From New York, the greatest city in the world, and also based on a true story, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! The road to Christmas is almost done, and so is the 11am show. We'll be moving to our old slot (11:30AM) starting in January!
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. A New York-based organization dedicated to the safety of journalists says the number killed worldwide in retaliation for their work nearly doubled in 2018. The organization says 34 journalists were killed in retaliation for their work as of Dec. 14, while at least 53 were killed overall.
2. Prada is no longer selling a line of accessories and displays following complaints that they featured blackface-style imagery.
3. The death of a Philadelphia woman who received a buttocks-enhancement procedure in New York City has been ruled a homicide. The New York City Chief Medical Examiner has determined 48-year-old Lesbia Ayala died after receiving silicone injections in her buttocks and thighs.
