Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

Prince Harry is reconsidering his decision to bring his family to the UK - after a security update.
The Duke and Duchess have been planning their visit to Britain, with Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet for the first time in four years.
International Correspondent Gavin Grey says they're meant to stay in a royal lodge, but it now looks as though Harry will go by himself.
He says although they will have security there, the family would have to rely on private security from California when they're not on the royal estate.

An expert believes a ceasefire breach between the US and Iran comes from a contradiction within the agreement.
Hostilities between the two nations have flared again, with new US strikes on Iranian targets and reports of attacks in the Gulf.
Bahrain has reported an attack involving several Iranian drones.
Jerusalem correspondent Linda Gradstein told Ryan Bridge the ceasefire deals that include Israel are vastly different.
She says according to the ceasefire between Iran and the United States, Lebanon is included, and Israel has to withdraw from the country, but the agreement signed between Israel and Lebanon says it can stay.

I don't think Opportunity will hit five percent this election.
It's fun to flirt, people are frustrated, but I was there when Colin Craig got close and failed, saw Gareth Morgan then Geoff Simmons have a crack and fail.
I encourage anyone listening to have a look at their policies, do the maths and figure out for themselves how much worse, or better off, you'll be.
Their new leader is a great communicator. Her main job was an environmental/carbon advisor to businesses.
I don't really know what that means, but she's really lovely.
The problem with getting to five percent is timing.
The closer we get to election, this flirt, this fascination, this honeymoon, if you will, will have worn off.
Voters go into the booth trying to keep one side in, or one side out.
There's little room for flights of fancy in the polling booth.
The other thing people do in the polling booth is take out insurance.
By election week it's pretty clear, if you're listening, who is doing well and who is not.
So, voters take out insurance, it's why I've said consistently since last year that Winston will do well this year.
Labour voters, not National, will slide into his DMs.
He's offering them everything Hipkins is short of a Labour government on everything to from stopping asset sales to nationalising industry.
One of TOP's charms is that you don't know which way they'll go, It's also their biggest weakness.
They're unlikely to get the vast majority of their policies into a coalition agreement, so you're basically voting for who gets the keys to the kingdom.
And with TOP, you just don't know, and I think that'll be too big a risk for most to take come November 7th.
