Description

Las Vegas has a date to reopen! On June 4, selected casinos will be open for business. Temperatures will be checked and employees will wear masks. Bars and restaurants will be open, but buffets will continue to be closed. On the gambling floor, there will be increased cleaning and less people a table. Bailey Schulz, reporter at the Las Vegas Review-Journal, joins us for the plans to open Vegas.




Next, President Trump has signed an executive order that could open the door for federal regulators to punish Facebook, Google, and Twitter for the way they moderate content online. This order comes after Twitter decided to fact check some posts by the president about mail-in voting. The order could pave the way for a revision of a long standing legal protection known as section 230. Cat Zakrzewski, author of the Technology 202 Newsletter at the Washington Post, joins us for the fight against big tech companies.




Finally, antibody tests and issues with their accuracy have led to more questions for many who felt they were ill before the first reported coronavirus case in January. After looking at their personal histories and antibody test results some think that the coronavirus could have been circulating as early as November of last year. Dan Frosch, reporter at the WSJ, joins us for more.
