What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorGood afternoon. Al Jazeera reports Norway's football body has filed three complaints asking FIFA's Ethics Committee to examine the conduct of president Gianni Infantino.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe complaints question what Norway calls an abuse of power. FIFA has not been quoted in our data. I have attended his press conferences.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorBrave of Norway.

  4. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNorway filed three complaints? Gloria, that's a lot of paperwork for soccer. I thought the whole point was kicking things.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorVera, the Ethics Committee is the body that reviews ethics.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorAt FIFA, it is the quietest room in Zurich, and the one with the most dust.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo it's like a gym membership. Everybody pays, nobody goes. Honestly, relatable. I haven't been in that room either.

  8. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorNext. Al Jazeera says Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman reports the East-West pipeline is pumping five point eight million barrels per day.

  9. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorHe says capacity is restored after a major attack last month. Notably, the minister is the one announcing it.

  10. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorOil markets will draw their own conclusions.

  11. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFive point eight million barrels! That's a lot of barrels, Gloria. Where do they even park them? I can't park a Honda.

  12. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorVera, the barrels are theoretical. The oil moves through a pipe. Please never be in charge of a pipe.
