00:04:38,240 in 2022. 54 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,960 Remarkably, she achieved this in just her 31st game, compared to Howard's 34th. 55 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,680 Clark, playing for the Indiana Fever, now leads the league in three-pointers made, tied 56 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:54,480 with Minnesota's Kayla McBride at 87. 57 00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,080 Despite a lower shooting percentage, Clark has been pivotal, leading the Fever to a 3-1 58 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,600 record since the Olympic break. 59 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:11,760 In local sports, the Padres on the road lost to the

accounting but faced skepticism 64 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,920 from his parents. 65 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:41,640 The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants reports that about 65,000 students 66 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:49,520 completed accounting degrees in the 2021 to 2022 school year, an 18 percent drop from 67 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,980 a decade earlier. 68 00:05:51,980 --> 00:05:56,900 The shortage is causing financial discrepancies in corporate America. 69 00:05:56,900 --> 00:06:02,560 To attract more accountants, experts suggest increasing pay, making the curriculum exciting 70 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,440 and easing certification requirements. 71 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:13,240 In business news, as the presidential election nears, several key bankruptcy policy issues 72 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,400 are coming to the forefront. 73 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:22,920 Congress, along with a new administration, will tackle matters related to insolvency. 74

bankruptcy. 78 00:06:42,260 --> 00:06:48,320 The Texas two-step tactic, used by companies like Johnson & Johnson, remains controversial, 79 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,920 while venue shopping for favorable bankruptcy courts persists. 80 00:06:52,920 --> 00:07:01,040 The expired $7,500,000 threshold for small business bankruptcy filings also awaits legislative 81 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,640 action. 82 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:08,920 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $59,200. 83 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,600 Ethereum is just over $2,500. 84 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:18,280 And Solana

00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:21,800 liable for recommending a blackout challenge video to a girl who died, raising questions 99 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:28,720 about Section 230, a law granting social media companies legal immunity. 100 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:34,160 The Philadelphia-based court revived a lawsuit against TikTok over the death of 10-year-old 101 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:41,520 Naila Anderson, stating TikTok could be responsible due to its editorial judgment. 102 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:47,400 Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act offers broad protections to tech companies, 103 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,360 but politicians argue it gives them too much power. 104 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:56,120 The Anderson family hopes this ruling will prevent future tragedies. 105 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,840 Entertainment news. 106 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:07,520 Apple's upcoming film, Waltz, directed by John Wise and starring Brad Pitt and George 107 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,560 Clooney, has seen a significant shift in its release strategy. 108 00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:18,400 Initially promised a robust theatrical release, Waltz will now have a limited one-week run 109 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:25,080 in theaters before streaming on Apple TV+, starting September 27. 110 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:30,920 Despite this pivot, Waltz emphasizes that Waltz was created for the big screen, showcasing 111 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,800 his expertise from revitalizing the Spider-Man series. 112 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:41,440 The film follows two fixers, played by Clooney and Pitt, tackling a fallout from a hookup, 113 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:47,400 gone wrong, and features stand-up performances from Amy Ryan and Austin Abrams. 114 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:53,440 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 115 00:09:53,440 --> 00:10:00,320 And today, our quote comes from the American actor and filmmaker, George Clooney. 116 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,320 And he said, 117 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:06,480 I'm kind of comfortable with getting older because it's better than the other option, 118 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,800 which is being dead. 119 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,400 So I'll take getting older. 120 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,960 And that's a wrap for this morning. 121 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:20,840 You can check out our Instagram,
