There are no balloons or marching band but i felt very welcome when i came into the building. Security guy just goes, hey, gayle. Happy new year. Happy new year. I know, but when we have so much to catch up on. Theres a lot to discuss, isnt there . I know. I feel like theres a new day on the horizon. I think its a new day on the horizon in a lot of places. We begin with this as you wake up in the west. The breaking news in Southern California where rescues are under way in the wake of flooding rains and mudslides. Heavy downpours right now are swamping areas recently burned by wildfires. Dramatic video captures a huge fireball when a gas line erupted in flames following a transformer explosion in monteci montecito. Flood watches, posted across the state. Flash flood warnings in effect for parts of Santa Barbara counties. Areas affected by last months historic thomas fire. Carter evans is there with the unfolding emergency. Carter, good morning. Reporter good morning. This is one of several roads cut off by a mud and debris flow here. Its about a foot deep. Theres no chance any car can get through this. The problem is, this debris flow goes right across the busy 101 freeway at rush hour. You see some cars parked there. They have been parked there for hours. The question now is when are they going to get that reopened. Along with the other four freeways that are closed. In some places, the mud and debris is up to three feet deep. The first storm of 2018 is leading to flash flood watches across Southern California. Mudslide conditions are so dangerous officials ordered mandatory evacuations of burn areas even before the rain began. Its always worrisome. Mud is definitely something you have no control over. Reporter some, whose homes survived the thomas fire, now face the threat of not just water and mud but debris left behind in the fires aftermath. All those fires that already burned all the way down, thats all toxic too. Reporter because Southern Californias burn area is so vast, the danger of mudslides spreads from Santa Barbara to duarte, an expanse of about 100 miles. When we have the potential for widespread debris flow that could impact the same community and the same neighborhoods that were impacted by wildfire, we do have to be aware and prepare to evacuate a lot of residents in a short amount of time. Reporter its only been raining heavily for let me try that again. Raining off and on for the last couple of hours, sometimes quite heavily. It is expected to come up all day. As the sun comes up, theyll start assessing the damage and brace for more rain. Carter, thank you. The first direct talks between north and south korea in more than two years appear to be paying off. North korea diplomats walked across the border overnight to meet their counterparts from the south in the demilitarized zone. They quickly announced that north korea will send athletes to the Winter Olympics, opening one month from today in south korea. Officials say theyre also laying the groundwork for possible talks on north Koreas Nuclear Weapons Program. Ben tracy is in seoul, south korea, about 30 miles south of the dmz, where the talks lasted much of the day. Ben, good morning. Reporter good morning. These two sides talked for more than three hour, which is a fairly stunning turn of events when you think the south is trying to engage the north for months. Kim jonguns regime did not seem interested. Now theyre making progress except on the Biggest Issue of all. This scene seemed unthinkable just weeks ago. Five men from the south, five from the north, shaking hands. Dire warnings of war replaced with diplomatic warmth. The North Koreans said they are serious and sincere, offering what they called invaluable results. They could afford the optimism because the conversation was not about kim jonguns Nuclear Program. Instead, focusing mainly on north koreas attendance at next months Winter Olympics. The north quickly offered to send a highlevel delegation, including athletes, a cheering squad and performing arts groups. The south asked the two countries march together at the opening and closing ceremonies and resume reunions of families separated during the korean war. North korea coming to the winter games is a big win for south korean president moon jaein who has called them the peace olympics. In and of itself, the olympics is not going to solve anything. Reporter john delury is an expert on korean affairs. He says kim jongun may feel confident enough in his Weapons Program to now engage in diplomacy. Do you see these talks going beyond the olympics to something more substantial . This is a very fragile process but im seeing a lot of political will in pyongyang and here in seoul that the two sides want to make this a very different year, that theyre serious about dialogue, and that really theyre talking about more than the Winter Olympics but they have to take this step by step. Reporter the two sides have agreed to reopen a long dormant military hot line. Were also told the south koreans want further talks. They want to talk about north Koreas Nuclear weapons. Were told the north didnt really respond to that but that he this wewas listening careful. Thank you so much. President trump greeted College Football fans in atlanta before last nights title game. His appearance on the field for the National Anthem followed weeks of the president criticizing the nfl for allowing pregame protests. Earlier in nashville, he touted his recent tax reform victory. Margaret brennan is at the white house. Margaret, good morning. Wow, look at the fog out there. Where are the werewolves . Reporter exactly. Well, good morning to you, norah. The president certainly would like to clear the air here in washington. He spent yesterday deep in trump country. And in tennessee, he gave his first policy speech in more than three weeks. Hes trying to put to rest some of those damaging comments made by officials in a recent book about him. O say can you see reporter whether it was singing the National Anthem at the College Football championship game in georgia. I like you, too. I like you, too, tennessee. Reporter or basking in the warmth of an adoring crowd of Tennessee Farmers hours earlier. Oh, are you happy you voted for me. You are so lucky that i gave you that privilege. Reporter President Trump enjoyed a brief respite from the continuing firestorm over Michael Wolffs fire and fury. The intensely critical book on the Trump White House has soured relations between the president and his former chief strategist steve bannon. In the book, already a bestseller, bannon called donald trump jr. s 2016 meeting with russians treasonous. Said ivanka trump was dumb as a brick. And accused her husband Jared Kushner of financial crimes. White house spokesman hogan gidley told reporters on air force one the attacks on the first family were repugnant and grotesque. I dont think theres a way back at this point. Reporter the trump attorney had tried to force fire and fury publisher henry holt to stop the release of the book last week. The ceo of mack milan, holts parent company, released a memo to staff, calling the move flagrantly understa flagrantly unconstitutional. The people in the white house are like everybody else in the country. Whats going to happen here . Reporter author Michael Wolff told cbs this morning that some members of President Trumps inner circle are so concerned about the president s mental acukucuity that they quen whether to take extraordinary measures to remove him from office, a claim that white house officials flatly deny. Now, here at the white house, President Trump will host a Bipartisan Group of senators today to discuss Immigration Reform and its going to be an uphill battle. He is asking for any kind of immigration deal to include funding for that border wall with mexico. And, gayle, the price tag right now is 18 billion. Wow, thank you, margaret. Norahs right it does look like a movie set. There is somebody with a yellow vest walking behind you. He looks safe. Thank you very much. The Trump Administration says its time to end special protection for about 200,000 immigrants for el salvador. Many will face deportation if they do not leave the u. S. By september of next year. They were given temporary status after a deadly 2001 earthquake in that Central American country. The department of Homeland Security says life in el salvador has improved and, quote, the original conditions no longer exist. At the same time, the state Department Warns u. S. Citizens to consider the risk of travel because el salvador has one of the highest homicide levels in the world. Speculation is growing this morning that Oprah Winfrey may challenge the president in 2020. After her rousing speech at sundays Golden Globes. She is still making headlines across the country this morning. Ivanka trump praised the 60 minutes special contributor on twitter, calling her address empowering. Norah and i have several questions for gayle about all of this. Well get to that in just a moment. First, jan crawford looks at how both democrats and republicans are weighing in. Jan, good morning. Good morning, jeff. Winfreys longtime partner Stedman Graham started all this when he told the l. A. Times on sunday that she would absolutely run, but ultimately it was up to the people. Since then, people on both sides of the aisle have weighed in. I, for one, would love to hear that the state of the union is strooong reporter from latenight television. Give a lot of stuff away. You get Health Insurance you get Health Insurance reporter to washington. I think shes a real leader and i think her voice is powerful. Reporter even across party lines. Id like to sit down with her and help her if i could. You want to run, you ought to run. Reporter Oprah Winfreys speech at sunday nights Golden Globes kicked off a whirlwind of speculation. A new day is on the horizon reporter its not the first time her name has been linked to president ial politics. Oprah, i love oprah, oprah would always be my first choice. Reporter nearly 20 years ago, it was donald trump who floated the idea of oprah as vp. I tell you, shes really a great woman. Shes a terrific woman. Reporter and he praised her as recently as 2015. Shes great. Shes talented. Shes a friend of mine. Shes a good person. Reporter but on monday, the idea of winfrey as an opponent had a white house spokesperson saying simply we welcome the challenge. Some fellow republicans agreed. I think no one commands the kind of attention that oprah commands. Reporter bill burton worked for then senator obama when winfreys endorsement helped propel him to the 2008 democratic nomination. Im here to tell you, iowa, he is the one. She is going to have to build a campaign. Shes going to have to take on what will likely be a large diversion talented field of democratic candidates. Reporter winfrey has said trumps election may have changed the equation. I thought, oh, gee, i dont have the experience. I dont know enough. I dont know. Now im thinking, oh. Reporter a few months later on cbs this morning she appeared to shut the door. You can be safe with that. There will be no running for office of any kind for me. Reporter now, that interview back in october was just one of many times that winfrey has insisted that she has no interest in running for president. In fact, gayle has even said she would bet her firstborn child that oprah would never run. So, gayle. Stop talking, jan. Just stop it, jan. My first born daughter, as you know, favorite daughter kirby, she went, hey, mom, dont do it. It is a very interesting conversation. First and second born children . Yes, yes. I thought thats what it was. Thats right. What about what stedman said . I do think thats interesting because stedman says that he thought the reporter said to him would she make a good president and he said absolutely, she would. Thats how he interpreted the question. Because this is the thing. Stedman would never so cavalierly say absolutely she would do it. Its up to the people. He would never do that. I got emails from people yesterday. I got emails from people yesterday that said is stedman being strategic or supportive. He is nothing but supportive. He would never just throw it out there like that. What were you going to say . Im going to ask you the same tough question i ask guests on the show. In fact, stead man did say, she would absolutely do it, its up to the people. Thats what he said. He did say it is up to the people. But im telling you, his interpretation of the question was he thought the reporter was saying would she be a good president. Okay, is she considering it . No, i absolutely dont think her position has changed. I dont. You know, i was up talking to her very late last night. I do think this, though, guys. I do think shes intrigued by the idea. I do think that. I also know that after years of watching the oprah show you always have the right to change your mind. I dont think at this point shes actually considering it. But listen there are people who said they want to be her campaign manager, who want to quit their jobs and campaign for her. She loves this country. And would like to be of service in some way. But i dont think that she is actively for the record, that is i dont think shes actively considering it at this time. Thats a change we heard from october its not a change from her. Its a change from me. Fair enough. So let me ask you, who wrote the speech . Listen, oprah crafted that speech. She knew how she wanted to start. This was the thing for her. She knew exactly what she wanted to say and she knew how she wanted to say it. She crafted the speech. She talked to an editor at the magazine. And the two of them came up with it. But oprah put down exactly what she wanted to say. Those were all her words. You know, listen, she writes her what i know for sure column every week, every month in the magazine. Shes a very good writer. We all know shes a very good talker. And so i think that it was a home run on many levels. I thought being in that room, i will say this, being in that room was electrifying. It was the right person giving the right speech at the right time. She wanted that moment to be more than women wearing black dresses of solidarity. She really did want to speak to young girls around the country. She really did want to say enough already. I think she delivered on all that. In a very eloquent way. Will she run for president . I think its a very intriguing idea. Myself. If someone were to potentially run for president what do you think their time line might be . I dont know, jeff, im just looking at this. Yes, she can, noprah. I dont think theres such a thing as a time line. Im not trying to be cute here or be mysterious. But i do think its a very intriguing thing. That she had never considered. People said, owe, yeh, yeah, she that speech as a launching pad. Thats not true. She worked on it. She practiced it. I was a practice ought yeaudien member. I knew the speech was going to be powerful. Before when she was there at rehearsal, they told her she had to cut three minutes out of it because it was six minutes long. They said you have to cut it to three minutes. Oprah said if it was any other night than this one, i can do that, but i dont plan on cutting it. As it turned out with all the applause it went nine minutes. I think they were very i think the producers thought, you know, that was worth going late for. Wow. Well, im flat glad to have you. Im glad to be back. No matter what happen, i will be at cbs this morning. A nationwide shortage of investment bags forcing some hospitals to take extraordinary measures.

The aide says it was surgically removed and did not spread beyond the prostate. Sources tell cbs news they expect romney to run for u. S. Senate. Orrin hatch is retiring and his seat will be up for grabs in november. And the first same sex marriages in australia took place at midnight local time. Marriage equality became law in december.

The parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of same sex marriage after a nationwide survey. The flu season is straining resources at hospitals nationwide. The centers for Disease Control and prevention reports the flu is widespread in 46 different states. Some hospitals are setting up emergency tents to handle the high volume of patients. Others are dealing with a shortage of iv bags after Hurricane Maria cut power to manufacturing plants in puerto rico. Michelle miller is at Massachusetts General Hospital in boston where staff is trying to cope with a shortage in what some think is an unusual way. Michelle, good morning. Reporter good morning. If you have ever been inside a hospital, an iv bag is a familiar sight to you. It holds the life saving fluids and medicines delivered through iv. Supplies of this very necessary hospital staple are dwindling and doctors and nurses are racing to find other ways to care for their patients. Im going to give you that gatorade now. Reporter in the intensive care unit at Massachusetts General Hospital, this nurse uses gatorade to combat dehydration. It now takes her four times as long to add min centre treatment that would normally be delivered intravenenously. Hospital staff are forced to conserve supplies. As the nurse we look at our patients and see if there is any possible way to give a fluid, electrolyte, a medication in any way other than in an iv fluid. Reporter the shortage is widespread. 3,000 miles away in san diego. Ben boyers wife is undergoing chemotherapy for a brain tumor. These nurses work so hard. It worries me that they dont have everything they could possibly need at their disposal. Reporter boyer says they became aware of the shortage after christmas during one of her treatments. Suddenly this nurse who looks after several patients has to stand there for half an hour slowly pumping in these premeds. You think this is brutal. This guy should probably be helping other parents. Patients. Reporter when Hurricane Maria slammed into puerto rico last september it forced the temporary shutdown of baxters manufacturing plants. Baxter makes up more than 43 of the United States iv solution market. The company told cbs news they produce tens of millions of sterile iv solutions every year. Owens traveled to puerto rico to help with marias relief effort but is dumbfounded by the storms impact back home. Not until this happened did we realize how many things is being produced there and how it is affecting the whole countrys medical system. Reporter puerto rico is a hub for medical pharmaceuticals. The island produces 40 billion for the u. S. A year. This is a nationwide problem which is part of what makes it so hard is that we cant borrow from any other hospital. Reporter he worries about the low supply of iv bags during the peak flu season. If we had a very severe flu season start to develop in the next weeks and months, that could push us over the edge. Reporter now, Baxter Pharmaceuticals tells cbs news that production is back on line since the restoration of puerto ricos power grid. The fda believes that things will get better in coming weeks but consider this, jeff. They are dealing with a 3 month long backlog. Wow. Hard to believe. Michelle, thank you very much. Retail giant h m is apologizing for a photo on its website that critics call racist. The image showed a black boy wearing a sweatshirt with the words coolest monkey many the jungle.

He tweeted yesterday, woke up shocked and embarrassed by this photo. I will not be working with h and m anymore. The company said we are deeply sorry that the picture was taken. It is obvious our routines have not been followed properly. Well investigate how this happened to prevent this type of mistake again. It certainly is offensive. Its you wonder who is in the room when they make this decision because you have to go through many steps before an ad makes a nationwide appearance. I dont understand how this happens in 2018. I dont get it. Im glad its down. Yeah. They are apologizing profusely. A growing number of people are choosing to drink water straight from the spring. Ahead, a look at the Raw Water Movement and why some doctors are concerned about health risks. Youre watching cbs this morning. He most ou health and so i trust nature made vitamins.

A growing number of people are dropping bottled water for natural untreated spring water or what they call raw water. More than every other drink including soda. Were in harrison maine at the source for one brand of raw water called tourmaline spring. Tony, good morning. Reporter good morning. From where im standing im not far from the original source of Poland Spring which of course has become one of the largest bottled water brands in america and while the number of bottles coming out of that spring house is tiny by comparison tourmaline spring is hoping that raw unfiltered, untreated water is both safe and the next big thing in a bottle. In this Marketing Campaign the quest for raw water is cast in a sacred light. A surge of peacefulness and energy entered my being. Reporter as we saw in this coop, the pitch is working. Empty shelves are common here where the brand live water sells for more than 16 a bottle. The company says their spring water is free of industrial toxins and reach in healthy microbes because it is not processed. Despite the exotic footage live water sources from the same monitored spring that feeds a municipal tap in oregon. Officials say water is filtered for a reason and warned untreated water may contain bacteria, viruses and parasites, no matter how clean it looks. If youre not disinfecting it then you are, you know, creating a risk for yourself or anybody you give the water to of diseases and other illnesses that can come from the water. 25 hundreds miles east in harrison, maine, tourmaline has become another source of socalled raw water. So were looking at a what here . Bedrock high altitude, high elevation, natural spring. They say their water is the purest youll ever taste in part because of its age. So how old do you think the water is that were looking at . The hydro geologist said its at least 10,000 years old. At least. Is older water better water . Yes. How pure was the earth ten thousand years ago . Man has contributed all these contaminants. In the old days you could drink out of every lake, river and stream on the planet. What do you say to somebody whos watching this and theyre laughing. Water is water, it goes in your water and thats it. People are finding out we are finding this out. Tourmaline spring is tested regularly for con tam nanttamin ensure it meets the Community Water system. This is really important because of whats not in it. Not because of whats in it. Its so incredibly naturally pure, it has to be a healing tonic. It has to be, because were water creatures. I have customers that swear by it. But they havent attracted enough believers to turn a profit. It provides 35 million gallons per year, but only one half of 1 ends up in these bottles.

In Southern California, rescues are under way. Heavy downpours right now are swamping areas recently burned by wildfires. This is one of several roads thats been cut off by a mud and debris flow. Here you can see its about a foot deep right now. The south has been trying to engage the north for months. Now theyre making progress, except on the Biggest Issue of all. The president certainly would like to clear the air. Hes trying to put to rest some of those damaging comments made by officials in a recent book about him. She started all this saying she would absolutely run, but ultimately, it was up to the people. Is she considering it . No, i absolutely dont think her position has changed. I dont. But i do think its a very intriguing thing that she had never considered, but oh, yeah, she wrote that speech as a launching pad . Thats absolutely not true. Did anybody here see last nights episode of oprah . Gave that rowsey, heartfelt speech during the golden globe awards. A new day is on the horizon, when nobody ever has to say me too again. Someone give that woman an award for winning an award. Stephen colbert. Stephen colbert so good put it in perspective. But at the end, it did feel like she took us to church, i have to say. Her tone, her whole demeanor really changed. She was tweaking that speech, guys, in the car on the way to the awards ceremony, right to the very end. She said, lets do this, lets do that. I was going to ask you, as we talked about this little bit yesterday on the phone, when you said took her to church, because people, like, stood in the middle of it. Yes, yes. And kept standing. It was like a sermon in some ways. It was a very spontaneous ovation, a very true ovation, and you could really tell that oprah was speaking from her heart when she delivered that speech on sunday night. Should we do a whole other interview now about no, no, no, no. What do you think . No. Im thinking that she is not going to be running for president. Thats what im thinking. But you say shes intrigued by the idea. I do think shes very intrigued. And i also say, as ive heard many years on the Oprah Winfrey show, you always have the slight change your mind, but thats certainly not something shes considering right now. I, on the other hand, think, wow. I agree. Wow. And a lot of people are thinking wow. A lot of people are thinking wow. So, well see. Very intrigued. Im very intrigued. Very intrigued. All right, more on that, and theres other news, too. The white house is gearing up for its next big battle in congress, Immigration Reform. A group of republican and democratic lawmakers will discuss it with President Trump this morning. They are trying to work out differences on protecting socalled d. R. E. A. M. Ers and building a wall along the mexican border. Immigration is likely to be a key issue in talks to avoid a Government Shutdown next friday. Margaret brennan is at the white house. Margaret, good morning to you. Reporter good morning. The white house has 11 days to reach a budget agreement with democrats, or at least come up with a shortterm funding plan to keep the government open and avert that january 19th shutdown. The key to a longterm agreement may lie in brokering a bipartisan immigration deal. That may be an uphill battle because republicans say democrats are holding out on an agreement with daca, the obamaera prevention of those coming to america as children from being deported. The president said he will do that but only if democrats support his Campaign Pledge to build a border wall. He says he Still Believes mexico will ultimately pay for the wall, but in the meantime, hes asking congress for 18 billion to fund it, along with related Border Security provisions. Yesterday in tennessee, mr. Trump also pledged to end a visa lottery system and shut down a program that allows immigrants to bring their family members along with them. Now, today, Vice President mike pence will be on capitol hill working this issue here. Here at the white house, the president will welcome a Bipartisan Group of lawmakers. Margaret, thank you. North korea says it will send athletes to the Winter Olympics in south korea next month. Diplomats made that deal overnight during talks in the korean demilitarized zone, the first between the two countries in more than two years. The south is asking the north to march together at the olympics opening and closing ceremonies. North Korean Leader kim jongun wants to be part of the winter games, but he has not shown any interest in negotiating over his Nuclear Program. Todays talks lasted for several hours and both sides agreed to hold future military discussions, but its unclear what else they can agree on and how the negotiations will affect the u. S. Retired admiral sandy winnefeld, cbs news military analyst is with us. He was vice chairman of the joint chiefs of staff from 2011 through 2015. Before that, he led the military command responsible for preventing air attacks on north america. Admiral, good morning. Thank you for joining us. Good morning, gayle, norah and jeff. Good to see you in the new year. Oh, good to see you, good to see you. Explain the significance of this. You know, these two nations each came to the table desperately wanting one thing in the near term. On north koreas part, they desperately wanted the legitimacy thats conferred by participating in the olympic movement. It would have been enormously humiliating for them, had the olympic spectacle been going on right across the border, and they were not participating. And it feeds their message of, you know, we may have Nuclear Weapons, but were a normal nation and should be treated like that. On the souths part, they desperately would like to have a disturbancefree games. And even more importantly, they would like to not have participating nations scale back their athletes participation out of concern for what might happen during the games. So, they each came. When you have two parties come to the table and they desperately want something for different reasons, its really easy to reach an agreement. Which leads to the question, admiral, are they just doing this now so they can have sort of a safe and happy games, and then the tension immediately returns right after . You know, negotiators are always looking for a hook. Theyre looking for something to break the ice, and there is maybe a little ray of sunshine here that this might lead to something else, but i would be very cautious about irrational exuberance here. The military exercises, for example, were postponed, canceled. We still have two leaders that like to taunt each other and we still have a north korea with a long history of manipulating negotiations like this. Now, President Trump has said that the talks would not have happened between the two countries without his tough stance. Do you think he helped contribute to this . You know, i dont want to take anything away from the administration, but i do not believe that north korea came to the table because they were intimidated or dragged to the table. They came with a very specific purpose in mind, and that is to regain some legitimacy out there in the real world, to avoid the humiliation of not participating in the games, and in the process, possibly cut in a little bit to the resolve that the International Community might have towards future sanctions. So, what do you think u. S. Officials will be looking for most closely as these two sides communicate with each other . Well, of course, everybody will be parsing every single word that is said during these negotiations. Theyll be choppy, people coming in and out of the room and the like, and people will be very interested in the responses north korea gives when asked about the potential for future negotiations regarding the Nuclear Program or other military matters. Got to be careful not to read too much into what the other side says, but that will be very, very closely examined. Admiral, when i was in south korea earlier this year and spoke with president moon, he had talked about that, he wants to sit knee to knee with kim jongun to have these bilateral talks. The concern that some experts have raised, however, is that while thats happening, though, the north will use that time to continue to build up their missile and nuclear capability. Is our intelligence good enough to know what theyre doing . Well, you know, looking into north korea is looking through a glass darklet. Its a very opaque country. Its very difficult to get intelligence there. We have known for some time, because the Intelligence Community told us, that north koreas interested in developing a strategic Nuclear Weapons program, and we reacted accordingly. So, there are no real big surprises there. The only surprises are little timing things, maybe they do things a little faster than we had expected, but i wouldnt call that intelligence imperfection, not intelligence failure. Weve known theyve wanted this program for a long time. Admiral, thank you very much for your time. Youre very welcome. Thank you. Alabamas the king of College Football again after a stunning comefrombehind victory in the National Title game. Tagovailoa tries to make up for it, fires to the end zone, touchdown alabama wins on second and 26, the crimson tide captured its fifth championship in nine years last night in atlanta. They beat georgia in the final play of the game to win 2623 in overtime. Freshman quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Who . Came off the bench Tua Tagovailoa. Okay. You want to give that to us or not . Nope, i got it. He came off the bench to pull off a victory. Dana jacobson shows us the Unlikely Hero who saved alabamas season. Dana, a true freshman. True freshman, and everybody will know his name and how to say it by later today, im certain of that. Alabama found itself in a hole last night, down 130 entering the second half, unable to find rhythm on the field. Thats when head Coach Nick Saban made a gamechanging decision. He decided to pull his starting quarterback, who had only lost twice in two years, for an unproven, inexperienced, true freshman, and it was all on College Footballs biggest stage. No hooked it reporter after alabama came only feet from capturing a National Title in regulation, freshman backup quarterback Tua Tagovailoa helped bail out his kicker and his team in historical fashion. Fires to the end zone, touchdown alabama wins reporter tagovailoa likely never even imagined being in the game, let alone throwing the gamewinning pass. Found out when we were in the locker room, you know. Coach brought the quarterbacks together and he, you know, he made the statement that, you know, tua, youre going to start out the second half. And who would have ever thought i would have been here, you know . End zone. Touchdown reporter the freshman signalcaller who last school year was still in high school was thrust into the biggest game of his life by alabama head Coach Nick Saban after nothing else appeared to be working. Sabans decision worked. Surveying the field, fires end zone. Touchdown was that a good game or what . Reporter the victory marked a major milestone for saban, who tied legendary coach bear bryant with six National Titles, the most all time. Last year we lost on the last play of the game, and this year we won on the last play of the game. So these kids really responded the right way. We said last year, dont waste the feeling and they sure didnt the way they played tonight. And how is this for a day . Moments after winning a national championship, alabama senior offensive lineman bradley bozeman, as you can see, proposed to his girlfriend on the field. She said yes. And he said it was a winonly proposal, would not have done it if they had not won, which makes sense. And he said it was only fair, he was getting a ring, so she should as well. A winonly proposal. I dont know about that one. Tagovailoa. But lets talk about him yeah. The pressure that he must have been under, dana, and he was a freshman he was in high school last year, wow it was crazy that he was able to do that, but thats the program at alabama. Also, we should point out, jalen hurts who got benched, all class. And he got them there. And nick saban was very happy. Yes, so reserved. Very happy. Congratulations to the crimson tide, and jan crawford, who loves them. Thank you very much, dana. Ahead, well take you to las vegas for the Largest Consumer tech show.

A case also alleges the Company Discriminates against men and white employees by unfairly favoring women and some minorities in considering demotions. One was fired in august after posting controversial opinions to an internal google message boy. Rikki clieman is here. Good morning. We were just talking about it upstairs because white men dominate most Industries Including i look around the room. A lot of white men in this room so it seems very hard to understand how you could have a case. Well, especially when at first blush when you look at google. Males are 69 of its population. Women are 31 of its population and when you look at race, whites are 59 of its population followed in great proportion by asians and then other minorities. This is confusing. Its not only confusing, you first say to yourself, come on. We all know that when we read about silicon valley, we have read countless tales of women saying i cant get jobs, if i get jobs i cant get a promotion, im not taken seriously and on it goes. However, when you delve into this 161 page complaint. And youve read it. I did read every bit of it and its really there in graphic detail including internal memoranda. Lots of emails, lots of things that were on the boards as well as tweets. What you do when you go into the company itself is you also have to look at the law. And the law is the surprise. You have a very good lawyer here. This is someone who has brought cases for a class of people who feel that they are white males and that they have been discriminated against. She has also looked at this industry and looked at conservative speech. And what she looks at also are the campuses and other places where conservative speakers called to speak is basically shot down and shot out and she says thats whats happening here. So how can a white man file discrimination . Im still confused by that. Well, lets look at his history. Were looking at him as the person who wants to represent the plaintiff class. He is someone who has had excellent reviews. He has gotten salary increases, bonuses, stock options, all the way up he goes and he goes as if he has a stellar career. Then he winds up at diversity meetings when they have these weekly and monthly meetings and he hears that not only are hiring preferences going to go to women and minorities, but so are promotional preferences and what he says is wait a minute. I am just as equally qualified so why should i be shut out . Remember too, conservative point of view is a separate element here. Thats the nuts and bolts of this case. We are shut down and shut up so he says. So interesting. We should just note a google Spokes Person issued a statement saying quote, we look forward to defending against mr.

Science class. Technology to improve your health is among the highlights of the electronic show. It opens this morning in las vegas. More than 170,000 people are expected to attend. Nearly 4,000 companies from innovative start ups to industry power houses like google and samsung will showcase their products. Brian coolly from the partners is at the show in las vegas. Brian, good morning. Good morning, everybody. So lets talk about this auto presence here. Nissan, in particular, showing off the technology which is brain to vehicle. What is it . Its like a mindreading concept. Yeah. Believe it or not. Mind reading through this is my Digital Crown of thorns here. This is a piece you put on your head. Its got these little sensor proposes underneath it. And when you don this, it will connect to a future nissan vehicle to wirelessly communicate what im thinking to the vehicle. So maybe it can react a quarter to a half second faster than it would by me actually grabbing the controllers or stabbing at the brakes. It might seemed crazy a couple of years ago, the way were going now with connected technologies in cars, this isnt that nutty. It could be used for safety, it could be used for things like getting a more sporty feel out of a car when youre in the mood. And nissan is deadly serious about testing with this. Its cool. This has become one of the new places to announce the big auto news, right . Yes, it absolutely has. Its interesting because the giant Detroit Auto Show is coming immediately after this one wraps up next week. And, yeah, youre seeing a biforindication here. If youre showing off a new model or an amazing new power train electrification, thats probably going to happen at the traditional auto show. Theres a lot of blurring and ill be honest with you. Its a blood battle between the two franchises. Weve been hearing about digital assistance in the bathrooms. And gayle and i have been wondering what do you need it for . I didnt know there were a lot of options in the bathroom, brian. Only so much you can do. A lot of plumbing. Yeah. These two companies with know well that are big makers of fancy highend appliances and such for the bathroom. One of them rolled out a smart mirror with amazon alexa built in. You can verbally control the lightening or what audio is playing through the mirror, as well. And then amazon alexa shower controls. You fwhget in the shower temperature and you turn the nobody here. Here you would use alexa and say, get my shower ready at 103 degrees. And get it prewarmed. But dont waste water spewing out all the hot water out until i tell you im getting in. Its a smart concept. An existing issue we feel. All right. That makes sense. Im looking a the little guy besides you, buddy. Hes creeping me out a little bit. How does he work . What is his deal . Buddy is one of our favorite robots now in a crop of robots in about the last couple of years. Kind of like a hyperactive kid in some ways. A smart voice reacting robot that can become a companion around the house. It has all kinds of sensors and cameras. You talk back and forth. Hello, buddy. Im listening. [ laughter ] hello. Buddy is listening always. Trust me. Can you dance . I think buddy is about to dance. Get ready. Here we go. Whoa. Okay. Buddy is like a home companion but also can run around the house. Ill grab buddy if things go wrong here and keep an eye on things for you. See if the pets are doing okay. If your kids are home. It can be your Remote Control eyes. Buddy can roam around. Let us know when he can fold the laundry. Loreal has a chip you can wear on the finger nail. This is the ultimate finger nail art. You put it on your nail and it is a uv sensor. It will keep track of your ultra violent exposure. It has no batteries and its tinny. It looks cool. It will report into a Smartphone App and let you know your cumulative uv exposure is. Theyll offer it through dermatologists and in 2019 buy it for 40. Its an important thing to keep an eye open. How amazing. A lot of ideas out there. Yeah. Thats good to monitor. Nice see you, bryan. Thank you so much. Thanks we got a lot going on here. Clearly. The robot is still dancing.

She became the first black woman to win an emmy for outstanding writing in a comedy series. She cowrote for netflix and now shes a coexecutive producer of a new drama series called the shy. This follows a group of people linked by circumstances. In this preview of episode number two, a character struggles afz learning who may have murdered his younger brother. Just go to the police. Really . The police aint going to do and neither are you because youre going to promise me. Promise me. Okay, i promise. I promise. Im not going to do nothing. Im just sitting here looking at pictures because i miss him. Im thinking about him. I know. I cant stop thinking about him. I miss him. I miss him. Does brandon keep the promise . Welcome ms. Waithe. And congratulations again to you. Your speech was one of many we were talking about the day after. Lets talk about the shy because this is a real personal project for you. You were reading and watching the news and thought what . I just thought there were a lot of people talking about the city who never lived there, who never survived a winter there, who never run the streets of the summer there and i feel like thats the thing that makes me able to really write these stories and characters because i know them. Even those people that i see on the news who i dont know personally, i know them. Whats the story you wanted to tell about your city . I just really wanted to say that you know, its not a jungle, hool gans with no hearts and no souls. Theyre born with the same amount of hope and joys every other little baby in the world and i think, you know, sometimes circumstances and things can affect their lives and choices they make, but i wanted to show that were all human. The idea too that statistics and perhaps what we show in the media dehumanizes these stories. Absolutely. It does and i think particularly especially with African American men theyre so dehumanized and the problem is you become desensitized to our deaths and thats problematic and for me i wanted to show the humanity behind the headlines because the next time you hear a story or a zatistic about a young black boy being shot and killed maybe it wont be background noise. Thats what i liked about it because it shows that really good people can make really bad decisions in a split second and it changes your life. Yeah. But you have been working on this for two to three years and when you pitched it i understand it didnt go so well. Well, look, i know the shy is not the most commercial thing. You know, i know its a protagonist story. Its a character study and i think sometimes thats difficult to see particularly when its people of color and i think sometimes they wonder, whats the hook . Are they singing to get out of the hood . Are they drug kingpins . Are they athletes. Are they playing basketball, you know, and look, at the end of the day, i understand all that, but sometimes its just middle class, you know, folks trying to get to work every day, trying to raise their kid, trying to get to church with they can. I wanted to show that sense of normalcy because i dont think you see people of color in that kind of way and i wanted to show that. I know you were reading a lot of james bald win and what ideas did that give you . I find when i read certain things it sparks your mind in a whole different way. Im always reading baldwin. I was introduced to him very young and the thing about his word he speaks in such beautiful prose and he speaks so honestly. I could just see the people, i could you know, i could smell them, i could hear them and i realized i wanted to do that in my script. How long had you been thinking about doing Something Like this . You know, i never thought i would write about chicago and i definitely never thought id write a drama. Everything before that was comedoic and i know people who know me from nashville nun and all that stuff. I think they might be surprised but i also want to show the range that i have. Some singers want to show what you can do and as a writer i think for me when i was seeing all these news stories about chicago i got a little frustrated and i wanted to express myself through art. And you did that. The Golden Globes, im curious as a person who also delivered a speech that were talking about, your reaction to oprahs speech. I think i was really, really blown away and a big reason is because, you know, i know what she spoke about when she was talking about. I was in high school and i remember seeing that speech and i can still quote it. Tonight this door has been opened. I mean, i could relate so much to that and to see how that has an impact on her life and that moment and for me, some young girl saying me on the emmy stage may have meant something for them its extremely important for us to be at these award ceremonies. It means so much to these young kids, you know, out watching saying like oh, well, if she did that, then maybe i can do it too. People are looking and saying i want to be like lena waithe who by the way, started as a production assistant. I did. It was amazing. We were spending some time. Ava is a good thing.

In oakland last night, firefighters were called to a crash on eastbound 580, during rush hour. And on highway 24, the rain washed out an onramp. Today, one of the men charged in oaklands deadly goship warehouse fire will number court. Lawyers for max harris will be granted public funds to help pay for his defense in his trial. Hes facing 36 counts of involuntary manslaughter. And the Oakland Raiders today are expected to formally introduce jon gruden as the teams head coach. A press conference is scheduled for noon today. Gruden previously led from 1998 to 2001. Well have when and traffic in a moment. There are two types of people in the world. Those who fear the future. And those who embrace it. The future is for the unafraid. All because of you good morning. Time now is 8 57. Expect delays if youre getting ready to head out of hayward. Were seeing problems on the san mateo bridge. Looks like they cleared that car over to the shoulder there. But you can see traffic slow, approaching the scene. Then we had an earlier problem on the rise. That is keeping your ride slow. Looks like travel times jumped into the green. That is the good news there. Oakland, 880, nimitz freeway. 32 minutes, heading in that northbound direction. From 238 on in towards the maze. Around 580, a bit sluggish. In the yellow. From 238 to 980, highway 24. The east shore freeway, looks like the wind is moving our camera around out there. And we are seeing some delays in that westbound direction. 21 minutes as you head on over to the macarthur maze and the bay bridge toll plaza has still been a very slow ride. Lets check in with neda now on the forecast. You may still see slick roads out there. Because we have not had a chance to dry out. Highdef doppler showing the rain has calmed down a lot. Moving further to the east. Through yountville. 101, as we move further south, you can see the rain bands, going through places like tracey and stockton, theyre getting it. Its all east of san jose. What we are seeing, though, is gloomy conditions out there. Foggy skies. San jose, down to 6. And livermore down to 2mile visibility. Patchy fog throughout petaluma and north bay and the lowlying areas. Look at this camera shot. Definitely gray out there today. Temperatures in the mid50s. It also will feel cool this afternoon. Our afternoon highs, very similar to our current conditions. Were not going to get much warming at all. We can now repair complex aortic aneurysms without invasive surgery. Imagine what we can do for varicose veins. And if we can precisely treat eye cancer with minimal damage to the rest of the eye, imagine what we can do for glaucoma, even cataracts. If we can use dna to diagnose the rarest of diseases, imagine what we can do for the conditions that affect us all. Imagine what we can do for you.
