HELLO EVERYONE AND HAPPY FRIDAY – WELCOME TO REAL NEWS AND WEATHER WHERE WE GIVE YOU A LOOK AT YOUR TOP HEADLINES AND FORECAST FOR THE WEEK IN UNDER FIVE MINUTE – I’M DIGITAL CORRESPONDENT SARAH STRACKHOUSE. TOPPING HEADLINES THIS TODAY…

Lawmakers are about to take a two week hiatus but THE HOT TOPIC RIGHT NOW IS Attorney general William Barr’S RECENT TESTIMONY THIS WEEK. ACCORDING TO Fox News WEDNESDAY HE SAID HE BELIEVES QUOTE “SPYING DID OCCUR” ON THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN IN 2016 BY THE FORMER ADMINISTRATION BUT THE QUESTIONS SWIRL AROUND WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS QUOTE ADEQUATELY PREDICATED.” DEMOCRATS AND FORMER FBI DIRECTOR SAY THEY QUOTE NEVER THOUGHT OF ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE AS SPYING.” MEANWHILE THE FULL MUELLER REPORT WITH CERTAIN PORTIONS REDACTED IS SUPPOSED TO BE RELEASED ANY DAY NOW.

YESTERDAY THE SENATE CONFIRMED DAVID BERNHARDT AS THE INTERIOR SECRETARY. THE VOTE WAS 56 TO 41. HE’S A FORMER OIL AND GAS LOBBYIST AND WILL NOW MANAGE NEARLY HALF A BILLION ACRES OF PUBLIC LANDS. MOST DEMOCRATS ARE NOT IN FAVOR OF HIM SAYING HE NOW REGULATES THE INDUSTRY HE USED TO WORK IN, REPUBLICANS SAY HE HAS EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE AND WILL BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS CORRECTLY.

AND DISNEY IS GETTING INTO THE STREAMING FIGHT. THE NEW PLATFORM COMING OUT NOVEMBER 12TH WILL COST JUST SEVEN DOLLARS A MONTH AND TRYING TO RIVAL NETFLIX. UPON THE ANNOUNCEMENT SHARES WENT UP 11 PERCENT AND NETFLIX DROPPED 2.1 PERCENT. DISNEY HAS SAID IT WILL FEATURE KID FRIENDLY PROGRAMMING WITH 13 CLASSIC ANIMATED MOVIES, 21 PIXAR FEATURES, OBVIOUSLY ORIGIAL SERIES, AND MARVEL AND START WARS FRANCHISES. THEY’RE PLANNING TO SPEND ONE BILLION DOLLARS IN THE NEXT YEAR.
