    Inside United Airlines nerve center: How thousands of flights stay on track every day
    If youve ever boarded a United Airlines flight, theres a good chance your journey was quietly guided by a massive team working behind the scenes, far from the airport, and even farther from the public eye.That team is based at United Airlines Network Operations Center (NOC), a 24/7 command hub located just outside of Chicago, where specialists oversee nearly 5,000 flights a day.The facility houses more than 2,000 employees across 26 departments, from flight dispatch and crew scheduling to meteorology and aircraft maintenance coordination.Together, they monitor and manage Uniteds global operations, including departures and arrivals in major airport hubs.TSA SCREENS RECORD NUMBER OF TRAVELERS OVER LABOR DAY WEEKEND AS AIR TRAVEL SOARS"What you see in front of you is really where our global operations is controlled," Harel Magaritz, managing director of NOC daily operations, said during a behind-the-scenes tour of the center.Magaritz says the job is all about constant coordination and expecting the unexpected."Its about knowing that anything around the world can happen at any given moment," he said. "All the things that come up that could potentially disrupt a flight our job is to collect that information and then communicate it out to the field."That includes everything from mechanical issues to weather delays to crew reassignments.MAJOR AIRLINE MAKES BIG CHANGE TO EASE TRAVEL WOES AMID CHAOS AT NEWARK AIRPORTSPIRIT AIRLINES WARNS IT MAY NOT SURVIVE ANOTHER YEAROne of the most critical teams inside the NOC is the in-house meteorology department, led by Nathan Polderman, senior manager of meteorology. His team is responsible for issuing weather forecasts across Uniteds network, and flagging any events that might delay or ground flights."In some cases, weve had two or three hubs with thunderstorm activity in the same day," Polderman said. "So you can imagine that makes the weather team very busy."Each day starts with two forecasters overnight, ramping up to four meteorologists during the day, according to Polderman. Their forecasts are used by flight dispatchers to decide how or if a flight should proceed.UNITED AIRLINES CEO GIVES 5-WORD PREDICTION THAT LOW-COST RIVAL WILL GO OUT OF BUSINESS"Turbulence, icing, bad weather at the destination airport, if anythings going to happen to that flight, the dispatcher is going to coordinate that," Polderman said.Magaritz said the goal is simple: keep flights moving safely and smoothly, often before passengers even realize a problem exists."Its about that comfort level of knowing youre not out there by yourself," Margaritz said. "Youre not just buying a ticket and hoping youll make it to your destination. There are entire teams and thousands of people working in the background."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPUnited officials also emphasized how essential it is to receive real-time updates from airports across the country in order to keep operations seamless across the network.

    Colbert laments 'tonight we are all Jimmy Kimmel' as outgoing CBS host pays tribute to fallen ABC colleague
    Outgoing "Late Show" host Stephen Colbert paid tribute to his fallen colleague Jimmy Kimmel after ABC pulled the host off the air."I'm your host Stephen Colbert, but tonight we are all Jimmy Kimmel," the CBS host began his show Thursday night.Colbert called ABC's move to yank Kimmel's show "blatant censorship.""And it always starts small," Colbert said. "Remember, like in week one of his presidency, Gulf of America. Call it Gulf of America. Sure, it seems harmless, but with an autocrat, you cannot give an inch!""And if ABC thinks this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive," Colbert warned the rival network.LIBERALS RAGE AS ABC PULLS JIMMY KIMMEL OFF THE AIR FOLLOWING CHARLIE KIRK ASSASSIN COMMENTSColbert told Kimmel, "I stand with you and your staff 100%," but griped that he couldn't let him enjoy his Emmy win "for like one week."He went on to shrug off Kimmel's comments about the accused Charlie Kirk assassin, suggesting Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chair's Brendan Carr's condemnation was unwarranted and insisting what Kimmel said wasn't so "provocative."Colbert also slammed Carr's threat to Disney and accused him of being a hypocrite, citing a 2020 social media post decrying the censoring of political satire, including "late-night comedians."ABC INSIDER HOPES LIBERALS TAKE THIS LESSON AWAY FROM JIMMY KIMMEL SAGAColbert pointed to Nexstar Media Groups announcement that its ABC affiliates would preempt "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and noted the companys forthcoming merger would need approval from the Trump administration."So a company apparently capitulating to the whims of the president in order to ensure their merger goes through. Has that ever happened before?" he asked with a wink and a nod.CBS previously announced it would end "The Late Show" in May 2026, just days after parent company Paramount settled President Donald Trumps lawsuita development critics have linked to Paramounts $8 billion merger with Skydance Media.CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST MEDIA AND CULTURE NEWSOn Monday, Kimmel suggested that Kirk's alleged assassin, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, was part of the "MAGA gang" despite reports he had a left-wing ideology, which was later reaffirmed in Tuesday's indictment."We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel told his audience.He also mocked Trump over an exchange he had with a reporter about Kirk's death, saying, "This is not how an adult grieves the murder of somebody he called a friend. This is how a 4-year-old mourns a goldfish, OK?"Disney had faced mounting pressure from ABC affiliate stations around the country as well as the FCC over its handling of Kimmel. The company ultimately decided Wednesday it would preempt his show indefinitely.

    FCC chair thinks investigating 'The View' 'worthwhile' after Jimmy Kimmel suspension
    Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carrsaid Thursday he believes it would be "worthwhile" to investigate whether ABCs daytime talk show "The View" is violating broadcast rules in the wake of Jimmy Kimmels suspension.Carr argued on "The Scott Jennings Show" that the left-leaning talk show could be violating the commission's "equal time" rule, which requires broadcasters to provide equal opportunity to all political candidates except for a "bona fide news show.""Potentially, I would assume you can make the argument that The View is a bona fide news show, but I'm not so sure about that," Carr said. "And I think it's worthwhile to have the FCC look into whether The View and some of these other programs that you have still qualify as bona fide news programs and therefore exempt from the equal opportunity regime that Congress has put in place."'THE VIEW' HOST SUNNY HOSTIN WARNS COLBERT CANCELLATION COULD LEAD TO THE 'DISMANTLING OF OUR CONSTITUTION'Fox News Digital reached out to ABC and Disney for comment.According to the Media Research Center, "The View" failed to book a single right-leaning guest to discuss politics between January and April 2025. At the same time, "The View" managed to welcome 63 liberal guests, including nine Democratic politicians."The View" has also been frequently attacked by the Trump administration over the hosts' tirades against President Donald Trump. A White House spokesperson warned in July that the show could be "pulled off-air" if the attacks didnt stop.An entertainment lawyer with clients at ABC told Fox News Digital that "The View" could very well be the next show on the chopping block."I think The View is next," the lawyer said, saying the show's liberal brand was wearing thin.ABC'S 'THE VIEW' SKIPS JIMMY KIMMEL NEWS ON THURSDAY'S SHOWCarrs suggestion came one day after another ABC program, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" was suspended indefinitely over comments made by late-night host Jimmy Kimmel about the Charlie Kirk assassin."We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel said.Prior to the announcement, Carr criticized ABC and Disney over Kimmels conduct.FCC CHAIR BRENDAN CARR DEFENDS ABC AFFILIATES PULLING JIMMY KIMMEL SHOW AFTER MONOLOGUE MOCKING CHARLIE KIRK"And I've been very clear from the moment that I have become chairman of the FCC, I want to reinvigorate the public interest. And what people don't understand is that the broadcasters, and you've gotten this right, are entirely different than people that use other forms of communication. They have a license granted by us at the FCC, and that comes with it an obligation to operate in the public interest," Carr said.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"Look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct, to take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or, you know, there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."

    NY Times columnist defends belief that Charlie Kirk practiced politics 'the right way' after liberal backlash
    New York Times columnist Ezra Klein stood by his opinion piece that said Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk practiced politics "the right way" after revealing on his podcast Tuesday that he received pushback from his own side.On Sept. 10, Kirk was shot and killed during a campus event at Utah Valley University. FBI officers and Utah Gov. Spencer Cox later said the shooter held a "leftist ideology" that could have motivated the assassination.One day later, Klein published a piece honoring his legacy, "Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics the Right Way." He highlighted Kirks work in engaging with the opposition despite disagreeing with his politics.DEMOCRATS SHOULD SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT RATHER THAN FUND TRUMP'S 'MAFIA' TAKEOVER, NYT COLUMNIST ARGUES"You can dislike much of what Kirk believed, and the following statement is still true: Kirk was practicing politics in exactly the right way," Klein wrote. "He was showing up to campuses and talking with anyone who would talk to him. He was one of the eras most effective practitioners of persuasion. When the left thought its hold on the hearts and minds of college students was nearly absolute, Kirk showed up again and again to break it."Klein addressed the piece again on his podcast, "The Ezra Klein Show," calling it the most "polarizing" piece hes written based on the reaction he received."Ive published a lot of pieces over the years," Klein said. "Im not sure Ive published any with as polarizing a reaction as that one. A lot of people appreciated it, particularly on the right. They felt I saw their friend and their ally more the way they saw him. There were many, many closer to my own politics, who were truly infuriated by it. Privately and publicly, they offered the worst things Kirk has said and done."ANTI-TRUMP VOICES PRAISE CHARLIE KIRK'S LEGACY AFTER ASSASSINATION, SAY HE WAS DOING POLITICS 'THE RIGHT WAY'Klein described being told that one could condemn political violence without "whitewashing" a person like Kirk, but he added that he no longer believes simply condemning violence is enough.He remarked that he grew more sympathetic and empathetic toward Kirk as a result."In ways that surprise me, given what I thought of Kirks project, I was and am grieving for Kirk himself. Not because I knew him I didnt. Not because he was a saint he wasnt. Not because I agreed with him no. Most of what he poured himself into trying to achieve, I pour myself into trying to prevent," Klein said."But I find myself grieving for him because I recognize some commonality with him. He was murdered for participating in our politics. Somewhere beyond how much divided us, there was something that bonded us, too. Some effort to change this country in ways that we think are good."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREIn the spirit of finding common ground, Klein released a full conversation between him and Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"We are going to have to live here with one another, believing what we believe, disagreeing in the ways we disagree," Klein said.

    Chuck Schumer questions whether Epstein was 'the real reason' Jimmy Kimmel's late-night show was canceled
    After news broke that late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was canceled by Disney over his comments about Charlie Kirk, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer took to social media to question the motivations behind the abrupt cancellation. Schumer questioned in a Thursday afternoon post on X whether "Epstein" was "the real reason" Kimmel was forcibly scrubbed from the airwaves. "IS EPSTEIN THE REAL REASON TRUMP HAD KIMMEL CANCELED?!" Schumer asked in the post, which also included a screenshot of a New York Times article about how all the popular late-night hosts, including Kimmel, have used the newly released Epstein documents to roast the president over his alleged association with the disgraced financier.Fox News Digital reached out to Schumer's representatives for more details on what Schumer was attempting to imply, but did not receive a response in time for publication.JIMMY KIMMEL CANCELLATION SPARKS FIERCE CELEBRITY SPLIT IN HOLLYWOODNexstar Media Group, which owns hundreds of television stations, announced on Wednesday that it would be pulling Kimmel's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" talk show from its ABC affiliates "for the foreseeable future" and would replace it with other programming over his comments about alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson."Mr. Kimmels comments about the death of Mr. Kirk are offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse, and we do not believe they reflect the spectrum of opinions, views or values of the local communities in which we are located," Nexstar's broadcasting chief, Andrew Alford, said in a press release. "Continuing to give Mr. Kimmel a broadcast platform in the communities we serve is simply not in the public interest at the current time, and we have made the difficult decision to preempt his show in an effort to let cooler heads prevail as we move toward the resumption of respectful, constructive dialogue."Trump spoke about the cancellation Thursday while he was in the United Kingdom, telling reporters that Kimmel "was fired" because he had bad ratings.ABCS JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE! HEMORRHAGED VIEWERS OVER PAST DECADE, LOST 72% AMONG KEY DEMO"Jimmy Kimmel was fired 'cause he had bad ratings more than anything else and he said a horrible thing about a great gentleman known as Charlie Kirk. And Jimmy Kimmel is not a talented person, he had very bad ratings and they shoulda fired him a long time ago," Trump said during a Thursday press conference alongside United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer in England. "He was fired for lack of talent," Trump added.Meanwhile, in a social media post on his platform, Truth Social, on Wednesday night, Trump called the cancellation "great news for America." The Kirk comments in question reportedly stem from a Monday airing of Kimmel's show, during which he accused conservatives of reaching "new lows" in their efforts to try to pin Kirk's assassin as connected to some form of left-wing ideology."We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it," Kimmel said.Following news of the cancellation, Federal Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr applauded local television stations for "standing up to serve the interests of their community."

    Tom Brady recalls forgetful, critical mental error in game against Bears: 'I even mess things up'
    The Dallas Cowboys will visit the Chicago Bears on Sunday in "America's Game of the Week" on FOX. The Bears are seeking their first win of the season, while the Cowboys aim for a second consecutive victory.Tom Brady, the lead analyst for FOXs NFL coverage, will be in the broadcast booth for the call alongside play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt. As the highly anticipated game drew closer, Brady took a moment to reflect on one of the more forgettable moments of his storied NFL career that occurred the last time he played at historic Soldier Field.Brady played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, when he confused what he thought was a fourth down with what was in reality a third down.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"You know, sometimes I even mess things up," Brady said on "Story Time with Tom." as he watched a video replay of his mistake, "and I did on that day."The Bucs were trailing the Bears by one point in the final minute of the game when Brady's pass to Cameron Brate fell incomplete. Tampa Bay was aiming to get in field goal range. Brady stayed on the field and proceeded to hold up four fingers a sign that the team had one more opportunity to gain the crucial yardage for the field goal kicker."Broken up on third down," Brady said in jest. "What's the next play? Fourth down? I thought what happened on third down was the incompletion to Cam Brate."The Bucs did not return to Chicago for another game in Brady's ensuing seasons. Although nearly five years have passed, Brady admitted he was not pleased with his actions from that moment."I kind of couldn't believe it that I forgot," Brady said. "I think I actually clocked a ball. That was a bad mess-up. Bad for the quarterback to know what down it is, that's for sure.""If they gave us a fifth down, I maybe would've converted on fourth down and moved the sticks," he added.Despite the slip up, Brady's first season away from the New England Patriots ultimately turned out successful. He hoisted the Vince Lombardi Trophy for the seventh time in his career, leading the Buccaneers to victory in Super Bowl LV.The Cowboys-Bears game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET on FOX on Sept. 21.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
