Saying the tech shouldnt be the police of free speech and political ads. Drawing criticism from lawmakers and civil rights leaders. Some say the facebook founders message is dangerous. In the ongoing fight over who is responsible for disinformation. Today a georgetown Facebook Mark zuckerberg delivering a 37 minute speech. Im here today i believe that we must continue to stand for free expression. Saying facebook gives people power and a voice. Its not something that should be supse even if that means false ads.

And the importance of free speech. Kings daughter wrote on twitter it was the disinformation campaigns launched by politicians that created an atmosphere for his assassination. Some say its reversing lt decision again to a hands off approach like before the 2016 election. Thats where theyre going to the dont blame us. Were trying to give everybody a fair shot. A moment to go bac to want coverage of the earthquake 30 years later. And the app that now exists that could give you a heads up before the next big quake. California officially launching my shake app. Giving you a 20 second warning before the shaking starts. However, the closer you are to the earthquake epicenter. The less of a heads up youll get. This is not a perfect system. We are now leaning into this technology. I dont want to overpromise. It causes confusion. And its a very simple message. The app will not immediately tell you the strength of the quake or how long the shaking will go on. 30 years ago there was no facebook, instagram or smart phones. We saw the damage was either in person, on tv. Or in the newspaper. We caught up with the photo journalist who was covering the world series when the quake hit. He ended uptaking the picture of a lifetime. One sered into our memories. We spoke to him tonight. It really wasnt an interview. It was a conversation that i didnt want to end. Can you imagine being 27 years old taking a picture that changed the way we look at earthquakes today. The laerds inside the bridge. Press democrat journalists going back to time. Reliving the moment leading up to taking this photograph. I imagine i shot this when i was on top of the ladder. Getting to that ladder is the beginning of the story. I was at candle stick park for the game. And the earth moved. It got quiet. And i looked across the field. I could see the field doing this. I checked with my boss. I said what do you want me to do. Go find a picture downtown. Bits of glass downtown. Wasnt enough for him. He want ld a picture of the collapsed bridge. I just ran. I ran up the hill. He encountered roadblocks and forced to climb exposed ladder between the decks. In a stroke of luck. He blend in with a group of sailors on the bridge because he was wearing similar clothing. And krindable effort to get in the position to take the picture of his lifetime. I dont know why i did it. Looking down and theres the road back there and the bay. If i fall im dead. I jammed the camera in the side and started shooting. I started shooting that vertical picture with the car. He shot about 20 frames. This is the one that put the small newspaper and porter on the map. Who would know an ent like that 30 years ago would change everything that we know about how to prepare for earthquakes. Porter didnt win any award with the picture. But it does have a spot at the museum of modern art. Amazing photograph. Emmy Award Winning documentary. It has interviews with so many people that remember that day. Where they were, what they were doing. Well reair the special on saturday at 4 00. You hear from all the players of the day. And how it unfolded. Great dock. Especially if you grew up to reflect what happened. Theres a generation of people that didnt live through this. We need to pass the message along. We have been remipded so much. The fact we have had a few earthquakes the last 48 hours. You can imagine if it was in the 6. 0 and higher range. Which is possible. On hayward. It should be mentioned hayward is 150 years since that fault has seen a strong earthquake. Go online and they posted a link i did earlier. On the fault. Just search for hayward fault or my name. And you should be able to find it. Top weather headline is related to allergies. Itchy eyes and coughing. Sneezing. A spike here i want to alert you. Trees and weeds in moderate. Pine, elm, sage and ragweed floating around. You have a nice friday forecast coming your way. We begin the morning you need a jacket. Down as low as 50 in the peninsula. Sun and clouds. Right through t east bay 50. San francisco 53 degrees. And north bay chilly at 47. I want to spend time on the futurecast. Its not going to be sunny from here on out. Into the weekend. Tomorrow morning some high clouds. As we hit the afternoon clouds pass over san fra fran and the peninsula. By the evening its clear. You think youre good to go for the weekend but i want you to be ready for this speed bump. Into saturday. Fog will get going at 8 00 a. M. Patchy drizzle near the coast. And by saturday afternoon, we could have cloud cover lingering. Saturday doesnt look to be the sunniest. I think we have great weather moving our way. Sunday. Right in now to tomorrow. We have you focussed in also on the next couple days. You can see the south bay. 72 morgan hill. Right through the east bay. 72 martinez. Concord 74. Peninsula no problem 70. San francisco maybe a three day weekendr 64. And maybe wine country. 74 napa. Extended forecast has warming coming in. 70s next monday, tuesday wednesday and thursday. Inland valleys the weekend looks good. Sunday the sunniest and 79. And then well turn up the heat. Temperatures in the 80s. What i want to draw attention to is maybe some more fire danger possibly by next thursday. Northeast wind ten to 20. Well watch it closely. Wind can change like a rainstorm. Right now thats the early indication we might have increased fire danger by next thursday. Keep a close eye on it with the pg e shut offs lately. Up next.
