by Friday, October eighteenth, and in person by

70
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: October twenty fifth.

71
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's tomorrow if you want to register online. The

72
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: ruling would allow about seven thousand people across the Strait

73
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: to now register to vote. It got me a little

74
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: curious about the rules, and they vary widely from state

75
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: to state. There were only four places where you can

76
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: vote regardless of any criminal convictions, and that's Maine, Vermont,

77
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Other states have

78
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: widely varying rules on when your voting rights are restored

79
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: if you're a convicted felon. But you can find out

80
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: by looking at all up on vote dot do.

81
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: It's all over the place. I was surprised. There's some

82
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: maybe a state or two that even allow prisoners. You

83
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: can be in prison and you're still allowed to vote,

84
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 2: but it's all over the place. You got to check

85
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 2: it out. I'm glad you put that in there. What

86
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: is it?

87
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 3: Vote vote dot v Okay?

88
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 2: All right, well, folks, next up on our run now.

89
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: Just shocking news yesterday former One Direction member Liam Payne

90
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 2: is dead at the age of thirty one after falling

91
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 2: from the balcony of his hotel room in Argentina.

92
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: Police recalled to the Buenos Aires hotel for a report

93
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 1: of an aggressive mail under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

94
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: When they arrived, they found an unresponsive male who had

95
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: fallen off the third floor balcony down onto an interior

96
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: patio of the hotel. The Associated Press reports the nine

97
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: to one to one calls from the hotel manager said

98
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: that the mail was just drawing the hotel room.

99
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: Now. Pain became part of the global phenomenon One Direction

100
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: after competing on The X Factor in twenty sixteen. They were,

101
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 2: without a question, the biggest boy band in the world

102
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,919
Speaker 2: at one point. We had Pain, of course Harry Styles,

103
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 2: which has gone on to individual Superstar, and Zaye Malick

104
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: was a part of that group as well. They broke

105
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 2: up in twenty sixteen. I believe it was when they

106
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,799
Speaker 2: wanted to pursue individual projects, but they were en ropes.

107
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 2: We saw them plenty in our time and covering we

108
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: have seen. There's not quite anything like I've seen the

109
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: fandom of One Direction Frame.

110
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: I remember the concert in the park. I actually had

111
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: the honor of interviewing them, and the crowds were just

112
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: record setting to come see this incredible boy band. And

113
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: it's an incredibly tragic story. Pain is survived by his

114
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: seven year old son.

115
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 2: There's going to be a lot out there, a lot

116
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 2: of speculation and stuff on social media and whatnot and

117
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 2: what happened right now, the fact of the matter is,

118
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 2: we don't know exactly what took place in instigation that's

119
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: going on about the erratic behavior. Those are the reports

120
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 2: from the police that they received from the hotel. But

121
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: Pain had been open in the past about his issues

122
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 2: with addiction, with alcoholism. He's been open talking about his

123
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: mental health issues and his problems. We don't know what happened,

124
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 2: but those are the facts that he did have a

125
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 2: history of having some troubling some troubling times.

126
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the investigation will continue there, but there's another

127
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 1: investigation of sorts into what was TMZ thinking when this

128
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: all broke late yesterday. I actually went online and saw

129
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: this and was horrified. And TMZ understandably is getting ripped

130
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: for its decision. And I saw it to post an

131
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 1: image of Pain's dead body and initially reporting his death,

132
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: that celebrity news website included a cropt image of Pain's

133
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: body as a way of identify him. They wrote at

134
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: the time, we're not showing the whole body, but you

135
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: can clearly see his tattoo, a clock on his left forearm,

136
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: and a scorpion on his abdomen.

137
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 3: TJ.

138
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: I showed this to you, I said, I cannot believe

139
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: I'm looking at what I'm looking at.

140
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 2: To be honest with you, I did not believe you

141
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: when you said it. When you were sitting there looking

142
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 2: at the image, I did not believe you showed it

143
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 2: to me, and I could not believe what I was seeing,

144
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 2: certainly given what our background is in news and knowing

145
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: this is something that is just not done. So the

146
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 2: backlash year was immediate, gross, sick, a disgrace. Those were

147
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 2: kinds of words being directed at TMZ online. The site

148
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: eventually took those pictures down, and as of this recording,

149
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 2: they had one remaining on the site with an image

150
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 2: of the tent that police had put around the body,

151
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 2: so you can't see the body anymore. But like we say,

152
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 2: this is just in practice in news. This is not done.

153
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: It's not done.

154
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: And in fact, I went to go look to kind

155
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: of did a deep dive on if it's been done before,

156
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: and I had to go back to nineteen ninety four

157
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: the Seattle Times ran that photo of Kurt Cobain's body

158
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: after he died by suicide, and there was a huge outcry,

159
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: but the newspaper actually doubled down and published an op

160
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: ed defending its decision. But you had to go back

161
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: that far, and certainly, in practice and understandably, this is

162
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: just not something that journalists or typically any media publication

163
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: would feel comfortable publishing. There's just no point in doing it.

164
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: And I think we all get wrapped up. I shouldn't

165
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: say we all, but some people get wrapped up in

166
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: being first and having an exclusive. They don't think about

167
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: the human element and the human side to these stories.

168
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: And this is a tragic human story.

169
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: And not typical TMZ either, even though they do push

170
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 2: the line a little bit on things understandably, but this

171
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 2: is not normal necessarily for them either. As of this recording,

172
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 2: there is no response from TMZ at least about why,

173
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 2: any explanation for why they posted the pictures and more

174
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: to come.

175
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are certainly calls into Harvey Levin, and I

176
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if we don't hear from him at

177
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: some point, because he usually is quick to either defend

178
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: or explain or apologize for decisions that made in that newsroom.

179
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 2: All right, we'll stay with us here. We want to

180
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: continue our morning run in just a moment. We're going

181
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 2: to continue in Texas, where we are going to see

182
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 2: a first tonight, and it's a first that many people

183
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: are fighting to get stopped.

184
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 3: Welcome back everyone.

185
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: Our run now takes us to Texas, where later today,

186
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: a fifty seven year old man will become the first

187
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: person in the nation to be executed for a case

188
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: of shaken baby syndrome. Robert Robertson is scheduled to die

189
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: by lethal injection later today after a Texas board rejected

190
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: recommending clemency for him, despite new science and new evidence

191
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: that throws his guilt into question.

192
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 2: Okay, so the lead detective even is questioning the conviction

193
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 2: he helped convict Robertson, and he says new evidence shows

194
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 2: that the man was wrongfully convicted. He says, investigators say

195
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 2: that they were really just being what they wanted to

196
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 2: see shaken baby syndrome. But truth is Roberson's two year

197
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: old daughter, NICKI, had pneumonia in both legs, in both lungs,

198
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 2: I should say, had undiagnosed sepsis, and had prescribed drugs

199
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 2: in her system that now on today are illegal for

200
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 2: use in children.

201
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: In fact, more than thirty scientific and medical experts all

202
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: wrote into the board to explain that no doctor today

203
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: would consider Nicky's cause of death shaken baby syndrome because

204
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: it is considered a diagnosis of exclusion, meaning it's only

205
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: considered if there isn't another plausible medical explanation, and.

206
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 3: In this case, they say there certainly was.

207
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: You have a bipartisan group of lawmakers eighty four of

208
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 2: them that are urging the Texas Board of Pardons and

209
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 2: Paroles who recommend clemency for Robertson. His appeals have all

210
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: been rejected. They've denied him. Roberson exhausted all of his

211
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 2: legal options. One last shot. Governor Abbott can still grant

212
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 2: a one time thirty day reprieve to postpone the.

213
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: Execution, and Robertson his legal team is asking Abbott to

214
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 1: grant that reprieve so the court can hear this overwhelming

215
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: new medical and scientific evidence. His attorney said this, We

216
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: pray that Governor Abbot does everything in his power to

217
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: prevent the tragic, irreversible mistake of executing an innocent man.

218
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: We have seen a public outcry in that state. Again,

219
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: this is a state that is known to be pro

220
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: death penalty, but so many Republican lawmakers are on the

221
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: side of Robertson. Here. We've seen John Grisham, the famous author,

222
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: get involved as well. And of course Robertson himself has

223
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: maintained the entire time that he loved his daughter. His

224
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: daughter actually fell off the bed, he rushed her to

225
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: the hospital. She had been treated for pneumonia for the

226
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: past week. And this is just a sad story all around.

227
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: We will keep our eye on what happens later this

228
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: afternoon in Texas.

229
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 2: We will continue our run now as we come back

230
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: to New York, where a Columbia professor has been kicked

231
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 2: off campus for harassment and intimidation related to his pro

232
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 2: Israel views. The business school professor has been a very

233
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 2: vocal pro Israel advocate. That's fine, but the university says

234
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 2: he's going too far with his pro Israel antics, and

235
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 2: he's even gone around and followed people on campus. He's

236
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 2: put student activists and university officials on video and you

237
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: can hear him kind of harassing him, accusing them of

238
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: pro Hamas beliefs.

239
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: Now Columbia University says they respect everyone's right to free

240
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: speech and expression, but they do not tolerate threats of intimidation, harassment,

241
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: or other threatening behavior by its employees. A university official

242
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 1: said the decision to bar the professor Shi david I

243
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: from campus was because of an incident a specific evidence

244
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,479
Speaker 1: had happened earlier this month, on that one year anniversary

245
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: of Hamas's deadly attack on Israel on October seventh.

246
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: Okay, they say he made and posted videos of himself

247
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: asking the university's chief operating officer why Columbia was allowing

248
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 2: pro Palestinian protests on campus. The videos show him following

249
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 2: the officer around on campus throughout the day. He put

250
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: these videos up on Twitter on x showing him saying

251
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 2: to the officer, you have to do your job and

252
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 2: I will not let you rest if they won't let

253
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: us rest.

254
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: David I said this about the university's decision. The only

255
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: professor that was suspended is the Jewish Israeli professor who

256
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: called out support for terrorism on campus. By the way,

257
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: this isn't the first time the professor has faced punishment

258
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: for his actions. He was previously banned from campus for

259
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 1: just a day. It happened last spring when he threatened

260
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: to sit in the middle of a pro Palestinian gathering

261
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: on school grounds.

262
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: Let's head to the next leg of our morning ron

263
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 2: and this will take us the Los Angeles where the

264
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: Archdiocese of Los Angeles has agreed to pay eight hundred

265
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 2: and eighty million dollars to settle abuse claims.

266
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: The attorney for the victims says that this is the

267
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: largest single child abuse settlement for against a Catholic archdiocese

268
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: in history. One three hundred and fifty three victims are

269
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: a part of the settlement and alleged years of abuse

270
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: by priests.

271
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 3: LA is the.

272
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 1: Largest Catholic archdiocese in the country and already paid more

273
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: than seven hundred and forty million dollars in individual claims.

274
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's separate money. This archdizis has paid seven

275
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: hundred and forty million dollars previously on individual claims. Now

276
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: with this one, this new eight hundred million dollar settlement.

277
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 2: This one archdizis just amazingly has now paid over a

278
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 2: billion and a have dollars to settle sexual abuse claims

279
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: by clergy. That is remarkable. This has gone on there

280
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 2: for decades, they say, And this might be the final

281
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: page and just closing this chapter at least in that

282
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 2: part of the history.

283
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: It is a dark one and one that needs to

284
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: continually be exposed. It certainly is a dark chapter in

285
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: Catholic history.

286
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: All right, we're going to continue our run now with

287
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 2: an update, not a good one, right here, Romes. We

288
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 2: told you about the meat recall that ready to eat

289
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 2: meat and poultry products from Bruce Pack. We told you

290
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: about that last week. Well, that recall has been expanded

291
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 2: now nearly twelve million pounds of products, and we've learned

292
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: has been shipped to schools, restaurants and grocery stores around

293
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 2: the country.

294
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: That's right, and the recall now includes more products like

295
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: prepared salads, burritos, other items. They were sold at Costco,

296
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's, Target, Walmart, and Kroger and again sent to

297
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: US schools. Routine testing found potentially dangerous Listeria bacteria in

298
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: samples at a Bruce Pack manufacturing plan. It happened earlier

299
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: this month. The good news here, no illnesses have been

300
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: confirmed yet in connection with this recall, but it can

301
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: take up to ten weeks for symptoms of listeria infection

302
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: to show up.

303
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's an important note, just because you had some

304
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: of this stuff and then the week is going by two

305
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 2: weeks and oh, I'm probably cool. You might not be.

306
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: That's that's scary. If you have concerns, you need to

307
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 2: go to the us DA recall site. Three hundred and

308
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: forty two page list of hundreds of potentially affected food

309
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: that was produced between the dates of May thirty first

310
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 2: and October eighth, a lot. But it's important. If you

311
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: have any of these products, they're told to throw them

312
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: out and clean anything that these products came in contact with.

313
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: Look, lysteria can be deadly. It certainly can. And certainly

314
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: if you are an older American, if you have younger children,

315
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: or you have any sort of compromised immune system, those

316
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: are the folks that are most deeply affected by this

317
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: particular infection. Well, we have finally a recall on the

318
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: lighter or shall we say, sweeter side, thousands of cases

319
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: of Minute Made Zero sugar lemonade have been recalled because well,

320
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 1: they were full of sugar. Forty grams of sugar per can.

321
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: To be exact, it was the most delicious zero sugar

322
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 2: drink God ever had in my life. It was delicious,

323
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 2: so I knew something was up. But the FDA said

324
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: thirteen thousand plus cases of mis labeled zero sugar lemonade

325
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 2: were shipped to retail stores in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.

326
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 2: Those cases were actually the regular formula, meaning they had sugar.

327
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 2: So in addition to the forty grams, right, you're going

328
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 2: sugar free, right, but you're drinking this sugar free drink

329
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 2: and it actually has forty grams of sugar in it. Now,

330
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 2: the regular Minute May lemonade has thirty times the calories

331
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: more than twenty times the cards of Minute Made Zero sugar.

332
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 2: So what I'm saying here, you think you're drinking you're

333
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 2: getting no calories, no carbs, and no sugar, and actually

334
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 2: you're getting all.

335
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 1: That sit You're getting inundated with all of the above.

336
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: The FDA has labeled this a Class two recall, meaning

337
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: it involves a health hazard situation where there is a

338
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 1: remote probability of adverse health.

339
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: Although we are just.

340
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: Now hearing about this recall, Coca Cola actually issued it

341
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: back in September, but a press release, interestingly, was never

342
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: made public. Yeah, that's some criticism there. As you want

343
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: to read between the lines, you can tell if you

344
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: have any recalled cans by looking for these codes. It's

345
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 1: Febs seventeen twenty five CNA or Feb seventeen twenty five

346
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 1: CNB on the packaging. And we can laugh and say

347
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: whoopsie if you're trying to watch your calories or you're

348
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: a keto head like I used to be. But if

349
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: you're a diabetic, or if you have issues where you

350
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 1: should not be drinking sugar, this is actually and potentially

351
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: a serious situation. So just be aware of those dates,

352
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 1: and if you have any questions, of course, you can

353
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: look it up online.

354
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,679
Speaker 3: But that was a big whoopsie for Coca Cola, and

355
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 3: I think.

356
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: That was your favorite story yesterday.

357
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: I did get a chuckle out of it.

358
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 2: All right. Well, folks, as we wrap up our Thursday

359
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 2: morning run, we like for you to consider this as

360
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 2: you go about your day.

361
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 1: It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of

362
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: your own ignorance. Ain't that the truth? The wisest man

363
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: in the world is the man who knows he knows nothing.

364
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: I love that one from Socrates, but this one was

365
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: from Thomas Sewell and I had to look him up.

366
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: But he's an American economist and a prominent Black Conservative.

367
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 1: And this is one of your gems that you had

368
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: up on your door.

369
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 2: I love it. Like you said, it's mars Man and

370
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 2: the room was the one that realizes he knows nothing.

371
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 2: And it takes such maturity, such smarts, and wisdom to

372
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 2: know that you don't know a damn thing. So take

373
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 2: that with you today, folks. It takes considerable knowledge just

374
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: to realize the extent of your own ignorance. And with that,

375
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: I'm TJ.

376
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 3: Holmes and I'm Amy Robot. Thanks for running with us.

377
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 3: We'll see you back here on the run tomorrow.
