Elehear Delight Hearing Aids Review: Good Fit, Poor Sound
Even moderate volume settings led to blunt, distorted, and often painful amplification. App is clunky at best. "Delight" is a bold choice of name for any type of tech product, but it's especially ambitious in the world of hearing aids, where "begrudgingly tolerate" is the highest praise typically offered. Undaunted, Elehear's latest over-the-counter release aims to raise the bar on user satisfaction, featuring a major design change and leveraging a new AI algorithm (naturally) to improve noise reduction and reduce feedback. Designed as in-the-ear devices with discretion in mind, the Delight cuts a much different profile than the more traditional, behind-the-ear Beyond Pro and Beyond hearing aids. The big question: Can they perform as well as BTE offerings?

'The Five' on Biden's COVID 'debacle,' Amazon's Alexa troubles
'The Five' panel react to an Amazon Alexa instructing a child to stick a penny in an electrical outlet. This is a rush transcript from "The Five," December 30, 2021. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated. It's five o'clock in New York City, and this is The Five. The White House desperately trying to clean up President Biden's COVID debacle. As America hits a record number of new cases, the commander-in- chief failing to live up to his promise to shut down the virus as people wait hours in lines while states struggle with testing shortages. The president still has not signed the contract to send Americans millions of at-home tests, and he is bragging about a new test making facility that won't even be ready until -- listen to this -- 2024. And so much for following the science, the CDC is now cutting isolation period for people with COVID in half. But not to make us safer. ANTHONY FAUCI, DIRECTOR, NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES: The reason is that now that we have such an overwhelming volume of cases coming in, many of which are without symptoms, there is the danger that this is going to have a really negative impact on our ability to really get society to function properly. So, the CDC made a decision to balance what is good for public health at the same time as keeping the society running. ROCHELLE WALENSKY, DIRECTOR, CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL: It really had a lot to do with what we thought people would be able to tolerate. We really want to make sure that we have guidance in this moment where we were going to have a lot of disease that could be adhered to, that people were willing to adhere to and that spoke specifically to when people were maximally infectious. So, it really spoke to both behaviors as well as what people were able to do. MCENANY (on camera): President Biden is also being accused of sabotaging a key, life-saving treatment. Florida surgeon general claims the Biden administration has been, quote, "actively preventing monoclonal antibody treatments as states are running out of that therapeutic." Republicans are not happy about it. DAN CRENSHAW (R-TX): In Texas, we are one of those states that doesn't have these monoclonal antibodies anymore. We have been complaining to the administration about how these formulas are distributed.

Drama at 'The View': COVID tests were 'false positives,' co-host reveals
The'Outnumbered' panel reacts to Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro being pulled from the set moments before the vice president was set to arrive Ana Navarro, one of two co-hosts who were pulled from ABC's "The View" live on air Friday due to positive COVID-19 tests, has since revealed the results that caused the chaos were false positives. Producers informed Navarro and Sunny Hostin in their earpieces halfway through Friday's broadcast that they would have to leave the Hot Topics table, leaving Joy Behar and Sara Haines to conduct the rest of the show on their own. The remaining hosts often struggled to kill time, at one point taking questions from the audience, but often not being able to hear the questions that were muffled by their masks. Friday's drama was even more pronounced considering Navarro and Hostin were pulled just as Vice President Kamala Harris was on her way to the studio for an in-person interview. Even though Harris made it to the building, producers explained her appearance would end up taking place remotely from a separate room out of precaution.
