Find out where and how you can win 900 in free fillup after the break. Ill be listening for that. Youre watching wusa9 and your have you seen the news about Barbara Comstock . First, the Washington Post reported, Barbara Comstock failed to report eightyfive thousand in income. Now, we learn, Barbara Comstock pushed a clients issues in the Virginia Legislature and didnt disclose it. Barbara comstock shepherded a trio of bills through the legislature and into law but Barbara Comstock never officially disclosed that all the while she was being paid thousands of dollars.

You know things are bad for the redskins when an opponent drags a player into the end zone. This was just ugly. It was nasty yesterday, derek. Disappointing to say the least. Its monday now. Everybody is dissecting how everything went wrong against the cardinals yesterday. Im sick of being monday morning quarterback. Wouldnt it nice just to be happy and celebrate the win . We may have to wait a while. A lot of blame to go around, right . Absolutely. If you watched the game, you know and after holding their own against arizona in the 1st half, washington fell apart in the 2nd. Its worth noting to know they ranked second in defense but 27th in points allowed. They didnt do their job keeping the cardinals out of the end zone. Receiver Larry Fitzgerald had six receptions for 98 yards. Washington backup quarterback kirk cousins helped arizona possessions by throwing three 4th quarter interceptions. Head coach jay gruden said it is time to regroup. Im not going to blame the players for poor execution and i dont think the players can say its the coaches for poor game planning. I think its a combination when you have the record that we have and as long as we all understand that, were all willing to accept the fact were all letting the city down, the better chance we have to get out of the rut. This is the worst start for the team since 2001. Theyve lost 13 of their last 14 games and lastly, since the nfl expanded its playoff system in 1990, no team has made it into the postseason after starting 15. Thats not good. I am reminded of the really bad days that tampa bihad and that detroit had, a couple really bad years. Were falling down into that category. Ive covered this team 15 years. If its not one thing, its another. Its difficult. Those stats are hard to look at, 13 of the last 14 game theyve lost. Thats not good. Losing begets losing. Need a winning attitude. Thank you.

Heres a look at some of the stop stories were following tonight. In dallas there is new information about a nurse who contracted ebola. Her name is nina thom, 26 and shes the first person we know of who contracted ebola within the u. S. She was caring for Thomas Duncan at the dallas hospital where he was undergoing treatment. Hes the liberian man who died last week of the disease. Now the cdc is investigating exactly how that nurse might have become infected. If we knew there was a specific incident such as a needle stick, that would indicate that we could narrow it down to healthcare workers at risk to those who had that specific exposure. Since we dont know what the exposure was, but we know there was an exposure, then we have to cast the net more widely. Now she and one of her close contacts are both in isolation said to be in stable condition. Another patient Texas Health Officials are vowing to take care of, her dog. Theyre trying to find an appropriate place to monitor the animal to make sure it doesnt show signs of being infected with the virus.

A bold request today from the vatican, bishops challenging the Catholic Church to be more accepting of gays and same sex couples. That topic is part of a vatican document 200 bishop plan to talk about with pope francis. One archbishop said homosexuals have gifts to off the community and asked if the vatican is capable of welcoming them without compromising their doctrine. It does represent a dramatic shift in how the church wants to be seen. By accepting that god is present in the lives of people even if theyre not living exactly how the church is teaching, that is a huge step forward. The document also asks if the Catholic Church could be more respectful toward unmarried couples living together and divorced catholics. Conservative groups say the report betrays Catholic Parents worldwide. Always watching always tracking wusa9 first alert weather.
