West africa face more scrutiny in the u. S. Whats behind the very sudden and unexpected release of jeffery saal. We are learning about three young girls trying to. Isil. They ran away from denver and made it to germany in an apparent attempt to get to syria. Libby casey is in washington, d. C. This morning. What do we know about these girls . Good morning. Del and stephanie. Two sisters are 15 and 17, the friend 16. They are somali, the friend sudanese. The father reported them missing, generating this Police Report. The parents say the missing girls stole 2,000, also their passports, so police went investigating. The girls flew from denver to germany where they told authorities they stayed in the airport, were detained by the German Police and sent back to denver opinion the f. B. I. Has reunited them with their family, but the f. B. I. Still investigating. New clues what the f. B. I. Is going to be looking for . The agents will look at their computers and try to figure out how they bought these plane tickets and if they were in contact with any recruiters from isil. The police when they talked to the girls at home once returned to their families said the two sisters claimed they were there for family. They wouldnt elaborate any further. The question is what inspired them to go and did they have help. Were learning this morning that isil is claiming the u. S. Military made a huge mistake this week. What happened . Militant fighters from isil released a video claiming that one of the resupply bundles intended for those fighting against isil has gotten into the wrong hands. Its raising questions about just what happens to those u. S. Supplies. The Defense Department initially called the air drop of military hardware and supplies a success. Some of those weapons intended for Kurdish Forces fighting isil may have fallen into the wrong hands. They are the spoils for the mujahedeen. A man is seen standing next to a container with the parachute still attached. I dont know whether that was one of the ones dropped and whether the contents of it are in fact in the hands of isil. We are still looking at it. The contents include grenades and rocket propelled grenade parts. They are certainly of the kinds of material that was dropped, small arms ammunition and weaponry, so its not out of the realm of the possible in that reward. The state Department Says its not sure if the video is authentic. We know that part of isils strategy here is to wage a propaganda campaign. Thats why one of our lines of efforts have been delegitimizing isils propaganda. It is expected to make little difference on the battlefield. Isil already has heavy arms and equipment, including millions of dollars of u. S. Weapons and vehicles taken from iraq forces. U. S. Jets launched another seven airstrikes in iraq and kobane since monday. The pentagon revealed the air campaign, which has cost 424 million so far, appears to be turning the tide for syrian kurds, fighting isil near turkeys border. The situation in kobane still rye mains tenuous. We do assess that Kurdish Forces in the city are in control of the majority of t city. That said, isil forces continue to threaten it. The Defense Department said monday that one of these reply bundles, one of 28 did go awry but was destroyed. Most of the items, the vast majority got to their target, so were still waiting for confirmation about where these bundles landed. Libby casey live in washington, d. C. , thank you very much. The fight against isil also heating up in iraq. The iraqis are making strong gains protecting isil. For more, lets go to imran khan. What can you tell us . I can tell you the defensive began monday, it backed up the roads between baghdad and the city, going from baghdad all the way up to concrete. These are very crucial areas, tikrit, and they are deny isil ground. Once theyve done that, they will take the city of tikrit, hopefully, they say, and theyll be able to cut off isil from resupplying troops and from communicating. If they do that, it does give them the upper hand, this is a very tougher battle. The troops in tikrit are hard core, some of them are former sudan loyalists. Others know the area very well, they are the kind of rebels that are very much iraq and foreign fighters. This is going to be a tough fight, will please americans saying that the ires need to get out of their bases and take the fight to isil. On the political front, iraqs Prime Minister is in iran today. What do they hope to achieve . Hes taken meetings with several key members of the leadership, including president rouhani, with ayatollah, that conversation seemed to be considerable, giving firstly Prime Minister al abaddi legitimacy, meeting with one of the key figures on the planet. He had a message from the grand ayatollah, one of the shia clerics here. Everybody in the Shia Community and shia world is very worried about the key shia shrines that are in iraq. Those shrines are a red line. If isil attacks those, they want to destroy them. If they attack those shrines, the rannens face no choice but to send troops in, escalating the conflict. Thank you. Please in the u. K. Have arrested a young woman on terrorism charges. The 25yearold is accused of preparing to take part in some terrorist act related to syria. Two homes are now searched as part of that investigation. Del, canada has raised its terror alert from low to medium after seeing a rise in chatter from radical groups. The change also comes after a man killed a soldier with his car. The 25yearold was later killed by police after a chase. Police say the attack was linked to idealist ideology. Onboard a plane in ohio is a man who was detained in korea since may. Overnight, its all happened. We did know about it, but nobody said nothing until he got to guam. Now hes on the ground. Lots of excitement, hes back home with his family in ohio. Good morning, jeffery, just down on the runway. North korea making a decision only late yesterday that u. S. Dip lemats should come to pyongyang for diplomatic hand off and he was flown out. The plane landed, he was greeted by his family as he stepped on to the tarmac. The 53yearold father of three was visiting north korea on a tour it visa in may when he left a bible at a nightclub. North korean authorities arrested him and accused him of pros they will tieing. Kenneth bay is a missionary from washington state, sentenced to 15 years hard labor, accused of plot to go overthrow the north korean government and Matthew Miller, who is believed to have ripped up his visa when he arrived in the country with the intention of going to prison there to expose human rights violations. The secretary has tweeted out, secretary kerry, he said there was no quid pro quo in this deal and wishes the Six Party Nuclear talks involving north korea well for the future. That is the question everybody had. Starting this morning, all u. S.

A photo journalist is now ebola free and will be released from the hospital later today. It is the First Official day on the job for the new ebola czar. Adjustment bound travelers from west africa go through tests to enter the country. We have more on the effort to contain the ebola spread. These airports had advanced screening, now it will be a requirement to travel through those airports. They are new yorks j. F. K. , Newark Airport, atlanta, chicago ohare as well as washington dull less. The concern is there are many criticizing this and saying more needs to be done, that there should be a travel ban, that this still allows for the opportunity for passengers who have come through another airport en route to the United States will have the opportunity to switch up their passports, perhaps lie about their original destination or originating city from where they are traveling to their destination, so a lot of criticism about new measures put in place by the department of homeland security, the white house saying that they are considering other travel restrictions and open to discussions about other travel restrictions, but at this point, still rule out any travel ban from the three african west african countries. Rwanda will screen passengers from the u. S. And spain for ebola. Officials there say thats because the virus has surfaced in both of those countries.

The paper was told if he has his hand near the gun when it goes offer, hes going for the officers gun. This report is a farakhan draft from the findings released bay coroner hired by the brown family to conduct a private autopsy.

He was arrested in may in north korea for leaving a bible in a club. Two americans are still held by the north korean government. The question being asked is the one secretary of state john kerry addressed quickly. Was there a quid pro quo concerning the release of mr. Fowle and your opinion on whether or not the secretary is hiding something. The state Department Yesterday thanked sweden for its efforts. If the north careens got anything, its not apparent. They almost always demand something. They always say there was no quid pro quo and decades later find there was. We dont have a human rights coordinator, clearly the north careens are in this sort of charm offensive, after their rupture of relationships with china, i think what were seeing is north korea trying to built bridges, because theyve lost all that support from china. How big a concession is this on north koreas part considering there are two other americans, including kenneth bay, a missionary held longer than any of them still being sent to labor camps. We only know of the two others and there are probably others, as well. Theres a lot of suspicions about a number of other people who have not appeared. Clearly the north careens have more bargaining chips and can release them at a later time. Jeffery fowle was the one they had the least interest in keeping. He just left the bible. While they might find that offensive, its not as bad as kenneth bay and Matthew Miller in their view. Does this bode well for the release of the other two . I think it does. North korea is in a new phase of diplomacy. I think essentially they need the help from the west and especially the United States. I think theres a lot goingen on under the surface. Do you think the new phase of diplomacy is directed by the Supreme Leader himself . It could be, but weve seen a lot of turbulence over the last four years. We could have new elements setting policy in north korea, including that general who went to south korea at the beginning of this month.

He was going to indiana gun shows and purchasing guns and bringing them back to chicago. Those guns were then trafficked to gun members. We call that straw purchasing.

Sam is the first openly gay plier to be drafted by the nfl. A u. S. Marine accused of murder in the philippines has been transferred to a military base in manila. He is under investigation for the death of a transgender filipino. Police believe he killed jennifer loud after the two met in a bar two weeks ago. Although he is at a filipino military facility, he is still in the custody of the u. S. Military. To sort through all of this, Patrick Mcclean joins us, a former military judge and military law defense attorney. Thanks for being with us. Mr. Has been outrage that pemberton was not arrested earlier. Whos custody is he in . He is in u. S. Custody but the u. S. Is making him available for trial in the philippines. Under the visiting forces agreement of 1996, amended in 2006 with a hand security agreement. What is the likelihood we will see private member to know in a Filipino Court . Pretty high. It appears from what were seeing in the reports that the u. S. Has agreed to allow him to be tried in Filipino Courts, wimp is not unknown and other places where u. S. Military forces serve, japan, korea and other countries. What kind of Legal Counsel would you expect to have for somebody like that in the philippines . Would he have u. S. Military counsel or local filipino counsel . The answer is yes to both. He has a defense counsel filipino and she has spoke to the press about why he was absent at the hearing yesterday. He will be monitored by an attorney from the u. S. , typically provided by the department of state from our embass in manila or from the United States marine corps or United States navy as an observer, merely to report on the proceeding as opposed to necessarily serve weight filipino defense counsel. So, what youre saying is that he is now at the system in the philippines. If convicted on this murder charge, does the u. S. Do anything else or do they simply turn him over to filipino authorities . There maybe some behind the scenes negotiations, for instance, if the philippines legal proceeding proceeds to the end and were he to be convicted and of course we have no idea what the evidence in the case is, but if he were to be convicted, he may serve a sentence in the philippines or through the agreement, he may serve a sentence in the United States. This is the sort of thing that will be negotiated at a high level between the philippines and United States. There was a case in the mid 1990s where marines were accused of a rape in the philippines and in that situation, the armed forces did not turn them over to filipino authorities. What do you think made the difference in this case . Oft times, it depends on the negotiations and Political Considerations well above the pay grade of anybody there in the pill teens for the United States. This is not an uncommon thing. Weve been in the philippines well over 100 years. Weve had varying agreements with the fill teens. When you have that amount of military personnel, you have your 1 that get in trouble and occasionally they are tried out in courts in the local judicial system, as they are in many other countries in which u. S. Military personnel serve or visit. Patrick mcclain, former marine corps military judge, thank you for your expertise this morning. We are looking closer as an medical break through this morning. A paralyzed man is walking again after cell therapy. One scientists calls the radical treatment more impressive than man walking on the moon. Jacob ward has the story. One of the many knife wounds derrek suffered in a 2010 stabbing attack sliced his spine, leaving it attached by a tiny strip of scar tissue. Like 3 million other people with that clean break in the spine, he was paralyzed. At the time, he had no chance of recovery, but a team of doctors from poland and britain implanted cells into his spinal cord and seemed to have regrown the lost connection there. Nerve fibers can grow back and restore function, provide we give a bridge. He spent five hours a day in exhaustive therapy. He noticed his muscles were regaining strength. He can now walk outside with leg braces and a frame and recovered limited bladder and sexual function. In another era, we would have called this a miracle. I believe this is the moment paralysis cob reversed. It is the implantation of one part of the body to the other. The knows release on special nerves constantly replaced through our adult lives to smell. The cells were released that control regeneration, grew more in a lab and injected them above and blow his spinal gap. This was a leap of faith. No one knew fit would work. They had to put strips of nerve tissues across the gap, inject the cells, wait and hope. This is magic. You are making history now. To me, this is more impressive than a man walking on the moon. Scientists say they believe the cells form a pathway that stimulates the spinal cord cells to regenerate, but dont understand how. Future trials of this technique will involve 10 patients in poland and britain, ideally people with cleanly severed spines. This puts a man back on his feet who over a decade ago would have had no chance to walk again, reminding us how powerful Stem Cell Therapy can be. Some say a lot more Research Needs to be done. Lets look at other stories caught in our global net. The winner of a contest, a nun singing an ode to madonna. A cover of madonnas like a virgin. When your beats next to mine madonna inspired a nun. Its a different video. Madonna wears a crucifix in the original. She sings a more sober version of the song about the capacity of love to make people new grown in a galaxy far far away is a brew battle. Looklucas films filing a lawsuit against the name of a brew called strikes bock. I think its a clever name. A boxer repeatedly punched a ref after losing a fight. Right there. Then he keeps punching him. Hes on the mat, chaos ensues. I dont think that boxer is getting back in the ring. Toys are us is pulling controversial breaking bad action physician, the dolls based on the characters included a toy bag of the drug and a sack of money.

They are trained of what symptoms to watch out for as travel restrictions for people coming into this country from west africa. Well talk to the former head of security about the new lines of defense. Remnants of a world war ii battle found at the bottom of the atlantic ocean, just off the adjustment coastline. Where the wreckage is located is one of todays discoveries. Terrorist. To him now for were you ever todays discoveries. This world war ii uboat now found offer the coast of carolina. Historians believe it was crippled during the battle of the atlantic in 1942. All crew members were lost. The sub hit an american merchant ship with a torpedo before going down. Both are sitting at the oceans floor hundreds of yards apart, the site considered a war grave and protected by international law. Thousands of Health Care Workers in new york city attending a special ebola seminar to learn how to handle patients. You were there at the special training. Good morning. What did you see . A lot of information shared and people taking notes. New York Health Officials say they are trying to apply the Lessons Learned from the experience that texas presbyterian where a patient who contracted ebola died and two nurses contracted the disease. When those nurses became ill, Health Care Workers began raising questions about protocol that was supposed to protect them. Tuesday, federal Health Officials explained new rules for the next time a patient with ebola comes to a hospital. Health care workers signed into an auditorium to learn. We are on the front line and need to be educated in taking care of all kinds of patients. The featured speakers were Public Health care experts, but new York Governor Andrew Cuomo was there cautioning the audience that dealing with ebola isnt the only challenge. The second problem is dealing with peoples anxiety and peoples panic. So far, new yorkers had no cases of ebola but public Health Officials want Health Care Workers to be ready in case. Showcasing the new training protocols to nurses, aids, technicians, dieticians, custodians, anyone who might come in contact with a patient with ebola. The range of motion exercises before you go in, make sure a the p. P. E. Is ready, comfortable and youre not going to have to adjust it once you go in the room. He explained each step, drop the scrubs to gloves, foot covering, outer gown, facemask, head covering, a second pair of gloves, and last, a face shield with frequent use of Hand Sanitizer throughout. The doctor stressed the new requirement of having an observer to assist the Health Care Worker before and after seeing the patient. She does not begin any of the removal of the equipment until the trained observer is there and ready to help. The attendees we spoke with said the session was very useful. A dialysis technician knows that bodily fluid it is from an ebola patient could be a source of disease. What do you think needs to be done next to get Health Care Workers ready . More practice. We need to spread the protocols laid out by the city and make sure everyone understands that these are protocols that need to be followed. To me, thats the most important thing. You can have protocols, if youre not following it, its useless. Like the man said, practice, practice, practice. Health care workers are expected to share what they learned with colleagues that could not attend. Joining us now is an officer from new york city, thanks for being with us this morning. Youve talked to the workers. People are very concerned about the. When they come to understand that this is not that highly contagious, there are a lot of precautions you can take to prevent it from happening and some of them are common sense things. Lets talk about whether or not they can get it done. Last week i was clearing customs. There is a crush of humanity at these airports. How do you single out passengers and test them and not create gridlock in the system . They need come up with a way to mass screen people, look for high body temperature. A person is not contagious until symptomatic. Although they may have been exposed, if they dont have a fever or other symptoms, they cant pass the disease on to anybody else. You mass screen, using heat sensing cameras and other things to pick out those people with symptoms and question them. Its not enough just to fill out the form. You need to talk to people and that happens to people who get pulled out. Just last week, the white house rebuffed calls for a travel ban. Are these restrictions different and if so, what changed . This is not a travel ban. All it is is saying when they originally came out with the plan, they were covering about 94 of the people who came into the United States from the affected countries. Theyve tightened it up a little now and said that you now have to come through and plan is to screen 100 . Youre never going to get 100, because some people will slip through, but theyre going to try to get 100 of the people coming in to come through those screening areas. What realistically condition the airport workers do and are they trained to detect the virus . The people from the c. D. C. Doing the questioning are highly trained professionals. The questions asked, theyre looking at passports and the stamps and the passports and the visas to see where these people have come from. They talk to them.

Why ferguson Police Officer darren wilson, a report adding support to wilsons story. I phones and ipads anticipating what you will say in a text message. An american held in north korea is back in the u. S. We are outside dayton ohio, about an hour ago, his wife and kids awaiting his return. John joins us live. All of this coming together quickly and quietly. The media knew it was going to happen, but nobody said anything until the plane got to guam. He was flown out of north korea aboard a u. S. Plane. North korea deciding it would be best if u. S. Diplomats came to pyongyang to rale for his release. Just before 7 00 a. M. Eastern time, he landed in ohio, where his wife and children were waiting to say hello again. He has been evaluated bay doctor and appears to be in good health. Back on american soil, Jeffery Fowle, a father of three released from north korea six months after detained for leaving a bible at a nightclub. Tuesday, a u. S. Plane touched down briefly in pyongyang for the carefully executed handoff. In august, fowle publicly apologized for the incident. I apologize to the people and the government of the United States and government and people here, too. He was on a tourist visa when arrested and accused of pros they will tieing, a serious cri. The state department is praising sweden for helping with his release. We welcome the decision to release him. While this is a positive decision, we call on the dprk to release the other two americans. Sentenced to 15 years hard labor, accused of plotting to overthrow the government, and Matthew Miller, accused of tearing up his visa intending to go to prison to expose human rights violations. Secretary of state john kerry says there was no quid pro quo for the release of fowle and expressed home that the denuclearization talks now stalled could restart soon. Doctors investigated and presidency Jeffery Fowle and he is well. The f. B. I. Is investigating three colorado teens. They suspect they tried to join isil. Two sisters and a friend were caught in germany on their way to syria. We have that story. What details are police giving about these girls and what they may have planned . The teenagers were two sisters, age 15 and 17, and their friend a 16yearold. The denver post reports that the sisters are so malian, the friend sudanese. They were reported missing by the sisters father, and that generated this Police Report. The girls family say they stole 2,000 and took from their mother their passports and flew all the way to germany where they stayed in the airport according to a Police Report until officials detained them and sent them back to denver. Officials have reds them into their familys custody. What are authorities doing to try to figure out who they might have been communicating with . Theyre looking at the girls computers and trying to figure out where they got the tickets and funding for those tickets and whether or not they were in communication with any recruiters from isil, what exactly their purpose was. Now, secretary of state john kerry has been in germany on unrelated business and he weighed in on this. Were very, very grateful to germany for their cooperation with us on this particular instance of some young folks who were traveling. Its under investigation now. The police in colorado asked the girls why they had traveled to germany. They said family. Now f. B. I. Officials in denver decline to say whether theres a suspected link between the girls and militants in syria, only saying that these teenagers are with their families and the f. B. I. Did help bring them home. We are hearing a lot of talk this morning about isil claims that it had some of the u. S. Weapons that were dropped for kurds in kobane. What happened and what are u. S. Officials saying . A video has surfaced where isil fighters claim they have gotten ahold of one of those bundles dropped to fight isil. Now, in the video, the fighter there is saying that these are the spoils for the mujahedeen and shows the supplies. Defense officials said one supply drop did go missing but claimed it was destroyed. Now officials are saying that they basically dont know if this is legitimate or not. The reality is isil fighters do have u. S. Supplies, because theyve taken them from iraq forces over the last months and year. Well dissect that more in the coming hour. Thank you. The fight against isil heating up in iraq. The iraqis are making strong gains protecting the capital, baghdad and Oil Rich Towns that lead to the city. For more, we go to imran khan. The army are finally marching on the city of tikrit, one of the key cities where Sadaam Hussein comes from. These are hard wore fighters within that area. They know the area well so have been able to control and cut off the key supply line between the north and baghdad and now the iraq army are on the marsh. Theyve taken towns coming up to that. What they are doing now is as the road goes through the countryside on either side are towns and villages where the iraq army have spread and putting these fivekilometer radiuses in so isil doesnt come back and going to try to deny ground to isil. This will be a good mood welcomed by the americans who have criticized the iraq army for not getting out of their barracks and not capitalizing on the coalition airstrikes. This isnt an offensive that will end in days or weeks. It will take a very long time to push those isil fighters out of tikrit. It is happening and as the operation began on monday. Also iraqs foreign minister in iran today, what do they hope to achieve . The iranians and the iraqis have had very close relations since the fall Sadaam Hussein. Isil want to attack shrines. If they do, iran will send in troops to ires if those shrines get attacked. The Prime Minister has met with the iraq president. A change comes after a man ambushed two soldiers near montreal, killing one with his car. The attack was linked to extremist ideology. There newer efforts to stem the ebola outbreak, several new vaccines are in the pipeline and should be ready for testing early next year. All u. S. Bound air travelers from west african countries dealing with ebola are being rerouted through one of five airports with enhanced screening. Why did government officials choose at this time to implement this specific tactic . About 150 passengers come in from the three west african nations that are strucken with ebola. At this point, officials are doing this because they want to tighten the gap of people coming in to monitor them better. They are going to use instruments like this, this fever detector when they come into the u. S. Theyll make sure people heading in dont have this Infectious Disease. Starting day, new travel restrictions take effect to keep ebola from reaching the u. S. It requires people from liberia, guinea or sierra leone to land at five designated u. S. Airports for enhanced screening. Its a safer thing to do. In new jersey, a passenger who arrived in Newark Airport was singled out during the screening process and was rushed to the hospital to be evaluated for ebola. The c. D. C. Says the individual was identified as reporting symptoms or having potential exposure to ebola. In chicago, at ohare airport, two people traveling from liberia went to the hospital last night after getting sick on two separate flights. Some members of congress are pushing for stricter regulations and want to block travel from these three western african countries. The travel ban at this point, the president has concluded on the advice of scientists and Public Health experts that it would put the American People at greater risk, not less. Meanwhile, pharmaceutical giant johnson and johnson announced a 200 million commitment to fight ebola and will begin testing a vaccine on humans in january. On tuesday, the World Health Organization said two other vaccines are currently undergoing clinical trials, but the assistant director general urged caution. At this point, we dont know if the vaccines are really safe and we dont know if they work. If they work, whats how efficacious are they . A journalist is now ebola free and will be released today and dallas nurse nina phams condition is upgraded from fair to good. Pham and her coworker nurse, Amber Vincent contracted the virus taking care of ebola patient thomas eric duncan, who later died. Vincent is responding to treatment, according to her mother. We are very confident that emery hospital is taking good care of amber. Im very happy that shes there. So far at the worlds Busiest Airport here in atlanta, no issues, no one has come in with the ebola infection or symptommion of it. There is also this other development, new ebola czar is beginning. What can we expect from him. Today he meets with the president. Theyll look at situations across the country, the hospitals, the way the c. D. C. Training is going and talk about the airports, whether or not theyre safe and some new instrumentation theyre doing with protocols, testing fevers and just make sure its under control here and look at the way the military is doing over in west africa right now. Steph. A lot of moving parts. Robert ray for us in atlanta, thank you. The official autopsy report on Michael Browns death has now been linked to a st. Louis newspaper. The documents shed new light on the day brown was gunned down. We are talking about 16 page that is detail the death of the unarmed teenager Michael Brown. Some are revelations that seem to support the officer. The report reveals brown had marijuana in his system when he allegedly became belligerent towards officer darren wilson. The officers told investigators brown reached through the drivers side window and tried to grab his gun. During the struggle, wilson fired the gun twice, hitting brown in the hand. Wilson said he feared for his life when he fired shots killing brown. In all, the autopsy notes three he wounds to browns head, to to his chest, three to his right arm and one to his right hand. The report points out brown had abrasions to the right side of his face and back of his left hand. A former st. Louis medical examiner told the newspaper that the autopsy evidence supports there was a significant altercation at the car, plus the begun powder burns around browns hand indicate a shot fired at close range. Now a forensic pathologist tells the paper if brown had his hand near the gun when it went off, he was going for the gun. In contrast to this report, a coroner hired by the brown family to do a private autopsy found none of the gunshot wounds seem to have been fired at close range opinion the Justice Department will do its own autopsy on Michael Brown. Next month, a grand jury is expected to decide if the officer should be charged in the teens death. Meanwhile, missouris governor is creating an independent commission to examine social and Economic Conditions that led to unrest in ferguson. The 15 person team will be chosen by Governor Nixon and announced next month. Anyone who wants to apply can go to the website. Ben bradley died after a long battle with alzheimers. He was 93. Under his three decade tenure, the paper rose to fame with the watergate scandal, leading to president nixons resignation. We look back at the journalism. I ant. Ben bradlee capitalized on close ties to washingtons social elite to run the newsroom of one of americas most influential outlets, the washington post. In 1972 under his supervision, the reporters bob woodward and Carl Bernstein trace add burglary attempt at water gates offices to some of president Richard Nixons top aids. One key source was a top f. B. I. Official they called deep throat. Deep throat was right from beginning to end. Woodward and bernstein were not making mistakes, so that the accuracy of their stories were never called into question. Nixons attempts to cover his involvement in the scandal, crimes of obstructing justice ultimately led to his resignation, the only time an american president quit while in office. The scandal was called a watershed chapter in u. S. History, when Americans Trust in their leaders suffered serious erosion. People dont tell the truth enough. 100 different ways, and its become so easy to lie that no one recognizes lies. Bradlee, backed by the post owner catherine land fought nixon by winning a landmark ruling for freedom of the press. The post published a seek writ history of the vietnam war, known as the pentagon papers. The newspaper argued that the publics right to know trumped the governments claim of damage to the nations security. When the head of the c. I. A. Tells you that publishing something will damage the country, you cant just tell them to go jump in the lake. Other president , barack obama awarded the top civilian designation for speaking truth to power. During his leadership of the washington post, the newspaper was awarded 19 pulitzer prizes. A noreaster on the coast, dumping a lot of rain. For more, we turn to kevin, up early. I like it, actually. Good.

It is his third appearance helping her fight mitch mcconnell, Hillary Clinton campaigning for grymes, as well. The tide could be turning against a governor. Some republicans endorse his democratic opponent. We have more on the tight race. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the kansas state fair in hutchinson in what could very well be a pivotal year in kansas politics. In the race for governor of kansas, challenger paul davis is running neck and neck with the incumbent, sam brownback. Im paul davis, a moderate, a common sense leader and independent thinker opinion the governors experiment just isnt working. We are trailing our surrounding states and the rest of the country in virtually every Economic Growth indicator there is, and it has plunged our state deep do debt. Sam brownback ran in 2010, a huge republican year across the country and won a sweeping victory here. The brownback promise was along the lines that we would cut taxes and there would be a surge in employment, a surge in Economic Growth. That certainly hasnt happened. In fact, whats happened is that as you might expect, when you cut taxes substantially, revenues have plunged. Last year, kansas lost a fifth of its tax revenue. Early they are year, two credit agencies lowered kansas bond rating. There is a lot of dissatisfaction for a politician like governor brownback in a bright red state to be fighting for his political life here is simply a remarkable political story. Im pretty conservative myself, but they went nuts. We had the weirdest damned set of bills come before the Legislature Last year. They virtually eliminated the income tax part. That sounds really good, because nobody wants to pay more income taxes, but we still have basic functions thats the responsibility of the state to implement. Lets go through this cut. The cut was the obama stimulus money going away that paul davis agreed putting it in the budget. He left a fiscal train wreck in the state of cans and hes the democratic leader then. Hes the nancy pelosi of kansas. Thats what he did governor, you can blame everybody you want, but the fact remains that you made the single largest cut to Public School funding and all you have to do is talk to these teachers out here. I talked with a teacher the other day. Teachers across the state are mobilizing in a grassroots effort to defeat governor brownback. Im a special Education Teacher in topeka Public Schools. That has really lit a fire under our teachers, because they understand that people are attacking the Public Schools, theyre attacking students and attacking teachers and theyve got to stand up and do something. You can see the second part in our series as we follow the battle for kansas. Theres a tight senate race there, too. Thats america tonight at 9 00 p. M. Eastern, 6 00 p. M. Pacific. The United Nations is looking to attacks object u. N. Compounds during Israelis Defense in gaza this summer. Secretary general ban kimoon said they will focus on attacks where civilians were killed. The deadline to release hundreds of school girls in nigeria kidnapped by boko haram has gone. The ceasefire appears to be falling apart.

Kevin is back with more. It is miserable here across the northeast and also down towards the southwest. This is florida, West Palm Beach florida where they saw four to six inches of rain in a four hour period. Flooding was major across much of the area. On highway 95, there were car accidents. When the tractor trailers pass you buy, your visibility goes down, a very, very dangerous situation. Well see better weather, but we do expect to see a Tropical Storm brewing towards the south in the gulf of mexico aband that we dont know quite the track yet, but it is developing moisture. By the time with he get to thursday, we are looking at heavy rain for south florida. It gets better by the time you get up towards orlando, but miami pretty much a washout for the next couple days.

The mystery of billions of bees that ever vanished without a tries, now taking a significant new turn. Images of a three car pileup in pennsylvania, one car capturing the incident on video. Lets look at headlines were following this morning. An american held in north korea since may is back in the United States. Outside dayton ohio 90 minutes ago, he was greeted by his family. He was accused of leaving a bible at a nightclub. The f. B. I. Investigating the case of three teens caught in germany on their way to join isil. The colorado teens are back home. It is unclear if they will be charged. Isil fighters showed weapons captured that were dropped in syria. A journalist is now ebola free. The ebola czar ron klain begins his First Official day on the job. This morning, all u. S. Bound air travelers from west african countries dealing with ebola are facing advanced screening. For more, lets bring in robert ray at Jackson International airport. Take us through these new government guidelines. Good morning, stephanie. You know, the thing about this is theres been a lot of calls for a travel ban by some lawmakers. A travel ban for people coming from west africa into the u. S. At this point, what officials are doing is isolating the airports that people come in through, about 150 passengers from west africa come into the u. S. Each day here at atlantas Busiest Airport in the world, chicago ohare, newark, j. F. K. And dulles. They are isolating airports to make sure they are looking at people coming into those airports instead of others. They are doing their best at this point, despite calls for a travel ban. What did government officials decide at this point to implement the specific tactic, robert . Again, at this point, its essentially just to make sure that anyone coming into the u. S. Does not have symptoms of the ebola virus and to make sure that theyre monitoring folks in a very small capacity, meaning just these ive airports to people come in through west africa. An Infectious Disease specialist has been with us since day one of this situation. Doctor, we have before and after pictures of the ebola protective wear issued by the c. D. C. When they released these updates, what did they emphasize . The key point emphasized is its not just about the personal protective equipment. The key is to know how ho use it. Theres going to be extensive training and retraining of Health Care Workers and essentially a certification process to demonstrate that youre proficient in the use of the personal protective equipment. Are these new guidelines just that, guidelines . Can the federal government actually tell hospitals what to do . The c. D. C. Cannot instruct hospitals and enforce it, but i think what were going to see is essentially other states following the lead of new york state where eight hospitals have been designated as ebola referral centers, including bellevue, mount sinai and others. Those hospitals willing targeted for training and the retraining certification. Theyll really be very invested, because they know if theres an ebola patient, this is where theyre going to show up. Since day one, doctors have been saying that Doctors Without Borders have been leading the charge against ebola and they get it right. How close to the c. D. C. Come to what Doctors Without Borders are doing . The key difference is the decontamination step. What workers do in the field is have you as you come out of the ebola treatment unit in full gear, you stand over gravel and they spray you down with bleach. That wouldnt work well in a hospital, youd have bleach all over the floor and the patients room. The last thing you want is a Health Care Worker falling on a puddle of bleach. Here we use decontaminating wipes instead of being sprayed down. What about the specific procedures that have to be done, wearing these particular outfits, inserting an i. V. Tube . Its something we dont have a great answer to right now. In the field, Doctors Without Borders, some have stopped putting in i. V. s, using them in only limited circumstances. In this country, you just walk into a hospital, you get an i. V. That increases the risk to Health Care Workers of getting infected. There are other things we do, putting patients on dialysis, intubating them to help them breathe. All that dramatically increases the risk to Health Care Workers. Three colorado teens are under investigation after they were caught on their way to join isil. The teens are now back home. Its unclear if they will be charged with a crime. In syria, this new video appears to show an isil fighter with a pal let of u. S. Weapons. The create was air dropped for kurdish fighters in syria. U. S. Officials are trying to verify the authenticity of that tape. Joining us now, colonel cedric layton, a retired air force officers and former member of the jointly chiefs of staff, your expertise is appreciated this morning. Is it disingenuous for the upon the gone to be saying they are not sure if these are u. S. Weapons . Wouldnt they know exactly what they look like . We definitely know what the weapons look like and they should know what the creates look like that they put them in in order to drop them there. They are probably trying to assess whether or not these weapons were air dropped in or if possibly they were stolen from iraq military or some other source, and either one could be u. S. Weapons. They want to make sure that the top line of where it came from is ironclad to figure out exactly whether it was an air drop gone wrong or isil is just making propaganda out of it. This video is fascinating, to see a chest full of grenades. When you look at this, i think those are mortars, what do you see when you look at this video . Well, like you said, you see the grenades, you see munitions. You see the mortars that are associated with the kinds of weapons that the kurdish fighters have, so it looks to me like these are weapons that were dropped in an air drop and destined for the syriankurdish fighters. To me, based on what ive seen so far, it looks like an air drop gone wrong, but there is an outside chance that these weapons could have been stolen from somewhere else and just put there as if they were an air drop gone wrong. Its very easy for air drops to go wrong and very easy for everything from the wind to be unfavorable to a piece of territory all of a sudden being taken over by isil fighters that wasnt isil territory before, so it is definitely possible that there are some extenuating circumstances in this case. What i hear you saying is that theres all this uncertainty when you drop this stuff down. Is this a good military tactic against isil . Its a very risky military tactic. Of course weve been doing this since basically world war ii, when weve dropped supplies into resistance fighters in places like france, for example, but it is a timetested technique that often has some significant problems associated with it. The best way to hand over weapons to somebody is facetoface, you know, to do it right there in their territory on ground level, but when youre not there on the ground, the next alternative is to air drop them and in spite of the risk, weve been doing it for years and we continue to do it. There are definitely better ways to do it if you can get in there, but thats the difference between having a presence on the ground and not having one on the ground. I want to get your comment on the report of these girls in colorado, these teenage girls that got from colorado to germany, to frankfurt, germany, allegedly to join isil. What do you make of this and what does it say about isils growing tentacles in the u. S. . I think we have to be very careful. We have to Pay Attention to stories like this, because it shows that isils reach is a very big one, and they are really targeting a lot of young people. Anybody who has sympathies with isil, anybody who, you know, has any sympathy even with muslimrelated, islamic related causes may be at risk for being brought into Something Like this, and so appearance have to be very careful with children, people have to understand what the true nature of the isil ideology is, and usually, thats not immediately evident when they start recruiting people. I think these girls, you know, based on what we see so far, probably fell victim to very good recruiting tactics and they wanted to have some excitement. Unfortunately, sometimes people look for excitement in very wrong places. Colonel, thank you so much.

It seems bees are making a comeback. Its a mystery thats plagued scientists for eight years, billions have bees vanishing without a tries. It appears the bee killing disease known as colony collapse disorder may have run its course. The bad news is the countries Bee Population is still in danger. First detected in 2006, c. C. D. Soon spread across the u. S. , affecting about 10 of americas honey Bee Population or roughly 200,000 colonies a year. What happened is a bee keeper would go to these colonies and maybe over a matter of two weeks, the workers or the bulk of the colonies disappear. They continue to lose 30 of their colonies each winter, double what motor consider an acceptable rate of loss. According to scientists, these losses are driven by three primary factors. The first is nutrition. Weve seen huge changes in the landscape in the United States, especially in the midwest, where once there were lots of acres of meadow that is have flowers and plants, those have been plowed under and put into corn and soybean. Faced with the severe lack of diversity in their diets, bees dont ever the strength to face long winter months and are more susceptible to dies. Pesticides, including those bee keepers used to control are proving lethal oh bees. They are deadly when chemicals from different fields combine into a single toxic cocktail. The massive die off is as much of a concern to farmers as bee keepers. Scientists estimate one in every three bites of food we eat of pollinated by honey bees, fruits and vegetable to say tree nuts. Overall, honey bees contribute an estimated 15 billion to the u. S. Economy each year. If we consider them livestock, their the third motor important agricultural livestock we ever in the states, so right after cows and pigs come the bees. Preprovide more economic value to the economy than the poultry industry does. Faced with a threat to the countries food fly, the Obama Administration invested 50 million in research to save the money bee and urging the agriculture and Chemical Industry to develop more beefriendly farming practices. Both insist industry could do more. Without the Fresh Produce honey bees make possible, its not just their health at stake. It could be other own. Aljazeera.

And youll get false instead of rape. Apple seems to not really rock the boat when it debuts new feetures and its the company wanting to have strict control over who does what on an iphone. You can always enter the words manually and get the message across. Were joined now by sarah what the to know from water town massachusetts and from london, michael keller, a reporter from aljazeera. Thank you both for being about us this morning. Examples of words without suggestions for predictive text, is predictive text trying to be virtuous . Virtuous, thats a good question. The feature comes out of potentially embarrassing situations where you might type a word and obviously wouldnt want it to replace what youre trying to say with a swear word or Something Like that. I think the questions are really raised of once you get into words like virtuous, then you ever value judgments and when you have technology making value judgments, not everyone is going to agree with the choices youve made. I think theres value judgments going on here. Technical systems are designed as never neutral, and so there are decisions being made that influenced way we use these tools. Even in this case, its comparable to the way decisions can be made in the app store. Thats something called the contingently jen are a active aspects of what apple allows you to do. I think its very similar in this case, as well. Is there a way to train predictive text to guess what you want it to say . Say for example you do go to weapon sites about marijuana. Will it eventually get it that when you type in mari, you want to type in marijuana . Well, thats certainly what apple said its system does, searches through your history and tries to define the context youre typing, whether a text message or email and it will help you use the words that you generally do in those contexts more easily. I came to this story a little while ago because i was actually working on a project mapping abortion clinics and i was type ago word and i noticed that it wouldnt auto complete it or spell it incorrectly wouldnt suggest the right word. Where i was using that word frequently, it didnt learn and didnt catch on that to have that, which is interesting. Is there a viable argument for these programs limiting speech . So limiting speech is a good question, right . Theres still always the possibility so type in whatever word that it is youre trying to get at. I think whats more kind of insidious about this is that the idea of behind quick type is to take on your voice, and so, the Predictive Technology is actually personalizing to you individually, and i think that relationship between where you fall in the spectrum of this is the word that i would say, perhaps, gets closer to feeling like an imposed pressure on individuals, and with that moral value judgment attached to it. Some would say an invasion of privacy, as well. Sarah watson and fellow at Berkman Center for internet and society and michael keller, reporter with aljazeeras interactive team, thank you so much.
