seattle and why are they getting away with this? >> i think they are getting away with it precisely because of the terminology that joshua brought up. a lot of times, they will masquerade as doing antibias or antidiscrimination training, which are all poor tenants of any hr department. but when you actually see how they are applying these concepts and what they are doing, it is a clear violation of title 7 and clear violation of the constitution. above everything else, it violates inherent dignity of each human being. no one should be subject to this level of racial harassment in the workplace. it is unconstitutional and immoral. >> todd: as part of the race and social justice initiative, joshua had to begin each meeting by denouncing his race and pronouns. i don't know how that advance the business of the city of seattle. your case will hopefully shed light on that. joshua and laura, thank you for telling us your story. it is fascinating. we will be watching. appreciated. the 5:00 hour on friday morning, patriot awards, an amazing

in fact alaska airlines actually canceled all of its portland flights and seattle flights out of seattle over 500 in total. so nationwide airlines scrapped 650 u.s. flights. about double the number yesterday. let's go to alaska airlines. they tweeted out this photo of its plane literally covered in icicles on the sea-tac runway. so many people are stranded at sfo because of the winter storm. there have been 322 delays, 122 cancellations at the airport today. betty yu is live there today, talking to so many travelers. i bet they're frustrated? >> reporter: that's right, juliette. and at this hour as you can see behind me, there is still a line to deal with those ongoing cancellations. tonight i met one woman from san jose who said she is just not making it home at all for christmas and she had an entire check-in luggage full of presents. so you can imagine the disappointment. >> i'm so done waiting in lines. if it's really 45 minutes later and my bag is not out here. bit time we met her in the evening. >> i'm hoping you could help me. >> reporter: she should have been home in nashville. i

i've had planned with three different people that i know that live in seattle. one was met with foul play and two others just family members moved back and it was just wasn't working out. so i was actually looking through my churches that i'm involved with to come up with an idea. and we woere working on somethig and that is when i got the call. so i just wish i could have been there. and, you know, it is -- they work miracles nowadays and someone got a miracle. that is when i hope was, that someone else got to appreciate the extra time. >> it shows what a big heart you have and we're all praying for your new heart when that is to come. >> that is right. >> come back and keep us posted, all right. >> thank you, we will. definitely. thank you for having me. >> thank you. >>> i mean, talk about a big heart, right? >> and what been amazing perspective after being through that much trauma and disruption and then you don't get it. >> we've seen the worst of so many things last week. and last week with shaqira and rooting for them. >> we'll be back in a moment, we hav

at daybreak, the airport had one runway open again, but alaska air, the major carrier out of seattle, canceled flights at both ceatec and portland until noon won't be home for family. and i can't do anything about it is what it is muslim joy time here in seattle, while we can that put travelers in the pacific northwest in the company of people nationwide trying to make it home for the holidays. denver was deep in the misery of cancelations on thursday. by friday, the nation joined from boston to orlando, canceled flights and disrupted travel plans were just trying to figure out what's going on. we're trying to avoid this line, and we're just trying to get home. this is a mess. everything you just canceled, canceled, canceled and there was one flight that made it off the air off the ground so that only one so far in our and a half now nobody's been answering our questions. they just send us to, like four different places. with a snap to freezing pavement turned to ice and roads turned deadly. minnesota alone saw 118 spinouts and 50 rex, kentucky, three fatalities, new york declared a s

if they beat the seattle seahawks. the niners still have yet to say if rookie sensation brock party will play tonight. the niners are going for their seventh straight win, while the struggling seahawks have lost three of their last four games. quarterback quarterback brock parties listed as questionable still with oblique and rib injuries, but he sounds like he's going to be ready. i feel like this is part of the game. a lot of the guys have said, you know, welcome to the nfl. you know, in terms of you get banged up a little bit. you gotta learn another install. you gotta memorize plays. you gotta get guys going around you this is you know, the best of the best. and for me, i look at it as a challenge. the niners also have injury issues at the defensive line and in the secondary wide receiver deebo samuel that with a bad ankle and knee, so the niners are 3.5 point road favorites. you can watch that game with us right here on ktvu fox to coverage begins at five o'clock tonight than the point after follows the game as al

here's what he had to say going in tonight's battle in seattle. >> myself. yeah, that's so they don't get caught up in all this noise and and stuff. and and then all of a sudden we thursday night. i'm not prepared like i need to be so it's definitely been a challenge in terms of getting the body right and moving on. and now haven't solved meetings and everything and get ready for thursday. but at the same time set out to do the same thing. >> so the niners hope that brock, the seahawks tonight, the seahawks, it's a must-win for win game for them a couple of months ago, it looked like the seahawks are going to pull away. but now they have been slipping big time. the can't stop the run. they can't run the ball. the forty-niners are red hot and brock purdy. if he does not take the field guys, josh johnson will also take the field. if you can. and at this point now they're even joking that it could be quarterback paint by numbers because he was 3rd string trey lance, jimmy g brock turner. james, be on standby because i think the niners are. so it doesn't matter

>> well, it helps having forty-niners fans show up in seattle. they think their team is looking purdy. good. 1st quarter. it sure was no score on second in 8 brock purdy with the double fake. then the pass over the middle to george kill for the 28 yard. touchdown. niners strike. first up 7, nothing in party rightfully hyped late in the 2nd quarter. niners up for geno smith. connects with travis homer, jimmie ward, trying to take home or down a green punches the ball out. charvarius ward recovers it and takes him deep into seattle territory. the niners defense continuing to shut teams down that that set up this play on second and goal. christian mccaffrey. adds to the lead here with a one yarder. he was great again tonight, niners lead 14, 3. >> at the half we go to the 3rd party. finds a wide open kettle. 54 yards kittle shaken off seattle defenders and he's in for the touchdown. his second of the game. he had 4 receptions, 93 yards and those 2 tds as the forty-niners win. 21 13 and more importantly, they clinched the nfc west for the first time

kron four's will tran seattle tonight popping champagne bottles because if they beat the seattle seahawks tonight, guess what? they have 2 things. one, they punch their ticket to the playoffs. 2, that's because they would have won the nfc west brock turner, the me brock turner. what i'm talking about, brock purdy, i should say brock purdy. he is the darling of the bay area because, well, we started the season the third-string quarterback position and then all of a sudden jimmy g and trey lance, they got hurt and then that made him number one. and that's why all hopes of super bowl championship rests on his right shoulder. but it's not his right shoulder. that's the problem. it's his ribs, which is why he is listed as questionable for tonight. it will be a game time decision. lots on the line. i mean, he was mister irrelevant. ensure when he got too the forty-niners after being drafted 262, a lot of people were saying who are you? because everybody knows the first round draft choices. now everybody knows his name and he says he will be ready for tonight. if he is ready to yeah, that's so t

he never made it to seattle, he did not get his heart transplant. the hospital is holding his place in seattle on the transplant list but he missed that transplant. he has seven kids. they were probably thinking the best christmas gift we could ever get is dad getting his new heart and he couldn't get it. a go fund me page was set up so he can at least stay locally in seattle for when a new heart becomes ready but, i mean, when you hear this story -- ashley: what a story. lauren: not to minimize anybody else's travel nightmare but this puts it in perspective. ashley: it certainly does and we wish him the very best. lauren, of course, thank you. after canceling thousands of flight this is week, southwest airlines say they're resuming normal operations today. lydia hu has been following it since the very beginning of the debacle. lydia, how long will it take to get all the stranded people home, do we know? >> ashley, southwest started selling tickets again today and hopefully people stuck will be able to rebook on southwest if they choose and get back

that's seattle and unfortunately , i've got nothing but bad news for you, lauren. seattle, tacoma airport just announced because of ice on the runway they've shutdown all operations and that means alaska airlines as well grounded all their flights out of seattle and portland as well so if you got people in the pacific northwest it doesn't look good in terms of them making it home in time for christmas. as we start to look at the major air carriers, cancellations since midnight. american, 246, delta 166 cancellations, southwest airlines is still taking it pretty hard, 764 cancellations, united 174 and again that's just since midnight. as we look ink across nation, the number of domestic flights canceled just came up a little bit, 3,433 and there really aren't a lot of good options for the people who are trying to make it home for christmas. >> unfortunately, last night, we were scheduled to leave about 7:50 this morning and we got a text last night saying they rescheduled us to austin at 12:00 today with a layover. we're just trying to figure out what's going on and
