new york governor, andrew cuomo, announced a ban on new york dining -- on indoor dining in new york city starting monday along with other restrictions. some congressional democrats also joined the briefing virtually to call for congress to pass additional coronavirus relief aid. gov. cuomo: good morning. thank you all for being here today. the former secretary to governor paterson is back and helping us with the hospital surge in flex plan and the vaccination plan, which are major operations, as you know. commissioner zucker to my left, the secretary to the governor to our left, robert made -- robert meade. i'm going to speak quickly today, number one, i'm from new york, and we have some special guests were joining us. we want to be on time for them. 286. is day we are doing through covert operations at the same time. number one, managing hospital capacity and surge influx. number two, trying to slow the spread of the virus, and number three, being as aggressive as we can on vaccinations. we want to be the most efficient and most effective state in the u.s. in terms of vaccinations. as w

it was perceived as a new york phenomenon. get out of new york. new york is where covid is. and i think that hurt new york. i know it hurt new york. plus, the federal war on new york, salt, etc. but covid and the apparent connection between new york and covid hurt new york. and it was untrue, and we see that now. as a matter of fact, one of the safest states in the nation for covid, new york. literally, one of the three safest states is new york. a higher infection rate in florida. higher infection rate, north carolina. higher infection rate, texas, california. so that is the truth. it had nothing to do with new york. by the way, new yorkers were smarter than almost any other state in dealing with it. that is the truth. the expression the truth will , out. the truth has outed. what was the other part of the question? oh, i didn't want to mention this because i knew you would ask a follow-up or someone would and i'm going to do it in the state of the state. here is the conundrum. not the conundrum. here's the challenge. you have an economy that is basically shut down. you are

[narrator] new york city.ng] [woman] happy new year! at the dawn of the 80s it was exploding with opportunity. [newsreader] boom times. that's what the numbers signal today, an economy that's on a roll in this country. a place to seek money, power, fame. amid the glitz and greed, five titans seized their moment... and by 1983, some were crossings lines that couldn't be uncrossed. a mysterious trader had convinced the market he was a magician, when in reality he was just a cheater. [man 2] boesky was blatantly violating the law with insider trading. a poor girl from brooklyn had become the queen of hospitality but her fairy tale would soon take a very dark turn. [woman 2] she has become fortuitously cruel. leona helmsley forgot the most important lesson, which is you should keep your friends close and you keep your enemies closer. a real estate showman had won his nasty battle with the city and was preparing to make his biggest gamble yet. [donald trump] yes! [newsreader] donald trump has also ventured into gambling. [charles bagli] wall

back to new york city right now. i want to take you to times square where restaurant owners and a lot of their workers are rallying. let's dip into this a little bit. >> we're asking government to help us. we're asking the new president to support us. thank you. >> thank you. [cheering] neil: continue to follow this right now. what they are angry about, understandably, they have been forced to shut down indoor dining. now the caveat here is that they're told it might not last too long but we just got word today from the new york city mayor and new york governor that more sweeping restrictions could be coming, outright shutdown, akin to what we had in the spring of this pandemic year which would just doom all of these guys right now who are hoping that there is a chance they can reopen. keep in mind they are allowing, you know, delivery and outdoor dining but as you just said the city is preparing for a blizzard tomorrow, anywhere from 18 inches to two feet of snow expected in the new york area. so i doubt people will

a film that brought harsh controversy to new york. but our story also has to do with a quiet street in connecticut where a young man, a minister for jehovah's witnesses, went from door to door with a phonograph record, which he played for anyone who cared to listen. that phonograph record too caused controversy. two disputes, each of which went to the united states supreme court, and there these cases of the film and the phonograph record became a chapter in the history of the united states constitution. each an interpretation affecting many people. a crucial decision. ♪ ♪ >> in 1921, new york state adopted a system of film censorship. henceforth, before a film could be shown in a state for anything other than amusement charging admission, it would have to have the state's approval. during the next 36 years, the state's reviewers in new york city examined almost 50,000 films. most were promptly approved. in some cases, the board asked for cuts. a few films were banned outright. for such cases the law provided an appeal procedure t

will they be the first wave in new york city? mayor de blasio: we have been saying this for weeks and weeks -- let me flip the equation. where else would you go but where the need is greatest? of course when it comes to going out to the grassroots, we are going to go to the places that suffered the most and are still the most vulnerable. absolutely. reporter: good morning, mr. mayor, and happy new year. mayor de blasio: happy new year. how are you doing today? reporter: i am good. how are you? mayor de blasio: could not be better. reporter: on a personal note, i know you said the new year's resolution was going to be to get those million vaccines. but on a personal note, do you have any resolutions? mayor de blasio: all i can tell you is i want to make 2021 an amazing year in new york city. i have so much energy right now. i'm going to burn my way to the finish line this year. on december 31, 2021, we are going to look back and say we did amazing things in new york city. we turned the tide. we started the recovery. we reached peo

why shouldn't that apply to the new york licensing laws? narrator: the case of burstyn versus wilson, education commissioner for new york state, reached the supreme court in 1952. on april 24 came the oral argument, then a month of silence. finally, on may 26, 1952, came the court's decision, a unanimous decision read by justice clark. he said, "it cannot be doubted that expression by means of motion pictures is included in the free speech and free press guarantee of the first and 14th amendments. it does not follow that the constitution requires absolute freedom to exhibit every motion picture of every kind at all times and all places. each method of expression tends to present its own peculiar problems. the statute involved here requires that permission to communicate ideas be obtained in advance from state officials. a major purpose of the first amendment guarantee of a free press was to prevent prior restraint. the state has a heavy burden to demonstrate that the limitation challenged here presents an exceptional case. in seeking to app

with me now, two new york city restauranteurs and new york city councilman, joe barelli. sean, i'll start with you. the governor shutting down indoor dining once again in the middle of december, when it's starting to get really cold outside. what is this going to do to your business? >> effectively now we'll have to close because with the weather forecast this week and there's a nor'easter promised, it's just not sustainable to expect people to sit outside. we just have no option but the to close again. carley: that is so sad again. tyler, before the governor shut down indoor dining, restaurants were only allowed to serve inside at 25% capacity. describe what that looked like in your restaurant. that doesn't sound like an environment where people would be climbing all over each other, which would lead to an increase in spread. >> no, let's be clear. inside dining at 25% capacity was well-spaced, adequate tables, responsible adults wearing masks, washing hands and being respectful of each other's space. what we have created here is a safe environment now with personal heat

he was a new yorker, he was spending his time in new york. had he ended up with serious musicians he might've developed into something extra but the possibilities perhaps would've been enormous. john lennon still haunts my life, i now live just four blocks north of the dakota apartment building, and go past it virtually every day. and whenever i go to my gym down on 63rd st, it's part of a complex that also houses a hotel, the very hotel where lennon's killer stayed on his first night in new york. i've been giving a lot of thought tojohn lennon and what he means to people like myself, and is millions of fans around the worlds on this 40th anniversary. he remains a hugely talented musician and many people's eyes he remains a hugely talented musician in many people's eyes and a great iconic figure in the history of 20th century pop culture. he is a true british original, and authentic voice, he certainly isn't a fake. to millions of people, he is still very much part of their lives. as yoko ono puts it, "his spirit still lives on." "you cannot

kathy, there is snow in new york. it is not going to work outdoors today, not going to work indoors either. business,does small how badly do local and state need this fiscal stimulus? >> we definitely need it. i have been saying this for months governor cuomo has been saying this for months. governor cuomo leads the national governors association, a bipartisan group. every one of them, republicans and democrats, avenue been clamoring for help from commerce -- from congress to give to state and local government and businesses.small i was in the city yesterday, day before, and i sat down with restaurant owners, and they are literally starving. we have to help them. the federal government could right now help with a stimulus plan. it does not help the state and local governments, which is pathetic. we are in trouble, but at least get some money to the small businesses. tom: right now, the reporting is state and local aid will not be in this bill. i guess it is going to get done. you know the timeline, as well. what is yo

now staffers run the new york times. the fact that the editors were allowing the staffers to attack the only fellow staffer who is willing to give a hearing to points of view that were outside the wild leftism of the new york times is pretty incredible. the new york times basically handed over editorship and she rules the roost over there. it's not a piece of journalism it's a piece of pseudo- history designed to paint them in the worst picture. they're tearing down statues of the founders, suggesting that ulysses s grant is a bad guy and she tweeted back that she was proud of that which kind of gives the game away. walter was the bad guy but he still had his pulitzer and not much has changed when it comes to the narrative. >> as a matter of fact, if the new york times and others were to apply their own standard to the new york times as michael goodwin pointed out in the new york post this past week, it has a very strong history of racism and strong history connection to slavery. we would have to burn down the new york t

new york city public schools are the safest places to be in new york city. i'm confident we can and should keep them open. >> a lot of people question why have there been so many strict lockdowns. >> have to give the guy credit. i heard todd snickering early but you got to give the mayor credit. there's a lot of pressure on him from the teachers union to go back in lockdown schools again and he's not doing that but we are involved in this lawsuit, still fighting the lawsuit and have to take the progress and safety we saw with middle and elementary schools and start opening up middle schools and high schools. >> thank you for joining us as always, covering a lot of ground, happy new year. >> joe side with the mayor is like me becoming an eagles fan. 47 after the hour. if there was ever a year to drink away this one is probably it. as you gather to celebrate tonight we have hangover helpers for tomorrow. chef and culinary nutritionist next. ♪ celebrate come on ♪ it's moving day. and while her friends are doing the heavy lifting, jess is busy moving her xfi

" "the new york herald," and "the new york tribune." and they each kind of represent different demographics. some of this may even sound familiar to you. violently papers is against the president and is kind of considered, like, of the people. some accuse it of being of the mob. it is the mob's voice or something. the other one, "the new york times" has a reputation of in new york and europe. the editor of that paper is a huge supporter of lincoln by this time. he was working on this major book about him. he was only slowed down because somebody had published abraham lincoln's jokes just before this. so he had to wait to publish his. so it did not crowd the market. the other one was a paper that was very much an abolitionist paper, and in fact, more strongly that way then abraham lincoln himself. they were constantly saying, "it's time for you for take a stronger stand about slavery." so what would happen is, the papers would go out and the newboys would flood them through the streets of new york, and they would go off on trains across

new york. [no audio] today we are doing two covert operations at the same time. number one, managing hospital capacity and surge influx. number two, trying to slow the spread of the virus, and number three being as aggressive as we can on vaccinations. we want to be the most efficient and most effective estate in the u.s. in terms of vaccinations. we would have -- we will have the new york state panel review the actions and recommendations of the fda to give new yorkers more confidence in the vaccination process. met with the new york state panel yesterday -- last night and the clinical advisory task force. they approved the fda incision to go forward with the vaccine -- the fda decision to go forward with the vaccine. we notified the fda of that. there was no delay in the timing and new yorkers will have more confidence. we are talking about a winter plan now. when you are talking about a winter plan, you have to take the whole context into consideration. where we have been, where we are going

white's look about new york called here's new york. it's the best book ever written about the city and she talks about how new york had loneliness for those who desire privacy. he doesn't say solitude. he doesn't say aloneness. he uses loneliness and it has always struck me, stuck with me and it's just a really excellent look about new york and what it's like in the cities that you and i have gone over and wanted to see you do well and survive and come back. >> i love your image this is a whole new layer and there will be a new new york and it will be different. the elements of new york we each fell in love with. but it will be a new city. >> it will be a new city. >> any more questions? i think we are coming to the end of the hour. >> oh okay here's one you mentioned your book from william goldstein. insomniac city and also wrote a book called sleepiness. how have you've been sleeping in the pandemic? do you have pandemic dreams? >> i had a dream once light and anxiety dream about not having a nap. >> many people i know have that too

because he is counting on chuck schumer to be the majority leader and becameout new york and new york city. >> well, he should get in line. a whole bunch of the democrats are anticipating and hoping that democrats win in georgia for that very same reason. you don't think the governor of california is praying that the democrats win? because he wants more money from washington, d.c. and he knows that if the senate is in control of the democrats, and the house, and biden is president, the money will flow. that is what they are counting on. >> can i just add -- >> jason: go ahead. >> one other point. it's simple. bill de blasio who is the worst mayor in the country is now looking toward georgia in order to salvage his budget. why should people in georgia throughout this country basically subsidize democratic mayors, democratic governors who allow the cities to burn all summer long? it's ridiculous. we cannot lose georgia to the democrats. one final point, happy birthday matt schlapp. [laughter] >> jason: yeah. thank you for that. real quickly, we have less than a minute here. i want to as

so the process is continuing in new york state now in albany, new york, capital of new york. saw the governor and former president bill clinton and hillary clinton, residents of new york. two of the 29 electors in new york. david, explain to viewers what we're seeing now. this is one state, a large state, new york. but will unfold in 49 other states and district of columbia. >> yeah. remember, these electors are casting a ballot both for president and vice president so you just saw bill clinton, hillary clinton, governor cuomo cast a ballot for joe biden, one of 29 new york has to offer, another for kamala harris for the vice president-elect. they each calltally up. and what happens is that they have to sign some six certificates that get delivered to various officials, judges, secretaries of state, election officers, but most importantly one of the sets of certificates that these votes will get delivered to is vice president mike pence who as president in the senate in january will oversee the process of opening the envelopes being sent from all the state capitols, in joint

"the new york times". go. then shapiro outstanding book, how to destroy america in three easy steps. you cannot be more timely. my question to you was reality versus ideology. how are these soft marxist, progressive, one-party rule cities how are they doing when it comes to individual liberty and choice inequality and one creation that magnificent paradise that they keep talking about. >> they are doing horribly. the fact is when the disintegration take over an area it isn't about building anything new. in fact, the failure is the goal. you want things to fail because any success is going to be educated to the broader american system and the broader american system is bad so what you actually want is more on success. want people who aren't getting jobs and want more inequality and if markham occurs that's a good case to be made that the entire system is to blame. it's of beautiful thing about being a utopian living in someone else's system paid anything that is bad that happens can then be blamed on the sy

she's in port chester, new york. kristi kristina? reporter: what a blow, another blow to restaurants. this will be the second time they have to close indoor dining in new york city within just the past nine months. they have only been open for two months at 25% capacity and now they will have to close their doors again on monday. this comes after almost 1,000 restaurants in new york city alone have shut down since last march. we have governor cuomo, who did in the press conference also allude to how many vaccines he's expecting. listen to what he had to say. >> good news is the 170,000 doses from pfizer that we announced should be here imminently, sunday or monday. we also will get 346,000 doses of moderna on top of the 170,000 and they will be here the week of december 21. reporter: within the state of new york, we are currently operating in microclusters. there's containment zones. that's why i came to port chester today, because this is an orange zone. for the past month, this entire area has been shut down for indoor dining, hair

this is the cover of "the new york post." it says "censored, facebook and twitter boxed post expose and hunter biden filed." with the southern district of new york looking at hunter biden point securities fraud. here is the -- watch this. >> this was a policy around distribution of materials. we did not want twitter to be a distribution point for hacked materials. >> we try not to be arbiters of what is true ourselves, but we have partnered with fact-checkers around the world to help assess that, to prevent misinformation. >> martha: okay. trey gowdy, final thought on that before i let you go? >> it's just laughable. they disseminate false information all the time, and think about all the classified information that you can retweet. that is a crime, by the way. nothing in "the new york post" was a crime, so if they have a standard, none of us knows what it is. >> martha: trey gowdy, thank you very much. good to see you tonight, trey. >> yes, ma'am. >> martha: now we turn to the active role the senate has taken on the story, l

now, i acted proactively, frankly, for new york, and i have the airlines that are flying into new york from the uk that have all agreed that they will test people before they get on the flight in the uk en route to new york. but we have learned this lesson before, and that's what's frustrating, wolf. you know, when the way we got covid in the spring was the federal government thought that the coronavirus was still in china. it had gone to europe, and it came here from europe. and this is almost redux. and yes, the people who now fly into new york will be negative. but we'll have flights into chicago, we'll have flights into other part of the countries and those people can get into flights and come back to new york or infect other states. and this whole notion that any one state can protect itself was foolish from the beginning. right? new york has one of the lowest infection rates in the united states. but that doesn't stop the virus from coming in from other states. >> the british prime minister, boris johnson, says this new variant is 70% stronger in terms of transmitting the virus,

on behalf of the production crew here in new york, it is goodbye, as we leave you with a new york—based trumpeter playing imagine. music: imagine hello again. although skies across the uk on thursday were almost uniformly grey and drab, skies like these overhead in llangollen were pretty commonplace across the country. there were, however, big temperature contrasts from place to place. in the west, we had some milder atlantic air moving in, whereas across central and eastern england, along with the whole of scotland, we had much colder continental air. in the west, temperatures reached double figures — it was actually quite mild, 10 or 11 celsius — but across central and eastern england and scotland, temperatures were more typically around 5 or 6 celsius. we only managed to get 4 in dalwhinnie in the highlands of scotland, so there were some big contrasts. those contrasts were driven, really, by this weather front that's been bringing rain eastwards over recent hours. and it's, as well, been one of those nights where the milder air has been pushing in. temperatures for some have act

patient in new york city. britain they've distributed 200,000. we are seeing a growing movement of government agencies and i hope this happens across states of monitoring these because early detection of illness leads to better treatment and better out comes as we saw with president trump and boris johnson. >> that does make sense the earlier it is treated. but because the cdc doesn't recommend it, people should check with their doctors. you say you believe people are betting set up to fail. what do you mean by that? >> when you get patients with diffuse lung disease. oxygen absorbing is already impaired. their lungs have become so stiff that they can't breath, those patients end up on ventilators. when you get to this advanced injury, it is poor. there are still unacceptable high rates of death. it is important to note that we had reduced the death rate of one quarter what it was in the city. things have really changed practice. using dexamethasone, which is widely recognized. turning people over. you do not

what is happening in new york city, new york city is not publishing detaill on covid-19 infections. that say washington, d.c. and other cities deal. they are not coming in and shutting them down. it is just so sad they are destroying the greatest city in the world. >> it is absolutely infuriating. these politicians and bureaucrats were putting in place these orders, do not understand the fame that new york city business owners and working-class residents are going through because they have notd missed one taxpayer-funded check. their staff s is all being paid. meanwhile, the private sector is hurting. new york city business owners do not want more help from the government, they just t want the ability to run their businesses. they want the freedom to do that enough safeway. they are continually shut down even doubt that data does not back it up. this is really sad. this will continue the devastation we are seeing in new york as people and corporations continue to flee. it was once a fantastic and vibrant city. liz:z: thanks for joining us. great to have you on. >> thank you, liz. li

right now new york and florida have the exact same amount of cases and hospitalizations but new york has nearly twice the amount of fatalities and they have almost twice the jobless rate and just anecdotally, dana, i'm not hearing a lot of people leaving florida come to new york, sounds like it's going the other way so that's what you can look at. >> dana: all right, let me just do a quick fox news alert for you here. the fda advisory panel recommends the emergency use of the moderna covid vaccine. it still needs a final green light from the fda but that is expected so a little more good news on that front in terms of a vaccine. juan, what about the point about the numbers that if the science is showing and the data is showing that only 1.4% of covid cases are links to bars and restaurants, why not take that into account in new york or in other states that are locking down? >> juan: i'm not sure that the tracing from bars and restaurants is all that great but the point i think is out of control here is that the bottom line is you look at a stately florida, 33 deaths in the united sta
