TBS Today, Sept. 27

A newly discovered recording on Alyx Herrmann's cellphone captured the violent struggle that preceded her murder, prosecutors said this week.

Authorities found the recording Sunday — a month after her murder trial began.

The Scanner was the only news outlet in court this week for the bombshell announcement.

This was a tough week but Alyx's story deserves to be told. We will be in court Monday and Tuesday as well.

Friday morning was a bit lighter, as we were interviewed on camera about World News Day — "a global awareness campaign to amplify the value of fact-based journalism."

If the TV segment is available online, we'll share it with you.

Finally: Many thanks to those of you who already sent birthday gifts! We'll be sending individual thank-you notes as well.
