Im michaela ferrera. Out west those stories and more right now at this hoir. And at this hour, were talking politics, policy, and the law. Theyre all at the center of a raging debate over the crisis at the border. President obama heading to texas this afternoon where he will meet with the governor of texas, republican rick perry. One of his fiercist critics on the immigration issue. He has not scheduled a visit to the boarder to see the crisis firsthand for himself. Tens of thousands of unaccompanied children, mostly from Central America, have been flooding to texas through mexico. We are covering this issue from all angles. We want to begin with our senior white house correspondent. Jim, maybe you can give us, youre probably the closest to the information there. Any update as the president changed his mind, will he head to the border . Reporter not at this point. It doesnt look that way, michae michaela, i think it would be incredible after Top White House officials have said the president is not going to the border on this trip for the president to the go to the border. What he is doing instead is hes going to sit down with Texas Governor rick perry as you said at an event in dallas later on this afternoon. Its going to be a round table discussion featuring faith leaders and other local elected officials in dallas who are talking about converting schools into temporary housing facilities for all of those undocumented children flooding into the United States across the southwestern border. I did talk to a senior white house official earlier this week who is not ruling out a president ial trip to the border, but perhaps at a later time, not during this trip. But i have to say, one of the issues that i think youre going to hear about u up on capitol hill today is the president s trip hes on right now. Hes in denver, giving comments on the economy in about an hour from now. But michaela and john, if you look at the pictures from the president s trip so far. He was playing pool with the governor of colorado last night. Drinking beer, he was shaking hand with a guy with a horses head on his head. You know, there was one person at a bar asking the president if he wanted to smoke pot. And the president is out there in denver having a good time mixing it up. The bear is loose as they call it out here at the white house, but yet hes not making this trip to the border, and i think the optics at some point are going to become a major problem for this president in the same way they were a problem for president bush during Hurricane Katrina when he have flying over the gulf coast instead of getting done there down there, getting on the gulf coast beaches and getting his hands dirty. The president recovered from that from an imanl standpoint, i think the white house has to be very careful here as these optics of the president going loose, you know, his critics may wonder why isnt he loose enough to go down to the border . How will this affect the policy hes after here . The president asking for 3. 7 billion to help fight this crisis at the border. And jim, i was speaking to a democratic congressman this morning, a democrat who was not falling all over himself top support the president and these this 3. 7 billion request. Any question how the white house is doing . I think the white house can see whats happening on capitol hill almost immediately republican lawmakers were say nothing, theyre not going to rubber stamp this request, and they see this request for nearly 4 billion as a blank check. And after hearing that from republican lawmakers, john, as you said, thereve been democrats who said hang on, wait a minute, henry who called this president Obama Katrina was on cnn earlier saying they cant trust whatever the president sends over. They have to look at this appropriations request. This puts the president and the white house in a difficult situation. If they cant get the money aprotorated right away, how are they going to deal with this flood of children coming across the border . They have to be kept somewhere, and according to administration officials, they dont know how long they need to be housed while they go through this immigration frosz. Very difficult situation for this white house. At the white house, thanks so much. As politicians bicker over policy, the lives of tens of thousands of children are in limbo. Waves of underaged immigrants, mostly from Central America are swarming across the southwest border. Federal officials are running out of places to house them. It is a huge and growing problem this year. Some 60 to 80,000 children are expected to cross. Ed lavendandera is in dallas. There are a lot of congratulations, what are the big reasons behind the explosion of numbers . Its such a difficult question to answer, john, i think the biggest miss take you can make in these types of situations is try to just pinpoint one reason for why this happen. Of course there are critics of the Obama Administration who said that the administration and the way its talked about immigration is kind of opened the door for all of this, but you have to take into account the ability of cartels and human smugglers to take advantage of these situations and creating miss information and dispensing miss information to get all that misinformation to get all that. The profit side for these drug traffickers. Weve been told that for Central American migrants coming from the areas that can cost as much as 8,000 per person. If you just crunch the numbers on the situation from them, you can see the profits that are made. Some 50,000 people the u. S. Gochlt says in the recent crisis in this surge have moved in the United States. 50,000 at 8,000 a head is 400 million that human smugglers have profited from this. These are ruthless people who would take advantage of any dined of situation. So i think its very hard to pinpoint it on one reason. I think you have understand that its more complex than that. Especially when you consider the desperation that many people feel. No one reason makes it so hard to fix. In texas, thanks so much. Giving us context into the complexity of this. Its not easy stay or go. No magic wand here. Other stories at this hour, rockets and missiles flying back and forth between israel and gaza today. Israels president said an Israeli Ground defense on gaza may happen quite soon. Palestinian officials report 37 people were killed since monday in israeli strikes. Well have the experts weigh in on this situation on this crisis later at this hour. Dornld sterling set to be back on the witness stand. Challenging his wifes efforts to sell the l. A. Clippers. Sterling gave contentious, often testy testimony yesterday saying this about his wife shelley. My wife cant run anything, she is beautiful, she is intelligent, but she cant run these things. You think its my ego. Sterling teared up at times becoming combative, especially over his mental state. Including a neuroologists of being drunk. Thousands of people dealing with the aftermath of fastmoving and severe storms. Killed at least five people.

He says he still has ringing in his ear and hes feeling body aches, but doctors say he is going to be just fine. Good for him. Oh. That was me yelping by the way, in addition to him. We were all yelping. Yelping. Ahead for us that the hour, one congressman says the Immigration Crisis could become a katrina moment for the president. Is that really fair . Our experts will weigh in.

Im sure that president bush thought the same thing, that he could look at everything from up in the sky and that he did that for a long time. Sop i hope this doesnt become the katrina moment for president obama saying that he doesnt need to come to the border. He should come down. That was Texas Democratic congressman henry cualler. Hes under member was his own party. Heres what former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee says about the president skipping the border. Its like flying into new orleans in the highest waters of katrina to see creole cooking but never getting near the superdome or the Convention Center where thousands languished in squaller. We are joined by skally cone and ross. Let me ask you off the bat, is it even fair to compare this so to katrina . Hundreds of people lost their lives, their homes, their lively hoods, is this a Fair Assessment . This is the nature of american politics, we always compare whatever is happening right now to something that everyone grease was a disaster in the last presidency. So obviously there are big differences, katrina was a specific Natural Disaster that happened in a very short time as hurricanes tend to do. This has been much of a slow building crisis, you know, that child migrations have been increasing over the last three years, theyre spiking now. But i dont think it has the same, i dont thip it has the same resonance for the american people. I think its bizarre that the president isnt going to the border. When youre taking fire from democratic congressmen over the issue, theres no reason to even risk the kind of perceptions that were associated with bush just flying over the disaster area after katrina. And i think its sort of strange feature of this president s entire second term. A weird, sort of disconnection from some of the basic optics of being president. But, yeah. Ross brings up optics. We have to talk about optics, last night the president was out in denver, shooting pool with governor john hickenlooper, having beers there, everyone deserves to have their fun. Is that a picture the white house should be concerned about with this crisis, with this discussion hanging over his head . Look, on the one hand we could have a conversation about every optical moment and choice that this white house has made. Not all of which i would necessarily agree with, but i do think its fascinating they seem to be held to a ridiculously higher standard of oh hes only supposed to do one thing at one time. Theres always crisis. Theres always problems and he has to jug al lot of balls at the same time. Look, this sort of notion of he should be going to the border. Look, if i were this president , i would be going to certainly visit these camps where the kids are being housed and the humanitarian conditions, but the reason to not visit the border is very obvious. This is not a border crisis. These kids are coming to the border, they are getting stopped, the border is working, republicans are trying to turn this into a their ty of oh the border isnt working, we have a crisis. The immigration policies arent working. These kids, this uptick in kids coming from all over the place, to all kinds of countries from Central America has been happening since long before the president started giving immigration access to younger kids. It isnt working, well one could argue it isnt working if you have numbers that were seeing, 70, 80,000 children arriving and then being stuck in a purgatory where conditions are poor. Im not disguying theres not a crisis. But what republicans are saying, its a sign the president has failed to secure the border. Theyre not slipping through homes, its just not happening. But i think that everybody understands when people talk about securing the border, theyre including the system for holding deportation hearings, the system for housing refugees and so on. I think yes, obvious its not, technically a problem with the border patrol, although it is in the sense that theres a since that the agents who are essentially stopping the migrants and taking responsibility for them are being forced to neglect other duties like drug interdiction dropped off during this crisis. There are specific problems that are happening on the border, and then talking about a border crisis, i think reasonably encompasses a lot of the other difficulties were having right now. Where you place the crisis, there is one, and it does need to be discussed. Hopefully the president and rick perry will make headway when they talk. Lets hope they do. Thank you. Before we go, lighter moment in president ial politics and you mentioned a little bit earlier on a fund raising trip to colorado yet. President obama happened to stop by a bar on a boys night out with the states governor. He asked some roort unusual questions. Of course remember, marijuana, legal in the state of colorado. So listen to the offer the president got here. Do you want a hit, man . Do you want to hit this . Now roos, i am ross, do did you hear they are . Were in the postpresidency when he says yes. He understands the optics of the office. Did he owe america an answer to the question, sally . You know, look, i dont even know where to begin here with this, right, like. I think ross is right, at least the white house optically got this one correct. Its clooes not as drugged aled as all the attacks on the president. Those are the people who are smoking up. He took it in good humor, chuckled, kept it pushing. Probably a smart reaction. No right answer to that question. Great president of the United States. I wish i could, but sally, ross, great to have you, appreciate it guys. Thanks guys. Ahead this hour, were talking about women training with ak47s trying to protect their city, thats next. What does an apron have to do with Car Insurance . Every time you tie on an apron, you make progress. And we like that. Because progress is what we make, too. He cadillac summer collection is here. During the cadillac summers best event, lease this 2014 ats for around 299 a month and make this the summer of style. Unidentified bodies, two children, found in the predominantly shiite town of alexandria. Iraqi militias are forming a new defense against them. Women in dag baghdad, wives, daughters, sisters, they are learning how to use an ak47 while the men in their families are on the frontlines. I want to bring in our cnn military analyst. Its interesting to see that, a little different from them taking up arms and joining them on the frontlines. Theyre staying at home and the idea is that theyll be able to protect, should isis infull trait baghdad, what do you make of this . I think this is an assessment, kind of a backhanded assessment of the shia dominated iraqi army, where is it . Theyre out in the field, but evidently these people feel they cant rely on the army. These are militias doing this. They are a long time iranian sponsored group, theyve been there since the 80s and now theyre training twoim protect themselves. They have decided the iraqi army is probably not capable of stopping these guys from getting into baghdad. And you talked about that, that, those 50 bodies. Those were found south of baghdad. It looks like were seeing them go around the city. Theyre trying to surround the city. Worry about a type of street fighting we saw back in 06, 07, thats what i think this lends itself to. The region in turmoil right now, obviously fighting in israel between the Israeli Forces and hamas in gaza. I want you to look at video right now. It is a wedding disrupted due to an air strike, watch this. Thats in israel right now. More than 100 rockets fired out of gaza. The israeli forced responded with air strikes of their own in gaza. Now the israeli president as well as many other leaders there saying a ground offensive on gaza could happen really any minute now. We seen a big esklation in the capabilities of hamas. Used to be they were firing rockets. We were talking about that town near gaza where they would just fire these things five or six miles. Now theyre reaching up 70 miles into israel. And these rockets are provided by the syrians, by the iranians, this is a different capability, and the israelis feel that theyve got no choice, theyre going to have to go in and root these out because 100 missiles, with the iron dome, they cannot knock them all down. What needs to be done in terms of international conversations, international pressure, support, what needs to be done from leaders outside of the region to deescalate this . Theyve tried for years. The problem is you cant get these two to talk. Hamas wont talk to israel because they wont recognize israels right to exist, israel wont talk about talk to anybody who talks to hamas. Theyre threatening relations with the palestinian authorities, you can talk to us, hamas, but not both. Two dwreergs it was egypt that stepped in. Now egypt is in no position. Theres a tragic choreography, hamas shoots missiles, israel with air strikes, ground troops, and it seems like they have to go through it and get it out of the system, you know how many lives have to be lost . Thats the problem. You end up with people losing lives. And the people lives who lost are not the ones making decisions. Exactly. Unfortunately, in gaza, the israelis try to do a good job, ive seen their talk. Theyll say hey, were about to bomb you, get out. They have a reverse 911 system where they call the whole area and say were conducting operations here. But its, its just this cycle of violence that continues. We see this ere two years or so. I was there in 09, in 12, now in 14. And it justin doesnt seem to be a solution on the horizon. And its like both sides have given up. For a solution. They keep rearming themselves. Old issue too. Great to have you here, thank you. Ahead at this the hour, look at these pictures. They were posted on an Online Dating site. Sure look like justin ross harris, the father of the toddler who died after being left for hours in a hot vehicle. One of the things the user posted, quote, im harmless. More information ahead. [ mrs. Hutchison ] friday night has always been all fun and games here at the hutchison household. But one dark stormy evening. There were two things i could tell she needed a good meal and a good family. So we gave her what our other cats love, purina cat chow complete. Its the best because it has something for all of our cats and after a couple of weeks she was healthy, happy, and definitely part of the family. Were so lucky that lucy picked us.

This ensures we can produce Clean Electricity whenever our customers need it. Couple of new developments in the case against the father accused of leaving his toddler son in a hot, georgia car to die. New social media pictures are emerging of justin ross harris. And a profile page for the dating site skout. A user called rj posted three pictures when which appear to be harris. R. J. Describes himself as a married man and wrote, quote just looking to talk. Message me, im harmless. Lets bring in dan shore, hes a formal criminal prosecutor here in new york. Obviously you see Something Like this, we saw the text that he was sending to six women, including one teenager. We saw those last week. You see this today on the dating site. You know, its unseemingly very, unseemly, when does it go from unseemly and making this guy look bad to being, making him more copable for this kind of murder . It makes a tragic, disturbing case even more upsetting that a father besides leaving his kid in the car, sexting. Its more evidence he wanted a change. He looked online about having a childfree life. Its more evident showing that. Is this the make or break evidence for the murder charge . Now no, but its something theyll use. Interesting that his wife, leanne in a harris finally visiting him today in jail. I think theres video of it. Obviously you want to be a fly on the wall of that conversation. Theyve been watching her as well. Yet we havent heard anything about whether she is considered a suspect, if shes going to be put under arrest. I think about that relationship, and again, theres some unseemly things there too about this relationship they had. How far into that relationship will investigators dig . Very, im sure theyre looking at her to charge her if they can find anything showing she helped out. Based on the public information, its not enough to charge her, but for an acting in concert theory, you only need a little bit, encouragement. She may be subpoenaed to testify a trial about their conversations. Theres no spousal immunity in georgia when a child death or injury is involved. These may be the source of information. Good idea or bad idea for her to visit now . On the one hand, you have to be careful, but on the other, you know if she is called to testify as a character witness for her husband, you know, someone could say if you love him, why didnt you visit him in prison . I think visiting him by itself is not a huge deal. What she said is the key. If shes called as a character witness, i dont think thatll help. Having your wife say youre a good father leaving your kid in a car all day to die isnt going to help him. Are they monitoring these conversations and what kind of information can they get from her . Theres been some made conversation, conversation made of the fact that they had bought a new, forwardfacing, lets see if i get it right, forwardfacing car seat because he grew too big. Big baby. But they used instead of rear facing one. A lot is being made of that. Are they trying to speak to intent here about maybe not having the baby face the front where he could be seen . Thats possible. All these little facts piece together the total situation. We know he was left in the car. The question is what was in the mind of the father and maybe the mother . Every piece of information goes to show his intent. Importantly though, the murder charge isnt based on intent, its based on criminal negligence which means a gross deviation from the standard of care a normal person would use. So far. So far. But thats murder based on criminal intelligence based on felony murder. Prosecutors dont have to prove intent, they can later add charges that are based on intentional murder. The only thing more complicated than the case in general is car seats. You never know why families use one thing or another. It should be two full years before rear facing to front facing. Theyre trying to piece together any case they can. Along those lines, toxicology results. They tested the kid, nothing unusual in coopers system. Do you think that helps or hurts him . Theyre trying to see if he was drugged, and if he wasnt, that doesnt show further guilt by the defendant, however he left his son in a car all day, we know about his internet searches. He went to the car in the middle of the day where he presumably would have seen the child and made questionable statements right after that seemingly are inconsistent with someone who innocently found out their child died. Theres a lot of evidence. Its interesting to look at it from your perspective, get your take on all of this. Well watch this case obviously on cnn, dan shore, thanks for joining us today. Ahead at this hour, a record breaking experiment. Living 31 days underwater for glory, but mostly science. A feat undertaken by the grandson of explorer. He sang with the hollywoods, oh and maybe another group youve heard of. Graham nash joins us in studio next. Jake and i have been best friends for years.

The former mayor of new orleans just sentenced to ten years in prison. He was convicted on federal corruption charges. Mostly relating to kickbacks from contractors for city work. Ten years in jail, in prison for the mayor, of course we were talking about katrina. A face many people remember from that crisis. He was found guilty in february on 20 counts as you mentioned most relating to kickbacks. Throughout it he denied the charges and maintained his innocence. More coming up on cnn throughout the day here. Right now, the 60s, lets talk about the 60s, time of rebellion, beatles rock stars will long hair, bell bottoms here and there. They took the u. S. By storm. Yeah, obviously though. So many great, wonderful groups beyond the beatles, stole the heart of so Many Americans then, and i have so say for decades after. All right, we are so lucky right now to have a legend with us in the at this hour studio. Guitar. Song writer, legend, graham nash who is british from england. Were talking about the british did you have to say it like that . I want to tell people, just to clarify, hes not actually american, although yes you are a citizen now. Been a citizen for over 30 years. You invaded then stayed. I wanted to be a part of this country. This is one of the greatest countries in the world. I mean the people just want the same as we do in england. They want their kids to have a better life than they do did. They want peace and freedom, i love america, i came here, climbed the nearest palm tree in 1965 and said im not leaving. We were just talking to lulu yesterday, and she was talking about the fact that she grew up with a great influence of american music. But when we think about music and the United States, we certainly think about the music that youve been part of. Such an integral part of the 60s, you probably think about it from time to time, youve lived many adecade. When you think back on just sort of a one fad of the 60s, what stands outs . The kids of the day realize that they had a certain a. Power. If they all came together and spoke with one voice. It started at woodstock to a sen extent. Half a Million People and three days with very little violence. And i think thats, i think the spirit and the hope of the times was what i remember from the sixties. We talks about the british invasion, you were a member of the hollys. But with the hollys, its so interesting, listen to the music, its poppy, sing songy, harmonies, by the end, especially the songs you were writing, very socially conscious. That was my, that was david and steven and neil young and mitchells influence on me as a song writer. In the hollys by the time i left, we had 15 top ten hits, but they were like make love to me in the back of the car kind of songs. When i met david and steven and david had written about the assassination of Robert Kennedy and steven written for what its worth for the riots in los angeles. I began to realize there was more important stuff to say. And my song writing started to change. So today, looking at the world we live in, still many issues and crisis that are happening, we also seen the confluence of technology and, you know, activism with the twitter paying a part in which we look at the arab spring even here at home weve seen people, is the passion there in our youth today as it was . Absolutely. Dont forget, the smallest action can change the world. Right. You were speaking about the arab spring, mohammad who was this seller of vegetables on a cart was insulted by the police and struck in the face in front of his family and humiliated. He burned himself to death. Hell never know what he started. He started the arab spring, hell never know because hes not here. I should stipulate, im a huge fan of crosby. I picked up on that. Stipulate that, lay it out here just so were all clear, im not impartial in this discussion. You have a new project out. Csny 74. Thats right. Explain. We did 31 shows, average audience of 80,000 people. It was the first tour ever of that kind. You know, the beatles had done chase stadium here in new york and stones had done big gigs in high park in london, but this was the first tour we multitracked nine of those shows and i spent four years of my life putting together an incredible csny concert and it came out yesterday. I went straight to number one on amazon. Congratulations. In the first day. Thats amazing. That is amazing. Thats 14r5 years later for god sakes. You should think about song writing far career. I dont think so. Im a great window cleaner. Okay, heres the question, whos on your ipod . You know people always want to know who the greats are listening to. The truth is for the last four years, ive been involved in our music. Good for you, yeah. We just, ive been recording csn for 40 odd years. And we just won the right to, those things did not, the Record Company did not own them. They owned the albums that we delivered and were paid for, fine, but our private recordings, they finally figured out that we own them. Ive been devilling into this rediscovering them. Hall of fame twice, not once, but twice. Seems like every decision you made worked out perfectly, however, if you could go back to the time of the british invasion and tell a little bit younger graham nash what to do differently, what would your advice be . Not so much cocaine. Id say thats solid advice. Good advice. But you seem like youve weathered it all well. I still have a brain. I was never an addicted person, i took, when david was in the depth of his drug madness, you try various things, tried taking no drugs, more drugs than david, and it didnt work. Until he walked barefoot into fbi office in miami, thats when i knew that he had chosen life over death. And that was great. Many of your dear friends go, including one of your closest friends, david. Absolutely. But hes alive and kicking. He is. Nash, i cant tell you what a privilege. I dont to want embarrass them, but crew guys have been excited. They play music, although they act like they dont know how to now. Stop by and say hi, graham, thanks for joining us. What a delight.

I mean, youre still underwater. Joining us to talk about this experience, the man himself, up for air, good, clean outdoor air. He didnt grow gills i said. Good to see you both. Its almost like living in new york city, except that your neighbors are fish. I suppose there wasnt a lot of fish on the menu. All jokes aside, this was a big deal, you wanted to bring awareness to conservation. Did you feel like you were able to succeed . I think we had goals of reaching 331 Million People, and as of the metrics of june 159, at least as far as suppress concerned, weve reached over 500 Million People. On that level, it was a success and hopefully on the science it will be, we did three years of science and Data Collection in just 31 days. Amazing. What supervised you about being underwater for that long . What surprised me is how i and my team were able to adapt and be able to live down there comfortably in a very tight environment as you can imagine, because most of the time we spent out in the water to go explore. More importantly than that, i felt almost secluded and kind of became our own Little Community down there. And we didnt really Pay Attention to what was going on topside. Besides the cramped space, i understand that at one point, the airconditioning decided not to work. Yeah, joking aside, the air conditioner, when it goes on the frits, which it did, it gets 100 humidity, 98 degrees in a very small little tube if you will. And it was cooler to go jump in the water in the ocean than it was to sit in that particular place. How important was this for you personally . You know, your grandfather set up a lab himself. What did it mean for you . It was a really, really complex endeavor. Took two years to do. A lot of folks didnt think it could happen. And besides all that, it did, and it was a huge success. To me, the success, not only of making it happen, but being able to connect the world in realtime for the first time in an expedition was phenomenal. Beyond 31, such as the florida Ocean Learning center that were going to be building to continue in that particular. One of the things it you wanted to do was talk to school children, any of the kids that got to skype with you, im sure that was the highlight of their school year. It was the highlight of my time down there. Theyre energy was so amazing. Its infectious. It reminds you of the importance of what youre doing. Get them fired up about conservation as well and let them understand the world below them often times. Maybe some of them will be in the future. Tell your boys about it. I think. Sounds dramatic. Its great to have you back. Great to have you back above sea level. Ahead at this hour, he rarely responds to tabloids, but george championny is now slamming a british paper over what he is calling an irresponsible story. Plus the surprise breakout star from espn magazines body issue, a lot of people got naked here, very, very naked. Well tell you why, next. When you run a business, you cant settle for slow. Thats why i always choose the fastest intern. The fastest printer. The fastest lunch. Turkey club. The fastest pencil sharpener. The fastest elevator. The fastest speed dial. The Fastest Office plant. So why wouldnt i choose the fastest wifi . I would. Switch to comcast Business Internet and get the fastest wifi included. Comcast business. Built for business. George clooneys mad, oh, hes mad. The actor director wrote a scathing oped fighting back at the daily mail. Beyond upset after that online paper published an article saying his future motherinlaw does not approve of his engagement with her daughter for religious reasons. We have the dream team here. We do, dont we. To discuss the fury. Nischelle turner and Senior Correspondent brian, what did clooney say about this . This is interesting, because clooney does not talk about his personal life much. He will talk if you see him on the red carpet. But if you ask about his personal life, ask his reps, never any comment. For him to compae out and write this oped, its a big deal. I think the part that really made him upset was because they said in their religion, they joked about sometimes the bride being killed. That i think set him off because of his fiance. Heres what he said in response to this article in the daily mail. He said, first of all, none of the story is factually true. Amalls mother is no druid. She is in no way against the marriage. Im of course used to the daily mail making up stories. They do it several times a week and i dont care. He then goes on to say, but this lie involves larger issues. The irresponsibility of this day andable to exploit religious differences where none exist is dangerous. We have family members all over the world and the idea someone would inflame any part of of that world for the sole reason of selling papers should be criminal. George clooney is not playing when it comes to this. I think the daily mail is responding because theyre saying, okay, were taking it down. They said theyll investigate and look into it. Do you think, brian, this be will have any impact on how they conduct business, on how they do their story telling . In two words, unfortunately not. But to see them delete the article within hours, that almost never happens shows the power of George Clooney. Says more about George Clooney than it does about them. If the article was about any of us, they wouldnt take it down right away. In this case they should take it down if anybody was maligned in this way. Its interesting they say theyll investigate this and yet theyve already apologized. We take mr. Clooney on his word that this story is inaccurate so were going to take it down. They say the journalist talked to one person who had also talked to other people so this was like a terrible game of telephone. You see the response George Clooney was able to get. What do you think other big celebrities are thinking now . Clooneys done this, hes fought back the first time we do see celebrities fighting back. About a year or so ago, saw tom cruise fight back against a published story saying he had abandoned his daughter. Hes saying thats the line you dont cross and im suing you. He settled. He won that because he did not abandon his daughter. When these tabloid papers cross them, they do take action. There is Something Else that came out of this story, guys, thats kind of buried in this. George clooney finally confirmed hes getting married. He never i thought i just missed it. No, he said my fiance. The marriage we know George Clooney getting married. How about that . There is an official response from the daily mail, right . We were talking about it, how they said this was not a fabrication, they are going to investigate, but they do believe George Clooney when he says this was all a lie. So theyre going to take taking it down. Theres a term for this called sources going direct. Sources have more power to go direct to the public. Writing an oped for usa today by George Clooney is an example of that. He could have gone on twitter or facebook and done this. Well see more examples of this, of celebrities and ordinary people going direct if they feel theyve been wronged. Clooney says, look, my dads a newsman, i get it. He understands the importance of good journalism. He says there are certain lines you dont cross. When you mess with his soon to be family, he doesnt like that. Professors. You quoted academia here so why not. Hes the man, im just the girl standing i want to show you some pictures blowing up on the interweb. The old interweb is just a flury today. The espn body issue. I am so stoked. This picture right here you may recognize that man. Usually you probably see him with clothes on. Texas ranger prince fielder. Everyone talking about it. Just 511 kwch. He bared it all. He said being big does not mean you cannot be athletic. You can pick up six different covers of the magazine. Besides fielder, youll see michael phelps, venus williams, mar shawn lynch, jamie anderson, the man who is the best name in the nba. That issue hits newsstands friday. Youre against it, im for it. I think its naked people. Its naked athletes who are being naked. Way more than that. Dont be ashamed of your body, john articles to go along with the naked people more diversity to go along with the issue. Thats a very good point. Prince fielder its celebrating the body. It does make us all want to go to the gym. Heading there right now. Celebrate bodies with a little bit clothing. Now, a funny moment on late night tv courtesy of david letterman. Watch this from last night and then well show you how our own Fredricka Whitfield inspired this bit of comedy. So so where you from . Ill just take over. Talk to me. That was joan rivers being funny at least then. Before, not so much. Because this moment was inspired by an appearance on cnn newsroom with Fredricka Whitfield where joan rivers just walked off.

The president asking congress for billions. But is money the answer to this humanitarian disaster . Plus, reenacting a toddlers last breath.
