From New York, the greatest city in the world, and where all your Christmases are white, it's The update with Brandon Julien! The news world is a crazy place where anything and everything could possibly happen. And today's show is just another reason why.
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. A person of interest is being questioned in connection with the stabbing of a nurse outside a hospital in Newark. Law enforcement sources tell WABC the person talking with police matches the description of the attacker involved in Sunday's incident in a parking lot outside Newark's University Hospital.
2. Natalie Morales says was shocked when she woke up Wednesday to learn that her former "Today" show co-anchor Matt Lauer had been fired.
3. A Turkish-Iranian gold trader says he overcame a banker's fears he was too popular in Turkey to launder Iranian money by paying over $50 million in bribes to Turkey's finance minister.
