What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorAs we told you earlier, Apple deals are still live. The New York Post says up to forty-seven percent off AirPods and iPads. Wonderful!

  2. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorBut here's what's new. Fox News says a Barefoot Dreams blanket is still fifty-three percent off for Prime Big Deal Days. A blanket, folks!

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFifty-three percent off. That's the only thing on this desk that's ever been a confirmed winner. Warm, soft, and it never reports earnings.

  4. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFox says it even earned a spot on Oprah's Favorite Things list. That's basically a blue chip with fringe.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'm going to wrap myself in it and watch futures not move. Dale can keep his bunker. I have a throw.

  6. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorNow a bigger story. NBC News says the DNC is suing the administration over taxpayer-funded TV ads supporting President Trump.

  7. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorNBC says Trump announced this week that he and his PAC, MAGA Inc., will pay for the ads going forward, after bipartisan criticism.

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAP says the suit claims the ads violate a propaganda law. Axios says the DNC wants the ad blitz stopped. Everybody's got a headline.

  9. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo the ads are getting a new sponsor, and the lawsuit is still on the calendar. I love a plot twist more than a drive-through!
