Just a few hours after the event david Vice President mike pence also slamming Media Coverage of the president s response. Take a listen to that. We in the National Media spend more time criticizing president s word than criticizing those who perpetrated the violence to begin with. We should be putting the attention where it belongs, and that is on these extremeist groups that need to be pushed out of the public debate entirely. David so, is the medias reaction to the president s statement overblown . Trump 20 to Advisory Board member. We have Brunell Donald shea, former d. C. Democratic party chair scott bolden. Good to see you all. Good afternoon. David good afternoon.

Quarter report. Could come out any minute. If history is our guide well see the stock move up or down as much as 10 based on what happens. First lets get you back to these stocks, dropping into the close. Lets go right to adam shapiro at new york Stock Exchange. Adam, it was about 2 30 when the market really began to slide. What happened . The. Reporter i asked some of the traders down here and they said it is just algorithms, computerized trading started the selloff.
