Or friday eve. Reporter little friday. There we go. How are you doing. Reporter day before the weekend. Lets call it what it is. A mixed message on wall street yesterday at closing. Reporter yes, but we did dow. Its 68th record of the year and if we do close today higher, the dow will reach its 69th record close of the year which would be the most ever. The last time it did this was back in 1995 so right now futures for the dow pointing up. Well see if that continues but yesterday the s p 500, which had been on track for another record, did close down, all on that news from the fed as far as their Interest Rates rising just a little bit and then the Economic Outlook for the next year. Okay. Lets talk about something kind of fun, kind of weird. 7eleven getting into the delivery game. I mean, the beauty of 7eleven, tracee is that you can usually find them anywhere you are in the area, you run in for a coffee or slurpee but okay, what are they going to be delivering exactly. Reporter if you dont have time to go foot store and pick up your cheetos or your slurpee then 7eleven launch their new app, its called 7eleven now and you can shop for items all from the convenience of your smartphone and youll be able to set a time where you can go in and pick up the items. Okay. Reporter or you could have them delivered. And right now 7eleven is testing this out in about 10 Stores Within the dallas area. They plan on rolling this out next year. And so the 7eleven team says that this is redefining convenience. Which i guess it is. Well, you know what, now that you put it that way with the app because sometimes i go in and i have my heart set on like a chicken tack quito and they dont have it. Maybe if i reserve my tack quito reporter there you go. I wont laugh at that one. Those who know me know i always say burger king usually does sort of cool stuff and then mcdonalds does it and gets all the shine. I remember when burger king had a meatless option and. Reporter yes. They dont have it any but now mcdonalds overseas is touting there mcvegan. I know its not the exact same thing but this is not a new idea like all these options on the menu. Im just saying. Reporter no, no. So, this is meatless its a soy based patty but theyve launched this in finland. They tested it. It went surprisingly well, so well that they added it to the permanent menu in finland. Theyve also expanded to sweden. Who knows. Will this come to the United States . Right now i think about 6 percent of americans do identify themselves as vegan. That number is up so this could be Something Else that maybe mcdonalds will venture into. I personally, i dont eat meat and im not sure that i would be able to try this. I dont know, it just doesnt sound right to me. Right. Im telling you though. Reporter a vegan sandwich from mcdonalds. Back in the day burger star or something that used but as a person who grew up as a vegetarian it was a nice option versus when i went to mcdonalds and i would say with my friends could i have a big mac just leave the meat off of it and they would be like okay. So anyway im here for it. Tracee thanks. Well see you on real friday, tomorrow. Reporter sounds good. See you soon. All righty. Bye. 6 25. Always options. Do you know what im saying . And im not shaming any franchise but when one franchise does it, that gets less the shine and then the other one that is more popular and seen that is irritating to me. I think you just called it out. I did, didnt i. Yeah. Theyre not our sponsors anything anymore right . Okay,. Good morning. Yes, a couple leftover snow flurries, few School Delays off to the north, places like Carroll County maryland where we picked up anywhere between a half inch and an inch of snow just to our north, places like Howard County, parts of northern Montgomery County got a little snow so there you go. 38 now in that, what.

In were in good shape locally. Well be kind of partly sunny today. Our clipper system is moving off to the east. Our cold front moving through will kick up the winds.

You might have seen the articles going around social media announcing the redskins new name. Change their name to the red hawks. Awesome. No, its fake. Its a big online hoax and today the native american advocates behind it will speak out. The Rising Hearts Coalition set a press conference for 2 oclock this afternoon outside of rfk stadium to explain why they did this and to tell redskins owner dan snyder to change the name already. In a statement yesterday the group said they wanted to show the nfl and the washington football franchise how easy popular and powerful changing the name would be and went on to say were asking for changes only, four letters, certainly the harm to the mascot or harm the mascot does to native american outweighs the very minor changes. The Redskins Organization made it very clear the name of the team is the Washington Redskins and will remain so in the future. Last night the Rising Hearts Coalition held an event to prepare signs and other materials for todays rally at rfk and a rally at fedex field planned for sunday. They say the entire operation was a move to troll the skins and they took the bait. It was finally revealed that it was not the Washington Football Team that did this they would have to come out and say themselves that, oh, we arent changing the name. They have to say that, oh, yeah, we are a racist team, were not changing anything at all and thats exactly what dan snyder says in his statement today. It forced him to admit that the name is and the mascot is both racist. So, the four letters theyre talking about change the word skin to hawk and there you go. Seems easy to me. Fake sports news but effective yesterday in getting the message out. Im changing name, thats all im going to say. Hello. I thought the logo looked pretty cool. Its tired, the name is tired. Love the team. Im over the name. Im sick of it. Its embarrassing for me to say to other people, hey, im Washington Redskins fan. How do you feel about it. I dont like it. Okay. Lets go to the forecast. Im on the record. I think youre officially on the record. 38 in washington. All right, im on the record for saying that the snow that we got last night was generally light but a pesky snow because it was sticking on the roads. Sure. Take the easy way out, tuck. Right. Yeah.

Winds out of the south and west here and the only reason i mention it is once that front comes through the winds are going to pick up again out of the west and north and west and again it will be gusty winds at times this afternoon. Flurry up towards baltimore. Thats about it for the flurries out there early this morning. Our clipper system is getting out of here and you can see most of that energy is off to our north and a little weak cold front off to our west will come strolling through here and this will bring us a cold overnight tonight.

So, again, were not done with the cold here as temperatures will be in the 40s this afternoon. Kind of partly sunny later today. Notice cold tonight, 26. 37 tomorrow.

The New York Times was barred from publishing any more dealing with the vietnam war. If you publish well be in the Supreme Court next week. Meaning . We could all go to prison. To make this decision, to risk her fortune and the company thats been her entire life, well, i think this new movie directed by Steven Spielberg. The cast will be in d. C. Tonight including tom hanks meryl streep. Well be lie from the premiere. Well have all the interviews tomorrow morning. I had a chance to sit down with Steven Spielberg of the the time line for this film is fascinating. It reinvolves around the story in the early 1970s when the post went ahead and published the pentagon papers which proved the government was lying to the American People about the involve. In the vietnam war. The story has so many the freedom of express and rr happening now. Parallels people are making. I spoke to spielberg. He visit the the post on may 25th of this year. This movie came together very quickly. I believe it was around march when he was in negotiations to direct the film and around may 25th he was here with tom hanks and meryl streep visiting editorial meeting at the post much they started shooting the movie on may 30th in new york and now its opening up on december 22nd so i talked to spielberg about his involvement and being at the post with hanks and streep. Watch this. Now on may 25th of this year you went to the post with meryl streep and tom hanks and you did editorial meetings. I was curious what you learned from a 2017 meeting at the Washington Post that you utilized for a 1971 story line. I think it was you know, i was looking around the room and its interesting that in a movie if i had gone to the Washington Post to witness them putting the on their feed, its digital and its online you have to have these meetings every couple hours in the old days they would have i presume one meeting for the that edition and then another meeting for the next edition for the late edition but this was different. If i was shooting the scene i would have every single reporter and staff editor in that room paying attention to the editor not taking their eyes off the editor. Doesnt work in way in real life much everybody has their phones out. Its not that theyre not paying attention, theyre sourcing, getting confirmation for other stories that might go into the paper that might contribute to when it comes their turn to talk about what theyre putting up on the site or in the paper that day, theyre compiling all of that. Its a lot of people looking down, making notes and that gave me i said when we actually shoot these scenes everybody should be doing their own thing. They dont all have to be completely, you know, you know, praying at the feed of ed theyve got their other jobs to do for ben and for Katherine Graham but theyve got their own work to do. And so the film opens up on december 22nd. Tom hanks plays ben bradlee the executive editor of the post and meryl streep plays the publisher. She was the first female publisher in the country kay graham. More from spielberg coming up at 7 47 this morning. It was a fascinating interview. A rare moment to speak with him oneonone.
