Gallery will please come to order. Reporter in a vote overnight many thought would never happen South Carolina lawmakers move to bring down the battle flag at the statehouse and debated for nearly 14 hours passionately some with tears in their eyes. I cannot believe that we do not have the heart in this body to do something meaningful such as take a symbol of hate off these grounds on friday. Reporter lawmakers defending the battle flag argued for something, some nod to the history of so many. I grew up with that flag as a heritage. I didnt see issue and i dont see issue now. Reporter but the deaths killed at Emanuel Ame Church in charleston last month loomed large over the statehouse. I attended the funeral of senator Clementa Pinckney and the people of charleston deserve removal of that flag from this grounds.

Abcs chief investigative correspondent brian ross here with the story. Good morning, brian. Reporter good morning, george. U. S. Officials say they have no evidence that the computer breakdowns were the result of a massive coordinated cyberattack but some cyberterror experts say it is still far too soon to know that for the official version is it was just a computer glitch that grounded all those United Airlines flights. Let me apologize for the Technology Issues we had this morning. Reporter and that it was just a coincidence when another computer glitch shut down trading at the New York Stock Exchange forcing its president on to the air to calm nerves. It was not external. It was an internal technical problem. Reporter and when a third Computer Program blocked access to the wall street journal that it was just a coincidence. They do happen but its the job of the government to verify whether it was a coincidence or malicious activity designed to look like a coincidence. Reporter boek the Stock Exchange and Major Airlines are designated as critical infrastructure. Right now anybody who says they know for sure what happened before the forensic work has been done is kidding themselves. Reporter the disruptions were serious enough for the president to be briefed.

If they find someone interested in this we will see them give them directions to a mobile messaging app that is encrypted and tell them contact me here and they disappear. Reporter authorities call it going dark. The result they say of new technology on smartphones and computers which can make them immune to surveillance even with a court order.

One woman won big against a cable giant that wouldnt stop calling her. Were going to tell you how you can fight back too. Abcs linsey davis first with all the details. Good morning. Reporter good morning, robin. More proof that unwanted phone ring could mean caching. This latest judgment and others before it should empowers consumers to know they have the right to have Big Companies pay big money to account for those un unwanted robocalls. Weve all fallen victim to it but this morning one texas woman is cashing in on it. Time warner cable ordered to pay her nearly 230,000 after more than 150 robocalls were made to her cell phone. The judge thought was also particularly egregious was that they kept calling her after she filed a lawsuit against them. Reporter just look at this phone record. Six calls in less than 12 hours. Turns out the calls werent even for her. According to an fcc regulation its actually illegal for companies to robocall personal cell phones without the consumers per politician and if a consumer sue, they can be awarded between 500 and 1500 for each of those calls. 68 of cell phone owners say they receive at least some unwanted calls, a quarter of them say it happens several times a week. This man was called more than 500 times in a year and a half. Hi can i speak to leroy . This is he. Leroy. Yes. Hi may i speak with leroy buchholz. He bother calling me anymore. Reporter he settled for 27 275,000 and this 17yearold High School Student was called 204 times for a debt she didnt owe. They started calling two and three times a call so i just shut the phone off. Stop it today. Reporter the fcc passed new rues just last month making it harder for robocalls to reach you but experts say most consumers still dont know how to fight back. This is what americans will finally know is my right. Its my right to not be harassed by these people. Reporter a spokesperson for Time Warner Cable told us that they are looking into their options to determine how they will proceed. Now, if youre one of those people whos annoyed by robocalls, the lawyer we spoke to said keep a record of the calls, determine the business thats making the calls, tell them you want them to stop calling immediately. If they keep calling you, robin you can sue. All right linsey thank you. So many of us get these calls and they will not stop so we want to know how you can fight back and thats why our legal analyst dan abrams is going to weigh in on this. First of all the legal aspect of it. Our rights . A federal law and it makes it against the law to basically telemarketing purposes robocall automated calls with recorded messages to either a land line or a cell phone. Either one. Either one and it used to be tougher on cell phonesbecause, remember of course it used to be before we had these unlimited plans you had to pay for every call you got so immediately they went after the cell phones say, wait a second i dont want to have pay for these calls sending automated messages. Now youre seeing land lines are catching up to the cell phones. Bottom line it is against the law to do it. So we have our rights here so what do we do. Well first thing you want to do ask the company if youre getting them to stop doing it. You want to wafk to speak to a Customer Service representative and get put on their do not call list. If that doesnt work then you start to take some action. I would say take some notes, for example, on exactly when youre getting the calls, really important to have logs of exactly what time those calls are coming in. And the best thing you could do is try to record the messages. I mean if you can taperecord them then youve got the ultimate piece of evidence because then you can bring it a lawyer and say, look ive got these logs ive got these 2340e9s. Ive got these unwanted calls. Remember you have to have made it clear that its unwanted and youre talking about 500 to 1500 a call. How about political calls that we receive . Right, so those are sort of a gray area right now and some of these new regulations that linsey was just talking about could make it illegal for pollsters to be doing their kinds of calls, as well. Its kind of a gray area right now particularly in the landlines, but some of the pollsters are concerned that some of these new regulations are going to prevent them from doing what they do. And debt collectors. Debt collectors same thing as telemarketers when it comes to robocalls. Good to know. Thank you. Well move on to the heat index and amy schumer. Comedian is red hot. Got a hit tv show movie on the way and she is as candid as ever in an interview with glamour. Gender double standards and always staying confident. Heres paula faris.

Their own skin. I want to empower them to use their own voice and not apologize. She says things that youre not thinking. Sometimes you dont know youre thinking them until she says them. Reporter schumer has found Great Success in saying the things that most other women dont dare to. Boo work we hate work. Reporter getting attention recently at the women of the year awards by saying in her out outranges way she has no trouble attracting men. Im like 160 pounds now and i can catch [ bleep ] whenever i want. Thats the truth. Reporter echoing those thoughts in the interview. I have a belly and i have cellulite and i still deserve love. What makes women to amys brand of feminism is that while shes quite often angry at the injustices that she sees you end up watching these videos and thinking okay you know we can all do something about this. Youre kind of laughing with millions of women around the world and thats incredibly powerful. Reporter a woman now making us do much more than laugh. You are welcome. Theres more where that came from. Reporter for Good Morning America, paula faris, abc news new york. She does make us laugh. I cant wait for that movie. Trainwreck. The premiere in akron. Thats going to be great tomorrow. Also bur heat index, a story we first saw in the new york times. How you can lose weight without breaking the bank. It turns out the new Health Care Law actually requires Insurance Companies to cover some Weight Loss Programs. Abcs Mara Schiavocampo has the story for us. Lets go. Reporter losing weight. A universal struggle like some contestants on extreme makeover. You better run. Reporter and losing that weight often requires pricey diet programs. But now some weight loss regimens are covered under the Affordable Care act which requires insurers to pay for nutrition and obesity screening. Thats right. They pay you to lose weight. I went to every Weight Loss Program under the sun and it just wasnt working for me. Reporter nanette who says shes struggled with weight most of her life was shocked when her Doctors Program of high protein foods counseling and exercise was reimbursed by her insurance company. Had a 20 deductible and that was nothing compared to what i would have had to pay if i didnt have insurance. Patients are paying you know 40 to 80 less. Reporter today 23 states cover bariatric or gastric bypass surgery and 16 states now include some coverage for dietary and nutritional screening. Counseling and Weight Loss Programs. And you dont have to be so swearly overweight. Youll be covered with a body mass index over 30 or bmi of 27 with obeseity related diseases. Often their hypertension improves. Back pain. Reporter coverage is permitted for doctors and nurses and dietitians but not necessarily jenny craig or Weight Watchers and supplements, pills and shakes are not covered. Although some prescriptions are. There are concerns that it is also creating a financial opportunity for some unproven weight loss methods. There will be people that will offer quick fixes that say, look i can help you lose weight in six months three months 30 days, its just not sustainable. Reporter but for nanette who has lost over 30 pounds and dropped her bmi to 27 it has been life changing. For Good Morning America, Mara Schiavocampo, abc news, new york. Many people didnt realize. Yeah. Now outside to ginger. Good morning, robin. Look at this crude. Despite the drizzle in new york city my new little friend. Your name. Arianna. Shes from georgia.

She went away to school and came back and was like daddy, come on lets battle and we battled and when i got into bed i looked over at my wife and i said i barely beat her. I beat her. But i barely beat her. You really think. That was that time. He beat you . I mean do you think he beat you. At the time, yes. Come on. At the time.

Put that on the mantel and you know what. [ beatboxing ] back to you, robin. Robin, robin. A runnerup trophy for michael. Very close. Nicole my goodness. Something. Her daddy was so proud. I love that you watched him while she was beatboxing. He was like yeah. My girl. Order on the court. Order on the court, they really play by the rules at wimbledon and that goes for what the players wear and it has to be white. Thats strictly enforced by the fashion police. Lets go to the always fashionable lara spencer at the all england club with more on this. Tough dress code isnt it lara . Its unbelievable robin. For example, how could something so innocent looking cause such problem . Welcome to headbandgate. Whether whacking backhands in australia, forcing forehands in france or serving up slices in the good old u. S. Of a, there is no such thing as a skirt too short or color too bold. For the women, men of professional tennis. Except when it comes to this place. The hallowed halls of tennis where the only thing that matters more than 130 plus years of sporting tradition is the color or lack thereof of your outfit. Just ask this years quarterfinalist nick kqrgios who wore an illegal headband the crime, it was surprised of too much color but whats a player to do when the same illegal headband happens to also be the official tournament headband. Tweeting the official wimbledon headband is too clocheful for wimbledon. Nick kyrgios was forced to turn it inside out. Really. Tom perrotta tweeting its the greatest thing ever that the official wimbledon headband has too much color for wimbledon. 2014 Jeannie Bouchard faced the fashion miss for this infraction. A barely recognizable black bra. The chair ump complaining but the Referees Office ruling there was no violation. If you think its easy to skirt the law here take a look inside the competitors guide that says quote white does not include off white or cream. A single trim of color, no wider than one centimeter is allowed. So when did wimbledon get so picky . It may seem like its been this way for 137 years. But what about mcenroe venus, agassi. They had gotten a little more lenient until these showed up. That was too much and the 2014 it all stopped and it states only all white undergarments apply. Turns out white may just be the new white. They are not kidding around right now agoa radwanska is playing. Pretty boring looking but they do find their way to make their statement. If you look closely on the bottom ooh, shes getting wild with a little bit of lace much thats about as crazy as it gets here, guys. Well have a lot more tomorrow on the womens semifinals and so much more from wimbledon. Ill see you guys tomorrow and save a pimms cup for you. You better do that. Or not. Or not because we saw the pitcher you had earlier and i wonder somebodys official job to check the undergarments. Im not touching that one. Smart, george. Ali has taught you very well. You can watch all the matches from wimbledon on espn this morning. Back out now to ginger again. On this yeah hot and humid and drizzly morning. I found cassidy.

Where the temperatures are already into the 70s. Look at whats happening here with the numbers. They go into the 90s.
