Goalie. The former world cup goalkeeper soccer over talks the next hour. First lets get headlines. Thank you. Barclays is in legal hot seat being sued over allegations they gave traders unfair advantage. Eric schneiderman is accusing the bank of falsifying marketing materials. In after the bell earnings, they are tumbling. This after the home good retailer profit fell. The u. S. Economy shrank 2. 9 in the first quarter. That is more than forecast. The worst reading in five years. Gdp was hurt by a slowdown in health care spending. Now to the big aereo decision. Ruling. Supreme court it violates the copyrights of broadcasters. It is a setback for aereo and aereo only. Before therguing Supreme Court was to mislead the core into thinking that we were going to be hurting consumers. What the consumer gets is the highest Quality Programming which costs a lot of money to produce. He will continue to get that. Takingea was doing was our technology and selling it to the consumer. The decisioned to by saying the decision by the United States of print court is a massive setback for the american consumer. Lets get more insight on the decision. Joining me from washington is gordon smith, of the National Association of broadcasters. And miller baker, eight partner. T mcdermott will and emery joining us from San Francisco is mitch stoltz at the Electronic Frontier Foundation Part of the team that supported aereos position. Lets start with you mitch. What are the next steps . It is not clear what the next steps are. They have some options. The bigger question is what the other is going to have on internet technologies, especially should remain technologies. Gordon smith, come in on this decision. Tell us what it means. If you have a new technology you are not exempt from copyright law. But the Supreme Court did is stand by the principle of the United States constitution that requires those who would take the intellectual property of others to deal with them, to do business with them. Cable was subject to copper then a new Technology Comes along and they were subject to copyright. Aereo comes along and tries to build a model that exempts them from dealing with the creators of this content. The Supreme Court said you cannot do that. Whacks come in on the decision. It was 63. What does that tell you about the future litigation around streaming of content . The court was clear in the opinion to limit the holding in this case to these facts. Toy went out of their way make it clear that this decision would not necessarily apply to another set technology. Or different technology. Theill have to wait until next case. On these facts with these technologies, this is a violation of the copyright act. The rulingoltz, is specific enough to let other Technology Take the lead . Not specific enough. It uses a lot of weasel words like saying area was similar to isle, that aereo primarily customers primarily pay for the privilege of watching video. Words like similar and primarily our individuals to litigation are imitations to litigation. Is that consistent with your view . It is not. Aereo still has a Business Case to make. They have to comply with the copyright laws of the country. This is aoadcasters, business decision. I am an advocate. They will be happy to visit with a aereo about some way forward. But it isnt to evade the law of copyright. It is to respect that so that you do not damage creators as you develop new technology. I think the future is open. Copyright law is settled and satisfied in this country. If you were advising aereo, what suggestions would you offer . So im not their lawyers dont have any invites invites for them. I thought they were going to lose this case. It seems this was identical to what congress sought to prevent when it amended the copyright act in 1976 to apply copyright protection to Cable Television transmissions. Before that the copyright act had been interpreted by the Supreme Court to allow cable broadcasters to retransmit broadcast television. Congress said no, we dont want that. We want to make sure that this transmit of material is protected by the copyright act. The court said there is no material distinction between a Cable Television producer or transmitter and what aereo is doing. I dont have any advice for area other than to reevaluate their business model. How Many Americans could conceivably be affected by this ruling . How many receive television and video using an antenna . Using aereo . I think it is one or 2 of americans. I dont know how big aereo Customer Base was. This potentially affects any consumer who might want to have new ways of accessing over the air broadcast television in the future. With the Supreme Court decision said was that a new business cant rely on the words of the copyright act. Of the law essentially got thrown out to be replaced by this vague notion of you can do something that kind of feels like cable. Aereodon smith, was trying to use a loophole that existed in order to provide service . It was a pay service. That theylear to me thought there was a loophole. We did not see the loophole. I would simply correct the whord, the number of people get television over the air isording to a recent study 19 . 60 million americans who count , ander the air broadcast the content they produce is very valuable, and if someone wants to pick that up and charge someone else for it, they are required to deal with the copyright holders. That is what was upheld today. Disallow new technology. It simply says new technology has to obey copyright law. Thank you very much for joining me. They q2 gordon smith of the National Association of broadcasters. Coming up, u. S. Officials say the integrity of iraq is being threatened. Sunnis gain in the uprising. Coming up, what the secretary of said defense what is the secretary of defense do . And, william cohen. That is next. This is taking stock. Im pimm fox. Former Vice President dick comments on charlie rose. Was not a flawless war but i have never seen one that was. I dont hesitate to defend what we did. We can argue about it. Different people have different views. Watch the former vice interview here at 8 00 eastern. For more, lets go to washington. Cohen serve the istagon, and currently executive of the cohen crgroup. What would you be telling the u. S. To do right now . Them what be telling the president is telling them right now. Get as much intelligence as possible. Try to persuade the Iraqi Government they have to change. Either a change at the leadership level or to have some kind of a combination where you bring the kurds and the sunnis in to an inclusive government. Ed is going to be difficult to do. The kurds feel fairly a taunus. They have little incentive to hold the country together. South aren the satisfied that where their situation is. That leaves the middle, engaged in a civil war. The first thing that has to be done, tell the iraq you leadership they have to change. Whether that means mr. Maliki has to step down, and indicate he is ready to govern in a much more democratic powersharing manner. If he does not do that i dont think any military force exercise by the United States or others that will resolve the issue. The sunnis will continue to wage war against the shia majority and we will see a civil war that will be destabilizing to the entire region. Ofgive us your perspective what is going on in syria and how that connects with events in iraq. Isis are the most extreme form of al qaeda. Areas. Ve taken key they are seeking to establish a caliphate that runs through iraq and beyond. Aresyrian government starting to attack isis. Arequestion is, they attacking sunni militia whether they are isis or rebels launching an attack upon assad. Assad would like to bomb those areas, whether they are isis or not, to weaken the forces against him. Syrias playing a role. Iran. Re supported by it is all tied together. As tot is your estimate the iranian influence and events . I ran has played a major role in supporting maliki in iraq. A decliningite state but close to it. When Saddam Hussein was taken out for the most heart the buffer against iranian expansion in the region was removed. Now we have a situation with the shia majority. They have appealed to their narrow sectarian interests. You have a civil war brewing. Thats threatening to spill over to other areas as well. Jordan in a difficult situation with a flood tide of refugees. You have other elements of al qaeda on the borders. Very careful to make sure isis doesnt try to expand their operations into the kingdom. This is serious. Iran is beyond supporting the shia majority, and supporting assad in. Another potential civil war in the ukraine. Vladimir putin, mommy Russian Parliament to retake the authority of imposing any Russian Military insider the ukraine. The separatist down a recent ukraine government helicopter. What is going on there . There was a former attorney general back in the days of watergate. He said watch what we do and not what we say. President putin is saying the right things at this moment. I dont think it is being matched with his actions. Until such time as we see a much more substantive effort being made by president putin, we have to assume the rebels are going to launch the attacks against the Ukrainian Government under the quiet support of president putin. Sanctions should be intensified. That means it is going to require the european members to step up as well because it cant be just the United States imposing more sanctions. The europeans are not joining in those tighter sanctions or tougher sanctions and the United States risks acting euro lateraling, and the Business Community is going to reject that or reason that. It is going to be ineffective if on the United States is imposing sanctions. It is time for europeans to step up. Either were all in this together or we are not. If they are backing off this, it ongoing to have an impact the transatlantic relationship. This is one where russia has violated a key element of stability throughout europe. No military aggression against another state. They have done that. The europeans have to speak up and take leadership. Thank you very much for speaking. The chief executive of the cohen group. The Clinton Global Initiative starting today. Some top leaders are gathered to fight Economic Solutions to the nations ills. The formern with president , bill clinton, who for new world is ripe gauges of economic success. , the whole world is in a race whether they are conscious of it or not, to defend the terms of our interdependence. Ins say iraq is broken up this horrible thing that is going on. The land is not going anywhere. The big chunks of population are more or less going to be where they are. What this struggle is, and other example of people struggling to define terms of their interdependence, and will they be positive or negative, cooperative, or conflicting. That is a we have to do. We have to make it work. I would rather be us than any other country on earth. Solve the immigration issue, keep our workforce young, continue to improve our education, get back in the business of skills training, but dont say it is either or, the real problem we have with Vocational Training starting in the 1960s when i was going through it is that if you were going to go to college, you wanted to get out of shop and not a mechanics as quick as you could.

I want you to just explain to people who may not be following go pro, this is a company that is trying to be more than just a camera maker. The camera is interesting. Baseball sized camera that and is virtually indestructible. I have seen them bounced off all kinds of things. When the earth is smoldering they will find where the go pros of surfers have lost. They have taken a big position in the extreme sports world. They are trying to move beyond that into being a media company. A go pro channel and using videos of these incredible video , oftenth these cameras mountain on helmets, taking these and using it as a Marketing Tool with a go pro channel on cable, even on virgin america. Soy are using the media not much to make money in the traditional way that media makes money on television but as a marketing devise for their cameras. Come in on the conversation.
