lets check the roads with kim brown. >> good morning. we have quite roads around the beltway on the west side, traffic moving at speed, no real issues or delays at this time. however, in baltimore city we have a road closure because of a watermain break. that is going to be at west 29th street between sissobon. and huntington. two construction projects in the area, northbound 97 at new cut road. and northbound 95 approaching 695. the projects will be picked up probably within the next 30 minutes or so. back to you. >>> 5:31. one minute they are hanging out. next minute they are wearing a red cape with a big s on their chest. >> it's a story of two teenagers now being called heroes because they saved a woman's life. here's abc2 news linda so. >> reporter: they put their own safety at risk and ran into a burning building to help save a woman trapped inside. pete "on the street" o'neal captured this exclusive video of firefighters racing to the scene for the rescue. it happened before 1:00 this morning on sheldon avenue in northeast baltimo

and joining us from hollywood is kim serafin, an editor if "in touch weekly." first, i want you to take a look at a bit of what fox played during their nfl pregame show on sunday. and frankly, i think they should be ashamed of themselves for this. take a look. >> man, i still can't believe tony dated jessica simpson, even after she blew up bigger than flozell adams. >> hey! >> hey, tony, is jessica around? we could use a defensive tackle! >> yeah, yeah, very funny. fox has now apologized for this. but jessica is still stiticked . she fired back on twitter. i thought it was great what she wrote. "i will never understand why people attack for a laugh. own your beauty and don't listen to the judgment." she handled with this great class and gave great advice along the way. kim, you with me? >> absolutely. this was in such poor taste and it wasn't even funny. and it's not relevant. the last time people were talking about her weight was when she wore those mom jeans. she wasn't fat then, she's not fat now, and she's not even dating tony romo anymore. and to compare h

kim, do you get it? >> yeah, i kind of do get it. because as much as we understand that kate wants to go on tv and address all of the stuff that's going on and she watches us on showbiz talk about her and make judgments and she wants to get her side out there, it's not quite believable. i don't think anyone believes that she can't pay her mortgage or that she can't pay her bills or she's having trouble getting money to feed the kids. it doesn't ring totally true. and it seems like she's out of touch with her fan base, the people that wanted to support her, people like me, i was a fan of the show before. i'm an independent woman, i wanted to support her. it seems li s like she's losing touch. >> she doesn't across as relatable. ben, why do you think the tide is turning? >> i was surprised by those poll numbers, a.j. i remember that women didn't like her before, they thought she was domineering. when jon started to mess up she got a bounce. she hasn't held on to that. those numbers are bad for the show. if it's kate plus 8, women aren'

kim, are you with me? >> it was in such poor taste. it wasn't funny. it's not relevant. the last time they were talking about her weight was when she worry mom jeans. she wasn't fat then, she's not fat now. she's not even dating tony romo. it doesn't make sense. compare her to a 350 pound lineman. i don't think people found it funny. i think it will give her more sympathizers. >> here is the thing. this is exactly what's happening today. a lot of people are saying, you know what, she's a celebrity. she's fair game. even jokes about her weight are fair game. do you think jessica has a right to be mad about this? >> certainly she has a right to be mad. as a pioneer, someone that opened up her life to a reality television show. her weight, unfortunately is fair game. for fox to drag themselves in the middle of really is something insensitive to their consumers. they are forgetting about focusing on their consumers and focusing on jessica simpson. it is fair game but out of line and i think their consumers are going to speak loudly. >> you make a great point. you wonder what
