Rescued Soccer Team Recovering in Hospital Isolation
BRIGGS: Joyful tears flow as family members of that rescued Thai soccer team get to see the boys through protective glass. The boys recovering at a hospital isolation unit after spending 18 days trapped underground. Some details of their harrowing rescue only now coming to light. Matt Rivers has the latest from Thailand.</s>MATT RIVERS, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, a lot of new video here that we're seeing for the first time coming out in northern Thailand, videos released by the Thai government. And let's start with the rescue attempt. The Thai government releasing clips from the video they shot inside that cave, which showed just an absolutely treacherous path for rescuers to try and carry these kids out. What you see in that video is rescuers braving very dangerous conditions, carrying boys out on stretchers. At some points, they actually have to hoist the stretcher up onto a pulley system because parts of that cave were so steep that rescuers couldn't carry the stretcher safely. So they actually had to hoist the stretchers up to get the boys out. You see running water, you see how murky it is, just an incredibly difficult task for rescuers. You also see them giving initial medical treatment inside that cave. So really good insight that we didn't have before into how difficult this rescue operation turned out to be for the brave volunteers and the Thai military and the international military that came here to get these boys out. So between video of the rescue attempt and video of the hospital, we are getting more and more insight into this situation overall here in northern Thailand -- Christine, Dave.</s>ROMANS: All right, Matt Rivers.

The U.S. announced new tariffs on China worth $200 billion. This time targeting a whole bunch of consumer goods.

It's part of a broader effort to fight trolls, fake news and disinformation on the platform. Papa John's founder in trouble again. John Schnatter resigning now as chairman for using a racial slur on a call, a conference call designed to stop future PR disasters. Schnatter used the N word during a role playing exercise. He complained in this exercise that Colonel Sanders used the term without facing backlash. He used the term when he said that. He said that when he was growing up in Indiana racists drive black people from their truck. Schnatter's comments were supposed to show he is against racism, but the people on the call were offended. Schnartter apologized, investors were not impressed. The stock fell nearly 5 percent. Last year Schnatter stepped as CEO after he said Poppy John's sales will hurt by the NFL anthem protest -- remember that?</s>BRIGGS: I do indeed.</s>ROMANS: He said that their pizza sales were down because of the way the NFL handled the players who kneel.</s>BRIGGS: A real man PR nightmare. A lot of people could not see what the connection could be between, you know, how many pieces you buy and whether a player is, you know, snapping. That Twitter story in connection to the president. All eyes on the president's Twitter account because he has 53.3 million followers but many feel that tens of millions.</s>ROMANS: Yes.</s>BRIGGS: Could be gone as well as President Obama's Twitter account as well.
