we thought that was a really big idea, a groundbreaking trials that could help drug companies monitor house patients are responding to treatment. she was working with some of the biggest pharmaceutical companies, and working with the pentagon on ways to monitor wounded soldiers for infections, even post traumatic stress syndrome, and on the verge, she said, of a device that could perform hundreds of tests on a tiny sample of blood but that was a breakthrough theranos couldn't manage [ inaudible question ] >> reporter: tomorrow, as elizabeth holmes continues under friendly question from her attorney kevin downey, she is likely to talk more about what she did do when she was confronted with those problems,

tonight. why now for and how long do you expect this wave to last >> i think you're seeing them now for a couple reasons one there's been long-standing problems in the economy for decades with wages, benefits not being good enough, you know, with bad schedules and the like. then you have the covid economic, which really, really crushed a lot of workers and made them work incredibly harder, or in risky situation while they saw their corporations making record profits. so workers are frustrated, but right now they have some power, because there's a very tight lake market workers are -- they want to seize this opportunity to try to improve the quality of their jobs. >> let's talk about that when you say the solution to the worker shortage is to improve job quality or the quality of their jobs, what do you mean by that >> a number of things. jobs that provide good wages, a

career ladder, and safe are in too short of supply right now. the kind of things i think we need to do, some of it is workers taking direct action like they're doing now, trying to negotiate to get higher wages, but the economy has been tilted in the last three or four decades toward corporations and away from workers, so we need policy to tilt the playing field back more towards workers. things like the build back better act and the infrastructure deal which always has standards to ensure they'll be good jobs but also that allows workers to join unions more easily. do you think this could flip back and have businesses regain the upper hand >> well, i think you'll see

these strikes continues while unemployment is incredibly low, but you know, over the past four decades we've only had a handful of years with really tight labor markets like this. so i don't anticipate this happening for a long period of time unless we can shift power in different ways, not just by having a tight labor market, but by having policy more on the side of workers. >> all right david, thanks for joining us tonight. >> thanks for having me. it's not even thanksgiving yet, but christmas is just around the corner. just 33 days from today, in fact retailers are gearing up for a huge shopping weekend, starting with black friday. according to a survey from the national retail federation, many americans already bought their gifts. a report said about half on the survey checked our their list earlier than usual nearly 30% completed their

totals. >> early shoppers end up spending about 23% more on average. i already bought extra stuff i was like, this is all i'm getting them, and then two weeks later, my gosh, they didn't have this two weeks ago. >> kohl's got a terrific response to the preview event. macy's said shopping began earlier this year. the retailer's ceo said it doesn't know how much was done early until later in the season. still there are those whose normal is waiting to the last minute, and counting on normally fast shipping. for them, that tradition continues. >> amazon is on point. >> amazon is always on point >> reporter: well, despite the early shone, 2 million more americans are expected to shop in store on friday, making it the biggest in-store shopping

the ioc shared this image of the call in a statement an official said she appeared to be relaxed during the conversation we're also told she accepted an invitation to have a dinner with the ioc president in january forensic experts say it's difficult to authenticate it >> lingering questions after she dropped off public eye, she then reappeared, apparently, in beijing over the weekend, doing a video call with the president of the international olympic committee. the ioc saying peng told thomas bach she is, quote, safe and well, about you would like her privacy respected at this time the statement doesn't refer at all to the allegation or why there was concern for her in the

first place. china's government has sid nothing, and then over the weekend, a handful of state media twitter accounts offered a parade of images as so-called proof that she was fine. she is featured at a kids' tennis tournament, then pictured signing autographs, and then another picture at the restaurant in the video there was a lot of talk about the date. >> yet, in the blitz of being seen, peng is never heard. this expert says he sees variations. >> the only way i could verify it is a person actually seeing that person in real life in a press conference other than this, multimedia doesn't mean anything. >> the women's tennis association still says it cannot reach peng while it's positive to see her, a statement said, it remains

reporter adam woodard joins me now. what chance do they have of competing with it? >> that's a tough question, especially with the news that broke earlier. some players have said no in the past, but it's important to note that zero players have officially signed on as you mentioned earlier, this event -- venture has criticized an to wash its human rights campaign, as we saw recently with the english soccer team, and it's another thing long story short, the live golf enterprises backed by the public investment fund of saudi arabia, they would to guarantee millions to some of the biggest players when this got kicked around about 18 months ago or so, three of the top players said this were not interested.

so, it's going to be tough to get the players to officially leave the tour, even though they are offered guaranteed millions of dollars, and it will be interesting to see if anyone jumps at it. >> let's talk about that news, which is that the pga is responding, by raising its own payouts. is that right? >> it is and today, which calls -- brought this extort earlier today. it's important to know that the commissioner did not once mention the saudi golf league, any of that. this was just a way to prove to his players he has their back. what they're going to do is increase the player bonuses and the prize money for a lot of tournament in 2022, mainly the marrquee event those are the ones they'll target to increase the player moneythat's going to be going

there. as far as key criticism of the tour, it's been the biggest players on tour, those guys haven't been compensated enough. over the years that's been true. it will be tough to make an argument because of the player impact program, which is basically going to give players for driving social media engagement, that will grow to $50 million pool there's a program that's been instituted where $50,000 are giving to a player just starting 15 starts. there's a lot of money that is being given to the biggest players right now. i think commissioner monahan may keep the players here in the united states. >> and a glymph of -- glimpse of tiger woods on the course. what does that mean? >> a lot never doubt tiger woods, no matter what he's been through. sure that crash was -- we saw

nasa is about 30 hours away from a mission the redirection test or d.a.r.t. spacecraft is set to blast off in california. it will travel to an asteroid mover than 6 million miles away and rack into it this particular asteroid poses no threat to earth, but nats is hoping the technique could be

used to redirect an asteroid before it hits earth why is this mission so critical to nasa right now? >> thanks for having me on today. what's really cool, as you said, this is important for us to test this technique now we want to be ready, if and when there is an actual real threat to earth right now because of the known asteroids we know about, there's none posing a significant threat to earth in the next century or so, but if we discover one, we want to make sure we have the tools in our tool kill to try to change the orbital path. >> can this be programmed as it approaches the asteroid? or do you set it and forget it how much notice do you need before launch? >> those are great questions

my understanding is this will take place overnight tuesday night. what happens if you miss >> the spacecraft will launch overnight tuesday night. it will take about ten months for it to travel and cruise out to the asteroid. it's a double system with two asteroids that the dimorphous rotates around the other, and then it will -- we're going to change the orbital period about several minutes. >> so fascinating. lori, thanks so much for giving us a peek, really. lori glaze with nasa. the nba suspects lebron james for one dame the league suspended stewart for two games. they got tangled up during a
