To the race for the white house now. Republican frontrunner donald trump is feuding with another journalist. It began at a Trump Press Conference last night in samuelm dunn buick, iowa. Sit down, you werent called. Sit down. Sit down. Go ahead. Reporter donald trump says jorge ramos, an anchor with univision didnt dnt wait his turn. Outside in the hall way, an unidentified man accosted ramos. Get out of my country. Get out. Reporter a trump spokesperson said the man is not with the campaign. All we ask, be respectful. Reporter the Trump Campaign later allowed ramos to return to continue their combative debate over immigration. So heres the problem with your immigration plan. Its filled with empty promises. Excuse me. You have to change the constitution, mr. Trump. Im not a bully. Reporter in an interview on nbc this morning, trump defended his decision to eject ramos. He stood up and started ranting and raving like a mad man, and, frankly, he was out of line, most people in fact most newspaper reports said i handled it very well. He was totally, absolutely out of line. Whats out of line is that i got ejected from a press conference simply for asking a question. Reporter ramos, the most wellknown hispanic anchor, spoke to us today from his office in miami. It seems to me donald trump is much more authoritarian than i originally thought. He doesnt like to be questioned. Reporter trump said hispanic voters love him despite his proposal to deport all 11 million Illegal Immigrants but his recent poll shows his favorability rating among hispanics is at just 14 and is unfavorability, 65 , far higher than any other candidate. But here in dubuque, the hispanic population is only 2. 4 , and during lunch hour at Town Clock Plaza today, fans of trump, including veteran jason davis, agreed with his decision to throw ramos out of the room. It was Donald Trumps press conference, and not the reporter, you know, to be in the spotlight. So i dont see a problem with that. Reporter on conservative talk radio today, trump said hes proud that he kicked ramos out of the room, but he also said hes glad he let him back in because it helped him avoid criticism. Jane. Pauley thanks, chip. Investigators went shopping for bargains on wall street today, and after five straight tripledigit losses the dow bounced back to finish the day with a gain of 690 point. Reason to call in our Senior Business correspondent anthony mason. Reporter jane, the rally held this time. All three major indexes were up about 4 today. The dows really was its Third Largest point gain ever. The turnaround occurred even though chinas nosedive continued. The shanghai index was down another 1. 2 wednesday. Pauley, so, anthony, why the turnaround. Reporter one of the reason is the head of the Federal Reserve said the case for an Interest Rate hike in september now seems less compelling than a few weeks ago. He said what were seeing is not a u. S. Problem. But markets may stay volatile for a while. On monday when the dow fell more than 1,000 points in five minutes, trading in 401 k plans, jane, was seven times the normal level. Pauley we will stay tuned, anthony. Warnings are up tonight for islands of the eastern caribbean, including puerto rico and the Virgin Islands as Tropical Storm erika approaches.

As you know, we lost 1800 of our brothers and sisters and our exphorgz fathers. It was really a very, very difficult time. But what happened amazingly that flood came in.
