4:02 pm
assignment. you can see what the markets did on the news related to china. the u.s. trade representative's office highlighting, saying the agreement here is very close to finalizing some parts of the phrase one deal here. that is progress like we saw in last may, treasury secretary told me 90% of a trade deal was finished before it all broke down. this time the chinese have a little more motivation. the motivation is tariffs. they do in the like the tariffs. would like to see them repealed or removed on this. they plan to ask u.s. team on the call today to postpone 15% tariffs set for december 15th. the president right before he left for south carolina seemingly confirming that ask. >> like to see some tariffs that are scheduled to go on very soon, they would like to see them not go on but china, they really, look you know it, they really want to make a deal. they will be buying much more farm product than anybody ever

4:04 pm
electric fireplaces. countries can get the tariffs repaid on tariffs back to september of 2018. back to you. melissa: edward, thank you. all three major averages ending the week in the green. let's go to gerri willis for more. reporter: melissa, this is a tough market. no bad news can get it done. we had earnings from industrials. s&p 500 not making to the new high. look at some dow winners for the week. intel, caterpillar, dow. intel with stellar earnings out there. caterpillar earnings were not that great. investors believe all the bad news is out. dow reporting a profit beat. s&p 500, weekly winners, bio again saying they're bringing back out an alzheimer's drug that was so disappointing before. they think it will work now. a lot of hope. mohawk industries, that is an economy play. they do carpet, doing very well indeed, a beat on earnings.
4:05 pm
meanwhile pg&e shares tanking today after the company said malfunction in one of it is power lines may have sparked the kincaid fire in the northern part of california. a citi analyst said that could drive the stock to zero. it is not far from that. we had earnings from anheuser-busch, bud, poor growth in key markets. revenue 2.7% higher. 4.7% was expected by analysts. big disappointment. the stock is down and down pretty hard. melissa, back to you. melissa: gerri, thank you. the final results from the united auto workers vote is expected any minute. grady trimble with more. reporter: we just learned report the united auto workers, gm employees approved the tentative agreement effectively ending the 40-day strike all the 50,000 voters, workers had the opportunity to vote on the
4:06 pm
contract throughout the week with voting ending today. we don't have official numbers because voting closed at 4:00 eastern. this was kind of expected by general motors stock. it has been climbing all day today. it is up 2 1/2% at the close. the people who like this contract, the workers who voted in favor of it, said hey, this gives us pay increases. our health care costs stay the same. we get an 11,000-dollar signing bonus there were people who weren't quite happy of happy of it. it didn't do enough to protect american jobs. it confirmed the closure of three plants. the signing bonus might have swayed workers. they lost $6,000 of lost wages while out on strike. that signing bonus allowed them to break even and then some quite a bit. this contract negotiation are important, ford and chrysler will follow suit. in other words this contract will be the template for those negotiations which are stillton going right now.
4:07 pm
but the big news today, that the 40-day strike is effectively over as a result of this vote. we are expecting workers to go back to work as soon as tomorrow. still awaiting on official vote counts and statement from uaw and general motors. melissa: thank goodness. thanks, grady. mapping future of journal i've, ceo mark zuckerberg sitting down with news corp ceo robert thompson as the social media site officially partners with major publishers to launch a new feature called phrase book news. susan li is live in the newsroom with details on this one. reporter: select audience, 200,000 will be a select audience for a news service facebook is launching. back and forth between mark zuckerberg and robert thompson, news corp ceo. for a long time publishers complained facebook is eating away at their revenue. a lot of articles in the media properties are shared on facebook for free between

"wall street journal" according to news corp properties will generate double digits for publication on facebook. ask why they are launching the news service, zuckerberg says there are other reasons as well. >> part of us being a trusted source it needs to have a diversity of, of basically views in there. so, i think you want to have content that kind of represent
4:09 pm
different perspectives but is doing so in a way that complies with the standards that we have for this. reporter: so he included a lot in that sound bite because you can hear from both sides, meaning democrats, conservatives as well. also verified information, not opinion in these articles on facebook. that means no misinformation, no fake news. they have been accused of swaying the 2016 vote with. melissa? melissa: susan, thank you for that. china not the only one taking issue with the vice president. one of the biggest names of basketball is telling mike pence to quote, shut the hell up when it comes to the nba recent firestorm. that's nice. plus following the money, former vice president joe biden under fire for reversing a campaign stance. steve forbes sounds off later this hour. we're live from the world series. connell? connell: melissa, washington nationals returning home here to nationals park tonight to hope to continue their red hot

4:15 pm
traded, manager fired. but they turned it around. the that underdog mentality that took place, including great playoff wins galvanized the fan base. washington is a place where people come from all oaf the country. it is not necessarily for an easy place for a sports team to build a following. this team has it. connell: they legitimately do. many didn't grow up here. >> right. connell: is it about this specific team than the franchise, the city has taken to, the nationals team? >> that is part of it. everybody loves a winner. when a team wins people come out of the woodwork to support it. that is fine. that the is way sports is and life is. all of that plays a role. there is lot of excitement about long-time residents for the first world series championship since 1924. connell: i don't think many people remember walter johnson. >> first world series appearance

since 1933. this is the first game of magnitude in this city, i can't do the math but a lot of years. connell: with that said do you count the astros down two games to none? >> no. i am surprised they're down two games to none. greg key has been great tomorrow in post-season. they need relievers to patch together a game it will not be easy. connell: i ask you one or two money related questions. we talk to you one or two times a year. baseball, what do you say about the state of the game? they say what has to change. game has to be faster, play with different ball. what does baseball fit in the sports landscape popularitywise? >> it is still problem. there are problems, no question about it, but the bottom line, quite good, from a financial perspective the sport is doing well. attendance is down but they're

4:24 pm
sdf wanted us to see how much they were struggling. they were crying out for western help. here is what we saw. like everyone else in this room trying to explain why he joined isis, why he was an isis fighter. they claim they were here for humanitarian reasons. they turned their back on the terror group. speaking to the guards, prison authorities, they say that is not true. these people are all dangerous. they want us moving further into the room for our own safety. this is the story you hear time and time again from these people. they were cooks, cleaners, didn't commit any atrocities. we know there are prisoners trying to break out of the places. others seek to rejoin isis. that is great threat. that is the great threat to the u.s. and to the west, particularly as the turkish invasion takes place in the north. half the guards in this camp had to move nor to try to repel that. they are saying they need more people. they can't keep this up.
4:25 pm
this can't go on indefinitely. this is the threat that is worrying people most. president trump has been urging western countries, european countries in particular to take back their foreign fighters. they have in fact invoked their citizenship. while the sees fire is shaky nothing can happen. there is one of the great concerns. there is isis footprint. the isis ideology is strong t coo be a major issue in the future. melissa: benjamin, fantastic reporting many be careful. you're bringing great stories. be careful. hitting back at his critics 2020 front-runner joe biden criticizing president trump in the administration we'll downplaying his son's ukrainian business tie. >> that is simply improper you should make it clear to the american public everything you're doing is for them, for them. and the idea that you're going

4:27 pm
you go out after the other person's children. it is just, not terribly smart. similar to when, i guess what makes this really poignant in my eyes is that when he went out on the trail and began his campaign, he sat down with robin roberts for the first interview to say i'm running. she said, what is your slogan? to make america moral again. i want to restore integrity to the country. this is the same guy overseeing the ukraine the very same second his son was sitting on a board taking a huge amount of money from a corrupt oligarch. does he not get sort of the hypocrisy what he does, do you think? >> he has probably been in politics too long. that kind of behavior why donald trump won in 2016 for all of his flaws, allegations against him. people are sick and tired of politics as usual by elites obviously cut off by the rest of the population. one rule for them, the rules for the rest of us. melissa: meanwhile taking on

front-runner bernie sanders, biden campaign reversing position on super-pac donations. let's be clear, super-pacs exist for one reason one reason only, to help billionaires and corporations bankroll a presidential campaign with unlimited amounts of money in exchange for favors. every democratic candidate should forcefully reject any help from super-pacs an tell supporters and surrogates to stop engaging in super-pacs. biden is not getting the small donations. i don't know if he has a choice to do this. >> he claimed long ago that he advised bernie sanders way back when not to take money from super-pacs. once again when circumstances change the chameleons change with it. melissa: yeah. what do you think happens -- bernie sanders is having his own struggles at this point. as they take shot at each other, joe biden is the front runner. what is happening to bernie sanders do you think? >> he is struggling. biden has not collapsed despite

poor debate performances. showed signs of life in the last debate. if he does that in the next debate, he would be genuine front-runner, not a declining front-runner. meantime bernie sanders has not been able to come up with things exciting or perceived by the far left as exciting as elizabeth warren has or mayor pete from south bend, indian, so he has to find something new. he hasn't found it yet. attacking super-pacs isn't going to do it. melissa: speaking of money, elizabeth warren will come out and tell us how she pays for "medicare for all." you and i both do not think math is a myth. math is not a right-wing conspiracy. there is no way to pay for what she is talking about. what will she come up with? >> fiscal malpractice applied to medicine. she will come up with ways to soak the rich like never before, not realizing when you attack capital investment in this country you have declining values which means you will to the have the resources.

jeff bezos, most of his money is tied up in amazon. if that stock goes down, there goes 10 of billions. she doesn't get it. but she doesn't want to get it. keeping in mind, melissa, talk about chameleons, 20 odd years ago, senator warren was a devout republican. democrats don't know that. she has other things to answer for. melissa: really? you will tell everybody she is a republican they will get hip to it and understand? >> no. they see a person who changes as she sees circumstances changing. >> she never wants to answer the question whether you will raise taxes. the truth is that the is wrong question. even if you raise taxes on everyone you still can't pay for what they're talking about, right, steve. she will conjure up like barack obama, we'll have savings. we'll find ways cutting out profits of nefarious profit-takers. voila, we'll have free medicine. it doesn't work. the only way makes it work is rationing health care, they have

4:37 pm
economic and military power of the world. so the american public should be tuning in to exactly how this works out. i do agree with mike pence that the nba is acting as a wholly owned subsidiary of china because for decades american businesses have turned their eyes to chinese values. the nba is now importing china's tyranny in america. in america we value two things uniquely, free speech and economic freedom. that is colliding. connell: you sounded like shaquille o'neal? >> i think shaquille o'neal is absolutely right. connell: that is interesting. you deal in those worlds, if you're talking to a company, nba or some other american company, they watched what happened, what advice would you give them in terms how they deal with china and how they frankly deal with the public relations of all this in this environment? >> absolutely. when you're dealing with china, in china, abide by what they're doing, but when you're in the united states you have to understand and we're proud and different. you have to remember you're a u.s. based company. nba was found in 1946 in new york. your roots are in america.
4:38 pm
you have to respond and understand those values. if you don't, this is not going to work. connell: brings up one of the wider issues, the vice president talked about this yesterday, are china and the u.s. decoupling from each other? can we really coexist if our values are so different on the corporate level? do you think we can? can we live in two separate worlds, make money for each other, do we have to separate? >> i think we'll have to find a way to work together and live together because essentially you're talking about the world's two biggest economies. china with a billion plus people. and two countries with serious military ambitions. they have to find a way to make it work, if they don't, we can't live with the two biggest economies fighting each other. connell: you're in front of national as park with a red tie. i assume that is for a purpose. >> of course it is for the nats. this city is electric from southeast, northwest, maryland to virginia. nothing i have ever seen in the short time i've been in d.c.
