"John Aaron. And I'm Michelle bash, a familiar slasher is back in theaters, screams 6 is here. Hello. Let's play a game. You know you're like the tenth guy to try this, right? It never works out for the dip in the mask. And we ask who you pee of nerds rule the world just how is this franchise still going? John Michelle, do you like scary movies? Well, I certainly do. And yes, it is still going since 1996 when we got the first scream film. And then last year, when we had scream part 5, but they just titled its scream. Yes, it's still going. And I would recommend if you haven't seen scream 5, you need to see that one to see scream 6. And then maybe see scream one, the original film that we got way back in 1996. However, if you really want to enjoy this film, see scream one through 5. But if you are stressed for time, see scream 5 that came out last year, AKA just scream and scream one. But yes, there are still trekking along. It is a fun slasher movie. Definitely a movie you want to see in the theater because with horror movies, you kind of get that vibe in that intensity with an audience that are reacting to what we're seeing on the screen. Again, it's beautiful people making some bad choices, getting chopped up, but it's a lot of fun. I really enjoy this cast. We have returning faves and Courtney Cox and Hayden Panettiere coming back to this. I would also say with looking back at some of the old films, maybe catch scream four because that's where we get Hayden into the franchise. And as you know, Courtney's been with this franchise since the first set of films. But I really had a lot of fun catching this with my friends. Yeah, but it sounds like you just gave us a bunch of homework. I did give you homework, but let me stress. If you are stressed for time, C scream 5 AKA scream that dropped last year, and then revisit, if you have another bit of time to see the original screen that dropped in 1996. So what happens in this one? In this screen, we have the survivors coming out of scream 5 AKA scream last year. They are now in New York, taking it to a whole nother city. It's kind of sleepy in New York City. I kid, I kid. Not like the small town that it was in the last film. Here we in New York, and it's bigger things. It's better kills, if you will, and just a wider arena for ghostface to go to town on our victims. So see scream one, which is called scream, scream 5, which is called scream. Yes. Then scream 6, just block off Saturday, I guess. On Skype, that's cool you pee of nerds rule the world, which previews the latest in film TV and streaming

The Senate today takes up a resolution to stop a D.C. law that overhauls its criminal code from taking effect.

My advice would be to join a community that knows what you're going through. Gigi Barnett, WTO news. We all know regular exercise can help you live longer. But now there's evidence that the time of day you actually work out makes a difference. Getting a regular workout in during the afternoon hours might reduce your risk of premature death more than morning or evening workouts. And a new large scale study which tracked the mortality rates of 92,000 men and women in the UK found that people who exercised between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. were less likely to die prematurely from heart disease or other causes except cancer than those who exercised earlier or later. Another study out of Stockholm, though, found that morning exercise was better at targeting body fat. Either way, the message is, keep moving. Sandy cosell, WTO news. Drugs typically used to treat diabetes such as ozempic are becoming harder to find for people who need them most. That's because that's because of a side effect that's attracting other people.

"Good evening, I'm Michelle bash. Our top story is new tonight, the teen involved in the frightening beltway sniper killings that took place 20 years ago has won an appeal over his sentence for 6 murders in Montgomery county. The Maryland appeals court ruled Lee Boyd Malvo's sentence of multiple life terms without the possibility of parole may violate his Eighth Amendment constitutional right. That's because laws have changed in the 20 years since he was sentenced to say a juvenile can't be given life without parole unless the court rules he's incapable of remorse or rehabilitation, since the sentencing judge didn't say that in the ruling, the appeals court decided malvo should be re sentenced. They had no opinion on what the sentence should be. In the grand scheme of things, a new sentence may not make any difference. Malvo is already serving multiple life terms in Virginia for sniper killings there. Michelle Morello, WTO news.

"Men are more likely to catch the disease than white men. Are Michelle bash went deeper with Politico reporter, Chris demar. The CDC came out with some new data about this. There were early indications in the national data that monkeypox was disproportionately affecting communities of color. Nearly 28% of monkeypox cases in the U.S. are among black individuals and 33% are among Hispanic people. And that's really well and above this proportionate above those communities population in the U.S. Another thing about that date that's important is that the numbers are incomplete. The CDC only has reason ethnicity data for about 6000 cases. And there are over 14,000 confirmed cases right now. And that's because a lot of states just don't report that data to the federal government. So we don't know the full picture of what things look like. But when you drill down to the local level, it actually looks even a bit worse than that. Are there concerns that not enough is being done to reach out to these populations? We spoke to a lot of different advocates that are health advocates and LGBTQ+ advocates in different parts of the country. And the consensus was they are concerned that health officials are aware of the data that they're missing the communities themselves. They're frustrated because this comes on the heels of COVID, in which we saw these disparities really laid bare in the early phase of the pandemic. And so in some ways, we should be starting ahead of where we were at that point and policymakers have greater awareness of the systemic disparities in our healthcare system that make people more vulnerable when outbreaks happen. And yet there is a lot of frustration that there hasn't been outreach that has kind of really been made available to people on the ground in some of the most effective areas. That's Politico reporter Krista marr. The Pentagon has published its first ever policy on how military public affairs offices should use their official social media accounts.
