What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorGloria Vance, BBN World. Al Jazeera reports violent clashes erupted after a mass housing protest in Barcelona. Protesters set fires, built barricades and hurled projectiles.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHousing is expensive. I live in a studio with a sleeping bag and a very confident radiator. I understand their frustration completely.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorAlso from Al Jazeera: Quebec separatists won the election. Parti Quebecois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon vows a future referendum on independence from Canada.

  4. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo Canada is being dumped. Politely, I assume. They'll apologize on the way out and leave a casserole.
