  1. 0:15Trump says Ohio gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy was treated unfairly over an ad involving opponent Amy Acton.
  2. 1:08Obama campaigns in Atlanta and jokes about Trump's White House renovations.
  3. 3:40Milwaukee's World Series victory is recapped, with comments from Brewers manager Pat Murphy.
  4. 4:34Dan Williams explains Israel's deadlocked election results involving Benjamin Netanyahu and Gadi Eisenkot.
  5. 6:26Microsoft's strong cloud revenue contrasts with Alphabet's disappointing search revenue.

Donald Trump's defense of Vivek Ramaswamy leads a Bloomberg News Now bulletin that moves from Ohio's governor campaign to Barack Obama's rally appearance in Atlanta, then on to international elections and technology earnings.

Anchors Nathan Hager and Karen Moscow open with Trump saying Ramaswamy was treated unfairly over a controversial political ad involving his opponent, Amy Acton. The upload's title calls it an "Action Ad," although the candidate's surname is Acton.

This is an audio-led news roundup, illustrated with photographs and graphics, rather than an extended Trump speech or an interview with Ramaswamy. Obama's campaign appearance follows, including his jokes about Trump's White House renovations.

The bulletin has attracted an unusually large audience for Bloomberg Podcasts: its views were already far above the channel's usual full-day audience for regular videos. Separate uploads about Alphabet's share-price plunge and doubts surrounding the AI trade also had unusually strong starts.

The roundup eventually reaches that business story, with a useful distinction from Ed Ludlow: Google's search queries were growing strongly, but search revenue still missed Wall Street's expectations.
