DETAILED WHAT THE TWO CITIES GET:
00:12:26
$ 5 BILLION IN INVESTMENTS, AND 50, 000 JOBS, EACH EARNING AN AVERAGE OF $ 150, 000 A YEAR. JAY CARNEY IS AMAZON'S SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT. >> WE NEED A LOT OF TECH EMPLOYEES, SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS, COMPUTER SCIENTISTS, ENGINEERS, AND BOTH CITIES HAVE AVAILABLE TALENT LOCALLY. >> Reporter: THE NEWS ENDED A GRAND, 14- MONTH MARKETING CAMPAIGN THAT INSPIRED 238 CITIES TO GO TO ENORMOUS LENGTHS TO WIN THE PRIZE, SOME OF IT BORDERING ON THE ABSURD. THE MAYOR OF KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, WROTE 1, 000 AMAZON PRODUCT REVIEWS AND POSTED A VIDEO OF HIMSELF DOING IT. BUT AMAZON MAY BE THE BIGGEST WINNER, GETTING MORE THAN $ 2 BILLION IN TAX GIVEAWAYS, AS WELL AS A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF MARKETING DATA THAT THE 20 FINALISTS HANDED OVER, ALL OF WHICH GIVES THE ONLINE RETAIL GIANT A LEG UP ON ITS MARKETING, SHIPPING, AND LOGISTICS DECISIONS. THE CITIES CLEARLY BELIEVE AMAZON WILL HELP THEM, BUT IF THE EXPERIENCE OF ITS HOME HEADQUARTERS OF SEATTLE IS ANY INDICATOR, THE RELATIONSHIP COULD BE ROCKY. AMAZON HAS BEEN BLAMED FOR SEATTLE'S STAGNANT WAGES AND LACK OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING, AND THAT HAS RESIDENTS, LIKE NEW YORK'S JONATHAN WESTIN, CONCERNED. >> WE DON'T NEED TO RECRUIT BUSINESSES TO COME HERE. THERE'S LOTS OF BUSINESSES THAT ARE COMING HERE WITHOUT ANY SUBSIDIES, WITHOUT ANY TAX BREAKS, WITHOUT ANYTHING. >> Glor: AGAIN, A MINOR INDICATION THAT AMAZON HAD SOME LEVERAGE HERE, NICK. YOU HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS PROCESS FOR 14 MONTHS. ARE YOU SURPRISED BY THE PICKS? >> Reporter: NO, I'M NOT SURPRISED. BUT I HAD STILL BEEN HOPEFUL THAT IT WOULD GO TO A RED STATE. THERE IS TOO MUCH TECH CONCENTRATED IN TOO FEW CITIES ON THE COASTS, AND THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY. >> Glor: THE BAY AREA NOW, AND NEW YORK, AND D. C. AND DID AMAZON GET THE BETTER END OF THESE DEALS? >> Reporter: IT'S AMAZON-- THEY'RE RELENTLESS, THEY'RE RUTHLESS, THEY'RE SO SMART, THEY ALWAYS GET THE BETTER END OF THE DEAL, AND, YES, THEY WON AGAIN TODAY. >> Glor: ALL RIGHT, WE'LL WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. NICK, THANKS VERY MUCH. >> Reporter: THANK YOU. >> Glor: COMING UP HERE ON THE " CBS EVENING NEWS ," WHY THE DOMINANT MAKER OF E- CIGARETTES IS TAKING SOME OF ITS MOST POPULAR PRODUCTS OUT OF STORES. >> Glor: IT IS THE DOMINANT MAKER OF E- CIGARETTES, AND IT'S PULLING SOME OF ITS MOST POPULAR PRODUCTS FROM STORES. WE ARE TALKING HERE ABOUT JUUL, AND AS ANNA WERNER REPORTS, THIS MAY HAVE BEEN A PREEMPTIVE STRIKE, BEFORE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT COULD ACT. >> Reporter: E- CIGARETTES FROM JUUL LABS, INTRODUCED IN 2015, COMMAND 75 % OF THE MARKET, AND THEY'VE BECOME HUGELY POPULAR WITH TEENS. TODAY'S ANNOUNCEMENT COMES AS THE F. D. A. IS PRESSURING THE COMPANY TO REVERSE THAT TREND. JUUL ANNOUNCED IT IS TEMPORARILY SUSPENDING ALL RETAIL STORE SALES OF FOUR E- CIGARETTE FLAVORS THAT MANGO, CUCUMBER, CREME, AND FRUIT-- AND WILL SELL THEM ONLINE ONLY. IN A STATEMENT, JUUL'S C. E. O. KEVIN BURNS SAYS " THE NUMBERS TELL US UNDER- AGED USE OF E- CIGARETTE PRODUCTS IS A PROBLEM. WE MUST SOLVE IT ." VAPE STORE OWNERS WE TALKED TO AREN'T PLEASED. >> MANGO IS THE TOP- SELLING FLAVOR FOR JUUL. IT'S GOING TO PROBABLY BRING DOWN SALES A BIT. >> Reporter: THE F. D. A. CALLS TEEN VAPING AN EPIDEMIC. PRELIMINARY GOVERNMENT DATA SHOWS IN 2017, MORE THAN THREE MILLION MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS REPORTED USING E- CIGARETTES. COMMISSIONER SCOTT GOTTLIEB IS EXPECTED TO ANNOUNCE A BAN ON SALES OF MOST FLAVORED E- CIGARETTES AT CONVENIENCE STORES AND GAS STATIONS IN THE COMING DAYS. BUT MEREDITH BERKMAN, WITH AN ANTI- VAPING GROUP, WANTS A BAN ON FLAVORS EVERYWHERE. >> WE JUST WANT THEM TO BAN THE FLAVORS, BECAUSE THE EVIDENCE SHOWS THAT FLAVORS HOOK KIDS. >> Reporter: WELL, JUUL PLANS TO RESUME RETAIL SALES OF THOSE FLAVORS IN THE FUTURE, BUT ONLY FOR STORES THAT USE AGE VERIFICATION PROTOCOLS. IT'S ALSO SHUTTING DOWN ITS SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS, BUT JEFF, THE CAMPAIGN FOR TOBACCO- FREE KIDS SAYS IT'S TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE, AND IT'S NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR COMPREHENSIVE GOVERNMENT REGULATION. >> Glor: OKAY, ANNA, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. COMING UP HERE TONIGHT, HOW EVOLUTION MAY SAVE AFRICA'S ELEPHANTS FROM RUTHLESS POACHERS. >> Glor: THE F. B. I. SAID TODAY, FOR THE THIRD STRAIGHT YEAR, THERE'S BEEN A SPIKE IN HATE CRIMES-- MORE THAN 7, 000 REPORTED IN THE U. S. LAST YEAR. THAT IS A 17 % INCREASE. ANTI- JEWISH HATE CRIMES WERE UP 37 %. TWO YEARS AFTER THE EXECUTION- STYLE MURDERS OF EIGHT FAMILY MEMBERS IN RURAL OHIO, AUTHORITIES TODAY ANNOUNCED A BREAKTHROUGH. FOUR PEOPLE-- A HUSBAND, WIFE, AND THEIR TWO ADULT SONS-- WERE CHARGED IN THE KILLINGS. OHIO'S ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS IT MAY HAVE INVOLVED A CUSTODY DISPUTE. EVOLUTION MAY BE THE BEST DEFENSE FOR AFRICAN ELEPHANTS WHO ARE INCREASINGLY SLAUGHTERED FOR THEIR IVORY TUSKS. ACCORDING TO " NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ," RESEARCH SHOWS THE TUSKS ON MALE ELEPHANTS ARE SHRINKING, MAKING THEM LESS ATTRACTIVE TO POACHERS. AND FEMALES BORN WITHOUT TUSKS ARE SURVIVING IN GREATER NUMBERS, PASSING THAT TRAIT TO THEIR DAUGHTERS. UP NEXT HERE TONIGHT, BROTHERS GOING THE DISTANCE TOGETHER. >> Glor: WE END HERE TONIGHT WITH AN UNBREAKABLE BROTHERLY BOND. HERE'S MARK STRASSMANN. >> Reporter: THIS IS, IN EVERY SENSE, A REAL PARTNERSHIP. >> ALL THE WAY. >> Reporter: IN EVERY WAY, BRENT AND KYLE PEASE'S BROTHERLY BOND HAS GONE THE DISTANCE. THEY RACE AS A TEAM IN IRONMAN COMPETITIONS-- YOU KNOW, THOSE GRUELING SWIM- BIKE- RUN EVENTS THAT COVER 140. 6 MILES. WHAT ABOUT YOU, ARE YOU A COMPETITIVE GUY? >> OH YEAH. >> Reporter: KYLE HAS CEREBRAL PALSY-- NO USE OF HIS ARMS OR LEGS. >> FROM THE EARLIEST AGE, I WANTED KYLE TO BE INCLUDED IN WHATEVER WE DID. SO IT'S LIKE, OKAY, LET'S JUST FIGURE THIS OUT. >> Reporter: HE ALWAYS LOOK OUT FOR YOU? >> HE WAS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME. MAYBE A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH AT TIMES, BECAUSE I'M VERY INDEPENDENT. >> Reporter: GOOD BIG BROTHER. >> GREAT BIG BROTHER. >> Reporter: KYLE GOT THE IDEA WATCHING BRENT RACE IN HIS FIRST IRONMAN IN 2010. THEY FOUND THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT, STARTED TRAINING, AND MADE IT HAPPEN FOR KYLE, JUST AS WHEN THEY WERE KIDS. >> KYLE USES MY LEGS, AND I USE HIS SPIRIT, SO I PULL KYLE IN THE BOAT AND I PUSH THE PEDALS ON THE BIKE AND I PUSH HIM ON THE RUN. BUT THAT WHOLE TIME, KYLE HAS SPASTIC QUADRAPLEGIA, SO HIS BODY IS FIGHTING ITSELF. >> Reporter: THEIR FIRST IRONMAN-- MADISON, WISCONSIN, IN 2013-- IT TOOK THEM 15 HOURS TO FINISH. >> THE MOST COMPETITIVE ATHLETE IN OUR HOUSE IS KYLE, BECAUSE HE'S BEEN COMPETING TO BE JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE HIS WHOLE LIFE. >> Reporter: LAST MONTH IN KONA, HAWAII, THE PEASE BROTHERS COMPETED IN THEIR FOURTH IRONMAN, THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP. (\ APPLAUSE \) THEY FINISHED AFTER ALMOST 14. 5 HOURS, MORE THAN SIX HOURS BEHIND THE MEN'S WINNER. BUT AS ALWAYS, BROTHERS FIRST. >> WHAT I KNEW IN MY HEART IS THAT I WANTED TO BECOME AN ATHLETE, AND TO BECOME AN ATHLETE WITH MY BROTHER IS SO MUCH SWEETER. >> Reporter: MARK STRASSMANN, CBS NEWS, ATLANTA. >> Glor: BROTHERS FIRST. THAT IS THE " CBS EVENING NEWS" FOR TONIGHT. I'M JEFF GLOR. WE'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW. GOOD NIGHT.
