email. i would imagine i've thought more about what happened than all of you put together. i've lost more sleep than all of you put together. >> there is no doubt in my mind that we did the best we could with the information that we had at the time. >> you said from the beginning we want the truth, the whole truth, and nothing, but the truth, why don't we put the entire transcript out there and let the world see it? what do you have to hide? >> that last exchange referenced a witness interview transcript for sydney blumenthal. a close confidant of clinton's who emailed her about libya. when the committee returned from the first break it voted not to release that transcript. we have seen a beautiful day out on our thursday and plenty of sunshine with temperatures that are well above average and the average high temperature today is 67 degrees and take a look at these numbers across the

i got to the end and i had to crawl over the entryway to make sure i didn't fall, obviously. >> how did that leave you feeling? >> it's humiliating. >> reporter: mr. neil says a united flight manager called me yesterday. >> they are pending an internal investigation into the accommodations of the airport, and they're also compensating me for travel. >> reporter: today united issued this statement to news 4. united is committed to providing convenient and comfortable service to all of our customers. we regret the delay in providing the aisle chair to assist mr. neal in exiting the aircraft, but we are pleased to hear that he is satisfied with our response to his concerns. >> what's important is that they reached out. i was not expecting it. so his call came as a complete surprise. >> just ahead we'll hear from a national advocacy group for people with disabilities has to say about travel problems like the one darcy neal just shared with us today.

>> since being injured and benched during preseason we haven't heard a whole lot from rg3. >> jason pugh is here to explain why. >> an odd situation for everyone involved. the redskins, griffin, the media and now the fans. despite the fact that robert

griffin iii is the third-string quarterback on this roster fans want to know how he feels about the current situation that he's in. does he want to play for this team? does he want to be traded? we don't know these answers because robert has only been allowed to talk to the media once during the season and that session lasted less than a minute because it was cut off by the pr staff. i reached out to the staff on several different occasions to interview griffin one-on-one or for him to do a group media session and all of those requests have been denied. because griffin is a member of the 53-man roster the media is allowed to interview him during the open locker room session throughout the week and that access to griffin has been denied by the organization. the minimum 45-minute daily interview time on four days of the practice week will be set at the club's discretion, but it should occur when the players are available and free of other club commitments. it is the club's responsibility to deliver access of all players

during this time period and each player's responsibility too too cooperate. i reached out to the pr staff for a statement and he said our focus is beating the tampa bay buccaneers this week.g1xñ >> that's an important game. >> it is. it really is important. kirk cousins might not survive after this week if he doesn't get the win. >> thanks, jason. now your storm team 4 forecast. >> and a beautiful forecast that it is. jason talking football and how about some baseball? still in baseball season. this is montgomery high school and there is the baseball field and we've got the guys on the field hoping for a good season and look at the color in the background and this is from our live camera and you want to see some great color? how about this, guys? take a look at this, a buck out there doing a morning swim out there. same buck, this is earlier this morning going into the sunrise. this is from a fisherman named al thanks for sending inned

the south and that's exactly where we are and 83 in st. louis, but the other side of the front and 61 in chicago and 62 in pittsburgh and that's the kind of air that we have coming into the day and it will be cooler and colder. the cold air that we saw last weekend we will not see again for a while. >> low temperatures tonight, cool, and above average. 52 manassas and 54 down toward fredericksburg and high temperatures tomorrow only in the low to mid-60s and 66 in manassas and 67 in fredericksburg. we'll see sunshine, but it will be on the breezy side, too and that will make it feel cooler and as long as you have a jacket you'll be a-okay. now the temperatures in the next couple of days about the same in the low to mid-60s and saturday a high temperature of 65 and notice the low and that's 47 for an overnight low and most of you in the suburbs will be in the upper 30s and saturday morning will be a cool morning and sunday, high temperature of 66

and notice a chance of showers and that coincides with the marine corps marathon and the good news as the cold front comes through and we will see the chance of showers and the big umbrella and the small umbrella and occasional showers and most of us will stay on the dry side and maybe it will take the pod show out there, too and know that you're running into a little bit of light rain and by monday, temperatures are cooler and most of you in the upper 50s. v.j. has the rest of the seven-day forecast at 5:45. now at 5:00, his face is washington's best-kept secret. it's food critic who comes out with the best fall picks in his dining guide. >> she was a woman in her 90s that could still do splits. learn how a family lost their matriarch. i'm tom sherwood in the district outside of the metro station. despite the metro emergency problems your cell phone has a 25% chance of working if you

metro train is a little more than 25%. >> the report comes on the heels of a series of train emergencies as news 4's tom sherwood shows us now, metro is trying to dramatically improve its communications. >> reporter: deadly incidents or just scares when there's smoke on the train tracks, metro has a confidence problem with its passengers. >> don't get me started to metro. we were just talking about metro flaws. >> they care more about getting the money and don't care if people live or die on there. >> reporter: in a meeting on safety improvements, officials told a metro board that emergency communication for first responders is better than earlier this year, over 90%. estimates of improving 911 service over five years is too long. >> they get it done quicker and it's five years to get cell service implemented in the tunnels is frankly, unacceptable. >> worry is that 27% of 911 calls from passengers get through because of audio blind

spots and inefficient equipment. that means nearly 75% of 911 calls on trains may not go through. >> that system is old and it has probably degenerated in its quality and its efficiency. >> the metro board is struggling with this even while it searches for a new general manager. >> a lot more progress made in the last few months. >> one new board member expressed the frustration of many. all we do is provide lip service and we get report after report and now it's time for us to start taking steps to improve it, and a new general manager will not be a panacea. >> metro has been searching for a new general manager since january and hopes to have someone in the next few weeks. >> thank you, tom. get your takata air bag fixed asap or risk dying. strong words tonight from u.s.

safety regulators. consumer reporter erika gonzalez with new information on this massive recall. jim? >> more than 19 million cars have the defective air bags and the recall could include more. that is a word of caution by officials with the nhtsa higher-ups say that's not good enough. the danger with these air bags is they can explode so forcefully they spray shrapnel. eight people have died as a result and nearly 100 have been injured. in order to replace the repair process it's contemplating letting repair shops do some of the work because it's just the dealerships. nhtsa is considering hiring someone to deal with manufacturers. wendy, back to you. >> thank you, erika. >> a gun show this weekend in

prince george's county will go on as planned and 2,000 people are expected to attend the gun show at the show place arena in upper marlboro. the washington post reports that because gun shows are not illegal, the arena has to allow it. the arena hosted the gun shows annually until 2013 after the mass shooting at the elementary school in newtown, connecticut. fbi data suggests gun sales are on the rise and in parts of virginia more people are not just buying guns, they're taking safety classes. they're seeing a huge increase in enrollment and it will expand into roanoke where demand for these classes is high after the murder of television reporter and cameraman on live television this summer. it's really been official and it teaches you what your laws are, how to, you know, properly carry a gun. properly store a gun, clean a gun, what the laws in your state

specific steps were taken after these allegations. zander faber's son was the one he says was hit and the investigation was not transparent. >> we actually moved our children out of that school because we could not feel safe sending them there. we felt betrayed by this, and you don't give your children to people you don't trust. >> the teacher is now working at another district and a spokesperson declined to comment calling it a legal matter. nbc 4 is in your school community, supporting an important campaign in prince william county. be kind is a pledge to create a culture of kindness in local schools. students in grand park middle got that message from news 4 anchor angie goff. nbc 4 is a proud partner with prince william county schools and apple federal credit union in the campaign. wendy and i just took our pics and we'll be posting them on our facebook page. >> four people credited with saving some of the world's most
