were told they were too dark so if racism is to blame at least from yours and mine from a western viewpoint what happens when it's committed by one's own community. i'm not even going to attempt that but you and i know that within any particular demographic or or or culture you are people who go through shift changes where they me like shirton. looks who was. there but accurate says julie. on the the chat who said she had to look less asian ok why. is that is with in any group sometimes things are in some these are our sure but here's my question is it cultural appropriation remember that term i know i don't understand i'm glad you brought that up i mean we have seen the life and i don't know how many are like like dove hiring models who are really models their everyday
7:12 pm
people all colors all sizes shapes that's great they're being inclusive but you brought up an actress but what what about these a listers like like beyonce tyra banks mary j. blige for example those african-american women they dye their hair blonde could they also be accused of perpetuating the myth of white is beautiful in some way and why are they being accused of cultural appropriation. you know all the have to do is still die there here but call it something else call it not black and less dark haired colored less brown less just change the name that's all it is just change the name because people are going to see through this look this is a lot of people with too much time on their hands we're trying to do something just to say they've done something this this is what we're doing in lieu of making societal changes we're talking about nomenclature and taxonomy and appalachians and
7:13 pm
this is insane but you know what i love about it you and i can talk about it and i guarantee you everybody in the world agrees with us right now it's not because nobody asked for this nobody's marching forward to change of a cosmetic label but you know what they're corporate conglomerates they're there to make money and this is what's popular and they're going to go sell it lionel so we will leave it right there little see my friend line a line on media thank you so much. thank you so much. the european commission delayed a decision on their travel ban refusing to comment on the list of countries whose citizens will be allowed to enter the e.u. in the coming days but one thing seems likely americans will not be on that list on boys met in brussels over the weekend and narrow down the exact criteria for countries but their main goal is to limit the spread of code 19 now the new round of negotiations is expected to last until the end of this week. all right it is

7:17 pm
german tech company wire card is under fire today and some $2100000000.00 u.s. dollars seem to have vanished from the company's books for those here in the u.s. why are cards similar to the popular venlo 1 app which users can transfer funds back and forth or comparable to twitter founder jack dorsey square used to process vendor sales now wire cards users in the u.k. found their accounts bros and unable to access their money and now the financial conduct authority is jumping in and so here to fill us in on all the details host of news with rick sanchez rick sanchez right rick what is going on over there in the u.k. . well no this is germany that we're talking about germany is that disaster right now germany is a financial disaster let me take you through some of these companies and you've done these stories i know you have. a bank disaster. we did the story last week disaster volkswagen. literally at the barest went all over the world with
7:18 pm
what they tried to pull off and now wire cart but another german company that's in the midst of a huge scandal and this one goes. where is $2000000000.00 where is it it's disappeared can you imagine a company not being able to account for $2000000000.00 off its financial statement like one day they just saying sorry we just we just don't know where it is so essentially they've declared themselves now insolvent they owe their creditors $4000000000.00 nobody seems to know there's coming people all over the world have been investing in this company i think it's now i know its stock was up about 140 now it's around between one and 3 people have lost their backsides as a result of what's going on many people are real. there's a lawsuit that's coming but this really comes down to do things right corporate governance what was going on with the corporation so i could model you and i have
7:19 pm
a company and somebody comes in saying hey how's that mcmillen record company doing and we're saying oh we're awesome our revenues are off the charts we're doing great and then somebody says can i think a look at your financial statement and when they go in there they find that we've got we're broke that's essentially what's going on with this with this company they owe their creditors 4000000000 their stock is down 98 percent but here's the other part of it because governance is what you're supposed to do right when you run a company then there's industry regulation right so the german government is supposed to have a regulatory system that watches out for people to make sure that people like this by the way the c.e.o. is already been put in jail the c.e.o. why are card they're supposed to look out for people like this will what will they do with apparently nothing because this is being called as you said the enron of europe. they were busted not by government officials regulators but by the financial times a newspaper that was being called even in german circles news for doing this story
7:20 pm
turns out they had it right all along and if somebody would have listened to him they probably would have saved some people millions of dollars well the reason i brought up the u.k. was because a lot of the users are and business owners that use wire card our kate so they're literally up in the air especially with on the heels of cold it right they're reopening their businesses and now this happens to them rick so a lot of people are obviously very upset there this is you know trans continental i think it goes all over the place but what they're saying is that this is going to cause a lot of distrust in fin tat i mean do you think we'll see a ripple effects here like with our vet no. well you know it does make you wonder right because what do these companies do they're the go between so when you are go online and unfortunately in this. it's a lot of it was adult sites and gambling well they didn't just do that they did other stuff but you know when i go online and we order i don't know something from wal-mart or something right and when we fill it out we put in our credit card and
7:21 pm
then they take the credit card this company is responsible for being the go between between the brand or the product that you're buying the bank that you're using that's associated with your get a card and then of course it's making sure that you get it from the back it's like an online cargo bag exactly that's what they're about what they're saying they were doing so how do you know where the money is you know it's that's probably one of the problems that we're facing today not just with this company that's why your point is such a good one. it's opaque so when they look at there and they say well how do you make your money they go trust me we've got so much money because we've got to deal with this bank and this bank and that bank and it's all of that's grow and we've got about 1000000000 here and 1000000000 there they don't necessarily have to show it and that's the problem here but it may be too difficult to find out what they actually have or i don't have and again let's make sure it doesn't happen again and again rick it's another case proof in the putting that technology is way too many
7:22 pm
