Challenging day of technical glitches for the worlds large effort Stock Exchange, and one of the worlds large effort airlines. Trading at the New York Stock Exchange was suspended for several hours and United Airlines had to ground flights for a short time because of computer problems. Leaselisa stark joins us from washington and what do we know about these glitches . Well, tony, as you can expect the first concern is was this some sort of coordinated cyber attack . Thankfully, it was not and it was internal problems with the Computer Systems and that was the word today from the secretary of homeland security, who was speaking on a forum on Cyber Security. Ive spoken to the ceo of united, and it appears from what we know at this stage that the malfunctions and united and the Stock Exchange were not the result of any nefarious actor. We know less about the wall street journal at this point but their their system. And madge the the wall street journal, their system was off for a while. A
Get out of irmas deadly and destructive way is scheduled for 9 30 p. M. Our time. Almost completely abandoned as that city braces for what is going to be a very difficult weekend. A little while ago the National Weather service in key west tweeted this. This is a government agency. This is as real as it gets. Nowhere in the florida keys will be safe. You still have time to evacevac. Lets again our team coverage. They should take the warnings seriously. Lets check out our Hurricane Irma. Its massive storm. It stretches across the caribbean.

A live look outside in ocean beach, its all cloudy and still the breaks allowing for people to get out there and walk the dog. Its still cloudy, though, as we take a live look outside. Weve dropped down to 61 degrees. It is a cool day and it will get even cooler as this front moves in for the north. Still well to the north of us as of now, but starting to see a little bit more of the rain in the parts of the north bay and napa and sonoma counties. This is what we can expect once again off and on as the days goes on. A closer look, light activity, very hit or miss. Weve been seeing some of the rain changing over to snow in the sierra, especially as you climb elevation above 6,000 feet. We will have rain in and around the bay area but not everyone will see it at the same time. So we are going to have some times of breaks and wet weather. Ill talk more about that and what you can expect as you make weekend plans coming up a little bit later. All right. Well check back with you. The rain i
Good, well researched, deep dive into what works in organizing. One of the problems with our media landscape is i could probably go find mike 1700 pieces on whatever the president put out on twitter yesterday. But an actual helpful account of how to organize communities, grassroots, anticorporate power, that is asking too much. And i know the richmond california story is an important story and has been told. Ive seen a couple of articles about it. And again it is one of the real sort of stories we should be learning from especially in a town like baltimore that shares a lot with richmond in the deindustrialization, racism, poverty and really one of the most important things is the lack of luxury to kind of get hung up on not working together. Like baltimore, richmond is simply too small to have too many divisions and what is exciting about what i know about the story is they found a way to get over the divisions, worked together in alliance that was able to get stuff done including ele
