What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe New York Times reports the Bolsonaro family emerged triumphant in Brazil's elections, a surprising political resurrection in Latin America's largest nation.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorResurrection. So Brazil is basically a soccer team that got relegated, then won the cup. I follow.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNot quite. I covered Brasilia in two thousand eleven. I was asked to leave a buffet there. The politicians, however, always get seconds.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNext, the Black Sea. The Times reports drones hit ships off Bulgaria's coast, and Prime Minister Rumen Radev says a rescue effort is underway.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorOne of the two ships sank. It is not immediately clear where the drones originated. We will report more as it develops.

  6. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorDrones hitting ships is bad for shipping rates, correct? I'm guessing. I once shipped a Beanie Baby and it went poorly.
