Ladies, welcome to you both. Let s go first to you, kathy, close to me in new york, what more are we learning from the cdc data on the breakthrough cases? reporter: good afternoon to you. We are learning the extent of how dangerous the delta variant really is and how contagious it is, even among the fully vaccinated. Cdc officials are saying the war has essentially changed. You mentioned earlier that there was an outbreak just a couple weeks ago in provincetown, massachusetts, and among the infected threequarters were actually fully vaccinated, and based on further testing most of them had the delta variant. Also at this current rate, according to the cdc documents, at this current rate we re seeing 35,000 breakthrough cases, but we do want to let folks know health officials are saying that vaccines are still effective, despite these new alarming numbers, and this is more reason for folks to get vaccinated, because we know now how contagious the delta variant is. It s as contagious as
Listen to it. They know, when it hits the bottom, it will be 1990. Goodbye, to the 80s. Eight, eight, eight. Will this horrible year never end? when the 90s begin, we are starting to see a lot of experimentation. And the simpsons i think, in some senses, was inspired by not necessarily hatred of television but a distrust of a lot of the ways, in which television was talking to us. Tv respects me. It laughs with me, not at me. You stupid i think the sitcoms of the 80s were such a, sort of, warm, safe humor. You see? the kids. They listen to the rap music, which gives them the brain damage. And i think there was a real yearning for another type of humor. We were able to spoof fatherhood. What a bad father. Which, at the time, and i stress at the time, was bill cosby as the shining example. The stuff they got away with, because it s a cartoon. The father strangling the child. You little! we are going to keep on trying to strengthen the american family to make american families a lot mo
Prices that keep spiking. We begin with peter. Charles, good afternoon. President biden says he wants to spend a few trillion more because the trillions he s spent on pandemic relief have been panning out. We needed to act quickly and boldly to save jobs, save lives. We had a more than 600,000 jobs a month since i ve taken office. 3 million jobs all told. It s the fastest growth at this point in any administration on record. That kind of fast growth and fast spending means inflation. Inflation has increased notably and will remain elevated before moderating. That s as some republicans are against letting the government intervene the way the president wants. This bill has been looked at from people on the right and left. It does not add to inflation. The democrats are doing with the $3. 5 trillion bill would add to inflation. Have a look at this video from this afternoon. Know masks, no social distancing. Lots of touching, which is normal for a biden exit. But it s notable because he en
Generation x, whatever these young girls were called were a hard sale. Advertisers would pay premiums for college educated and young adults, 18 to 49. We started reinventing and trying to speak to that audience. Where is someone? i am starving. Is there a table ready? the chinese restaurant was one of the very, very early episodes of seinfield. Truly nothing happened in the episode, they were waiting for a table. I feel like just walking over there and taking some food off of somebody s plate. We said to larry david, hey, nothing happened. And larry was offended. He was wildly offended. Nbc believed in the show so they said we are committing to four episodes. Yes, all right. Normally is 13 or 8 or something. At least. We didn t think they had too much confidence in the show. We didn t think it would work. We felt they had to go through a process and they would learn. You know, i was alone. The turning point for seinfield from like nice show that all of the cool people kind of know abou
I got a girl, hung herself. My heart started racing. You found her. I did. They ruled it a suicide, but was it? at the scene knives rose, a cryptic phrase. Her hands were tied, she was naked. This was sending a message. That wasn t the only suspicious death here. No mom wants to hear that her son was a victim of homicide. Something happened at the top of the stairs. What really went on in that mansion. Hear from the man at the center in his first television interview. You thought you had nothing to hide? i knew i had nothing to hide. The worst shock in probably my entire life. Hello and welcome to dateline. Victims families have often described their feeling of loss simply as surreal. And so it was for both families, their tragedies were entangled in a mystery that enthralled the nation. At the center of the story to puzzling deaths and lingering suspicions. The search for the truth would pit the families against each other in a battle sparkling more questions than answers. Here is jos
