Inside Edition for Monday, December 16, 2024

It's another example of the divide in this country. A comic doing standup was arguing with a heckler when a beer was thrown right at her. Every bit the boss…the comic took that beer and chugged it - now she's being praised by some big name comics for keeping her cool. She spoke with Les Trent. And the crisis in Ukraine escalated dramatically this weekend, with the bombing of a critical bridge to Crimea followed today by what Vladimir Putin says are revenge strikes against at least 11 cities in Ukraine. As the war there rachets up…concern here is growing. And perhaps because of President Biden's comments about the potential for nuclear Armageddon. Steven Fabian says sales of potassium iodide pills are skyrocketing. Plus, they say it takes a village. One mom is hugely grateful that when their car was stolen with her two-year-old inside, the local school bus driver took charge and immediately broadcast the situation to all the school bus drivers. And wouldn't you know…one of them spotted the abducted toddler and saved the day. And Barney, the purple dinosaur was a beloved children's figure. Even though his mantra was “i love you”…not everyone loved him back.
