The Record: Wednesday, July 19, Full Show
As Seattle tries to improve its police department, who is getting mistreated? The officers union says the city is steam rolling the union bargaining process. Some city leaders say the police are being stubborn and selfish. We'll have that debate.
Also have you heard about Alexa -- the Amazon Echo -- deciding on its own to call the police? The media have reported it but that doesn't mean it really happens. We'll tell you what can happen with Alexa.
And you're going to find out what it's like to perform hernia surgery on a gorilla.
