 “Up Close” is a politics podcast from the No. 1 TV station in the United States, WABC-TV. Hosted by Eyewitness News veteran anchor Bill Ritter, Up Close gets to the heart of the matter, whether it’s about how things are working in government - or how they’re not working. It shows you how public-policy decisions are made. This Eyewitness News podcast goes beyond the headlines and underneath the surface of politics. Sound bites don’t do that – conversation does. Our guests – varied and diverse - are from both sides of the aisle. In addition to full episodes of Up Close, I'm going to be sharing extra content -- interviews, perspective, news digests and more.Copyright 2025, The Walt Disney Company. All rights reserved.

    Addressing ongoing travel woes and issues at Newark Liberty International Airport
    May 11 2025
    On this edition of Up Close, we examine the ongoing issues impacting travel and operations at one of the nation's busiest airports in the Tri-State area. It's been two weeks of travel woes at Newark Liberty International Airport, and now there's concerns that the chaos could continue well into the summer season. Old technology and a shortage of air traffic controllers are just some of the big issues involved. So, will the new plan by President Donald Trump's transportation department fix the problem anytime soon? And how concerned should people be about flying in and out of Newark and other airports? We speak with ABC aviation expert John Vance about the recent events. Meanwhile, Steve Fulop, the mayor of Jersey City for 12 years, is running for a new job: governor of New Jersey. We speak with the mayor about issues facing the Garden State and how he plans to fix them if he wins the primary. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    New York City Mayor Eric Adams is running for a second term despite a bucket of legal problems, now gone thanks to President Donald Trump. This week, the mayor unveils what he calls the best budget ever. The $115 billion plan includes more New York police officers, free after school programs for all kids and a lot more. On this edition of Up Close, Bill Ritter talks to Mayor Adams about the budget, the race for mayor, the issues confronting the city and how he's getting along with President Trump. Meanwhile, the new chancellor of New York City schools, for her first time on Up Close, offers insight on how she plans to continue to build the country's biggest and most expensive public school system -- from continuing to increase the percentage of graduates, to getting students ready for college and for dealing with cellphones in the classroom. We have our first interview with the chancellor and veteran school expert, Melissa Aviles-Ramos. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
