each other? Oh, yes. Do you? Wanted, `` watch it, Earl! `` girl. Time now

:00:00.:00:07.

for the last addition of Diane Sawyer's ABC World News. An appeal

:00:08.:00:14.

to the terrorists, an American mother's plea to ISIS for the life

:00:15.:00:20.

of her son. A monster wave bowls over a crowd gathered on the beach.

:00:21.:00:28.

Powerful storms on the move. They made in America investigation as we

:00:29.:00:32.

reveal products that say they are made in America but are actually

:00:33.:00:37.

made in China. American workers who want their jobs back tonight. A

:00:38.:00:46.

personal note, a thank you to all of you as I leave the anchor desk at

:00:47.:00:57.

ABC World News. Good evening to you. The new video

:00:58.:01:04.

from one American mother asking the terrorists of ISIS to show

:01:05.:01:08.

humanity, asking that they be merciful and let her son live. These

:01:09.:01:13.

are the same killers who executed James Foley and we are learning more

:01:14.:01:16.

about them as the other American journalist released after two years

:01:17.:01:20.

is home and speaking for the first time. Now we go to our

:01:21.:01:29.

correspondent. My son is in your hands. A mother's emotional tweeting

:01:30.:01:39.

eight days after ISIS said it would execute her son, shown in the same

:01:40.:01:43.

video that showed the execution of James Foley. I want what every

:01:44.:01:47.

mother wants, to see her children's children. The plea was directly

:01:48.:01:55.

addressed to the leader of ISIS, a man who claims he is the prince of

:01:56.:02:01.

the Muslim world. That is how he was addressed. I have always learned

:02:02.:02:05.

that you can grant amnesty and I ask you to these release my child. For

:02:06.:02:10.

another American mother today, anguish turned to joy as her son,

:02:11.:02:16.

Peter Theo Curtis returned home to Cambridge, Massachusetts after being

:02:17.:02:21.

held by a different Jihadist group in Syria. I had no idea that so much

:02:22.:02:27.

energy was being expended on my behalf and I am overwhelmed. As much

:02:28.:02:33.

as the American hostages have focused attention on the Syrian

:02:34.:02:36.

terrorist groups, it is the American troops that have joined them that

:02:37.:02:41.

most worry authorities. New details emerged about this American

:02:42.:02:46.

Jihadist, killed fighting for ISIS in Syria over the weekend. It turns

:02:47.:02:51.

out his high school, in suburban Minneapolis, got together at least

:02:52.:02:57.

two Midwestern boys who went on to become terrorists. This family photo

:02:58.:03:03.

shows him and his high school classmate who later died fighting

:03:04.:03:15.

for the Al`Qaeda group in Somalia. We never thought they would turn to

:03:16.:03:19.

violence. Would there be a word jihadists from this high school?

:03:20.:03:27.

This video shows the militant wearing a sweatshirt with the same

:03:28.:03:35.

insignia as the high school. As the journalist's mother awaits word of

:03:36.:03:38.

her son, the White House announced that it has carried out more

:03:39.:03:41.

airstrikes against ISIS on the ignoring the terrorist threat to

:03:42.:03:47.

kill him if rocket strikes continue. Another big story

:03:48.:03:53.

developing in the Midwest, officials are warning to stay out of the

:03:54.:03:59.

water. Monster waves and powerful riptides fuelled by a storm

:04:00.:04:03.

offshore. At least one person has died and our correspondent is

:04:04.:04:09.

there. Here at the infamous wage in Newport Beach California, 20 foot

:04:10.:04:17.

waves are crashing in. The water is treacherous and so is the sand. I

:04:18.:04:28.

have never seen something like this this tropical storm is drawing

:04:29.:04:34.

dozens of servers and thousands of spectators. There was flooding

:04:35.:04:46.

overnight a little further north yesterday, a server in Malibu died

:04:47.:04:52.

after being dragged under by this well and today another was rescued

:04:53.:05:03.

by a service hero, Laird Hamilton. Over on the East Coast, Hurricane

:05:04.:05:12.

Cristobal is wreaking havoc as well, Ealing two. `` killing. But at

:05:13.:05:22.

the beach, they know the risks. A bit frightening? Yes, but fear is

:05:23.:05:28.

good for you. He blew go out there are risking life and limb and our

:05:29.:05:35.

lifeguards are very careful about who they let out their. I am going

:05:36.:05:39.

to leave this to people who know what they are doing `` there.

:05:40.:05:50.

California will continue seeing waves at least through Friday. Now

:05:51.:05:56.

we are talking to our meteorologist. As was mentioned, this is the path

:05:57.:06:04.

of the tropical storm, weakening but still pushing into Southern

:06:05.:06:08.

California. What you are seeing is wave heights, so close to the

:06:09.:06:13.

centre, their 25 feet. Close to the centre, their 25 feet. Close to the

:06:14.:06:24.

sure it is up to 15 `` and they are, close to the shore. The timing

:06:25.:06:35.

for this is Thursday for the Southeast, and it will get worse

:06:36.:06:44.

over the weekend. Thank you so much. Heading back overseas where our

:06:45.:06:52.

correspondent continues his extraordinary reporting. He has

:06:53.:06:55.

travelled to Liberia, hot zone of Ebola and tonight the CDC is on the

:06:56.:07:02.

ground and he is reporting. The head of the CDC is touring Liberia,

:07:03.:07:09.

assessing the Ebola outbreak and I caught up with him at the country's

:07:10.:07:14.

's largest Ebola treatment centre. 120 beds and totally full. This is a

:07:15.:07:20.

threat not just to the region but to the entire world, at the set, and if

:07:21.:07:26.

we do not take distinctive action, this could be causing problems for

:07:27.:07:35.

years to come. Today, I saw the construction of a 400 bed Ebola

:07:36.:07:40.

treatment centre from Medecins Sans Frontieres. This could provide type

:07:41.:07:43.

of care that could save lives. rages across the country tonight

:07:44.:08:05.

after video footage emerged of a nine`year`old girl being taught how

:08:06.:08:12.

to hire a powerful weapon. They are visiting a popular tourist

:08:13.:08:16.

attraction near Las Vegas more a shooting range called Bullets and

:08:17.:08:22.

Burgers. The instructor switches begun to four automatic but when she

:08:23.:08:27.

fires, she loses control, accidentally shooting him dead. It

:08:28.:08:35.

was like losing a brother. The shooting is tragically similar to

:08:36.:08:40.

this one in 2008, when an eight`year`old boy fired a uzi and

:08:41.:08:45.

recoiled, killing him. There is no federal law prohibiting children

:08:46.:08:48.

from shooting ranges. In Pennsylvania, kids have to be 12 or

:08:49.:08:55.

older. In California, seven. One Texas Ranger allows children to fire

:08:56.:08:58.

guns from as young as six years old. Some firing ranges like this

:08:59.:09:04.

one in Colorado say that is too young. We will not allow that in

:09:05.:09:10.

this club. They are still developing and there is a strength issue, there

:09:11.:09:15.

is a maturity issue and a competency issue. Today, we fired the same

:09:16.:09:21.

calibre bullet. You can see the kick. A powerful force that some

:09:22.:09:26.

firearms experts say maybe too much for children to handle.

:09:27.:09:37.

Tonight, a lawsuit filed by parents across the country worried about

:09:38.:09:40.

children, sports and concussion. The parents are asking soccer leagues to

:09:41.:09:46.

ban any player under 14 years old from heading a soccer ball. They

:09:47.:09:50.

also want the leagues to monitor the medical condition of current and

:09:51.:09:55.

former players. Next, celebrating with the people of Chicago and

:09:56.:09:59.

Philadelphia. A parade for the US Little League champions. They fell

:10:00.:10:06.

short of winning the World Series but the non`stop thousands of fans

:10:07.:10:09.

from showering them with confetti. And in Philadelphia, a heroes

:10:10.:10:17.

welcome for the girl with a 70 mph fastball and all of her team`mates

:10:18.:10:21.

as well. Next, our special investigation. Products that say

:10:22.:10:26.

they are made in America but are really made in China. Tonight, the

:10:27.:10:29.

people fighting back. Now, our Made in America

:10:30.:11:13.

investigation. Customers who believe they are buying products made in

:11:14.:11:16.

America, right down to the packaging. But despite the

:11:17.:11:21.

packaging, they are actually made in China. And the American workers are

:11:22.:11:31.

fighting back tonight. We know the power of those three words, Made in

:11:32.:11:36.

America. But what happens when that label does not mean what it says? So

:11:37.:11:40.

many have contacted us with pictures, dish towels with the

:11:41.:11:49.

American flag on the label. These were made in Pakistan. And these

:11:50.:11:57.

made in Vietnam. The American flag is all over this packaging but it is

:11:58.:12:10.

made in China. Many companies that are not made in America are putting

:12:11.:12:13.

the American flag all over their product even when they are not made

:12:14.:12:19.

here. Made in America sells. At the International property rights

:12:20.:12:21.

Centre, we were given a first`hand look. Would Americans this ``

:12:22.:12:30.

shocked at this? Most of them would have no idea. One of the most eye

:12:31.:12:35.

opening examples is the language learning tool which is made in

:12:36.:12:40.

America by American workers. But it turns out that some people are

:12:41.:12:44.

it is not. This looks like the one it is not. This looks like the one

:12:45.:12:48.

you would order from the American company but this one came instead.

:12:49.:12:53.

From China. This one came from China. Look closely at the spelling

:12:54.:13:04.

errors. Who made this? These are two websites side`by`side. One is the

:13:05.:13:09.

real thing and one is the fight. Can you tell which? We were stumped. It

:13:10.:13:16.

is really hard to tell which one is fake and which one is real? All

:13:17.:13:22.

dissent website selling `` all different websites selling the

:13:23.:13:26.

programme and all of them fake. They have stolen this picture of the

:13:27.:13:30.

woman from the real website. And imagine how those American workers

:13:31.:13:35.

feel. There is someone out there who was making their own money of our

:13:36.:13:45.

hard work. Tonight from `` tonight, with help from federal authorities,

:13:46.:13:49.

they are getting those jobs back. They show us the counterfeit

:13:50.:13:51.

products sent in by customers who thought they were made here. All of

:13:52.:13:57.

these are counterfeit programmes. It angers them to think of workers

:13:58.:14:00.

overseas putting these boxes together. People who did not care

:14:01.:14:07.

half as much as these people care. 35% of their business has been lost

:14:08.:14:11.

to counterfeiters and they want that business and those American jobs

:14:12.:14:18.

back. Just incredible to think of the jobs they could add if they

:14:19.:14:22.

could knock down a fraction of this. The spelling errors on the box.

:14:23.:14:26.

Check the box at home. And that is where we began, trying

:14:27.:14:32.

to help create American jobs. How many reports on Made in America have

:14:33.:14:35.

we done over the years? We asked them to crunch the numbers.

:14:36.:14:40.

150 reports and updates since we started these smalltown reports.

:14:41.:14:46.

Will you have something next week? Yes. Another Made in America and it

:14:47.:14:49.

involves something all our fighter pilots rely on.

:14:50.:14:55.

And I just want to say to everyone watching that you have seen David at

:14:56.:14:59.

this desk and on this chair of so many times and you know his

:15:00.:15:02.

commitment to bringing you the news and may I just say to you,

:15:03.:15:06.

personally, right here, I cannot wait to see you in high gear. Let it

:15:07.:15:11.

begin. It has been an honour sitting across

:15:12.:15:13.

from you. Now, I would like to take you behind

:15:14.:15:18.

the scenes to need some true friends who are at the heart of world. Night

:15:19.:15:26.

after night behind the desk, behind the camera, the team of ABC World

:15:27.:15:31.

:15:40.:15:44.

passion, curiosity and dedication. This is what we call the rim, an

:15:45.:15:49.

oval shaped nerve centre of news and ideas. The Executive Producer, the

:15:50.:16:01.

traffic cops of everything pouring traffic cops of everything pouring

:16:02.:16:07.

in. And over in the corner, the young faces, the people who will run

:16:08.:16:12.

this news division someday. Then off a secret shortcut of stairs, a

:16:13.:16:16.

warren of edit rooms with our brilliant producers and editors.

:16:17.:16:24.

Then there is the graphics department. And our powerful

:16:25.:16:33.

Washington bureau. Our teams across the country, our teams around the

:16:34.:16:37.

globe, working under tight deadlines every single day. And every now and

:16:38.:16:48.

then singing together. We kindly ask you not judge the singing. And as

:16:49.:16:59.

the countdown begins, we get ready for air. In the studio, the people

:17:00.:17:04.

who are front and centre with me every night. Again, so much

:17:05.:17:11.

dedication and intelligence. Determination and certainty of

:17:12.:17:29.

purpose. And this is our director. Here we go! The control room. The

:17:30.:17:38.

team, waving back. Thank you for every single night. And now it is

:17:39.:17:44.

time to say good night and I just want you to know what a deep

:17:45.:17:47.

privilege it has been to sit in the anchor chair at world News this

:17:48.:17:51.

evening, the flagship broadcast of ABC. It has been wonderful to be the

:17:52.:17:59.

home port for the brave and brilliant forces of ABC News around

:18:00.:18:02.

the world and to feel every single night that you and I are in a

:18:03.:18:08.

conversation about the day together. Sometimes, as we know, there have

:18:09.:18:13.

been difficult studies `` stories that you have always made it clear

:18:14.:18:15.

that like me, you believe better days will come, that the future is

:18:16.:18:21.

one of possibility. And there have been great things to celebrate here

:18:22.:18:27.

as well. I want you to know that none of that will change. World news

:18:28.:18:31.

is dedicated to what informs you and we always hope it will help make

:18:32.:18:36.

your life better. And on a personal note, as I said, I'm not going far.

:18:37.:18:41.

Just down the hall and up the stairs. Already, I'm at work once

:18:42.:18:44.

some of the stories that take you some of the stories that take you

:18:45.:18:49.

into the real lives of those around us. And starting next week, the

:18:50.:18:54.

anchor and managing editor David Muir will be right here. He is my

:18:55.:18:59.

friend and you are in strong and steady hands. One last time, it is

:19:00.:19:03.

good to know that you are watching tonight. To Michael, the four

:19:04.:19:09.

grandchildren and their perfect parents, I look forward to being

:19:10.:19:12.

:19:13.:19:18.

I thank you. I will see you right back here on ABC World News very

:19:19.:19:35.

soon. Some rain for the small hours of the morning but it is mostly

:19:36.:19:41.

light and patchy. Good spells of sunshine are developing but there

:19:42.:19:44.

will also be some showers around by the

:19:45.:19:46.
