Where to watch Fourth of July fireworks: Livestream, TV channels, more

Happy Fourth of July and Independence Day! It is going to be a busy holiday weekend as a record 72.2 million Americans are expected to travel between Saturday, June 28, and Sunday, July 6, according to AAA (American Automobile Association), a 2.4% increase from last year. While rain and potential thunderstorms are in store for Americans in several states, there is good news: About two-thirds of the country will have clear weather that'll be perfect for viewing fireworks shows on the Fourth, according to AccuWeather forecasters. The origins of the national holiday date back to July 4, 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was signed. However, the annual observation of the holiday only became a regular occurrence after the War of 1812, when events such as groundbreaking ceremonies for the Erie Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were scheduled to coincide with Fourth of July festivities, according to the Library of Congress. By the 1870s, Independence Day had become the most important nonreligious holiday for many Americans, and on June 28, 1870, Congress passed a law making Independence Day a federal holiday. As the nation prepares to celebrate Independence Day, here is what to know about the Fourth of July celebrations and how to watch on TV and streaming.

CNN anchor says Iranians chanting death to America are 'FRIENDLY'

A CNN anchor has said Iranian people chanting 'death to America' have also shown 'friendliness' towards US reporters in the region. Erin Burnett made the comment about her time in Tehran 'years ago' while speaking with her colleague Dana Bash on Inside Politics. 'I remember, one point being in Tehran years ago and they're chanting death to America all around me - even as I say, "oh, I'm an American, reporting for CNN." 'And they were happy to speak to me, so those two sort of jarring realities of the chant and yet, the friendliness, have existed together.' A clip of Burnett making the comment was shared by conservative critics on X. Several viewers mocked the remark as delusional. 'They smiled as they murdered us,' one man jibed, adding: 'This is CNN'. 'Mostly peaceful Death Chants,' another man joked, while a third person replied with a laughing-face emoji. 'Yes, I'm always struck by the warmth of people who say they want me dead,' one woman added. A clip of Burnett making the comment was shared by conservative critics on X. Several viewers mocked the remark as delusional, as illustrated in the X posts shown above 'Are you serious CNN?' one X user questioned. 'This is what you are selling to the American people? Death to America is just a sweet nothing?' 'I don't know how to do a shake my head emoji on this thread,' another amazed viewer commented. It comes after Burnett appeared dismayed by the news that Israel and Iran had agreed to a ceasefire, as she reacted to the update live on air. The ceasefire was broken by Iran hours later, and Israel responded by firing back, sparking fury from Donald Trump who cursed both countries on live television. Burnett, reporting on the conflict live from the United Arab Emirates, adamantly denied reports of a ceasefire at the start of her show Erin Burnett OutFront. But her coverage was challenged when Political and Global Affairs analyst Barack Ravid appeared on the program to provide an update about the conflict. Ravid, citing President Trump, revealed the two countries had reached a ceasefire agreement that was brokered by the US and Qatar. He said Tehran contacted the White House, through Qatari officials, after bombing the US military base in Al Udeid to say they would not take any further action. The US, which dropped missiles on three key Iranian nuclear sites Sunday, responded by offering the opportunity to talk and negotiate a deal, Ravid explained. 'In the hours since then, there were talks between the US and Israel and Qatar and Iran to tie the final knots and agree on the final conditions of this ceasefire,' he said. Burnett, however, refused to admit defeat and, sporting a grimace on her face, dismissed Ravid's 'very significant developments' and instead referred to reporting by her colleague Fred Pleitgen where 'explosions' were heard in Tehran. Ravid, during his appearance on Burnett's show, revealed that the US and Qatar had been in 'close touch before US entered this war'. He revealed officials from both countries met one day before the war started to discuss 'possibility of the US joining this war'. Those conversations 'continued all along the last three days and today when after the Iranian attack on the Al Udeid base', he added. 'This ceasefire has been mediated and, according to President Trump, also achieved through mediation of Qatar and the United States,' Ravid told Burnett, who displayed a deadpan expression. 'Iranian officials sent the message to the White House through the Qataris saying "we're done. This is our response, we're not going to do anything further." 'The White House sent the message back through the Qataris: "We are not, if you are done, we are not going to retaliate and we want to talk. We want now to get a deal." 'In the hours since then, there were talks between the US and Israel and Qatar and Iran to tie the final knots and agree on the final conditions of this ceasefire,' he said. Burnett's face dropped in apparent disappointment, before she quickly redirected the conversation. 'Alright, and obviously all very significant developments,' she said, directing her remarks at her colleague International correspondent Paula Hancocks, who joined Burnett for the live shot in the UAE. She added: 'Paula, of course, all happening, as Barack is laying out, over several hours. We have not yet heard from the Israelis or the Iranians, literally what we are hearing actually is explosions in Tehran right now that Fred is reporting.' President Trump unleashed on CNN, MSNBC and several other TV networks Tuesday morning for suggesting the US strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites didn't kill Tehran's nuclear program. 'I think it has been completely demolished,' Trump said, speaking to reporters outside the White House early Tuesday morning as he departed for the NATO Summit in the Hague. He added the pilots did an 'unbelievable job.' 'And you know the fake news, CNN in particular, they're trying to say, "Well, I agree that it was destroyed but maybe not that destroyed." You know what they're doing? They're really hurting great pilots that put their lives on the line,' Trump said. 'CNN is scum and so is MSDNC ... and frankly the networks aren't much better,' Trump continued. 'That place is under rock. That place is demolished,' the president said of the Iranian nuclear installment Fordow, the main target of Saturday's strike. 'The B-2 pilots did their job. They did it better than anybody could even imagine.' 'It was dark with no moon and they hit their target with every one of those things and that place is gone,' Trump continued. 'But when I see CNN all night long, they're trying to say, "maybe it wasn't really as demolished as we thought." 'That place was gone,' Trump insisted. 'I think CNN ought to apologize to the pilots of the B-2s, I think MSDNC ought to apologize. I think these guys, these networks, cable networks, are real losers. They really are. They're real losers.'
