From New York, the greatest city in the world, and where the host has always been a bridesmaid and never a bride, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! After the rain and gloom of yesterday, Brandon's in the chair once again to get you caught up to speed on the news of the day.
Some stories talked about on today's show were:
1. A New York City mayoral candidate says he's "shocked" that so little attention has been paid to his arrest for trying to hijack an airliner at gunpoint 17 years ago.
2. A New York City mail carrier who admitted to carrying out hundreds of pounds of cocaine deliveries for a drug-trafficking ring has been sentenced to five years in prison.
3. New York City's Republican candidate for mayor, Nicole Malliotakis, is campaigning on a broken foot after tripping over her chihuahua, Peanut.
