so here i think it's reassuring for the book industry outside of amazon, amazon, amazon shouldn't have an anomaly on international sales because you can feel it locally in france. so if we can remedy this unfair competition so much the better business, because i, i think it's important in society to help local businesses and especially booksellers and buy books directly from the bookseller rather than amazon. but of course, it's also important to keep an eye on good value for money. i am ready to pay more . our booksellers offer us a service that is not bad, and advised that amazon kenneth, necessarily give us. i think it's a good idea to help them. well, if i find that a sales platform cannot replace booksellers with their advice, but we must admit that it's extremely practical either when we're far from the points of sale or when i'm looking for a very specific product. and i know that on this platform, i will find it. nevertheless, we must maintain a balance of all sales channels and indeed, one must not be able to kill the other. and especially booksellers, this is not the 1st time

and political commentator nico house says amazon should do more by amazon managerial staff and ad were vill, illinois knew that the tornadoes were coming because, well, they admitted they got alerts. us through various apparatuses like text messages and phone calls and even more so even more so they had advance notice not that day, but days ahead. it also probably means that the amazon managerial st staff should have been taking precaution, given that the national weather service made it perfectly clear that there was a valid storm system for me in that area. now they did not close the facility that day. they didn't even close the facility early that day. this seems to be emblematic of a major problem that has been consistent with amazon working conditions. seemed to be unbearable for amazon workers to the point where they are now banding together across the world to combat them. this is not a one off situation. they were given a couple of days. notice about the volunteer needles in the area, days, not hours date. they could have close early. they could have, as they could have made an

sellers that sell on amazon marketplace and wholesalers that feed amazon's retail business amazon claims that everything it doesn't business is all about the consumer. our investigation reveals otherwise. amazon indeed is focused in the evidence is compelling on one thing, the bottom line. even at the expense of consumerss and it claims to care so much about. in fact, amazon cost all of us more money by controlling prices across the us with the entire electronic mall. like you, i also the capitalist people should get paid for the hard work creativity and entrepreneurship they should certainly much profit increase as business increases. but when companies like amazon unfairly and unlawfully increase prices on all of us and stay for competition in the lawn must step in to say enough is enough. back in 20 need team amazon is facing pressure from congress and regulators over anti- competitive behavior and with the concerns of amazon and other big tech is as bipartisan as it gets. amazon claim it removed a particular clause in the agreement with third-party sellers tohi prohibit them so inclu

that works at amazon? we're now be allowed to meet on company premises outside of working hours, which previously wasn't allowed? well, i think this is a huge victory for labor that the current general counsel of the national labor relations board is made clear that she is serious about enforcing worker's rights to unionize. and this is going to have an in norm, its impact in the united states. amazon is one of the biggest employers. and this settlement sends a strong message that employers, no matter what their sides have to fight with us law and give their workers the opportunity to join together and act collectively in their own interests. amazon. as you know, incredibly powerful company. do you expect it to abide by the changes? will the labor board monitor the changes? what, what significant about this agreement is that amazon has agreed to these conditions? and so if it does not abide by them, the labor board will be able to enforce them without going through all of the procedures which can be quite

and meanwhile, amazon is had a bit of a visual issue in that jeff bezos. the head of the company has been sending a bunch of rich people, including a broadcaster, am from ab seats into space while this was going on. so there's a bit of a disjunction here visually between a company that on the one hand was trying to celebrate something of a gimmick. and on the other hand, is dealing with a real tragedy in which families are grieving the loss of their workers at amazon. and so that investigation will look into whether anything was done wrong here. as you are talking that john was saying, we could see a crane in the background. how is the recovery effort coming together? absolutely, i don't know if you, if you can see the crane right over there, but what's happened is these power lines, they've gone down when this happened, there was some, there was a lack of communication in the area because of the power went out phone lines. i believe went down for some time, so the workers are out here. they've closed the road that we are on, but kindly allowed us to stay

amazon's illegal agreements. all of these agreement reduce an online marketplace ability to compete with amazon's marketplace on price and results in consumers getting artificially high prices. even outside of this litigation, small businesses have complained and complained amazon has strong business ideas and got them off amazon's own. >> attorney general, i will have to stop you here in a minute, we've got about five minutes for each of our witnesses but we will be able to ask you some questions because i definitely want to hear this. is that okay? >> absolutely, i am happy to stop right here. >> great, okay, thank you so much. appreciate it. mr. flynn, you are recognized for five minutes you need to hit your button. >> chairman warren, ranking member cassidy, members of the subcommittee, thank you for inviting me to speak with you today on this fundamentally important topic. i direct the open markets answer to ed it's good to see you today. economics of the governing of how people compete with an exercise powe

amazon warehouse that partially collapsed. there were 2 people who died in arkansas, one of whom was an elderly resident of a nursing home. and the sad part of this is even as more rescue workers in search, cruise, dig through debris all across the section of the united states. as patty said in her report, this death toll across the country is expected to climb. and b, c correspondent, jay gray, has mall from manette in our console. it's overwhelming the damage here, the nursing home, the back end of its last and we'll show you that help you. we'll talk about the federal help. we're starting to see some of that on the ground here. they're going to need it not just now, but for a long time because of situations like this, you can see what the wind did here, picked up these cars through them. rip them apart, basically throwing bricks and other things into the front windshield. and then the assault on this nursing home, you can see what it did, it ripped apart the wall and the roof. but the backend, as i said, is for the most par

i'll speak to john henry, who's outside the amazon warehouse in edwards village, illinois, shortly. but 1st let's bring in hi, be jo castro. she joins us from mayfield in kentucky. so heidi, what can we expect to hear from biden when he visits the state? well sammy, he will be visiting with the 1st responders and also with the survivors of this devastating tornado that happened on friday. he'll be touring this town of mayfield and we are in downtown, and you can see that destruction rock stretches as far as the i can see. this is one of many communities that were simply leveled by this disaster. the death toll here in kentucky at 748 of whom were people trapped inside of a candle factory nearby. and now there have been allegations from workers there that their bosses said they would be fired if they went home before the storm. with christmas approaching worker as of the mayfield consumer products candle factory were rushing to fill holiday orders. despite fridays, ominous skies. 20 year old elijah johnson says he felt nervous when he clocked in for his shift. and worse, after a torn

by fridays. devastating tornadoes ended. illinois investigation is underway and the collapse of an amazon warehouse that killed at least 6 people. john henry has more from outside the white house. the investigation is a standard thing that the occupational safety and health administration does. it could take up to 6 months for them to come up with any conclusions, and they're gonna look at whether anything was done wrong here by the folks at amazon who run this facility already. one of the families of those who of one person who was deceased, his hired famous lawyer, bon crump, the civil rights attorney, to look into whether there was a possible wrongful death in this case. and whether they might want to file a civil suit. crump has also been talking to other family members, but for many people, the question is not really whether amazon failed to obey the existing laws, but whether the existing laws are strong enough because they don't require a hardened tornado shelter. in areas like this, iran's foreign minister says you and cameras will be allowed to fill me with a sensitive nuclear si

similar to amazon's flex app. that is like uber where people make amazon deliveries in their own vehicles. they simply could not log in and get assignments. there will be a lot of packages backing up. if they get it resolved, they can dig out tomorrow, but if it lasts, this could be a big problem. emily: what is amazon saying about this? spencer: not a lot. they have been posting things on their aws help dashboard. the most meaningful thing they have said is that they don't have any kind of eta about when they will be fully recovered. they did some mitigation measures and things like that but even when they get to the bottom of the problem and fix it, these things can linger for hours. they are not out of the woods yet. emily: what do we think is the root of the problem? spencer: i don't know. that is a great question. we usually get a postmortem from amazon a few days later. generally, these things are learning opportunities. amazon should be transparent to help the whole industry avoid a similar problem down the

now osha taking notice and investigating amazon warehouses. it only took a building to collapse on itself for the government to say, hey, maybe employees safety is not the top priority at amazon. you should look into this . maybe this will be the crisis that will turn the u. s. on the right path towards protecting workers. meanwhile, other countries are going above and beyond defending them. a german court ruled a fall on a walk from your bed to your desk is a workplace accident. ok, germans are just showing that they have brakes and have enough time to walk to their bed. i bet they're even allowed to go to the bathroom, look at their phone or have lunch lunch. that's so you're in. i hear they mainly serve cigarettes. we have to go to a quick break, but if you want exclusive redacted tonight, extra content, check it out at portable dot tv. stay right there, and will be right back. ah ah ah, ah ah, ah, ah, with ah, with a clue right now. there are 2000000000 people who are overweight or obese. it's profitable to sell food that he's fatty and su

if we had everyone locked down, if amazon had to shut down their warehouses and big-box grocery stores had shut down and the weed dispensaries had shut down, we probably would have had two to three weeks before there was a lot of screaming you can't do this to us and you can't do this to the economy. but because those were allowed to continue to be essential and some of the handful of folks like the airlines that were actually not directly affected, but indirectly affected by some of the mandates, they got this incredible direct bailout, but with a small businesses got was this ridiculous ppe program, which was a fraction of the overall dollars that were put out and certainly not enough to compensate the taking of property so you had this crazy set of winners and losers and that enabled the wealth transfer because you had the businesses that were closed and customers were patronized into big companies and the revenues were growing. and at the same time, you had the federal reserve intervening at historical levels and at this point i think the balance sheet was just hair shy of $8 trill

amazon warehouse that partially collapsed. there were 2 people who died in arkansas, one of whom was an elderly resident of a nursing home. and the sad part of this is even as more rescue workers and search crews dig through debris all across the section of the united states. as patty sat in her report, but this death toll across the country is expected to climb. all right, so how does your castro there live in mayfield in kentucky? how do you? thank you. well, nbc correspondent, j grey has more now from monica in the arkansas where that nursing home has been hit. i'll walk you through exactly what the storm did. here i came across the parking lot. you can see what i did to these cars, pick them up through them, rip through them, and then a direct hit as you talk about right into the facility here. the nursing home with the wall ripped off the roof as roof as well. the entire back half of this facility basically is gone at this point, left and crumbled the brick and twisted metal shattered glass. here, one of the patients did

the worst devastation is in the amazon. it's heartbreaking, like walking through a graveyard, a once thriving habitat suddenly silent. and for scientists like erika berenguer, dedicated to researching the trees, the losses are profoundly depressing, and they affect them personally. for me, it's really important, because the amazon cannot speak up, the trees cannot speak up, they cannot say that they are worth it. and they have a value, they are really important, so i have made this my life. the deforestation happens for a reason — it's big business. the trees are cleared to grow soya for animal feed and to raise cattle for beef. the products are then traded all over the world to consumers who may never realise where they're from. so, there's a good chance that i've eaten food that originated in the amazon. as with a lot of people, i'm finding that the penny is now dropping about the impact of the choices we all make. for example, with food, where it's grown, how the ingredients are transported, and in particular, what hap

amazon says they solved most of the problem that had to do with amazon web services. the outage happened earlier in the day. looking at the three day stop, it is hard to tell there was anything amiss. a slight drop at peak trading. amazon locked in a 2.5% gain on the day. other companies impacted, robinhood, disney, the cloud computing provider, amazon web services, it did not impact their stock. although services were temporarily impacted. according to amazon, what happened is they identified the root cause was internal and systemic and they have now mitigated the problem and are working on resolving the increased error rates they have in their computing system. but at the peak of the issue, what you had at 10:00 a.m. eastern was packages piling up and drivers without roots and -- routes and sidelines because communication was down. millions might have been impacted. people trying to buy airline tickets and stream movies from disney or netflix, netflix had a 26% drop in traffic during the problem. amazon said they have mitigated the problems. it was not a hacking iss

the country according to amazon. laura: what is an lgbt book? is that an author who is lgbt or book that touches on lgbt resident combo? >> i don't know. my book is about a walrus. who knows? >> the children's book publishing industry, most parents don't give a lot of thought but from the books that are assigned, i can say this from junior high to high school, elementary school, what kids have available in their school curriculum, so much of it is never going to withstand the test of time and that is putting it charitably. >> a lot of it, there's a lot of racial indoctrination, antiracist baby, critical races theory and that sort of thing, so much is general ideology and general ideology is so absurd they realize if they want to convince people that they have to get to them when they are very young and not able to establish between fantasy and reality and making commonsense judgments and that's why it is important to brainwash the kids early and important for us to protect our kids from that brainwashing. >> one teac

it has fined amazon for alleged market dominance and one of the biggest penalties ever imposed on a u.s. tech company it strongly disagreed with the regulator's decision and would appeal we should mention eu competition commissioner margarethe did will be here and she did work on it with the italian government. >> it's interesting how she looks at the regulation in europe versus d.c in terms of this fine, $1.3 million is a speeding ticket for amazon. amazon has spent fines and hasn't done anything to change the business model and it does add to the ongoing pressure and regulation that these companies are seeing. >> john, it's been a few weeks, actually a couple of months since we spoke to her at code, but she's definitely viewing regulation and trying to argue that there is a mind meld between u.s. regulatory frameworks and those that we find in the eu. >> sometimes these fines, carl, get overturned so we have to keep watching it and sometimes even when there's a ruling somebody gets a stay >> tonight, oracle, broadcom, lulu, costco let's get to the judge and the half >> carl, thank you

again, a few thin things on amazon identified 12 over 46 companies as top picks amazon didn't make the top pick for mega cap and a couple reasons. one, we're tracking literally week to week the performance of amazon relative to expectations and what we're seeing is at least quarter to date definitely seeing amazon lose share in this holiday season and we think one of the cull pritds for what's going on is something that's super popular in the uk that click and collect in europe for the last 10, 15 years and the reason e-commerce in the uk is 30% penetrated in the u.s. it is still half of that maybe 15%. what we are seeing are the -- not all but a number of large brick and mortar companies like walmart, target, they have gotten much better at doing e-commerce in general and improofing the omnichannel capabilities, allowing people to order online adobe saying 25% of all online orders collected in store. they say that in the last four days before christmas as much as 40% of online orders collected in stores and that's not something that amazon can participate in right now so we are cautio

is investing correctly and wisely amazon is doubling down on infrastructure here for faster or more consistent one day delivery and what i call super same day delivery, the ability to order something and get it within five hours. amazon is going to be able to do this faster and better than everybody else and consumers are going to share more of their pocketbook, wallet with amazon. >> mark, pre-pandemic you and i would bump into each other at travel conferences what's the winner in 2022? >>, you know, the -- you're right. the recovery -- you can put them in recovery basket, the challenge with the travel names however is they already trade as if they have recovered they're already at peak multiples and they have been for a while. it creates less upside if you want a recovery name trading at close to multiple, i like uber, one of our top three picks for this year. >> uber has underperformed this year great to see you both. good picks as we round out the year >> thank you >> happy new year. >>> coming up, joyce chang, watching the year ahead and her contraryian call when it comes to ch

the digital markets act aimed to force more competition for tech giant like google, apple, and amazon with a list of do's and don'ts. on the other hand, the digital services act is focused on protecting consumers from illegal or harmful content. the principal being, what's a legal offline should be illegal online to. now that you hopes that these rules will apply in 2023. but the question is, where would that leave big tax? big plants are reporter daniel winter steps into facebook's matter, verse for announcer. it's a wonderful, magical experience. here i can live by true self business and pleasure. this is the met of us, at least that's met his vision for the future. the company formerly known as facebook, had a rocky ride in 2021. but could this bold new plan help it faced the future? the missing at the end of october c, e o. mark zuckerberg gave you is a taste of the met of us, a virtual world to live, work and play and field at the same time, announcing a rebranding day. our company is now met a big commitment to the grand vision. however, critics called the dumping of the name fa

legal mining under all the sustainable conditions could be good for the amazon. the demonisation of mining only creates the stimulus for illegal mining, which is something that, yes, that can create a problem... i don't think you're arguing with me that the bolsonaro administration has utterly failed to stop the illegal mining or indeed the illegal logging, but before we finish and we don't have much time, let's just get on to your analysis of where brazil sits in the international community today. i just wonder whether you feel that your foreign policy strategy, which was very loud, vocal support for donald trump, very loud, vocal condemnation of china, whether you think that that has been strategically wise for brazil. yes, of course. well, for the first time in many, many decades, we had a strategic foreign policy. before i was there and after i left, now we're back to a mediocre foreign policy that only thinks about today's gain, and even that is not coming. for the time... you described, you described donald trump as the saviour of the west, even after the a

facebook called meta platforms its return 25% it's a little ahead of the s&p it's also beaten amazon and tesla. but jack, look at some these others off about his beating it was 40% is what microsoft from 30 points. i think you have to include video that's beating facebook my more than 100 points. i am not making any predictions about what the stock will do what the company will call itself a year from now. [laughter] thirty-seven carlton pat yourself on the back for calling attention to a firm early this year it is done very well but i've got to ask you how does it make any money? the firm lent me money to buy that peloton and literally is not charging a penny and interest-free. >> when you look at the firm they're counting less one of those people not bring them to keep up with the payments they promised to do. now, the stock as you point out did very well the back half of the year. buy now pay later become a very hot space in 2021. but a hot space also becomes a crowded space bar to going to look at firm in 2020 to competition. super excited people are signing up for this by now pa
