And the world of politics, waking up this morning, our Megan prats live at the White House, bringing us the biggest stories unfolding there and Megan. The problems just keep piling up for President biden. Mhm. That's right, baker Alicia, but we have a very different problem to talk about today. We've got to break down the recent death of an american reporter and the implications for President Biden's trip to the Middle East later this month. Shereen Abu Al was a reporter with 25 years of experience covering the Middle East, with a particular focus on the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Earlier this year. She was shot and killed during a raid by the Israeli Defense forces on a refugee camp in the West Bank. Since then, there have been several investigations of her death. With a range of conclusions, The Palestinian Authority concluded the I. D. F. Intentionally killed her. While news organizations concluded she was likely killed by the I. D. F. Israel disputed those character characterizations, saying either side could have fired the shot that ultimately killed Abu. The State Department here in the U. S. Conducted its own investigation, which recently concluded the I. D. F. Was quote, likely responsible for her death, but also stated that there is quote no reason to believe that this was intentional and that the bullet was too damaged to make a definitive conclusion in a press conference on Tuesday, the State Department added a caveat to that. Take a listen number one. As I said before, I believe to side this was not a criminal investigation. This was an effort on the part of the U. S. S. C. To summarize again. That is why we have caveats in there, likely fired from an I. D. F. Position. Uh no evidence to suggest this was intentional. So we need to be clear about what this was and what this wasn't. The inconclusive response has only caused the conversation around abu acls death to heat up in the past day or so. Alicia baker. Well, Megan, why would the State Department want to wade into this controversy right before President biden is slated to go on his first trip to the Middle East since taking office. It's such a good question. And the controversy would have likely overshadowed the trip in a greater way without some official word from the U. S. Because of its relationship with Israel and the massive amount of aid to the Palestinian territories. This incident has animated both sides. Four weeks with the State Department review. The President at least has something in hand to deflect questions he might get while he's in Israel while he's in the Palestinian Territories and while he's in Saudi Arabia next week and he's got a lot on that agenda. When he goes there, Megan prats live from the White House. Thank you so much for that update. Turning out of some of the business stories we're following for you. This hour recession fears increasing as our fears of getting laid off. So what are the most recession proof industries to work in? Well, economists like Karen Dina, professor at Harvard University Say healthcare, government and computers and information technology can all offer strong job security during economic downturns. That's because people depend on those industries, no matter what the economy is doing. On the other hand, manufacturing and construction slow down just like what we saw in 2007 and 2009 during the Great Recession. Meanwhile, americans are starting to dig into their huge pile of savings that they accumulated over the first two years of the pandemic.
