F. L. Team owners will meet next week to consider a new rule forcing players to stand during the National Anthem now dozens of players and knelt in protest against Racial Injustice and country the Players Association has defended its members right to Free Expression but the leagues commissioner Roger Goodell has now written to team owners urging everyone to stand Diane Estabrook has been following the story for us from washington d. C. Part of the problem is this is an issue that were now three weeks into and i think the n. F. L. Is hoping that this would just go away and it really hasnt we saw Vice President pence walk out of the game over the weekend now today President Trump tweeted that if these players continue to meall that maybe their teams shouldnt get tax breaks which is interesting because n. F. L. Teams do pay federal taxes but the president s spokeswoman said later today that what he was referring to were potential state or local subsidies that these teams might get now further exacerbating the issue is that jerry jones who is the owner of the Dallas Cowboys he said a couple of days ago that if his team members dont stand this week for the National Anthem that they would not be able to play and in response to that a local union in texas has filed a complaint a complaint with the National LaborRelations Board so this is been a big problem for the n. F. L. Many fans dont like the fact that these players arent standing theyve been taking to social media to talk about it and the n. F. L. Has an issue has had a problem over the past couple of years with a decline in Television Viewership and so there may be some concerns that if this continues that they may continue to lose some of these viewers and that could mean a loss of ad revenue they they do want to support their players Roger Goodell said in his letter that they were looking for some other sort of platform where these players can speak out the n. F. L. Players association at this point isnt commenting although if you do go to their website they do say that there are a labor union they do say that they are actively involved in their communities and they use that as a platform to speak out on social issues plenty more fallout from those well cup qualifiers coming up in nice great with tatiana but for now its back to sale thanks very much for thought.

The scandals are seen by many as a further blow to japans reputation for Quality Manufacturing that reputation has allowed Japanese Companies to charge higher prices compact to cheaper compasses such as china not all analysts think the scandal is a disaster for japanese brands japan tends to have a lot of over spec right you know they really if you want to have the las three percent of perfection you have to go to a Japanese Company because theyre the only ones doing that while everybody else you know whether its korea whether its germany whether its india you know operates on a minimum viable standard kobe still said the misconduct involved dozens of employees in as many as four factories and possibly going back ten years the full Financial Impact is still not known but it could be huge if customers request replacements the companys share price has already taken a beating on the stock market Florence Louis aljazeera tokyo.
