board this weekend. dry and sunny on sunday. >> sounds like a good reason to sleep in tomorrow. for all of us here at nbc 10, i'm renee chenault-fattah. >> i'm jim rosenfield. good night. on our broadcast tonight, deadly mistakes. a hospital with a lot to answer for tonight. the ebola patient who died in dallas was initially sent home with a 103-degree fever. while in the air new scares for passengers and the screening at u.s. airports begins just hours from now. bad advice. microsoft ceo pressured to apologize after telling women they shouldn't ask for a raise in the workplace. he said it at a women's conference. the backlash was instantaneous. and making history two years after an assassination attempt for daring to go to school, the young student named malala is now the youngest nobel peace prize winner. "nightly news" begins now. from nbc news world

headquarters in new york this is "nbc nightly news" with brian williams. good evening. nothing we learn now about thomas eric duncan will ever bring him back, but today there was a bombshell revelation from the hospital in dallas where he died of ebola, where he first sought treatment and where as we learned today he was sent home with a 103-degree fever even after telling a nurse he had traveled from africa. ebola has now been officially labeled a global crisis. and as it spreads, assisted by jet travel, hospitals like the one in dallas must now change the way they operate and the way they look at patients who walk in the door of the er. it's where we begin tonight in dallas with nbc's ron mott. >> reporter: when thomas eric duncan first sought treatment at texas health presbyterian hospital late last month, his temperature spiked to 103 degrees. and rather than admit him, emergency room doctors ran some tests and sent him away with antibiotics and tylenol. two days later he was rushed by

ambulance back to the hospital where he died wednesday. >> this is a love story -- >> reporter: today, outrage from a spokesperson for duncan's fiancee. >> why send home someone with a 103 degree temperature. if you went to the hospital, and your temperature was 103 degrees, no doubt they'd send you home. >> reporter: some 1400 pages, in addition to an elevated fever he complained of abdominal pain, dizziness, headache, decreased urination and severe pain. >> one would be loathe to discharge such a patient without being more certain of what's going on. because a patient with 103, they're usually pretty darn sick. >> reporter: presbyterian hospital said in a statement the nurses, doctor and team who cared for mr. duncan grieve his death and that the hospital is committed to providing the best possible care to every patient we see. the hospital also said it's made

changes to intake process as a result of duncan's case. the hospital said duncan did not receive blood from american ebola survivors like dr. kent brantly. >> i would express to them my deepest sympathy. my heart is broken for his family. >> reporter: meantime, as the house homeland security committee discussed the handling of duncan's case. >> while there have been many positive aspects of this response, there have always been missteps. >> reporter: the mayor praised the response rebuffing suggestions that race played a factor in duncan's care. >> i don't believe it happened. and i'm going to make sure that i find out all the information to ensure my belief that it didn't happen. >> reporter: and some more encouraging news tonight, there are now signs of ebola sickness in any of the people who came into contact with thomas eric duncan here in dallas. and we're told the freelance nbc news cameraman being treated for ebola up in nebraska has improved slightly, brian.

>> ron mott starting us off in dallas. thanks. some travelers will notice new ebola screening measures beginning tomorrow. at first one of only five u.s. airports where they're planned, but after a pair of incidence aboard two flights, there are now questions about how ready the feds are with procedures for protecting especially healthy airline passengers. one passenger caught up in an ebola scare last weekend told us it felt like they were making it up as they went along. nbc's hallie jackson following it all from our l.a. newsroom tonight. hey, hallie, good evening. >> reporter: hi, brian. there are supposed to be protocols, but two resent incidents show how confusing and frightening the reality can be. this was the view from the window of a delta flight that landed in las vegas earlier today. quarantined at the gate after reports a passenger who recently traveled in africa had vomited. passengers were frustrated. one tweeted, if there is ebola

on this plane, i want to get off. another sign of the panic now caused by ebola, this scene wednesday on a u.s. airways flight from philadelphia to the dominican republic. >> it's going to look worse than it is. >> reporter: hazmat crews were called in after one passenger reportedly sneezed and then yelled i have ebola. the airline was checked and vacationers allowed to go on their way with parting words from the flight attendant. >> i've done this for 36 years. i think the man that has said this is an idiot. and i'll say that straight up. >> reporter: all this on the eve of a major screening operation. starting saturday at jfk airport and next week at newark, chicago, washington and atlanta, authorities will take the temperature and ask questions of passengers coming in from three west african nations. officials and passengers are both hoping these airport screenings will reduce on board confusion, brian. >> hallie jackson in our l.a. bureau tonight. hallie, thanks.

this weekend is expected feared to perhaps be a tense one in ferguson, missouri. a number of protests are planned as the community marks two months now since 18-year-old michael brown was shot and killed by a police officer there. now parents of another 18-year-old killed in the area just this week are speaking out and pointing fingers at police. nbc's ron allen has the story. >> he was respectful. he was my baby. >> reporter: consumed with grief, lost their only son, they identified him on the store surveillance tape minutes before an encounter with an off-duty st. louis metro police officer. >> the same people who supposed to protect and serve, they're taking our lives with no explanation. >> reporter: police say there was a chase, an altercation, but myers fired first. a handgun and evidence of gunshots by myers. claims he was not carrying a

gun, nor wearing a sweatshirt, as police have said. >> you can plainly see he was not armed. his pants was almost hanging off his whole body. >> reporter: myers' death and demands for justice for michael brown ignited a second night of protest and some violence. police have kept their distance, say they made at least eight arrests. >> especially with the incidents from yesterday, it's just not getting better. >> reporter: but with each passing day many residents are running out of patients. some heard on talk radio. >> anarchists is what i would call them. >> marauding and keeping neighborhoods up at night i can't do. i can't abide by. >> reporter: now the myers who say they've marched to support the family of michael brown say they want justice too. >> and it hurts so bad because you can say all these horrible things about my son, but i don't know anything about the man who took his life. >> reporter: should also point out myers was free on bail and facing a weapons possession charge when he was killed. we reached out to the st. louis

police on numerous occasions to respond directly to the family's concerns and so far we've not received an answer. brian. >> ron allen in clayton, missouri tonight. ron, thanks. the ceo of microsoft is tonight embarking on a campaign to save his reputation after something he said that he would probably like to have back. at the center of it his controversial comments about women in the workplace and about what women get paid. and he picked perhaps the worst possible venue to make them, a women's technology conference. our report tonight from nbc's ann thompson. >> reporter: you have to wonder what was microsoft ceo saty satya nadella thinking. >> it's not really about asking for the raise, but it's knowing and having faith that the system will actually give you the right raises as you go along. >> reporter: that was his advice to women who are uncomfortable asking for raises. then he added this. >> and that, i think, might be one of the additional superpowers that quite frankly

women who don't ask for a raise have. because that's good karma. >> reporter: instant karma slammed nadella online. laura rogers calling his comments absolutely discriminatory. karma doesn't pay the bill. in new york the outrage crosses gender lines. >> we're in a generation where we are actively trying to, you know, promote equality at the workplace. >> it's somewhat condescending and almost discriminatory? >> yes, i believe so. and i believe he should learn to keep his mouth shut. >> it felt like shades of 1950s. >> reporter: msnbc's wrote a book about how women can get what they're worth. >> it's completely backwards. it is so unbelievable that a ceo in this day and age would tell will, pat them on the head and tell them to behave. >> reporter: it's not just behavior but pay. in 2013 the median salary for professional women was almost $400 a week less than for

professional men. financial expert suze orman suggests to do the opposite. >> powerlessness has never attracted money. and it never will. superpower is when you ask for what you are worth and you get it. >> reporter: nadella tried to mend fences tweeting he'd been inarticulate. then in an e-mail he said he answered the question completely wrong. adding if you think you deserve a raise, you should just ask. in other words, do what most men would. ann thompson, nbc news, new york. microsoft stock was among the losers today at the end of a tough week on wall street. the dow off 115, nasdaq dropped 102, s&p down 22. and just days after the high for the year this week now becomes the worst week for the market in nearly two and a half years. the mystery deepens tonight over just what is going on with kim jong-un, the young leader of north korea who hasn't been seen

in public now for five weeks. and today his absence was especially conspicuous. we hear from our chief foreign correspondent richard engel. >> reporter: today was a big holiday in north korea, the 69th anniversary of the workers party. the state's only party. north korea's young leader reportedly sent flowers to the event, but he didn't show. he remains kim jong-un-seen. last appearing publicly more than a month ago, overweight, limping. north korean officials said he suffered from unspecified discomfort. but is there more afoot? it's unusual for kim to skip these events so often used to showcase and consolidate power, as we saw in 2012 soon after he took office. there's no social media in north korea, only the elite have access to the internet. but there's plenty of speculation elsewhere. has there been a coup? is kim's younger sister now in

charge? is this a loyalty test to see if dissenters raise their heads? u.s. officials tell nbc news they don't think there's been a coup, but that kim who is overweight, smokes and drinks heavily is suffering from a non-life threatening ailment, like gout, and is recovering in private, out of sight in the hermit kingdom. richard engel, nbc news. in japan tonight they are bracing for impact. the most powerful storm we have seen produced anywhere on the planet so far this year is heading for that country. it's called typhoon von fong. winds topping 150 miles per hour. this is what it looked like from the international space station on an overpass. it is a sprawling monster. u.s. facilities and personnel in okinawa are on alert and taken precautions. it would be a crowning achievement at any age, but for a 17-year-old to win the nobel peace prize, that was completely

unheard of that is until today. malala yousafzia who at age 14 was nearly assassinated by the taliban for the crime of wanting to go to school to learn just made history on the world stage. and we get our report tonight from nbc's keir simmons. >> reporter: acknowledging her award today, malala yousafzia had to stand on a box. >> the podium is usually taller than me. >> reporter: at 17 she's the youngest nobel winner in history. >> this award is for all those children who are voiceless, whose voices need to be heard. >> reporter: it's remarkable she's here at all. two years ago this week malala was shot in the head by the taliban simply for advocating a girl's right to an education. but she survived. the taliban failed to silence her. >> when you are speaking for truth, and when you are speaking for justice, no one can defeat you. >> reporter: her ordeal gave her a global platform. and she used it.

>> the terrorists thought they would stop my ambition, but nothing changed in my life except this. weakness, fear and hopelessness died. >> reporter: when the news came today, malala was in school here in birmingham in chemistry class. a teacher told her she had won. then she returned to her studies. awarded with malala today, kailash satyarthi has helped tens of thousands around the world. >> it's not just an honor for me. it's honor for all those fighting. >> reporter: a muslim and a hindu, a pakistani and an indian, united today in one cause. >> one child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world. >> reporter: keir simmons, nbc news, birmingham, england.

[ male announcer ] how did edward jones become one of the biggest financial services companies in the country? hey. yours? not anymore. come on in. [ male announcer ] by meeting you more than halfway. it's how edward jones makes sense of investing. even with these scares over ebola and the enterovirus, as we head into flu season remember this, three children have already died from the flu in

this country. and some are having problems getting the vaccine. we get more on all of it tonight from nbc's tom costello. >> reporter: in denver this morning health care workers were getting their flu shots, but nationwide vaccine supplies are running low just as the peak vaccination season kicks in. not good timing say pediatricians. >> it makes us concerned as doctors, as pediatricians. we want to protect our patients, and, you know, the timing of it is important. you ready to have your flu vaccine? >> reporter: there's plenty of the nasal mist and it provides plenty of protection. she wanted her older kids to have it. >> especially because we have the baby at home. we don't want to expose the baby to the flu. >> reporter: but the mist is not recommended for the very young or people with asthma. the shortage of the injectable vaccine is blamed on a manufacturing delay, but the cdc says it's temporary and there should be plenty by halloween.

each year some 200,000 people are diagnosed with the flu and depending on the severity of the flu season, tens of thousands can die. the flu most often spreads when someone who's infected sneezes or coughs. those tiny droplets fly through the air, inhaled by others or land on hard surfaces like deskto desktops, keyboards where they can live up to eight hours. kids and adults 65 and older are most vulnerable. >> if you already have a chronic lung condition, you have asthma, you're still at risk for catching this. >> reporter: even if you have to wait a few weeks, doctors say the flu vaccine is always better late than never. tom costello, nbc news, washington. when we come back, trying to figure out what it was that just fell from the sky. two medium cappuccinos! let's show 'em what a breakfast with whole grain fiber can do. one coffee with room, one large mocha latte, medium macchiato, a light hot chocolate hold the whip, two espressos. make one a double. she's full and focused.
